happy corporate holiday!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Mesh. Life is like an hourglass glued to the table- fo sho. I can't believe it's halfway through the quarter again, what the heck man!

I'm going to be happy once its Friday. I've got a 4pg paper due Thursday, psych test Tuesday and Math- az alwayz. Ick ick ick. I feel like I know my psych, but I felt that way last time and didn't do so good...hmm.

Yea...nothing too exciting except my dad and sibs are leaving to go to this Greek dance festival in Cali, so I get to hang out with my mommy! I'm happy because its going to make her happy, giving her a chance to get out of the house. Hope I have enough time for hw. I guess I will make time! Hah!

Alright, best do another 2 lame hours of work.

College, you are le suck.

That Girl

Finally the week is over.

I delt with the harsh reality that I suck at college. I got a nine out of forty on my first math midterm. Might as well not have done it! Thankfully the median was 22, and I will do better on the next one. And my dad was understanding of how hard college math is. The most frustrating is its sorta stuff I've done before but they've somehow made it complicated. I'm feeling better since the TA is Penny's friend and is hopefully willing to help me pass this class. I really need one on one tutoring.

Got to hang out with Elias, which is cool. Haven't seen him in a couple years! I love my Greek homies..haha. Also got to see my Fig friends. That was cool.

I'm feeling better after brief suffocation that I thought I just lost the coat I've been craving. Whew. I love getting federal tax income back!

I hate being sick, but it's honestly not bothering me too much. I just hate not being able to taste food, the soul of my being. And doesn't make my mood better.

Alright, gotta study this weekend, whooo! Psychology man. Today I signed up for a couple psych experiments. We'll see how it goes. But I def want the xtra credit for doing it.

I'm Not Okay..

I have a dumb math test tommorow. I don't feel at all prepared. We just blitzed through seven chapters in the last couple weeks. I miss the way math was taught in high school! I need Mrs. Bower! It's funny, I know the math but the way it's presented..as one other guy put it, "its so they make you fail.." I honestly hope that isn't true. Hopefully my page of notes will help me. Plus I need to finish an article analysis. Which isnt that painful but I'm making it so. I def care about math, not so much geog since its pretty easy. So far anyways. Okay, I'm doing work. I said I was going to stop this procrastination and I can already see how well that's going. But after the math test tommorow, life will be good!


I NEED a good math grade!

Feeling like failure.

I got two tests this week: psych and math. And I don't feel very prepared for either. I've been really procrastonating and its gotta stop. Like after I finish writing this. I feel like I need to get really good grades this quarter so I can get into a biology major. AHHHHH. Math is so hard, but not so I don't understand why I can't get it. I wish it was high school and I could understand math (mostly) again. Sorry this is a ton of complaining, but this has and will be my focus in life for the next couple weeks. I just want to get at least a 3.5 in those classes. And I figure with up to .3 extra credit I should get at least that if not more in Psych. Just have to continously study. That's really what I gotta do. Oh well, I'm just so glad there's no English.

How We Operate

My brain- dead. I got an entire two hours of sleep last night- but that's totally my fault. My arms and legs? Dead. I feel like someone stretched out my arms and legs. Icky. But I burned some calories. Mikey and I shredded up that hill haha. I spent an entire weekend watching the entire second season of Grey's Anatomy, nasty habit I know. And snowboarding today, and now I have someone to go board with! That's cool. So kinda productive. I'm still not getting used to this school schedule again. I keep comparing the begining of this quarter with the last, which seems years ago. It's so funny because before I flipped out whenever I had a break and didn't have anyone to hang out with. I'm okay with that now since I feel less dependent- add in the fact of extra time for hw. I miss seeing my Fig buddies, but hopefully we can still stay in touch. I've made a couple new friends, like in psych. Geography and Health is my fave class- most def. I can't understand why they don't have quiz sections. I'm not going to learn anything! Or, it will be much more difficult...or not. I know exactly what I need to learn, which is way better than anthro. Ug, so glad I don't have that anymore. Hope everyone is back and school and having fun times. UW hasn't missed a single day since this snow crazyness started. Whatever..at least we don't have to make up any days. I wish it had snowed this much last year though!

Alrighty. I best get something done tonight. Happy MLK Day.

Happy 2007...and all that jazz..

..And before you know it break is over. Well I know everyone else doesn't have school yet. But I do!! Isn't life grand. But its been good so far, cause nothing has started yet really. But I did spend 117 on a psych book. That was NOT fun. Brendan was working there though, I was like hey what are you doing here? There isn't your school. Haha..My Geog and Psych Profs seems really awesome. Math just sucks so whatever. At least Jenna's there too.

I have 4 other Ballard kids in psych and I swear I didn't know any of them were taking that class. It's kinda funny actually.

Hopefully I can get awesome grades in these classes. Go me. <---That's enthusiasim right there.

First Quarter- down!

Hahahahahaha. I'm sooooooooooo happpy!!! No more homework or studying or being in class for the next couple weeks!!! Two finals yesterday sucked, but I'm feeling pretty good about both. So I think that's good.. For the first time in a week I got a full night of sleep. I'll miss my classes and the people in them...they were boring at times but still fun. Well, actually I wouldn't actually call English "fun". But the comp requirement is done.

I get to see everyone! and sleep in and mess around online and be fat and lazy!

Sorry about the hype..I just can't keep it bottled up. :)

Happy Holidays everybody!

Snow!

Unfortunately, not totally sticking but I took a couple pics. It's kinda pretty with the sun and snow. But really cold. I wore my thermal underwear today. I feel so fat cause I'm wearing like five layers on top and 2 on the bottom with two pairs of socks-and I stayed fairly warm. Too bad hats look really bad on me and can't cover all my hair. Geeeez.

Here's last night...

















And when I got home today! Haha, you can see my hand and ghetto camera.


So yea! I thought it would be nice to post some pictures instead of writing.

Thanksgiving weekend

Alright its my fave weekend. Okay not my most fave but its pretty sweet not being at school last couple days. Thanksgiving wasn't too exciting since it was pretty low key, but its all good. We had roast, not turkey which is fine with me cause I'm not turkey's biggest fan.

Hung out with Amanda, Ericka, Monique and Jenna. Nice to see Amanda and Ericka, seems like everyone's doing good, which is good. We saw Borat....all I can say is hmmm. I'm glad I wasn't in the movie, cause I'd feel pretty dumb. Okay some parts were funny. Others, no way.

Yesterday I went shopping for eight hours at Alderwood. Only got a present for the sibs, Elf for only 6 bucks. At Target. I dunno, I'm trying to find a decent coat and long sleeve waffle shirts but so far not good. I don't understand why some places still cary camis and thin shirts. I need to be warm!

So today I'm working on hw and studying, since finals are only a couple weeks away. It's so strange that I'll be done with these classes already in less than a month. It sucks that all my finals are on Monday, but at least I'll get about another week off.

Registration

Oh snap. It was stressful, but I made it into all my classes/quiz sections! But I don't think I can go back to sleep now. But I need more sleep. Now the question is, did I do this well enough to land in the same classes and quiz sections as the people I talked with? Hmmm..to be continued!

Monday Monday

Weekend was fairly chill. Got to hang out with Ian and Carolee at Kealans. Saw Colin, Josh, and Chui too. That was actually really nice to be with a group of familiar people. I hadn't seen Kealan since June. We all watched 40 Year Old Virgin, at some parts Carolee and I were like uh...boys.

Didn't get to see Reilly, I guess I should have called her. I spent lots of my weekend watching movies and watching TV shows. But I had an ephiphany....I love Superman. I watched the original movie, the second one is on its way. Plus I'm watching the animated series, which I used to watch when it was on. It was a really good show! Why did they cancel it? Plus Batman guest starred, and I didn't realize until then that Batman/Bruce Wayne is a little arrogant. Superman is all about the good for the people. I still love Batman Begins, and can't wait for that and the Superman sequel to come out. Anyways, sorry that's me rambling.

Today is nice as I'm just doing some readings and peer reviews. Plus..oh man I forgot. I gotta decide which classes I'm gonna take! Ah! I think Math (ew.) and maybe art and something else. I hope I get into the classes I want. Please please please.

Anyways, learning about mitosis and meiosis in Anthro, so finally something familiar! So relieving after all the bones and monkey stuff. I can't take evolution for much longer.

Heaven= 3 day weekend

Finally the weekend is hurr. So pumped. Gonna be so lazy and sleep tonight, then I guess I have to do some hw. Unfortunately, I didn't do so hot on my Anthro midterm. Ug. Melissa and I said we were gonna start studying like now for our final. Apparently everything will be better cause this is just how the first quarter of college is...I really hope.

Last night went to the Bodies exhibit with my figgys. Pretty cool, didn't get too grossed out cause I've seen grosser. But really, it was interesting. Did you know if all our muscles worked together we could lift a ton? Reminds me of the book I'm reading about cadeavers. No, I'm not a sicko-I like forensics. Which reminds me I haven't read my Forensics for Dummies book lately.

Err, I think I lost my library card.

Anyways..hope everyone is relaxing this weekend, tty'all lata!

yesss

Midterms are ova! Sweeeet. Now I got a paper. College sucks. Well I don't mean totally.

I'm just very pumped for the three day weekend. I like sleeping. And getting more time to be lazy. Reilly's coming back so we'll try and kick it, so that's tight. Oh did I mention sleeping in? I just didn't seem to get it when people said you wouldn't get much sleep in college. Hah. They sure showed me.

The rain doesn't seem to bother me, I just get mad at myself for not getting an actual coat. Something waterproof. Wat eva.

My parents are working again, so that's pretty tight. My mom's in a better mood. She has new stylish glasses too! She's beating me fashion wise cause I've been dressin like a slob lately.

Well better get a little bit of the paper done and get some shut eye- dentist tommora..whoop de doo...I bet I have another cavity and will have wisdom teeth pulled. I'm so optomistic.

Nighty night!

Stop! I said it's happening again! We're all wasting away..

Dude this Kasabian song is my current fave..I'm so glad my parents got Mike an mp3 and 2 month trial on Napster.

Well my bookshelf just collapsed, so I'm kinda scared to walk over to that side of my room still. And angry cause it broke my earring holder. After all these years...maybe I need to get rid of some books. Haha.

Plus I had the worst dream last night- my yiayia died and Whitney was moving away for like ever. Well I mean she is moving but it just sucked anyways.

And then I have a 7 pg paper due and a midterm on Tuesday..so I'll probably be like hugging everyone with happiness after school. Until then..I have to study. I got Homo habilis and sectorial third premolar and diastama running through my head.

But...I saw the BHS play with Grace last night. It was good, but wierd plot. "The Skin of Our Teeth". Many new faces, but I recognized Kelsey, Dexter, Amanda, Kyle, Josh, Paul, Lauren and Nate. It's just wierd not seeing David or Lisa or Emily up there, let alone walking into that building.

Had quick Thai with Carolian. Feel very stuffed, like a turkey. Oooh that reminds me Thanksgiving is coming and I'm so excited! I can everything I want and not be questioned or feel guilty...heh heh.

Alright I better seriously study. Peace.

Laughing babies

Please watch this and try not laugh. Seriously.

I should go sleep but yeeeaaa...

Saturday night and doing hw. I'm so proud of myself. Thursday night..or Friday morning I got only 4 hours of sleep. Pretty much my fault. Carolee called me and I said I could watch a movie with her and Ian- they left at 1. Haha. Then I started hw. It's cool though..it's nice to have a break from all this stupid writing.

The Office is really funny..I think I need to see the orginal though. Jim's cute too..

Shopped on Broadway after school yesterday for the first time. I know, I'm crazy. There's a couple cool places. At this one store this guy was telling me and Penny about crazy rednecks with swastika tats with guns in their front seat (from AAA) and why he moved to Seattle. I assured him there are no crazy rednecks with guns in Seattle.

Hung out with Grace yesterday..we went everywhere- Coldstone, arcade games at Sunset, then Denny's with Axel, Kyle, Brittany and Becca. Haven't seen those kids in a while, so that was really nice. I think next week Grace and I are trying to go to the play. Kyle didn't explain it to me cause he said it was complicated and told me to look it up, but I don't remember the name he told me...snap.

lalalala

Okay first midterm over! Angela and I studied our flippin butts off. Better get a decent grade.

Quiz today in Bio Anthro..I think I did okay. Oh well. Now time to study for that midterm.

Went out to Red Robin with some people in the FIG, hoped that more people would come but of course they couldn't..its cool. But I love teriyaki chicken burgers. And discovered freckled lemonades from this girl in my FIG..it was so funny she and our fig leader were talking about doing the birthday thing for people when its not their birthday. And at one point he left a little, turns out he said it was her birthday. It was funny..I got to eat the ice cream cause she was full, and so was everyone else. So it was pretty cool.

Alright..one more day till the weekend..sweet! I'm so pumped...I deserve a reward..

The world loves wannabes, so hey hey do that brand new thang!

Ah, the weekend is gone, for another week. This weeks gonna suck cause of midterms. And English. I could rant a ton about English, but that's boring.

I saw the Phantom of the Opera last week, and I'm totally in love with it. I can't stop listening to the soundtrack. Ahhh. So I definitely reccomend it.

Friday went to Jet City, pretty awesome. I'd do it again, their Clues thing was funny. Got to hang out and actually talk with people in my FIG. They're pretty cool, we started an entire conversation from talking about being cold to scarves which lead to knitting. I think I need to learn how to do this. Saw Over the Hedge, cute movie.

Saturday morning I got up and felt this crushing pain in my chest. It's hard to describe. Then I felt like I was gonna throw up and got lightheaded..it was so wierd. I have serious problems...

Cope was pretty good, minus all the smoking. Learned about this new artist, Alice Smith. She was pretty cool too. I was pretty tired though by the time everything was over, the concert didn't start for an hour and a half.

people are so funny
