Oops.
Haha. Let's just pretend it hasn't been two and a half weeks since I last updated.
I am freaking exhausted. This is my schedule (nice and blurry for ya):
It's demanding, and it doesn't help that I haven't been particularly enjoying either work or school.
I wish I had been updating over the past couple of weeks though. Looking back, some interesting things have happened.
Oh well, it's too late now. :)
I ate too much sushi for dinner.
Also, I realized that I would write a lot more if I didn't feel like I had to censor my entries based on who I know reads them.
No work, no class.
One thing that I've noticed is that I become extremely apathetic to the world when I'm on my period.
Today was nice. No work, no class. I just hung out in my room and watched Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix while I did my nails and some laundry. I also colored in my Hello Kitty 288 Coloring and Activity Pages coloring book and played some New Super Mario Bros. on my DS. Then David came over, and I broke my foot, and we (me, David, Alicia, Stephen, Spenser, Mitch, and Ma) went to Mary Mac's where they didn't have chicken and dumplings.
Emily has restored my faith in the female gender (which is good because I was just about to become completely settled in my opinion that they're all selfish back-stabbers). But some of them keep their promises and TELL you things. :)
Also, I didn't really break my foot. But I did cut my toe (deeply) open on my door.
The end.
Football + reading = bad
Oh sheez, I'm exhausted. Listening to two football games while trying to read for my Technical Communications class only ends in a headache. What a long day.
Let's see, stuff that happened this weekend. I got two parking tickets, and I STILL don't understand what I did wrong. David and I went to my brother's basketball game. I played some video games such as Smash with David. Mind you, he is ridiculously good (like, ridiculously) so I was only trying to learn from him, not beat him. I feel that I made some progress.
Oh yes, and one other notable event is that I have finally seen The Princess Bride. Thank you.
What I think about when I'm supposed to be reading about rhetorical communication:
So I know that I'm a Computer Science major, and I know that I've wanted to be in the field of Computer Science since I was in 10th grade, but do you know what I only just realized today, like, right now? The word "computer" is just weird. Think about it. I mean yeah, computers do compute stuff, but they do so many more things now. Like, that's not even an appropriate name anymore. Someone should fix that. That is all.
I meant to...
I meant to blog. I meant to do that combinatorics homework earlier. I meant to go to the grocery store, do my laundry, and take out my trash.
I've been meaning to do a lot of things this weekend but failed to do so whether it was due to sheer busy-ness or unpredicted anxiety attacks.
However, here is some fun stuff that I did this weekend:
It snowed! It snowed in Georgia! Finally. So David and I played in the snow Saturday morning and had snowball fights and stuff. That was good. Here is the football stadium, for those of you who were wondering what it looked like covered in snow. I figured Glen could appreciate this one:
Also, we watched the best indie film (from New Zealand) the other night, called Eagle VS Shark.
It was SO GOOD. Wicked good. All who have seen it say it was a rip-off of Napoleon Dynamite - only better. Where all = me, David, Adrian, and Mitch. Ma didn't like it.
I also saw 27 Dresses yesterday. Bad. It probably would have been better had I not had so much homework I was supposed to be doing.
Anyway, I've been super busy lately. I barely have time to breathe, let alone go to the grocery store. Maybe I'll be able to come up for air on Thursday or Friday.
Also, Alicia and Stephen made THE BEST homemade sushi tonight for dinner. Like, wow. Why was it so good.
I have been doing school since 8:30 this morning. Break for dinner only. Good. Night.
I woke up this morning.
I woke up this morning and weighed myself (as per usual) and was pleased to discover that I now weigh 139.0 pounds. It's been such a long time since I've seen the 30's on that scale. This makes 14 pounds that I've lost. ^^
Also, I forgot to mention that I've made two of my 21 things to do before I'm 22 goals recently: I've completed one whole journal (I use a Moleskine, but who doesn't), AND I've lost ten pounds. This makes a total of three goals that I've completed (as I also gave up chocolate for twenty-one days that one time), so I like where this is going.
Also, I need these bookmarks by Bob's Your Uncle, please, particularly the Unputdownable:
Bunny!
So yeah, the homework's really picking up around here. That's all I've been doing since Thursday night. With the exception of going to Starbucks with Glen for a little bit Friday night, and David and I celebrating our five month last night at Ted's Montana Grill.
Just homework though. That's it.
I did, however, manage to draw this on my new drawing tablet:
Mind you, it IS a drawing tablet, and I have to get used to it. So don't judge. And just ignore the fact that I stopped drawing in the middle of her silver crystal/bow. Don't pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about. Glen also drew a stunning replica of Sailor Moon, but I'm not sure if he would like me to post it on here.
Anyway. I have to get back to my never ending supply of homework.
Two things.
1. I hate it when my peers try to bump their final grades (in a course) from an 89 to a 90. Even from an 89.4 to a 90. Just accept the fact that you don't know the 90% of the required material that it takes to get an A. This is one of the most blatant violations of the academic honor code. I hope you know you're lying to everyone.
2. I can't remember the other thing at this point; I'm running on four hours of sleep. It doesn't matter though. I bought all five seasons of Sailor Moon + the three movies, and I'm going to get work done so I can watch them.
