Today I found out....

2009-06-11T18:27:00.002-04:00

That my life is pretty boring. Though I find myself okay with that. Most everyone else would be going crazy if they were me. I am finding that not having a job, but taking an online summer class is harder than I thought.

It might be the professor or it could be me, but in the end I'm not doing too well. The class I'm taking online is the prerequisite for two of my classes next semester and if I fall it I will be out 2,500 dollars and will need to take the class all over again. Not only do I not want to do that but I will not let that happen. I need to pass this class with a C or better to have the credit count toward my bullshit major. This teacher never sends e-mails to let us now of anything, wait she did today for the FIRST time ever. She also has a wack schedule on when things are due, such as Monday one week and Tuesday the next. I realize now that I need to actually do the work days in advance since her essays are all a pain in the ass. And that I need to read the book to get better than a 29/40 on the tests. Well I will be starting all this on Monday when I will start working on unit 3 for this course. Not looking forward to it at all. But it is better than taking this class 8AM Monday, Wednesday, Friday of last semester.

Other than that my life consists of sleeping, watching movies, taking naps, and selling stuff on eBay. I'm hoping to at least make some money to be self succient for at least 2-3 months of the summer and the next school year. But, you never know since now-a-days things aren't too good with the economy. Well, I'm off to go eat some dinner for now, mmmm Gino's. How I missed New York foods.

Sorry I never update this I promise I'll try more often. Anyway what is new with me hmm... I am home from school and doing nothing at the moment I need to find something to do and I definetly need to make some money. I am currently just selling stuff on Ebay and trying to make some money that way. Hanging out with friends and basically catching up on what I missed while I was away. Everything is good and all is well in life, at least for now. Hope to catch up with you all really soon when I find something to write about.

Night all.

A short one...

Imagine the past,
envy the present,
live in the future,
and remember,
you are here.

The sun dims while the moon says hello,
you scream the words you always whisper,

Silence comes from the darkness,
but when the light emerges from beyond,
your voice finds a pathway to return,
and you speak again in a whisper.

For you know the only thing that matters,
are the words you say when you are alone,
listen to your heart and find its message,
for all you need in life you already possess.

Your voice,
your whisper,
your mind,
your voice.

I'm home now laying in my comfy bed, ahhhh how nice. Not having that twin size bed is great, though I miss that extra long bit since I sleep at the bottom of my pillow and my feet fall off a little bit.

I have decided that I eat more when I'm home though, not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's probably because food is so much closer, rather than like miles away. I am loving being able to make my own food though in the dorms it was all really prepared for you. And having my own room and bathroom is amazing. I still need to unpack and get myself all "together" but I'm working on it slowly.

Well I'm off to bed. Good Night All!

I have now joined the twitter-sphere. I imagine that I will soon become an addict. I am slowly finding people to follow (mostly celebrities) but always looking for the "normal" people as well.

Finals are coming up soon and then I'm home. :) Can't wait to get some real sleep in the cold AC that actually works and without noisy people and doors slamming and without the noisy lawn mowers and without light coming into my "blinds."

Being able to walk downstairs and get to go make a sandwich that I want (boars head turkey, roasted red peppers, mayo, pickles, on toasted multi-gran bread). I also can not wait to get into my car and drive to nowhere.

Lets hope for good grades on my finals!

It's 1:30AM and I'm sitting around. Don't have classes until 4pm tomorrow. The research paper I spent ALL weekend on now is due on Tuesday... makes me feel like I wasted my time. Now I'm sitting around watching Rob and Big - Big (aka I don't know the name of Rob's new show). Sorry I'm boring lately. I'll find something exciting soon....

Adios.

3:30AM?

2009-03-21T03:22:00.003-04:00

Today was an interesting day. We bought a ton of coloring books and created the "coloring wall." Bring back all the memories of kindergarten and coloring, now all we need to play-do. I have a paper due on Tuesday that I have yet to start and now it's 3:30AM and I'm up. I'll be going to play some poker online or watch some movie. I'll give an update tomorrow on my "paper." Enjoy your night/day.

Video Game Life.

2009-03-20T02:41:00.001-04:00

Life is a game, only the chances are greater and the risks don't leave you with a game over screen asking if you want to press start to continue. The chances leave you with objects, just as those when mario has to decide if he wants to save the princess or not. The risks of killing the toads or getting that power-up is just the same in life. You can reach towards the princess and pass all the toads and power-ups along the way and win the game, but you are left wanting more. The need for victory makes people forget what they have forget along the way to it. The victory of money, fame, or love. But what about the happiness lost along the way, when you stop to think about it, did you really smell the roses? You see no one knows what will come next, no one knows what even came before. All we know is that moment we are in, whether we want to get out of it or not, the game doesn't restart and you don't get second chances. Take risks when you can, fight for love when you know it's right, let it go when you know it's wrong, and don't forget about those power-ups.

5 Strangers and 2 People who know each other

2008-12-12T00:02:00.002-05:00

Late night conversations while watching Date My Mom are very entertaining. The new Real World is starting next week and me and Karen (my roommate) have decided that the Real World will now consist of either:
a) a couple
b) two girls who had relations with the same guy
c) two ex's

This is now become the best Real World season ever called: 5 Strangers and 2 People who know each other.

I had my last "real" final today which let me tell you was the most exciting thing in the entire world. Only I'm stuck here until Wednesday to hand in my paper and get my ride home.

The excitement of going home is growing even though I know I'll miss it once I leave. I'm be bringing my Cheerios along for the ride and hopefully back home I'll have more fun stories to share other than this boring stuff.

Cherrios and Thanksgiving

2008-11-27T00:41:00.002-05:00

I'm one of probably about 50 people who can eat plain cheerios. Not many can, it's a talent I acquired when I was little I assume. I can eat them plain as if they were a snack and let me tell you they taste incredible.

I am sitting here watching TV in bed, there's nothing on and I keep skimming along the channels. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. I can't wait until I can get my sweet potato casserole with marshmallows and my apple crumb pie. :)

Happy Thanksgiving to all!
