Study Break!

...by which I mean in a few minutes I'll take a break out of my procrastinating and actually do some studying. (Just kidding.)

I have, as usual, been forgetting all my good intentions to post more useless natter on the Great Interwebz, which I mean to rectify now.
I'm not going to attempt to list everything I've done since the last post way back in October, I'll just suffice it to say that Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's were all lovely and 2011 and I are going to be friends whether 2011 likes it or not.

Some things I've been thinking about lately are applications for a boat job this coming summer, clothes, taking the SAT, doing college applications and generally just getting things done that I should have started forever ago.
The clothes part is just a continuation of my perpetual resolution to "dress more creatively" which I follow with varying degrees of success.
The college apps/SAT bit is a little more pressing.
The seeking of a boat job is also pressing, perhaps even more so than college applications, because then if my academic career plummets I'll at least have a job with meals and a berth provided. I mean, a hammock isn't much, but it's better than nothing. Except I've been told that not all ships make their crews sleep in hammocks. AMAZING. So I'll have meals and a bunk. Or maybe even a shared cabin, if it's super deluxe.

And with that, I'm off to insert my nose into a book again.
