30. Good Wednesday afternoon, lioness!
1. I just went to the local two-year community college.

2. No graduate school.

3. If I had gone on to finish college when I was younger, I would have majored in history, and minored in political science. I will be going for a Bachelor's in Science as part of the Physician's
Assistant course at the University of Washington. Now I just have to get accepted to the program...

4. I wish I could write prose like Aaron Sorkin or write songs like Leonard Cohen.

5. Back when I first got contacts, I ordered a pair of clear and a pair of Sapphire Blue colored contacts. I have brown eyes so I thought it would be cool to be blue eyed. This was the early days of colored contacts, and in bright sunlight, people said my eyes looked like those of a demon. That's what they said... Don't know of any blue-eyed demons though.

6. You mean for the rest of today, or for tomorrow? If you're feeling well now, go to work tomorrow. If you've already called in sick for today, enjoy the day. B-)

Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 05:51 PM by ALiberalSailor
1. I currently attend University of Maryland
2. I will most likely get my Masters from Maryland or University of Oklahoma, depending on where I get stationed next.
3. My major is Information Systems Management. My Masters will be in either International relations, or Organizational Leadership.
4. I wish I was a wicked dancer. Like those other white guys who, when dancing, people look at and say, "Damn. That white boy's got
rhythm!"
5. Nope. I can't tolerate contact lenses.
6. Absolutely not! Clean your apartment, do all your laundry, start/finish a book. Do something you normally don't have time to do.
Since you're already off, you might as well take advantage of it.
