Some of you noticed that I've been away for quite a bit the last couple of weeks. I attribute most of my absense to the fact that I'm staying on campus and don't have access to computers/internet (or want to access computers/internet to chat on aim for that matter). A lot of things have been going on with my life. Some good, some bad. For the most part, I've remained positive throughout all of the things that have been going on and my positive attitude has proved to be beneficial to me.
On Tuesday I went to try to drop ochem. Under Dan's guidance, I decided not to drop the class last Friday since I already had a signature which was supposedly valid for 10 days. No good. I had to get the dean's signature instead. So after walking back and forth around campus 4 times, I ended up at the Engineering Counciling office where I had to petition to drop the class. Two days and a lot of lost studying time later, I finally got the petition granted and got to drop the class. Which is bad because I shouldn't have even been in my situation, but good because I talked to Vivi last week and shes going to be taking Chem 51A and 51LA next quarter too so I get to take it with her! 
On Thursday I left home at around 11:00PM to go to John's place and study for my MAE midterm on Friday. Unfortunately for me, Thursday was a holiday... a holiday I couldn't enjoy. We spent a lot of time just trying to stay awake and laughed a lot (for reasons I forget now) but we talked, studied and slept. 
Well, I slept on the floor for like an hour or two. We ended up studying a lot of midterm one stuff, but we got in some midterm two stuff and several games of Hook, Line, and Sinker. We stayed up the entire night and took the midterm in the morning on Friday. I hope I did ok. 
After that we slept for a bit. Well, John did and I played more Hook, Line, and Sinker and Starcraft while he slept. We worked out on Friday as usual. We played basketball (Zach came along this time 
) and I ended up jamming the crap out of my index finger trying to save the ball. Lifting was decent, but really rushed because we got there late (we went to Pepboys to get some cheap techron, which I spilled on my sandal and foot.. 
).
I got home that night around 12:30AM and my mom didn't say anything to me. It was kind of weird because I had left over 24 hours earlier and when I got home no one really cared. At least I didn't either, so it was no big deal.
The weekend was decent enough. I went shopping with my sisters on Saturday at Old Navy (I don't like it that much) but they were having some crazy clearance sales so I bought a lot of shirts. My sisters had a coupon for 5 dollars off 25, so I bought like 5 or 6 shirts (2$ each
) and 3 packs of ankle socks (I needed them). Then I went to an officer's meeting and dinner for Zach's birthday. It was pretty decent. TGIF 
but for Zach, anything!!
Mother fucker is getting all emo and shit.
I was reading up on some forums today and decided I wanted to fix my car. I finally back-2-blacked the moldings on my car (yes, I did it alone despite the fact that someone 
made detailing alone not fun anymore) and then made up my mind to yellow the lenses on my fog lights. I headed out to craft stores after church. I hit up Home Depot (no good), Michaels, Joann's, then another Michaels. The Michaels had it but they only had blue,red,green, and purple. I wanted yellow. The Joann's was closed and the 2nd Michael's was closed so I'll probably end up getting the stuff next weekend and doing the "modification" then. No big deal. I ended up in a department store instead and was eyeing a jacket, but they didn't have my size. I'm starting to wear smalls instead of mediums...
Its crazy how we all evolve over time. I remember in Jr. High and High School I would wear Large all the time trying to hide in a sea of bagginess and then towards my senior year I began to wear medium and now I'm trying to aim for the smalls. 
Anyway, they only had the Docker's jacket I wanted in M-XXL, which is too big 
so I left with just a pair of shoes. I wanted something that looked cool, but sttled for a pair of New Balance. Pulling out shoe boxes and restacking them brought back some memories of Robert Wayne
.
This entry was more "tell you what happened" instead of "reflect on what happened" but thats really what you get when you try to summarize what has happened over the last week instead of posting individual thoughts as they occur. I've been way too busy to update this thing, but wanted to fill people in who are too afraid or impersonal to talk to me and only live as part of my life through my journal.
