All day... no, all WEEK I have been laying around my house doing absolutely NOTHING. I have been alone (plus!) and I've mostly done only what I want to do. It has been so, so, sooo very long since I have had even one day like that, let alone a week. Finals are bliss! I had to go Monday and Thursday (today) this week. Monday was regular schedule, and today I had my government final. I am feeling pretty good about things, especially considering I'm not failing anything. Because of laziness, I allowed my "for sure" A in english to drop to a B. Oh well. All my grades are going to be B's, and I might get one or two (hopefully not!) C's.

Today I think I reached the point where I'm getting bored with being by myself. Everyday this week I had at least one productive thing to do, but today I really haven't. Monday was normal, I went to school and worked at the driving school. Tuesday I worked at Victoria's Secret, and Wednesday I worked at the driving school again. Today, all I had was my government final. It was from 11:15 to 1:15, but Sorina and I both were done with the final and home by 12:30. So after that, all day, I have been a TV slash internet whore. My butt seriously hurts! Ha ha.

I watched the OC episode tonight. It was so stupid, yet entirely addicting. It was "Chrismukkah" in the Cohen household. Ryan and Taylor fell off of a ladder together and were thrown into an "alternate universe" where the world as they know it had been turned upside down. In reality, they were safe and sound in the hospital with friends and family waiting for them to awake from the harmless coma that they were in. The only way thay could wake up from this coma was to finish any unresolved business in the alternate universe. Pretty pointless, but interesting nonetheless. I can't imagine Summer being a bimbo.

My mom just walked up and scared the hell out of me! Oh, my god haha. It made me scream! I guess I shall get off the laptop now. Perhaps I will go to sleep, or maybe I will lay in bed and begin a new book. Choices, choices.

I'm so excited and in disbelief that in a week it will be over. In First Year Composition, I know I got an 'A', no doubt about that. In Statistics I have a high 'C', so I am hoping the final will bring it to a 'B'! That would be awesome. In Psychology I have a 'B', and in Government I know I am going to get a 'C'. The Government grade is pretty sad, considering I took AP American Government last year. I know I could have gotten an 'A' if I had come to class everyday, and read the book, but the truth is, is that Government bores the hell out of me. It sucks that I took it two years in a row. I should have waited until the Fall Term 2007 to take it, so that there would be a bigger gap. One 'C' shouldn't kill me because it's only a general ed class, although it is depressing.

For the Winter Term I am going to take Introduction to Music. It's only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 9-12. I am really looking forward to working a lot more, and making some moo-lah! And of course I'm looking forward to laying around and doing nothing (it's what I'm best at, haha). It sucks that the Winter Term ends February 3rd. After that I get a full schedule of fun and games for the Spring Term. I'm taking Chemistry, Italian, Public Speaking (ugh), and Logic. Logic should be interesting. I'm dying to know exactly what you learn and how you learn it.

Christmas is in twenty-one days! I'm already done shopping for Nishy, I might pick him up a few things here and there though before Christmas. I just need to wait to get paid this Friday. I should be getting about sixty dollars from Victoria's Secret and a 120 dollar check from the driving school. VS will cover my phone bill and twenty of the driving school money will cover gas for next week, so I'll have about a hundred to spend on gifts. I need to figure out exactly what I am going to get for everyone before I go shopping because I want to stretch every last dollar. I won't get paid at VS again until the 22nd, and my checks I get from the driving school every Friday won't be as big as this upcoming one for the rest of the month. If I can spend only one hundred and be done with shopping, life will be gooooood. I only have my mom, dad, Daniel and Chris to buy for. I want to get my Dad a few button up shirts for his birthday. I have absolutely no idea what to get him for Christmas. For Chris, I'm going to get him John Tucker Must Die and something else- I'm thinking maybe something for his new apartment. I need to go on eBay for Daniel and look up a few XBox games. I can't believe how expensive those are! It's ridiculous. I am not spending sixty dollars on one game. My mom will be fun to shop for; she gave me a huge list. I just need to narrow it down to a manageable few.

Nishy gets home from work in a half hour, and I want to get into this book I'm reading before he gets home. It's called Next by Michael Crichton. It sounds weird, but Crichton is a good author, so it should be good.

Normally, when  I used to blog at livejournal, I would update it all the time. But over the summer I just sort of stopped, and now that I have a Vox, I am having a hard time remembering and wanting to update. So I'm sort of just on here right now to make myself get back in the habit.

As of lately, nothing interesting has been going on. I spent Thanksgiving at my Papa's house, which was fairly unevenful. We had the usual: turkey, ham, mashed potatoes (the best!), cranberries, corn and so much more! There were about 20-30 people there, but maybe only ten of them I was actually related to. It was fun!

Over the weekend me and Nishy saw the movie Deja Vu. It was really, really good! I almost can't wait to see it again. For the past couple of months me and Nishy have become some sort of movie whores. We go to movies all the time now, mostly because there is rarely anthing else to do. We also usually movie hop to another movie. Before the New Year, I want to go see:

1. Happy Feet;

2. The Santa Clause 3;

3. Bobby;

4. The Pursuit of Happiness; and

5. The Fountain

Last Friday I also started my new job at Victoria's Secret! It was so weird. Usually when you start a new job, they teach you how to clock in and walk you through what you are supposed to do when you first get there. But, at VS, they completely ignored me. I had to ask someone how to clock in; after the girl was done showing me, she immediately walked off. So then I was just standing there, thinking: I wonder how I figure out what I am supposed to be doing? So then I (duh) asked the nearest associate how I figure out what I am supposed to do. Apparently, they post on the "Talent Board" in the back of the store what room everyone is supposed to work that day. I looked up my name and it said "VS". Very helpful, considering I didn't know what that meant. "VS" could mean Victoria's Secret, but after asking yet another associate, I found out that it meant "Very Sexy". This associate was nice enough to show me exactly which room that was in the store, and at this point I met my "Buddy", the girl that was supposed to train me. Train, HA! It was a joke. The most I learned was: greet every customer and ask if they need any help. If they do, help them. Oh, and try to get people to apply for the Angels credit card. So there I was, asking people if they needed help, when in fact I was the one in dire need for help. 

Time went by fast and I generally liked the job, but it was just sooo weird. I also worked on Saturday, which was a lot better. Kristy was my buddy that day, and she actually trained me.

I don't even know when I work again because they didn't schedule me this week! Thank goodness I still work at the driving school, or I would be broke!

Monday was really depressing because I unfortunately had to go back to school. College is nice, I love the freedom and flexibility it provides, but man, I really enjoyed my little four day weekend!

Today I didn't even go to school because strangely, both of my classes were canceled. Okay, so I lied, only one class was cancelled! I just didn't see any point in driving twenty miles for one class. I ended up spending my day in PJ's, watching movies on OnDemand and eating. Now that is the life.

Tomorrow brings school, work and I'm sure a plethora of homework. I still have to register for the Spring semester, so I will probably do that tomorrow too. I started to register about a week ago, but I was just so confused as to what classes to take, that I gave up. But I really need to get on it because all of the classes will be filled up if I don't!
