yay they have stretch boots at payless now =) i need the high cut boots.
i act like a dork when i have to. i act like an adult when i have to. some people don't understand that about me. some simply don't get me, so they just give me the "you're an idiot" look. sometimes it gets to me, sometimes i just brush it off. sometimes i think i wear a "pick on me" sign. sometimes i bring it upon myself. sometimes... i donno why i brought this up. i think it's the fact that i'm delirious coz i'm sick >_< i thot i was better since my cold went away. however last night, my chest felt all heavy and my throat was freaking scratchy, and i was coughing like mad... that was the case today at school too. darn. i need to rest the next few days and get better. i don't want to get worse. besides, i have tons of hw already. can u believe it, it's the first week of school and i have tons of stuff due next week already. sigh. i'm looking fwd to going to thai orchid tomorrow w/ my parents for lunch... tom yum soup... it's a huge cure! haha. finally started kickboxing class today. whoo. what a day.

i got thru in less than 5 minutes! woohoo. neways. that was random. it was better than waiting in line yesterday in neuberger hall. man ow man. i tried it, but it was so dayng hot in there, i gave up and decided to just call in my question. good thing i did coz i wudda been in line for more than 30 mins. and will receive a 1 min. answer to my dilemma. ha. now all i have to do is wait to get everything processed. i'm suppose to do homework and i'm sleepy. i just got back from target where i bought some school supplies... a pencil and a portfolio thing. i'd rather not bring any huge binders, so in order to minimize the weight of my bag and keep myself organized, i purchased a spiral portfolio with front view cover with 8 pockets. the source of papers will come mostly from my cs201 class, because i'll be printing out lecture slides from my professor's website. i'm glad i only have one book to purchase this term... for my pop culture class. well, enough yapping about school.
i had a really good sleep last night, and a really strange dream. hmmm. neways. back to work!
"sorry, i can't. i'm not a citizen yet"
i want to vote dayng it all... and i can't! 2 people came up to us today, asking us if we've registered...
the rest of the day wasn't so bad. went to mcdonald's for dinner. saw robby and jr. then went to cs201. it wasn't as dreadful like i expected to be. lol. well, it is the first day. and there's a ton of work waiting to be done.
tomorrow's a free day. i'm gonna spend it this way:
1. mailing my car bill - 3 mins.
2. call about my fafsa - ha! i'll be on hold for a while
3. buy some school supplies and other misc. stuff 30mins. - 1hour
4. get some reading and homework done - well, this should take a couple of hours.
sounds like a wonderful day eh? EH? EH?!!!
vacation is over =(
let's all have a moment of silence for the passing of summer. ::silence::
so so so. i'm here, back in my favorite place called SMITH CENTER with my laptop on my, uhm, lap. i've now used up 43 minutes of my 3 hour break. first day of school... wow, all i wanted to do was go home and sleep sleep sleep. it doesn't help that i'm still getting over my cold. there's thing pressure in my head and it's not fun. if i bend over, i feel like my face will crack open and something will come out. but i feel a lot better than i did sunday evening and yesterday. my throat ain't so scratchy anymore. NEWAYS. that was lovely. my first class was cs250 aka mutated calculus/math class. that was a snoozer. but i promised to myself that i'm going to be a good student this term, so i was paying attention for the most part. there's soooo much hw and studying to do in the class. the teacher said, on average, we should spend 4 hours to study for each class that we have (besides the actual class time, which is about 2 hours). so that means i have to spend 8 hours a week on that crap i mean stuff. after that i have cardio kickboxing. woohoo. we didn't really do nething today, the teacher just briefed us w/ what will happen, rules, attendance, etc. she also mentioned something about using punching bags. i'm EXCITED. i'd put some pictures of a couple of people i know for motivation ;P lol. jk jk jk. lunch. well, u know how it goes. finally, pop culture. all i remember is, it was dayng hot in that classroom. i couldn't really focus. i figured i could read the syllabus at my own spare time. and i couldn't help but notice my professor's tattoo. it's one of a skeleton and a sword on the bottom. very pirate-ish. haha, my professor's a pirate, and he's teaching us about popular culture?! LoL. how fun is that. he had mentioned stuff about politics, the election, and iraq. normally, i'd be interested, but dayng it was so freakin' hot in there. he let us out 15 minutes early... so now i'm here, checking my mail and friendster, dreaming about going home. HOME. i miss summer. i want it back already! i don't think i can handle any more work for this day. i have yet to face the ugly monster named cs201. YUCK. i hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate ok u get the point.
man, i can feel it already. this term will be a lot of work. i still have to deal w/ my financial aid stuff. i just love being a college student >P forgive my sarcasm, i'm really tired and grumpy.
hihihihihihi
so yesterday, i went to chipotle to buy myself dinner. the dude that works there almost made me faint. he was so freakin' cute! i was tempted to eat there and just stare at him from a distance. then i'd look like a dork. pshhh. i left. i shall come back... chipotle, tanasbourne branch. sigh... he said, "you don't have to sign anything". hehehe. anyways... i spent most of last night uploading those dayng pics from the canada and seaside trips. antishift was acting up, displaying mysql errors on the screen. so i moved on to flickr.com like i said i was gonna do. which, worked out for the most part. but then i learned that they only display 100 pics at a time, and that you can only upload 10mb each month. sucky yes, but i like their programs... they make uploading pics really easy. why am i talking about picture uploading? this is sad.

When we laugh or we cry it's together
Through the rain and the stormiest weather
We gon still be as one it's forever, it's forever
[nelly, my place]
mayn. my left shoulder hurts like no other. ugh. i dint even do anything to it today to cause it to hurt like this. neways, antishift, the site that i post my pictures at is acting up. so... more delay. i'm thinking of transfering to flickr. hmmm. i might just do that =)
delayed
i am in the process of uploading the pics from the seaside trip and the pics from the canada trip. yes. i know. it took me awhile. hehe. i can't believe school starts next week.
it's raining...
i'm not used to rain anymore. for instance, on monday my parents and i went to someone's house when it started to rain, and when we left i took off my jacket to put over my head and shield myself from the evil rain. my mom started laughing at me and said, "why are you so scared of the rain?". my response, "it's gonna ruin my hair!".
yesterday, rented man on fire and watched it w/ steph. that movie was really good. the cinematography, the plot, the denzel... woohoo! even the subtitles were formatted in an interesting way. then i went to hg's apartment coz she made dinner and invited us over. while having dinner we watched the two back to back episodes of csi on spike tv. so that nite, the culmination of all that happened that day was a really strange dream. it was like a combination of man on fire and c.s.i. i can't really remember much since most of my dream was really blurry, but throughout the nite i felt like i was only half asleep, like i was still watching the movie and the show at the same time and they were all blended together. ugh! i need a nap. i woke up really tired >_<
you know what's a fun video game... mario party 4!!! come play w/ me, i'll beat u (haha, yeah right) while screaming my head off. ask madel and tito pj. LoL. i just realized how annoying i can get. i just get scared easily, what can i do? is there a cure? like on sunday when i was w/ kristy and erin at applebee's. ROFL. there was this guy at the table next to ours. he was talking so loud! he was telling this story, all of a sudden i hear him say BAM! really really loud and i jump bcoz i was startled, then kristy and erin bust out laughing. mayn, stupid guy!
randomness
i know most people think that these things are ugly. well, they're called "uggs" afterall. but i think they're cute =)

i remember being at school... watching everything on the news... first period. it's all a blur now.
Lord, be with the families that have lost loved ones. Continue to be with our nation. Continue to protect us, and guide our leaders. Give the president wisdom. Help us to be reminded that in the midst of something so evil, You are able to make good come out of the situation. Many people have realized that we need You Lord in our lives. Many realize that You are the source of comfort. Many have come back to You. There are many things that are confusing, and we don't know why You allowed certain things to happen, but I am confident that You are good, and You love us, and You have a plan for everything. You are our hope.
uh...

so i don't write in here anymore. bleh. lately i've been hangin' out with my peeps, cleaning up my room and closets, reorganizing, having weird dreams about this random person (LoL), cleaning around the house, getting hooked on this one show, shopping by myself (i find it easier to do that, and i get more done that way), just... enjoying the last couple days of vacation.
i dare you to move
Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be
