Currently watching the South Carolina primary...God forbid Newt actually wins. South Carolina should seriously reconsider its original secession plans after its decision tonight to inflict more Newt Gingrich on us. Heavens. Also, is anyone else uncomfortable by the fact that Romney used the word 'appeasement' in his defeat speech? I feel like as a politician that isn't the word I'd use, given it's Nazi Germany connotations. #awkward. I think it's going to be interesting for me, as a liberal, to try and come to terms with the more or less inherently implicit Conservative values of the armed forces. Well, maybe that's too big of a generalization; I'm not entirely sure, and I'll admit that my knowledge of the armed forces at this point is limited. I'm hoping to learn more, and eventually hope to become more open-minded. Yet I do think it's going to be somewhat challenging. I'm worried that I might not fit in with some of the people that I'm going to meet through John. I hope I do. I want to be able to support him as much as I humanly can. And I think that this entire experience will be a good one for me. I just hope that I can do it, and do it well. I want to.
I feel like a bum sitting around on a Saturday night, but going out in Michigan during the winter is just so much hassle. Not only is it FRIGID (it's apparently around 15 degrees...), but there's so much snow, and I don't want to hike all the way to Fiji in heels and a skirt with little to no jacket. I was so gung-ho to go out at every opportunity last semester...I don't know if the change is the weather, or if I'm just a little burnt out. Even going to the bar on a Tuesday or Thursday sounds exhausting. I'm so content to just be sitting around right now watching the primary, maybe watch a little Curb Your Enthusiasm, and drink hot chocolate. I may go out and meet up with Leah and Andi in a little bit, depending on what it is they want to do, and I 'm hoping to see John when he's done with his Rush stuff around 10pm.
