    Current mood:I don't even know!
    Current music:The Christmas Revels--Christmas Day in the Morning

    GRE!
    I took my GRE General today. 750 verbal, 510 math. I really freaked out about that math score, but I called my advisor and he said it's nothing to worry about and that lots of people in the humanities get really bad math scores. Except for the math section and the stress it was actually pretty fun. Dave and I left early to eat at the Everready beforehand. I had a tomato, basil, and mozzarella omelette with potatoes and toast and a fruit cup and tea, a good proper breakfast. I read aloud from The Inimitable Jeeves and by the time we got there we had gotten through all of the chapter entitled "The Metropolitan Touch." Afterwards we went to a restaurant in New Paltz for some dessert--bananas foster for me, apple pie for Dave.
    Oh, I've got so much to do! I have to write my first senior project chapter and my personal statement by next Wednesday, and I'm tutoring 15 people between now and Saturday. I'm cheering myself up by starting with the Christmas cheer. I'm playing my Christmas Revels cd right now and I've drawn sprigs of holly on my dry erase message board. If I ever have time to get to Red Hook I'll buy some real decorations. I'm also going to start cooking holiday things, like cinnamon almonds and cranberry sauce. It snowed last Friday; I can't remember if I wrote about it or not. Well, anyway, it was wonderful.l It made everything feel so perfect and cozy and wintery. It's all melted by now, though.

Something like 680 and 490. Or maybe it was 580?

Anyway, I don't think you have anything to worry about. And I always do a mediocre job at standardized tests. To this date, I haven't figured out what they want and can't get my mind to think the way they want. You know how people have trouble thinking *outside* the box? I have trouble thinking *inside* it.

Happy T-day and all.

Liz
