Alack!

I actually have no real reason to be saying the word alack, but I so love the word alack that I must use it con frecuencia.



As you can tell, I've been trying to reenergize my Spanish brain, as I'll be immersing myself into a Spanish environment coming next week. I'm probably going to "borrow" one of the Spanish grammar books here over the weekend so that I can bone up on my verbs and subjunctive rules.



Technically, we're not allowed to take out books, but since I'm a tutor and no one's going to be using the books anyways between now and Monday, I figure it's not that serious. I open on Monday, anyways.



I'm getting somewhat excited for the start of a new semester. Somewhat, because I have no idea what to expect in most of my classes. Generally, I've had some expectations of what is to come. For example, I have heard nothing but wonderful things about my Spanish teacher.

Ok, so this was from this morning, but after my boss came in it was work work work most of hte morning. We had our first open house for the regents, and mainly bigwig figures of the university, and not too many were pleased to come in. Over 150 people were sitting there and we only had 20 come in; however, I did get to give a brief tour to one of the state legislators. I have no idea who he was, but I gave him one.

Tomorrow is my sister's last day in CO for a while as she goes off to college on Saturday. It's pretty weird knowing how much older we're all getting.

I wish I had something useful to say, but I just don't. At least, nothing that I can post in a public realm, considering that what I say on here might come back and bite me in the butt.

Sigh.
