broked car

So! As you may have gathered from my gchat status a couple days back, I am having car troubles. The transmission needs replacing, which will cost about $1200, which just under half the worth of the car. I don't need this in my life. Right now it still gets me from A to B, with occasional bouts of crap this is hard to drive with a bent shaft! As long as it stays that way until I move to Princeton, it'll be ok, I think. I won't need a car so much then...

If it breaks down before then, I'll have a decision to make I guess.

I'm really excited about moving to Princeton, but there are a few ways it could go wrong. We'll see.

I signed up to take the GRE on Tuesday, July 27th, thinking that would force me to study. As it is I continue to forget, and haven't studied much at all (except for the much part). I only need to cover the verbal, math, and writing parts, though. Whew! Looks like easy times ahead.

This leads me into today's mishap: I'm the new assistant secretary for the Dartmouth club of Princeton (this wasn't the mishap), and my first duty was to survey the members about their preferred dates for the next meeting, and then let everyone know what the consensus was. Step one, good. Step two, I was really proud of how I included the date and time clearly in the subject line and in the email itself. Go me, until I get a reply two minutes later telling me the 7th is a Wednesday, not a Monday, and asking could I please confirm the date again. D'oh. Anyway, expect a post sometime after Monday, July 12th telling y'all how my first minute-taking went.

Here's another survey: Is it likely for a girl named Pilar to be called "Pilly"?

Last of all for now: I like how Fei says indeedio. What a great way to start off being 24.
