Sick of dealing with moving out. I just want to be in my new place already.
But anyways, I'll be moving all my stuff to temporary storage at URI tomorrow.
I really need to get on my stuff for Germany, paperwork and shit. Gah I want some chocolate milk.

Spider-Suit
I know that this is totally pointless, but bare with me. If Peter Parker made his spidersuit himself, why doesn't it rip more easily? He can be dragged through the streets and there won't be a tear on his suit. It has to be a final climactic battle in order for his suit to get ripped or torn.
I'm not saying this is a bad thing. I just wish that they had at least explained this. Superman's clothes don't rip, but that's because they're made of the material he was found in. For some reason these fibers also have super-powers under Earth's yellow sun.
But Spiderman's suit isn't made of some special material, just some cotton. I'm just saying they could have explained it a little better, or made it seem like he's always getting new suits or something. Sorry for ranting.

Generic Life-Happenings Update
Well for those of you interested in what happens to me, here it is:
I've found an apartment for the summer. It's in an alright neighborhood, with two foreign students. They're a good deal older than me I think, but I don't feel that it should be an issue. I'm responsible. This place came after just missing what had seemed to be a perfect place for me. I guess I hadn't seemed sure enough, and someone who saw the place hours after me put down a check on the spot and I lost it. I had been planning to send a check the next day, but hadn't called because I didn't want to seem too eager. I guess that seeming eager is a good thing when you find a place you like.
Classes are done now. I made a 90 on my 314 final, which is shocking to me. I ended up with an A- in the class, which makes very little sense to me, because I had been expected maybe a C or C+ if I was lucky. But I guess the combination of a strong final and curving the grades a bit gave me enough of a boost to get into the A-.
:Update:
I wanted to add that I've also become quite good at blowing smoke rings. It's an interesting time to develop this talent, since I also happen to be thinking more and more about quitting.
Anyways, that particular thought was the reason I had thought about writing in the first place; I figured it was worthwhile enough to come back and post it, since I'd forgotten to in the original post.
