| Sorry guys, it's been nuts! And I forgot my xanga password for a while there. Weird, I know. Anyway, I have a final in 17 minutes, so here's the news:
I'm engaged. Since last night.
Okay, I love ya, bye.
Oh, and yes, it's Ethan.

| I created this this morning... please read it, even if you don't play. Tell me what you think..
Hmmm....
World of Warcraft is its name,
We are so glad that it came.
You can play it without shame,
Just remember your own name!
In the tree Teldrassil,
There the night has its will.
As the moonlight filters still,
The Night Elves lounge there on the hills.
Mulgore is full of ancient lore,
You can see it through every door.
Be careful as you ponder days of yore,
Or you'll be slaughtered by pesky boars.
In Trisfal Glades there is a place,
Which used to have a true great race.
They were just and very chaste,
Now most of them have no face!
Elwynn, Elwynn, it is a forest,
Where many have been there right before us.
The paladins there always implore us,
To fight in just, swift, and holy chorus.
There is a place called Durotar,
For some it isn't very far.
The people there believe in war,
Because their lives have been so hard.
Loch Modan is covered in snow,
More than we could possibly know.
Dwarves and Gnomes there do roam,
At least they like their ice-cold home!
Druids just recently came,
From a place which called their name.
Don't harass, or they will maim,
Claw, and tear you with their fangs.
Hunters track both man and beast,
They befriend the last to say the least.
Some would say they're very weak,
Until they fall to large, white teeth.
Rogues don't really like to fight,
They stalk instead in dead of night.
They take pains to avoid the light,
They kill with stealth instead of might.
Warlocks show no remorse,
For the demons they call forth.
They cast and kill then laugh so hoarse,
Many take to avoid of course.
Warriors are not so bright,
They bash, and kill, and stalk and fight.
It's no wonder so many have died,
However, blood always splashes upon their knife.
Shamans are the only caretakers,
Of things which are mystical in nature.
Totems are their one main feature,
Destroy them fast or you'll need a preacher.
Priests are the healing makes,
We beg for them to join our ranks.
We cover them with lots of tanks,
So they don't fall for foolish sakes.
No one messes with a mage,
Who calls down fire and lots of rage.
From them we all just keep our pace,
And just watch them and be amazed.
Paladins are soldiers of the Book,
It's memorized and they never look.
They carry it around with one large hook,
At least we know they're not forsook!
Enjoy...

| So it's quickly approaching Christmas break here at NWC. However, I'll still be working through the break. *Sigh* Oh well, I'm grateful for it, and if I work now, there won't be so much over the break. My Christmas break is going to be packed too. Ethan, Jim, and I are heading up to Minnesota for a few days to hang out with Elayna in Minneapolis. I'm going to Chicago at some time with the Kensaks, heading home sometime, going to a wedding, and then finishing it off with drill... yippee!
I'm feeling a little better finally, but I still have a road ahead of me. I'll get through it.
Let's see...
According to a test I took on xanga, I'm 46% nerd... compared to my roommate's 16%. She's still a nerd.
The expansion for World of Warcraft comes out on Jan. 16! Woot!
I love hockey jerseys.
The network at school doesn't work very well, so I don't get to play World of Warcraft very often.
I have a lot of papers to write for most of my classes.
We're singing Latin Christmas carols in my Latin class.
Almost done with my school's gen ed requirement for foreign language. However, I'm continuing my education with German and taking the extra classes.
My favorite thing about languages is I understand them (linguistical aspect, not necessarily vocab) quickly.
We dyed Julie's hair purple.
I have a hint of purple in my hair.
Julie went Goth to the formal dance last night.
Ich habe Deustch Prufung morgen.
I've started an awesome series about supernaturals (namely werewolves) by Kelley Armstrong).
Umm... other than that... not much... but that's a lot anyway.

Quote of the (random time, you can pick):
Scruff: "Once you go black, you never go back."
Me: "That's what I'm talkin' about. Why do you think Ethan's dating me?"
Scruff: "Yeah my sista."
Scruff and I talking about relationships.
Jill: "Maggie, do you remember Gina?"
Maggie: "Yes."
Jill: "Gina lives on my wing with me."
Maggie: "She lives in your... room?"
Jill: "No, she lives in a different room, but we live on the same floor."
Maggie: "But Gina lives in MY house!"
Jill, a girl on my wing, who is Maggie's (Dr. Kensak's five year old daughter) student teacher talking with Maggie one day at school.

Since I haven't written in a while, I thought I'd write and tell what's going on. I'm doing better, but I'm not great yet. Things have been crazy lately. Because I've been dealing with a lot of stuff, the college is letting me take incompletes in some of my classes with all homework and tests to be completed six weeks at the end of the semester. That takes some pressure off my shoulders and helps a lot. For Thanksgiving I'm heading with Ethan's family to Des Moines for two days and then heading back with them for Thanksgiving at their house on Friday. It'll be fun. For Christmas break I'm staying with the Kensaks as I finish up my homework. Dr. Kensak and I's deal is he teaches me Latin, I teach him French. Over Christmas break I'm heading to Chicago with the Kensaks and then to Minneapolis with Ethan, Jim, and Elayna.
Well, that's what's up,
Gina

| Some news... some of this may scare some of you... it's okay...
I don't care anymore... about much of anything... supreme apathy.... about school, life, homework, (although I do still love people)...
I really don't care...
I'm home until Wednesday for drill... yippee
I sleep a lot
I'm falling apart
I have new hockey jerseys... yay...
I have class until 10 tonight
Halloween rocked... I took Marcus and Maggie trick or treating...
Yeah, can't think of anything else... later.
Gina
