It's Not Always Rainbows and Butterflies

Another year gone, another semester successfully completed. This semester was tougher than previous ones, but was still dominated by paper after paper after paper. Surprised I was able to pull off what I did. However, the semester was also filled with a lot of good, fun, interesting times. Can't be all work and no play...gotta keep the balance. Still waiting for my freakin' accounting grade though...be nice if I got it before the next semester started. Hoping for a 3.7. As far as my other classes go:

Microeconomics: 4.0
GB 203 (Info Management Systems): 3.7
GB 210 (Business Statistics): 3.7
Forms of the Novel: 4.0
Self and Society: 4.0

Didn't drop or really raise my overall GPA. oh well. Next semester I got Chemistry, Social Problems, Expository Writing 201, Macroeconomics, GB 202 (more accounting), and either Social Deviance and Control or Discrete Probability...gotta wait and see which I can get into. Hopefully I won't have a gazillon papers again....

2005 is off to a pretty slow start. Haven't really done much. A lot of sleeping and chilling. The rest was definitely needed though...but now I am getting pretty bored; leaves a lot of time for thinking...new year gotta make some changes. Need to start living a little more and not being so cautious with everything...I really just need to loosen up and just be me and stop worrying about what everyone else thinks.

Anywho enough of that...gonna go watch some more scrubs...possibly the best show eva.

Andrew Largeman: You know that point in your life when you realize that the house that you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of the sudden even though you have some place where you can put your stuff that idea of home is gone.

Sam: I still feel at home in my house.

Andrew Largeman: You'll see when you move out it just sort of happens one day one day and it's just gone. And you can never get it back. It's like you get homesick for a place that doesn't exist. I mean it's like this rite of passage, you know. You won't have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for your kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. I miss the idea of it. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place.

A-Rod is a bitch.


It's on bitches.

Title line pretty much sums up the last two weeks. Been more busy than I want to be. Tests, papers, 300+ pages of reading a week, meetings, campus activies....blah blah...and that cycle won't be coming to an end anytime soon.

Anyway, I work at the library now. Thurs 8-Midnight where I pretty much get paid to do my hw because no one comes in on thursday...because well it is thirsty thursday. Monday however I barely have a second to breathe. So I guess it all works out.

Our hamster is still alive. Although we think it is retarded because it does stupid things...like hang from the top of the cage by just its teeth.

Everyone in the room is going home this weekend except for Tezzy and I. I have enough homework and crap to keep me busy the whole weekend. Should be a good time. papers, projects, accounting...ick.

I have to meet with my adviser in the near future I need to get majors and minors straightened. See if I can actually double minor in Sociology/Issues in Human Development and International Studies...i'm pretty sure if i double minor, i'll have to do a course overload every semester...and like everything else in my life...that too would be a good time.

ok too much school talk...but that is all i really have to talk about because that is what my life consists of right now...plus I can't post about the crazy stuff that goes on during the weekend cause that stuff is top secret ;P

Anywho time for bed...economics test bright and early at 8:30 in the morning...

Hope you had a wonderful Birthday Brianne :)

i got a job! yay!

we got a hamster! yay!

thought i'd do an actual update since i haven't done one in awhile...plus I don't feel like reading microeconomics right now

My horoscope was wrong for this week...There was no falling in love or getting a pet(which was suppose to happen if I didn't fall in love). =P However, it was an excellent week anyways. Classes are going well all and all. I've got a good group of professors again, which always helps to keep such classes as accounting from being mind numbingly boring. This year is all about living weekend to weekend though. Some good times are had by all on the weekend. Friday cha cha kicked my ass in mario kart...getting first place 10 times. not cool. and it will never happen again. We also learned lisa can play beirut much better when she wears her glasses (go figure)...so from now on she is my permanent beirut partner. and let me tell you we rock. Saturday night we won 9 games in a row.

Lisa and I also had a really long talk last night about pretty much everything under the sun. And oddly enough most the stuff we talked about last night happened today...which was pretty weird and supernatural...freaked the hell out of lisa..weirded me out a bit...and probably left my other roommates thinking wtf is going on and probably made them feel some what left out...

I've got to take pictures of our common room and post them. Our common room is hott stuff.

I saw Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind tonight. Good movie. If you haven't seen it yet do it. I still have to go see Garden State...and the Muse is coming to the Avalon Nov. 5...hopefully I'll be able to go. Kwame Jackson is coming to campus to speak (he was the runner up on the apprentice) but I can't go because I have a night class. =P

alright...i should go read...

i fucking own at mario kart. period. don't even mess with me bitches.

i can breathe again!

so it's now midnight...i attempted to go to bed at 10pm because i was really tired and wanted to get a goodnight's rest...but noooo i can't fall asleep cause i can't breathe out of my nose and my throat is a little scratchy...thank you allergies. grrrr.
