Paul Wellstone, a wonderful man and a senator from Minnesota, died today in a plane crash with his family.

What an indifferent universe we live in.

Ack, blogger is down, so I’m typing this on Word tonight.

I spent the afternoon in the library, researching. Jolly.

Everyone today has been trying to explain to me Daylight Savings time. And for the life of me, I just can’t get it.

So, Kelly, explain this to me again. We set back our clocks one hour?�

Yes, Talya. One hour.

WHOA, WHOA, whoa, whoa, wait just one minute. One hour?�

One hour.

WHOA, WHOA, whoa, whoa, wait just one minute. We set back our clocks one hour?�

One hour.

WHOA, WHOA, whoa, whoa. Say again why we do this?�

Just because.

Similar conversations ensued today with John, Camille, Becca, Mandy, and Katie as well. One hour? I don’t get it, but I did it just now. Thank God my iBook resets its clock itself, otherwise I’d be really confused.

Kelly bought an adorable harvest crest thingie from the Crafts Fair today. I really like it! We put it on our door.

After dinner I called Mom, that was lovely. I didn’t want to hang up, but I had to catch Katie’s concert at eight, so I did. That was so beautiful! Everyone did a wonderful job. Professor Huang played the piano gorgeously, so relaxing. I enjoyed myself.

After that, we all hanged out in the kitchen for a few hours, talking, laughing, giggling over freshly baked cookies and tea. John and Camille carved a Halloween pumpkin while we talked.

Then Emily and I went over to Emily’s dorm and watched The Never-Ending Story while attempting Henna on each other. Although we weren’t too great at Henna, we had a wonderful time, and enjoyed hanging out with each other to no end. Emily’s really cool, she’s from New Mexico and is just one of those people you like to know~
