::yawn:: I woke up amazingly early this morning. I think it was just because I had to go to the bathroom or needed a drink or something, but I couldn't go back to sleep afterward. We have terrazzo floors which get cold no matter what the temperature is outside, but as it did actually get kind of cold last night, and all of the windows were open, and I had my fan on, the floor was freezing. Brrr. Anyway! Coldness and the impending sunrise prevented me from going back to sleep, so I listen to the RotK soundtrack again and then spent some time reading FotR. I'm only about halfway through it, and I have no idea how I am going to manage to finish all of "The Lord of the Rings," and hopefully "The Silmarillion," in the next two weeks. This is of course with finals on the horizon, which means that I will actually have stuff to do as well ::cries:: But, then, I suppose without the internet I will have a lot more free time, so maybe things will work out all right after all. I have definitely started to get more excited about RotK, but in a weird way. It's like I really want to see it, but then at the same time I am so afraid of watching it. I know I'm going to start crying before the movie even starts, and not be able to stop for about a week afterwards. I actually saw a trailer for the movie today on TV... My sister and I were watching "The Shining" this morning, and as it cut to a commercial she was about to change the channel and I went, "Ah! Stop!" because of course there was the very distinct Fellowship theme playing, which can only mean one thing: trailer! But then there were like all of these basketball shots in the middle of it...? It was odd. So I only got to watch about half of the trailer, but! Anduril! Elrond! Whee!

EDIT: Thinking about school and the end of term reminded me of this thing that I have to do for my psych class... I'm supposed to read a book and then relate it to some of the things that we've done in class. I wasn't exactly sure if we were supposed to read any sort of book and then apply that to things that we've done or read a book about people with distinct psychological problems or what, but whatever the case may be, I haven't been able to come up with a book to use. "The Count of Monte Cristo" is my last resort if I can't come up with anything else, but I didn't know if some of you guys might have some better suggestions (re: Heeeelp meeee!).
