You do not know nothing... you don't not know something.

Don't you ever use double negatives purposely? I do. I guess it's kind of a style thing. They have a different connotation than using "correct" English. For example, "I like it" and "I don't not like it". The latter seems to feel a little more uncertain than the other... a little more "middle of the road", wishy-washy, whatever. I like it.

Well, I experienced something new today. I was sitting here watching The Fellowship of the Ring and in walked Rebecca with a bunch of other people. She informed me that they were all Jewish and were going to light the candles in the menorah while reciting something in Hebrew (at least I'm assuming it was Hebrew). I think I recognized the word "Eloheim" in the recitation. I didn't know that Rebecca was Jewish until the beginning of Hanukah. Apparently one of her parents is Jewish and the other is not. I was then left to watch the candles until they burned out.

I spent 7.5 hours on my German project with my German group today. We had much fun though => Wir machten viel Spaß. We had written a script in German and we filmed it this afternoon... Seven hours for ten minutes of good, complete film, but it was very fun. Another good thing was that I got a very good lunch at the Union for free. While we were waiting for Chris in the diag, the squirrels were surrounding us and I got my face within a foot of a squirrels face. They were cute. We nicknamed one "the godfather". Leah was a bit frightened.

Tomorrow I might go to the Campus Band concert in Hill Auditorium (yeah, that's right, Ross... Hill Auditorium. Eat that.), although I do not know who I could get to go with me.

1 paper -> arduous
4 finals -> torturous
10 days -> tedious
a Christmas break with nothing hanging over my head -> priceless
