What?! Is the sky falling down or something?

Really, life isn't that interesting. But who says you can't write about it anyway?

I am home.

Finally I am done with Winter Term. Only a few days until Spring Term starts, unfortunately. But it's my own fault for taking a class.

Move out was bad because it was pouring but otherwise it was quick. I was out around 11 AM and then we went and had Chinese. Wonton noodle soup for me...yum! Now I know that the easiest way to make them is to stick a whole shrimp inside of each one. My parents say that you can freeze them so you don't have to cook them all at once...sweet...

I just got my sister a pie. At least the store took credit cards because I was supposed to pay and I only had $10...oops.

Suikoden V is the best! Because it has cross-dressing. And the sweet castle too, of course.

RPGing is so much fun

I'm almost as far as I was in Suikoden V before I decided to stop playing it. But I'm much happier this time because I have most of the characters. The game is not worth it without all of them. ALL of them. And if I am sacrificing studying time, practicing time, and tanning time for this, it better be worth it. Meanwhile, I am still watching TV (but only sports...I'm glad I'm not watching the murderer's videos because that's what he wanted me to do so I am not giving in)! I will casually follow the NBA playoffs after catching at most 10 regular season games this year (though that might be better than the year before, sadly) and rail about only having a tennis highlight show when there is a Masters Series going on right now. But I enjoyed today's MLS game and next week is more Champions League so I am excited. But I will have to tape Tuesday's game because my test goes from 1:30 to 3:30.

Talking about cooking was a lot of fun yesterday. I hope I have time to experiment some more in the kitchen this summer. I really want to try making Spanish and Arabic food.

I took my first final today and easily passed. Now I was lazy and only did the minimum for the essays and completely messed up one section on the listening, but it was like nothing. Now that biochem final is going to ruin me. I need to be careful with orgo too. But I've recently been overwhelmed by apathy towards my studies. Hopefully Genetics is easy. I hate HW.

Broken Bones

First I started to obsess over this song because I was trying to transcribe this for my sister. Then yesterday's tragedy happened. And I can't stop hearing the song, even when I am not listening to it.

Broken Bones - Aqualung
Picking up broken words

Snipping the tips off
Grinding down the long ones
That wind around your eardrums

Dangerous plastic words
For crowd dispersal
And dumb dumb words
That could blow your head off

This is a story 'bout the three of us,
Down by the water and the tide is rising
This world is burning and I'm terrified
I need a little more time with you, oh
I just need a little more time with you

One fine day you'll sing
Your inevitable love song
Inevitable lie song
Inevitable cry song

Time bends broken bones
Time bends broken bones
'Til they wrap around your throat
And snap around your fingers

This is a story 'bout the three of us,
Down by the water and the tide is rising.
This world is burning and I'm terrified
I need a little more time with you ooo

Down by the water and the tide keeps rising
This world is burning and I'm terrified
I need a little more time with you
Oh I just need a little more time with you
Oh please just a little more time with you

I need to learn moderation.

I was so excited about eating dinner for real for the first time in three days (though it was only a JJ sandwich) that I totally overdid it. I scarfed down an 8" and roughly a cup of Ben and Jerrys Cookie Dough ice cream at around 8:30 last night. Which is why I am up at 4:44 AM posting about it. Because I feel like total shit.

One More Full Week...

I have one more full week to push through, especially with two group grades on the line. Ahh I hate group work when it is outside of class...

TV is good. MLS started on Saturday and I watched the Colorado Rapids for the first time that I can remember and it was fun. D.C. is always crazy. And Jonathan Bornstein played for Chivas USA and Sacha scored! That game was on FSC (which I don't have) but at least all the goals are on MLSnet.com (yes, crappy URL but what can you do?). Very nice, Sacha! Tennis is on, and clay season has started so points are longer, which was fun when someone like Ana or Tatiana is playing because they are so aggressive and like to take it to their opponents. And I finally saw Ana on TV for the first time and she is WOW hot and more Slavic-looking (which is nice) and her game is like Novak's, so that is definitely a good thing. Just not as consistent. Tatiana gets some plus points for playing nicely despite beating Ana. Just not happy with the whole ESPN2 only shows Grand Slams or U.S. tourneys because U.S. stars are more likely to be there. It's just...I wish I could see some of the clay masters, if only just the final...

Meanwhile Suikoden V is very nice after I've gotten through the extremely slow and boring beginning section. I'm about 10 hours in and I am determined to get all of the stars. Unfortunately I'm also a bit too dependent on a walkthrough, but at least I'm not using it to figure out how to fight...well at least not yet. I don't think there is a Suikoden VI coming out soon...but I do know that Xenosaga IV does exist! That is pretty exciting. Otherwise I'm sort of having a falling out with RPGs. I have very little desire to pick up FFXII, despite hearing that it is amazing, because it is not a sequel to anything that I cared about (FFTactics? That game was fun but I cannot remember the point of the game at all). I'll probably pick up the Valkyrie Profile game after I beat Suikoden V, and then the Tales game. And I don't feel guilty about that at all.

Life is good (for now)

Nothing philosophical here...just that watching soccer (Champions' League) and playing PS2 and passing my tests for orgo and biochem and having German as my awesome blowoff...it's been great. I also satisfied my urge to go to the Arb (and studied out in the sun for about 2 hours but I also lost my watch, which was unfortunate) and walk around a little barefoot in the grass... I like walking around barefoot on grass, as long as it isn't too damp or muddy. And there is so little school left...it's so damn exciting!

I think I'm going into one of those less "lesbian" phases. I'm spending much more time appreciating the beauty of men, and probably because of seeing Roma's prettiness so clearly on my recorded video than on that 4x4 livestreamer... Does this make any sense at all? I still think I check out girls' boobs (I'm doing pushups again to try and bolster my own haha), but sometimes boobs can just be too big. I was just site-browsing and I saw this picture of a girl covering her gigantic boobs with her hands and I thought, "She would look so much nicer if her boobs were half that size." But I think I randomly have a higher tolerance/attraction toward blonde women than towards blonde men. So random. I must be too bored.

Don't Look at Today's Date

Today sucks. Really. First I couldn't sleep at all, so I went to the bathroom and peed green pee. That was disturbing. I almost vomited at the sight of it. Then I was rummaging through my closet, looking for some food to eat, when I saw a cockroach crawl out of my Cheerios box, so I couldn't eat any of that and instead I only had a banana. Then I stubbed my big toe against the door and the nail almost fell off. It hurt like hell. Then, when I was trying to study for biochem outside, the seagulls decided that I was a great place to shit on. I had to wash my hair for like the third time. Then I tried recording some stuff and not only did it not work, it caused my computer to crash. It still doesn't work, so I'm writing this entry on a public computer. I accidentally ate two of my reeds while I was playing my oboe and almost choked and died. Then I tried playing some piano and I broke the whole lower octave. Literally the strings popped or something. I fled, pretending I did nothing, so I don't exactly know what I did. Lastly I failed the biochem quiz and I think I'm going to fail that test that is coming up on Tuesday.
