Eve of the Final Final

Okay, well tomorrow I have my last final. I really only had two finals and this would be my second one. So I'm not going to complain because I know a lot of people had it much worse. I also have a paper due tomorrow. I just need to revise my draft so it's no big deal.

I should really be going over my notes and working on my essay. Too bad I have the attention span of a fly surrounded by Christmas lights. And I just got back from a poker night at Bruce's. Haven't played in a while, but I made a few moves. Thanks Bruce, I needed some fun!


So right now instead of doing anything productive, I'm watching a movie called Love Actually. It's an old favorite of mine that I watch every holiday season. It takes place in London around December. My favorite thing about it is that it is an ensemble piece which tells the story of like 12 people and they're experiences with love during Christmas time. They are all connected and the plots are interwoven so the characters run into each other throughout the movie. It has got pretty much all the big stars from Britain. So this is like the perfect movie for me because I like everything about it: love, Christmas, connections, British people, and Keira Knightley!


So I guess I better get back to work, ey? Wish me luck and I'll see you soon!

The moon is awfully big and bright tonight so I guess I'll dedicate tonight's poem to the moon.

Ode to the Moon
The moon is highest at midnight
It makes a shadow against the ground
Perhaps if you stare into the moonlight
The things you lost might be found
What do you see in the dark sky?
Does my silhouette glow faintly?
Don't you ever wonder why
I call to you so blatantly?
You may think you've escaped your fate
But the moon will reveal your sin
Maybe you will be too late
Who would want you then?
The moon is telling you to act
Before it's too late to go back
