damn the muse

USC lost to Oregon State. Sweet...

Any bets on who is going to be ahead in the polls, ahead of the Trojans?

Two words: too short!

The episode deserves another viewing before I start raving about it, but I'm glad Roslin and Zarek did not perish. I didn't expect Ellen to be discovered so soon, and I certainly didn't think they'd have Sharon Agathon doubting the death of her daughter. That was brilliant. Of course now it really will bring up whether she can be trusted, and if Helo is brought into the loop, he's going to have trouble with this detail as well. This isn't a question about Cylons versus humans. It's parents dealing with the kidnapping of their child at the hands of people they've come to trust, and this is the ultimate betrayal.

I love it.

Bloody hell, do I really have to wait an entire week for part 2? So not cool.

It's 'new student' day. He sounds so excited to start, and I'm petrified. I come across as assertive and outgoing, but on the inside I'm painfully aware of every word I'm saying no matter what language I'm using. Beginners are so difficult to impress. Then again it's worse when I feel as if I have to make this huge and wonderful impression.

I really do enjoy teaching Spanish. Even more so when I feel like my language isn't being lost to this melting pot called San Antonio, and where the majority of the Latinos feel perfectly justified in mixing things up with English.

Damn. I didn't tell him I was 'special.' He's going to like me!
