Late, My Mistake

Oh the joys of being caught up with life.. school and all that it includes, family, the boyfriend, regular friends.. You know the drill.  It has been almost a full month since I have actually had legitimate time to post a blog due to this thing called life and all it has in store for me.  For the past month it seems like I've been so incredibly busy that it's not even a million miles close to funny.  I've done things like power written essays from scratch the day they're due even though I'd not really read the material needed to write said essays, skipped classes in order to write said essays, been doing other homework such as anthropology, dealing with issues that are family members (such as my little cousin being a complete brat during my time up in Volcano during Thanksgiving time and crying over a pillow being too close to his bed, being asked to get a bottle of water and drink a bit of it and not being able to find his PJ pants (that are frankly way too small for him in the first place) and just being a nasty little creature from H.E. double hocky sticks.  I mean for goodness sakes.. he is 11 years old, in middle school as a sixth grader and threw at least 2 tantrums each day we were on vacation.. he cuddles stuffed animals and stuffs his blankie in his bed so he can sleep all coiled up in it, as well as starts crying if his mom is late for work and asks him if he can bike to school, he obviously refuses and since she starts work an hour earlier than he starts school, he always makes her late.. and he also has to have mommy there to do his homework for him... Pathetic much..?).  And then there are things like being dog-tired every single day because I can't sleep worth a damn anymore and wake up every couple hours.  I used to be able to sleep like the dead, but then college hit me in the gut and I'm stressed like cah-razy.  So yeah, I have been incredibly busy lately and that's why there's been a lack of my posting.  I've also got a broken laptop so that part sucks.  -_-,  But on the bright side, I have all of my classes chosen for the next semester =) I have my boyfriend to thank for that because if it weren't for him tutoring me before I took my math placement test today (which I barely squeased into, but luckily was first on the waiting list so I got in)  and I got a much higher score than I thought I would, I expected to get into elementary algebra (150) but got into intermediate algebra (155) .. not bad for not taking a legitimate math class in almost 4 years right? :D  Oh but I was scared as heck when I was looking over practice exams before, and while I was taking the test.. I was so scared I thought I might puke on the keyboard.  But I made it, and even though everyone was given a three hour time limit, I did it in just under one hour and apparently did really well...  The boyfriend unit should be out of class and walking my way soon.. but knowing him he'll be talking to some of his math buddies for another 10 minutes or so :P  I am glad he is social like that but sometimes it's a bit annoying to get home a half hour later than I originally wanted because of him talking for elongated periods of time and basically losing all awareness of time in general.  He has been out of class for about 5 minutes now, and if he doesn't sociallize for more than a couple minutes, he should be here in another 5.  I think I am going to let him come find me so I don't have to go wait out in the cold, plus it's comfortable in here and not to mention warm too.  And I get to listen to music (I want to watch Spirited Away soon, I'm listening to the pandora station that features the composer of that movie) and it's quite calming, which is definitely a good thing cause I'm PMSing like mad right now and I'm still hyped up about my test scores.  I called my mom and told her, I have yet to tell dad though.  I hope he'll be proud of me.  Back to the classes I've chosen for the spring 2012 semester, I've picked out concert choir, world music appreciation, speech 1A, math 155 and I'm hoping to stick a yoga class in there somewhere because I have it this semester and practically love it because not only is it strengthening my hips, but my core too.. and it's helping me gain back my flexibility cause in August and September I frankly had none what-so-ever.  (It feels like someone is behind me just looming.. but every time I look there's no one there.. I guess I'm just paranoid sometimes, plus the Stephanie Plum novels are probably getting to my head, and with the earbuds in I can't hear very much at all what's going on in back of me so that's got me kind of freaked).  Ahh.. I got that much desired text from le boyfriend and shall be off, on towards home!

Peace, Love and all that Jazz!

Rain ^_^

You know that wet stuff, usually falls in droplets from the sky?  Yeah, that has a high chance of happening this weekend and that makes me very happy.  I look forward to the rain quite a bit, but for multiple reasons.  

1. It was my first word at 6 months old
2. I love the feeling that the air has when it is about to rain
3. The smell of the ground and air changes and I love the fact that I can pick that up 
4.  I love the sound of the pitter-pattering all the way up to not being able to discern between droplets because it's all falling so hard and fast
5. The dark sky is very interesting and casts a different light, which makes me look at things in a different way
6. I like the feel of rain, not physically, but the aura and essence it puts off 
7. My roof is amazing and I love the way I can hear every single drop that hits it, whether it's light as heck and dinky, or thick and heavy

(Oh my goodness the girl across from me in here (the reading room on the 4th floor) is working on a push pop.. you remember those things from the elementary days, you push up the hard candy and then suck on it until there's absolutely nothing left.. and this chick is sucking it like no other :P I think it's pretty funny looking)

so there's another half hour before I am able to claim my rightful spot in the reading room here.. an old man is in it and using up my battery life because of it >.> Uncool.  Another thing that's slightly irksome is the fact that the girls basketball team is in here and making a bunch of noise by talking and eating and whatnot.. IT'S CALLED A READING ROOM FOR A REASON!!!! IT NEEDS TO BE QUIET IN HERE!  >:C ....Quite annoying to say the least....

"10 minutes have elapsed", as the automated woman's voice for Iron Chef, would say... Ohhh man, I think he is moving.. time to take my spot back! Haha! ... I wonder if anyone in here will notice that I moved.  I highly doubt it because I tend to remain invisible to the majority of mankind.  Which I like.  I would so much rather be under the radar than in the spot light.. *shudders*.. I hate being on stage or where everyone can see me and will notice what I am doing.  Time to move! :D  This just made me a whole lot happier.  Yayy I have my spot back ^_^ now it's time to hit the bathroom to get some much needed business done.  Be back in a second.  Ok, I feel much better now.  And now that I'm plugged into the wall (computer, not me literally) I can have my brightness all the way up without diminishing my battery life =)  Quite helpful if you ask me when it comes to seeing.  Holy goodness chick-with-the-pushpop, you've totally destroyed that thing in less than a half hour.  Oh sweet, the majority of the basketball team is leaving.. Goodbye chattering girls.. hello dark ominous clouds! :D  Please rain please rain please rain!!!!! If I only get to see the drops hit the windows of this magnificent room that's pleasure enough for me! C,mon rain!  Precipitation would be absolutely lovely right now...  please.....?  Maybe if I ask nice enough Mother Nature will grant my wishes for rainfall... >.< *wishes really hard for rain* ... >.^ ... not happening yet..... *wishes harder*.... >.< .....  ^.<   I see the clouds, they're full of rain, why is it not raining?!  -_-,  ..... Well you can't say I didn't try.  Time to watch an episode or two.. maybe three or four, of Paranormal State.  I shall write later =) 

... :D

Phail October

Yes I realize that I spelled "Fail" wrong, don't tell me.  I'm already in a bad mood and I don't need it to worsen.  So I really don't like the happenings of 2011's October.. it was an emotional roller coaster and Halloween straight up sucked.  It isn't fun to have a bad cold on Halloween.. and it being on a Monday night in the first place is just uncool to begin with.  So I wont have any photos up of my costume because it didn't fit in the first place.  (My nylons ripped, the costume itself didn't work at all, I started that freaking monthly thing that women have to deal with until they're in their mid 50's, my nail polish didn't like me and kept getting messed up, I forgot some things at home... you name it, it sucked).  Which is also uncool.. wouldn't you agree? Life just basically sucks right now.  I've failed the majority of my geology lab crap (who the frick would be able to memorize and identify 40 different minerals and rocks after seeing each of them only one time?! So there goes my first two exams out the window...).  I've gotten sick and missed almost half a week of school because of it (screw you allergies or whatever the heck is messing with my sinuses).  Back to a failed Halloween.. it was most definitely the most depressing and disappointing Halloween I have ever lived through.  Nothing went right or the way it should have.. except for my pumpkin carving.  I'm proud of it. (I'll post it at the bottom of this thingy.. just FYI: there's a bat to the left, and a crescent moon to the right even though you can't really see it). Today is not the best day either.  Just the little things have completely chipped away at my sanity such as getting a bunch of paper cuts within a second and then having them all swell up like a mosquito bite would, cramps (enough said), my digestive track seems to hate me and is also not feeling so hot, I've had a lack-there-of lovey-dovey attention or time with my boyfriend, being stressed out over school, barely having time at home because I'm always at school, the lack of sleep, the things I bake don't turn out, my new athletic shoes: they creak every time I take a step, I need to lose a good 50-60 pounds in order to be happy with my body and it's going to be extremely hard to do that by the new year.. I don't even think it's possible unless I starve myself and work out a couple times a day, Halloween sucking so bad and all the disappointing things that happened that night, I don't have much motivation in life anymore, I haven't seemed to be happy at all these last couple months, I keep thinking about what I want to do and where I'll end up:  I have no freaking clue about what the heck I want to do or where I want to go and so that's just depressing me... Who am I? ... The list goes on and on...
