cimorene

my roommate #1 went out to lunch with the in-love-best-friend (/homewrecker) and on the way back, on the town common they saw a huge book sale and she bought ten books, used, for $10. oh the jealousy. i love, love those, but storage over the summer is going to end up being at least $40 a month already, i think--and i also think they do it by weight. i may have to throw some things away when i go. boy is packing gonna be fun. but anyway, it completely made her day. she's been excited and boisterous since then, and she's positively adorable. my other roommate was also being quite cute writing her paper. i think she's a bit reserved, like me, which makes it a little harder for us to relate to each other, but she is nice. either i'm in a mood to like ev'ryone just now, or possibly it's the end-of-the-year lightness. also, here's my brand new icon: i've been looking for a screencap of this pose of uhura's from mirror, mirror, one of the best tos episodes. i have a new one of picard too, but i couldn't part with any of the other new ones yet.

[edit:

wax_jism, america, even more so than finland, is large enough to have more than one regional dialect. and social registers within the dialects, for that matter. i've spent the last thirteen years of my life in one place.]
