Claire Told Me to Blog, So, Enjoy

This week has been entirely insane. Its low point was when I called my mother in meltdown mode over glitches in audio editing software.

Yeah. I mean, I cry over software and then I go to class and hear about human rights violations in Palestine and I feel like a huge jerk.

Basically I've spent this week trying to throw together the audio package from hell. It is about sustainability on campus, and how basically none of the students care anymore. It is REALLY REALLY DUMB. I am not even exaggerating. But whatever. I am so close to being finished with it. I just have to re-record two of my narration pieces because on one I sound intoxicated or something and the other my computer randomly deleted. WHICH IS AWESOME.

Cortaca, the big annual football game we're hosting against our rivals Cortland State, is this weekend. So this entire week we've been getting e-mails from the administration, e-mails our R.A's, posters in the bathroom, ads in the school paper, telling us all that if we do anything rude/illegal we will never succeed in life or be tasered or something.

At least, that seemed to be the gist of it. I don't know. I don't filter information as well when I'm sarcastic and crabby. A state of which I've been in basically all week.

I am excited for the game though, even though our football team hasn't been doing as well this season, and we will probably lose. But we are Ithaca, and we will lose with ENTHUSIASM and with cleverly worded t-shirts on our backs!

If anything more blog-worthy happens, I will totally let you know. In the meantime, I will return to fulfilling teenage stereotypes of sullenness and self-absorption...with a little audio editing thrown in.
