First of all, I have really been wanting to watch the original Star Wars trilogy. I have been wanting to since shortly after I got here. (I am guessing it was because I was playing LEGO Star Wars, but now my charger won't work, so I can't play and I am having Star Wars withdrawal.) It really didn't help that I woke up the other day, looked out my window, and felt like Luke Skywalker when he crashes in that bog after that Hoth battle. It was all foggy/smoggy out, and I couldn't even see Cerro San Cristóbal from my window.

One thing I do have with me for reviewing are the readings from my Spanish American literature class. I got on ICON yesterday, and I started re-reading some of the stories. I felt kinda nerdy for going back and re-reading things from school, but at the same time, I really kind of liked some of those stories. Besides, I had to remind myself what the word for bat was. (It's murciélagos, in case you were wondering.) I still think my favorite story from that class was Monterroso's El dinosaurio. (It used to be considered the shortest short story, but now that title goes to El inmigrante by Luis Filipe Lomelí. I quite enjoy this microcuento as well.)
I also miss debate sometimes. I do enjoy reading Melanie's status updates that let know her kids records and about her aff voting streak. I was kind of hoping it was going to last all season, but I knew it wouldn't. It is really weird for me to not be surrounded by debate right now, and I feel really left out of it all. I don't even know what the LD topic is right now.
Peace and Love
