WELCOME to my blog!
First post ever!
Okay, an intro...
I have a crapton of homework...I have to peer-review three papers, as well as study for a Stats test tomorrow. Boo for hypothesis testing, although I was ecstatic the other day when I read the results of a poll and actually understood what a 95% confidence interval was. I also have to read two chapters in Song of Solomon by Friday and finish my Honors paper. I plan on staying up late ;) OH! And we're going to New Moon at midnight tomorrow (or is it technically Friday?)....and I get to drive to Rochester and back at about 2:30 AM. Oh joy.
Topic for first blog: the fascinating Minnesota dialect.
I'm noticing that most people here are from the Cities, so their accent isn't so bad. My roommate, for example, doesn't really say anything of interest, except when she says her sister's name it's not just Ali, it's like Ay-a-li. However, whenever I go into town and hear a Winonan say "about" like a Canadian, it cracks me the heck up. So anyway, it's nothing like Drop Dead Gorgeous...most of the time.
Okay, time to close.
Song of the day: "Again" by Flyleaf, look it up! NOW!
Quote of the day: Sopranos and Tenors get high without drugs.
