I layed in bed for about two and a half seconds, and then decided that writing one more blog was of better use of my time. Because, you know, being alert and awake for chemistry and italian isn't very important.

Now I'm listening to AKON. God, I love that guy. I see you winding and grinding up on that pole, I wanna **** love? you, love youuuu. He's like, the next Usher. And I love Usher. He's the hottest black guy since... snoop dogg. Haha.

Aww, it was so cute. Today I got like ten emails from people in the Department of Peace, welcoming me to their group. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Seriously. I really hope I can be a good leader for district 19. I hope I don't put it off and never do anything with it. Peace is something that is really important to me, so it would be really bad for me mentally, I think, if I were to put it on the back burner.

I'm feeling like a dog in heat, barred in doors from the summer street. I locked the doors to my own cell and I lost the keyyy. Billie Joe is my idol. Did you know that Green Day is promoting protecting the environment now? So sad. I'm all excited about it because I'm an environmental science major. Hehehe.

I think Kerplunk and Dookie are my favorite old albums. And of course, how could I not like American Idiot? It brings back memories of Billie Joe trying to crowd surf at the Warfield over a bunch of weak girls. I TOUCHED HIS SWEATY HAIR and his buttt. Ohhhh. Am I lucky or what?? Sarcasmmm. If only it were Tre's ass that I could have touched. I can't wait until they go on tour again. I'm going to have to go out to Arizona or Julia is going to have to come here so we can go together. Green Day wouldn't be the same without her. I wouldn't have Mike's guitar pick without her. sighhhh.

It's funny how I go through little "phases" with music. Before I got mono in January, I didn't really care about music all that much. I did care, but it wasn't a big deal. After the mono went away, I stopped taking for granted the ability to enjoy music (because when I had mono, I couldn't look at, or listen to anything) and now all I do is hunt for new music to listen to. I talk about it a lot now too and I watch Fuse whenever I have time. I'm lame.

I need a hobby. <-- That's what my dad told me. I do have hobbies though. I think? I like to read, annoy people about peace and the environment, play scrabble, stalk people on myspace (lol), obsess over music, and write. That seems like a lot of hobbies to me. He wants to get me golfing lessons for my birthday. Ewww. I asked him if he was kidding me when he said that. Of course he wasn't. He just wants me to learn how to golf so that instead of taking me to Funworks to golf, we can go to a real golfing range.

COUNTDOWN:

26 days until my birthday.
28 days until FOB concert.
44 days until summer break.
99 days until new Harry Potter movie.
106 days until new Harry Potter book.

This is what I'm looking forward to in the next 106 days. Pretty exciting, eh?

I forgot to mention that I didn't have any weird dreams about food last night. In fact, I can't remember any dreams from last night. I guess that's a good thing because my subconscience is going insane with creativity.

I better go to bed. If I fell asleep right now I would get five hours. You know I won't fall asleep right away. I'm the queen of insomnia. At least no work tomorrow. Afternoon is the best for naps.

Arrivederci.
xxxxxxxxxxoooooooooooo! 

I don't know why I am awake. I am going to be dead tomorrow in class.

The Academy Is... is awesome! I really want their new album, but I neeeeed to go to Best Buy to get it. Best Buy is like heckaaaaaaaa far away and I doubt Target carries it. And Target is closer. Humph.

Ahh, disappointment. Apparently my insurance only lets you get new contacts/glasses every two years. I got my contacts a year and nine months ago. So I have to wait until July to get new frames. That seriously sucks. I haven't gotten new glasses in like FOUR years.

I'm listening to the older Academy album right now on my iPod (so as to not wake the family). I love it, it's so catchy. I don't see what's so sexy about guys in girl jeans and tight shirts. Well, maybe the tight shirts, but still. That scene-y look is so, gay looking. Hah. The lead singer of the Academy is the perfect candidate for a gay looking emo guy. He would be really good looking, even with the tight clothes, if he cut his hair. I remember the first time I saw one of their videos, I thought he was a girl! lmao. No offense to him, cause like I said, I love the music. Who cares what he looks like if he can sing something that moves you? I can't wait to see them live in May. I never thought about going to see them at a show before until the FOB tickets went on sale. Then, you know, I was all over it.

Cobra Starship sounds alright, I can't really make an educated decision on whether I like them or not because limewire doesn't have any of their songs. I'm not gonna go out and buy their album unless I'm sure I'm going to like it. And Plus 44? I downloaded a few songs and definitly wasn't impressed. I mean, isn't there two guys (Mark and Travis??) from Blink 182 in the band? Before listening to the songs, I was expecting something extraordinary, but I was let down. The singer doesn't seem to know how to sing. He just talks in a singy way and growls at the end of each line. Hopefully I'll like them in concert. Paul Wall (or something?) will also be performing at the FOB concert. To be honest, I didn't even know who he was until I saw him in the Brooke Hogan music video. But apparently, he made grillz big (or something). l need to download a few of his songs, or buy the CD. I want to be the only person there singing along to his rap (or whatever it is he sings lol).

I never tried to make the best of my time, when I thought I had plenty of it. Hold your head high heavy heart. Take a chance and make it big cause it's the last you'll ever get. I make plans to break plans and I've been planning something big, something big. <3

I don't update on the weekends. It's like I only update when I'm procrastinating or something.
Like today, I'm procrastinating on doing my chemistry lab.

Wow. Work today was insane. Phone call after phone call after phone call. The phone literally never stopped ringing. Not only that, but several people came in today to sign up. Today was probably the most hectic day since last summer. It was probably so bad because spring break is coming up.

I have one complaint about work and then I'll shut up: if you are a parent and english is your second language and YOU ARE NOT FLUENT, please please please have your child talk on the phone to me. It makes my life SO much easier because it gets so frustrating trying to figure out what they are saying. Because most of the time I am not comprehending what they are saying, I will repeat what they said to just make sure I have it right. I'm always polite when I repeat something, but the damn mexicans (yes DAMN MEXICANS! lol) get frustrated and snappy with me, like it's my fault I don't know how to speak mexican-english or something. Hellooooo, you're in America. Learn to speak english better. Or the other day this asian lady from stockton called in. I could tell she spoke english well, but I absolutely could not understand what she was saying because her accent was horrible. It was like nails on a chalk board, and I literally had to move the phone away from my ear. I mean no offense to asians, or mexicans, or whoever, but it just gets sooooooo frustrating so fast.

Tomorrow the Academy Is CD comes out. I MUST NOT FORGET.

The most embarrassing thing happened to me today. I had to give my Happy Birthday! speech in Public Speaking. I had the whole thing all memorized (well, it was an exemporaneous -sp?- speech, so my points were memorized) and ready to go, until this morning when I decided that it would be a good idea to change the introduction a little bit. Everything in the introduction was the same, just arranged differently, in a more concise and understandable way. So I gave my speech second today. I was trying so hard not to be nervous, but when I got up in the front of the class I was actually shaking. I don't understand what I was so afraid of! Why was I shaking?? lol. The first half of my introduction went well, but then I came to a transition that I had changed, and I forgot what was next. I stood up there for what felt like a good thirty seconds, my face filling with blood, my mind racing trying to remember what came next. Finally, the words came to me, and the rest of my speech went smoothly.

I guess next time I'll know not to change the introduction the morning before I have to give the speech!

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.
