Man this week has been hectic! First I get home on friday to find that we have company, and everything is a mess. Then on Saturday my boyfriend and I had our own birthday/valentines day date plus all the chores we had to do. Then on Sunday, I needed to go grocery shopping and do laundry and get a mountain of homework finished for monday! Then monday ended up being a stay on campus till 9 at night so I could get everything done!
Luckily I got a little break yesterday though...and today I get to stay on campus till 9 again. Isn't that exciting? Darn labs...always making me have to play with robots until its perfectly programmed...
I'll probably get to talk more tomorrow, cause thats my easy day. My little relax and quit stressing day.
Yesterday was my 20th birthday. No fun was truely had yesterday. Honestly, the only nice thing that happened was my boyfriend gave me my present. My spoils from him are a new and larger sketch book, which I've been wanting for months, chocolate, a flexible eraser, and a blanket decorated with binary. Best gifts ever. And my aunt gave me gloves and a scarf that match. When its this cold, you need a lot of those.
Thank you Mimi for the present as well! That was a nice little surprise for me when I got on here! ^-^
But ya, mostly all I did yesterday was homework, classes, more homework, LAB REPORT, homework, call mom, and homework. What a great birthday. I didn't even get to talk to my brother. Oh well, what can you do.
I have decided that this song is my theme song. I LOVE it. Not all of Nephews songs are good, but the ones that are good are amazing, I think. Unfortunately, America also has a rapper called Nephew, so if you look them up, they aren't rappers, they are a rock band. But ya, even the lyrics kinda are like me, or used to be like me. I don't know how to explain it.
So I am totally addicted to this new band I found called Nephew. I was trying to find this song forever, and I'm sorry it doesn't start automatically, but its an embedded code, so I couldn't have it work like I wanted to. The song is called DTAP and its in Danish. They are a danish band, and have my new interest.
But ya, I have been working my butt off the last two days. I had work and lots of lab reports to finish. I also lucked out though, and I got a really easy problem in Electrical Engineering for homework last night. Yay being in a high math and science major...
Tomorrow is my 20th birthday! Woohoo...I don't really know if I'm excited about it or not. I'm more of a mild interest. Honestly, I have gotten past the point of having birthdays be a big deal.
Alright, so some info on my job is needed for this story. You will also know something about me that is quite different. First, there are two people who work at a time just like cops. We are "partners" because one person teaches grammer and the other does definitions. I am the definitions. We also have desks that face away from each other and computers. My partner likes to do lengthy drawn out explanations where as I like to answer the question quickly and effectively.
Start of story: I had four chinese students around me asking questions and my partner had none so he was goofing off. As I was finishing answering their questions, three of my friends walked it. These friends are in a polygamy relationship with each other. The two boys walked in holding hands and the girl ran up to me and hugged me in the middle of a sentence. Having been used to this, I was able to finish explaining everything and then turn to them and say hello. Two of the chinese students had a look of absolute confusion on their face, one was blushing, and the other was staring at the two guys hands.
This is where things got weird. One of the boys likes to mess with homophobes and chinese students...not really used to homosexuals. So he grabbed his partner and kissed him. At this point I looked at my students and figured out what was happening because of the look on their face. I also knew what was going to happen next. Punched shoulder, girl goes to hug the hug the guy that got kissed and punched, other boy looks hurt and apologizes. That was about all my chinese students could take and walked off. This is were I kicked the boy that got punched cause it was all his fault.
End Story. I'm thinking about making it into a short manga, cause me telling it doesn't do the situation justice. And there was more to it as well. Oh Jamie, Kurt, and Delani. You amuse me a lot.
You know, I am one of the average Americans that watches the super bowl. But unlike a lot of the females I know, I watch it for the actual game and not the commercials. The half time for this one was the best I've seen since the Janet Jackson Fiasco. But I feel that this game is lacking the feeling that I got last year, which is a disappointment.
Last year, you had the saints. It was great! It was all about america! We are a nation of underdogs. We always have been because of the Revolutionary war. Honestly, we lost almost twice as many battles as we won. The only reason we won was because we kept trying and didn't give up. Thus giving us the underdog mentality.
So as soon as we get an underdog, we all route for them purely, but I think americans have just a little more faith and cheer harder for them. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to change my theme in myO. It should be an interesting one.
