Trying to remember to do this.
Feb. 14th, 2008 09:25 pmFirst things first...Happy Happy Birthday to
intelligentrix I hope your day was filled with happiness!!
And now for updates:
This week at school was not-so-hot. I had 5 tests. Oi. They spread the exams out, supposedly, to keep us from having to study so much all at one time during midterms, but the entire department does this. That means we're still studying all at the same time for all of our classes, only we're doing it 3-4 times a semester instead of twice. The good thing is that the only cummulative exam is the final. I suppose I'm ok with that.
What I'm not ok with, however, is how well I did on the exams this week. It was a shit week as far as that's concerned. My Math exam scored a whopping 60%, the historical geology was probably a C and Chem...Oi...chem. I walked up to the professor at the end of the class, handed him the exam and said "Uncle." He laughed but all I could think about was getting outside to verbally berate myself.
The good thing is that I actually like my professors (even the evil Chem professor) so I'm going to try to stop stressing in everyday life and try to buckle down. I got better this week and started to catch up in my chem homework so that's good. Now it's just a matter of keeping up with it. This weekend will be spent writing an essay on the density of an orange, doing homework and looking up info for my Ecotox class. I need the books for that and historical geology but I just can't afford them. Oh....wait. That is to say that I'll be doing that work in between trying to get some more hours in at real work. I haven't been there since Monday and that was only 6 hours. Yay me.
Love front is nada so Happy VD Day to the circus out there. Hope you guys enjoy and all that. My tender spots on the neck are gone and I've started my happy moment for the month, so no boom-boom for me. I actually should have completely recognized that it was going to show up since I had a sexually charged...erm..incident? It never fails. I'm surprised though. This one waited 3 days to show. Now if it can only do that everytime, I'll be back in business. Nothing like explaining to a potential sex partner just as you're getting into the hot and heavy that if you bleed, it's not their fault it's just because your body is fucked up. At least the guys don't have to worry about me getting pregnant that way. Heh..
I'm talking like I plan on returning to sex soon. I'm probably not going to do that. But the liaison over the weekend has me considering it. Gave me a little more confidence in that area I suppose. Which is fine, as long as I don't do anything drastic and spontaneous bordering on stupid. Just have to keep my head straight and remember that I've made this decision of celibacy for a reason. It's not like it's forever, it's just until I find myself in a position of a potential...something.
I guess we'll see. Maybe stupidity will win. It usually does.
In other news, I've gotten a little hooked to this online karaoke thing. It's just silly considering how much I dislike to have people listen to me. I guess this gives me a block from people watching me while I do it. I'm not some wonderfully fantastic singer or anything, but I can hold a tune and I'm not really all that bad. I even joined a few contests to see how I fair. It may become my new addiction. We'll see.
If you feel so moved, you can find me at www.thesimsonstage.com and under members in the same name as here. Just make sure that if you're going to go listen to me fuck up good songs, rate me! Heh
Ok, I've been at school about 12 hours now so I guess it's time to make my way back towards the northshore.
