I discovered that I can not pull all nighters anymore. I felt like the walking dead all day. Not to mention, I almost fell asleep everytime I sat down, including the times I was on the toilet.
I have about 10 things going on this week that do not seem possible to finish without skipping more sleep and/or eating. I am currently hating my life with a passion. !%&$*#^@*
I am so sick of school. I can not seem to get myself to do anything productive. Today: Woke up, bummed around, ate brunch, made some phone calls, bummed around, took a nap, woke up 2.5 hours later, went out w/friends. This is not good.
On another note, I get this odd feeling that this year is different somehow. I just don’t get the same vibe from everything, even though I’ve been in college for over 4 years now. It’s too early to tell if this is a good different or a bad different though.
I shared dinner & quite a few good laughs with some of the old Wada crew tonight. We had some issues getting home. First, we discovered that (after waiting for over 20 minutes) the E shuttle does not run tonight. Then, we witnessed a street brawl less than a block away, which attracted about 5 cop cars a few minutes later. We got approached by a few bummy looking guys on bikes and a drunk guy who assured us that we would be alright. Mhmm. I did not make it back until 1:30am.
<3 this dance. Eurythmics! I can’t stop watching SYTYCD clips. If only they would cut out the talk. Just gimme the dancing!
*SYTYCD=So you think you can dance?
BTW, my bee sting inches so badly right now. And, they cancelled The White Stripes concert @ the Greek. It’s so quiet.
Katie Holmes & Maggie Gyllenhaal
Katherine Heigl & Charlize Theron
It’s personally mind boggling.
Then, there’s the girl in my class who resembles Hilary Swank or that guy who looks like Andrew Keegan. Oh, and let’s not forget the guy who looks like Eminem.
Anyways.
I saw a Tyrone Hayes lecture for maybe the 5th time today. It never gets old for some reason. Medical Ethics seminar is totally rocking my world this semester. I finally got to see a Griego lecture (fabulous) & I might be able to re-live my Human Sexuality days if Malcom Potts comes to speak (possibly for Issues in Reproduction week?). Yaaaaay!
I got stung by a bee!
Like any other day, I laid my hand over the back of my chair while on the phone. All of a sudden (!)…it felt like the chair was cutting into my finger. “Wtf?” I cried and looked down to see a bee crawling away from my hand. That’s when the pain took over my finger. For some reason, I started to laugh, all the while muttering profanities. So, I pulled out the stinger and eventually stuck my hand in the freezer. I think the swelling is dying down now. It was just like getting a shot!…a shot full of poison!
What an exciting night.
The Royal Tenenbaums: Hmm. I was not completely sold on this one. I can see how it’s a wonderfully shot, witty movie, but most of the humor was over my head. I think I got the same feeling with The Life Aquatic (i.e. confused). That one scene with Luke Wilson left me clutching my wrists in horror. *empathy pains*
Little Miss Sunshine: SO CUTE. Funny and touching at the same time. My favorite part: Pageant Host-”Where’s your grandpa right now?” Olive-”In the trunk of our car.”
It’s Monday! Ah! I hate school! Ah! I have no thesis topic! Fu…uck!
Good news: I can go to Reno w/Jenn!
Duty*, oh, duty…why do I hate thee?
1) I can’t see Paris, Je T’aime for $3 at Wheeler tomorrow night.
2) I mistakenly scheduled duty during the weekend I was planning to go to Reno w/Jenn.
3) I have duty during The Shins concert.
@#$%^&$#
*Duty=time RA’s are forced to spend in the residence halls in case anything happens or someone gets locked out
So much paperwork. So many things to plan. And, in the background, homework just keeps piling up.
Yes, that is exactly why I am online right now, writing this post.
I need precious, precious sleep…
I just lugged 24 Target plates back to Foothill only to discover that the Ikea kiddie plates are $1.49 for a set of 6. Their cups are also $1.49 for pack of 6. Oh, and kiddie utensils are $1.49 for 6 sets. It’s $42.96 for 24 Target plates versus $17.88 to get my suite their own set of Ikea kiddie ware!!!
…!!
Shooooot.
3 cool things that happened in the last…5 hours:
1) I re-watched Sense and Sensibility with some of my residents.
2) We played a rousing game of Apples to Apples (an awesomely fun game btw).
3) I got an email saying I could return my book for a FULL refund! YES!
I had forgotten how awkward Hugh Grant can be. *awkward turtle*
“My heart is, and always will be, yours. ” Awww. 
P.S. It’s September…already??
