eee.

yeah, i spent 152 dollars last week. bitch thanks? i don't know what i spent it on either. so yeah. i'm making this complex ass spread sheet that is going to keep track of all the deposits, and withdrawals made from my checking account, as well as my "petty cash!" or what i keep in my wallet. i don't see how in the hell i can spend 152 dollars in a week... this way, even if i DO still spend 150 dollars a week, at least i'll know what i'm spending it on so that i can more easily cut my spending, and budget myself. lol. oh well. right, as i go back to this.

btw, why do i never have anything to do on saturdays, but always like 3 or 4 things to do on sunday, so i make a point to tell everyone that i have something else to do, usually leavingmyself with no options because everyone thinks i'm probably going to be doing somethingelse. :P yeah. no. thanks. hi. what.

:)

as i usually complain about going to work. yeah i'm going in early today. money thanks.

ee. tired

man i'm sleepy. don't have to get up til after 10 sometime tomorrow though. more like 11 or 11:30 if i really wanna sleep in, so no reason to go to bed. oh well. soon maybe.

night all! sleep is good. :p

wooohoooo

tomorrow is payday.

ahh!

(yeah not exactly what i had in mind, this is to remind me to GO TO RADIOSHACK! later.)

i need to get a 40-50' speaker wire to connect my right rear speaker to my receiver, and
i need to get a 12-15' phone cord to connect my MODEM (yes i know, cable goes out sometimes) to my wall jack. that's farther than 6', but not 25' away from my computer. (if i sound totally random, forgive me. you probably won't understand unless your name is dave. :P

harumph.

i want to go to the mtv campus invasion on wednesday, but i don't know anyone else who's going. none of my friends like nickelback or default. :/

oh well.

yeeeah

exam week coming up. i really need to do my best to study as best i can, but i sort of doubt that's going to happen. i don't have to take the final in my vb class, all my other teachers require it, reguardless of grade. so econ one, i need to get a high C or above to maintain my B in the class, in calculus, i need like a B to keep my A in the class, in psych, i need a B to get a B, and in history of motion picture, i need an 80 to get a B, or a 100 to get an A. yeah i think i'll shoot for the 80. lol.

so the one day that i have my first 2 exams, my brilliant manager scheduled me to work all day that day. OOPS!!1. lol. so yeah! guess they'll be short a guy.. oh well.

so yeah, i have to go to work in a little while, sorry i haven't been posting as much in the journal recently. i'll try to remedy that. :) hope everyone has a great day!

cackalus.

yeah i don't want to do my homework. to do, or not to do. THAT is the question. i think i won't bother since he never checks. (cept when i don't do it, and he actually collected it last time. so yeah. he won't check it again tomorrow.) i'm so lazy. it r00lz.

:)

amused much?

i just noticed i click on the "amused" mood quite a lot. lol. it's so easy bcz it's one of the first ones on the list. and it basically states the mood that i'm in ALL the time. maybe i'll start looking for something different. :) yeah. hi! :D

what2do?!

was planning to be in baltimore today, but it ended up that we didn't go because of certain events that occured, preventing us from doing so. quite a shame actually. but that leaves me with nothing at all planned today. maybe i should go watch 'the scorpion king' with paulie! :P although that movie still looks absolutely horrible, and i don't know whether i can convince myself to spend money on something like that or not. :P maybe though. i was watching some of the trailers earlier, and it doens't look quite as bad from some of the clips as it does on the tv trailer. maybe that's just because the quality on the ones that i downloaded is so bad that i can't tell the cgi looks REALLY cgi'ish.

yes, well. ! hi. :D

Saturday, April 20, 2002

HI! what's up?! nothing here, i'm really hyper and upbeat, it's really wierd..

dinner! want dinner. huuungry. mm. EEE. :D no, i'm not high.

Friday, April 19, 2002

yay.

i was pretty proud of myself yesterday. i basically tuned up my (crappy) car. yeah i'd rather just buy a new one, but i replaced all the plugs, and i wanted to replace the wires too, but the only way i could get those for my car was to get them with the distributor cap too, so i went ahead and replaced the distributor cap, and the spark plugs and wires. was pretty good, considering that i'd never done it before. i was kind of surprised when it started right up. hehe.

yeah i want a new car, bad! my checking account is FINALLY starting to work it's way back up into something mildly respectable. i could actually put a down payment on something pretty decent right now, but my monthly payments would be REALLY high, so i don't think i'm going to even try to do that. want to have about half of the price for a down payment when i get a chance. hopefully that won't take too much longer, i was talking to manager yesterday, and i told him that i'd like to be working about 40 hours a weekthis summer if possible. if they can't give it to me, i may even end up working up front or something, i really don't know. we'll see i guess. AND i get my like 3 weeks average pay near the beginning of august since i've been there for so freaking long. with my regular paycheck, assuming i get some good hours this summer, that'll be close to a thousand dollars that week. which will be awesome! i'm going to get a new car soon! can't wait. :D

anyway! later for now. have a spectacular day! i'm going to go shower and go to work. yay. (blah)

Wednesday, April 17, 2002

aaack!

haven't updated in a while, sorry! just got home from school a little while ago. and my car started like bucking and acting all gay. felt like one of the spark plugs wasn't firing or something, so i got home and started to take them out, and the second one i took out was still all covered in oil and shit. hence, i was right, it wasn't firing. so, i should probably go somewhere and get new plugs and wires to replace (or so says my dad, the super mechanic), so i wanna do that. BUT i have an economics exam tomorrow morning, and i need to study for that like a LOT tonight because i really want to get a hi-b/a on that. gr. i think i'm going to just take my mom's car to school tomorrow and fix my car after class tomorrow. i want a new car. a lot.

ANYWAY, wish me luck with EVERYTHING. i wanted to go get a haircut tomorrow too, but i'm supposed to be at work at 1:30, and so i won't have time after i finish working on my car and doing all that other shit before i'm supposed to be at work. i hope i'm late or something so that i can call them and say "yeah tough shit i'm going to be late because i'm fixing my crappy car."

anyway! again. bye. :D

Monday, April 15, 2002

eesh.

why can't i get my mind on my school work and get it done when i need to? i have a vb project due wednesday, and a quiz in that class on the same day, and i have an economics test on thursday. so i should start studying for them, and i know that i should start studying for them, i just can't make myself study. why? i don't know how to get my mind on my work and actually get something done. it's annoying.

anyway, goodnight. getting some sleep.

Sunday, April 14, 2002

whoomp.

Apr 11, 2002 Test 3 105 100


that's a 105 / 100 on my calculus test. *excited* so now i have 2 A's, 2 B's, and that C in econ which i can most definitely bring up with the next test. no problem there. hott.

yawn

goodnight everyone.

Saturday, April 13, 2002

ok, so it's already like 70 degrees outside today. i think it's going to be sorta overcast today, but still very nice. and i get to spend the rest of the day at work. how exciting, eh? i really don't want to go to work. lol. although i guess that's sort of a regular occurance. but i neeeeed the money! my checking account has finally be going up fairly constantly in the last few weeks. it's nice watching it increase like that. yeah, i want to buy a car. i don't really know what kind yet, but i need a new one. i'm getting very tired of driving the pos that i have now. any suggestions? remember, i'm a poor college student, so i can't afford anything too expensive.

right, well, i'm going to go earn some (miniscule amount of) money. have a good day!

Friday, April 12, 2002

eek.

not supposed to sleep until 11:30 on a day that i have to work in 2 hours. :( oh well.

blackalicious!

i want a cd. lol.

Thursday, April 11, 2002

random thought.

this song owns.

sigh.

i don't want to go to work. and i hurt my thumb yesterday. owies. i got an A on the calculus test today, i'm sure. unless i made a lot of stupid mistakes, but the psychology test finally came back, and indeed, i (almost) did fail it. i got a (high) c. i don't want a c in there though, i want a b. if i get b's in all of my classes (other than vb, which is virtually a guaranteed A), i'll bring my gpa up to above a 3.0 again. not that that's very good, but considering that one semester that i slacked off so hard, and got like a 2.02 or something, a 3.1 (which is what it will be, as opposed to the 2.85 or something that i have now) isn't that bad.

so yeah. i don't know why, but i'm very easily aggravated today. lol. right. i think i'll crank up some nice, upbeat music, and get over it. bcz work sucks, and if you go in with a shitty attitude, it can't get better. you have to start with a GOOD, positive, upbeat attitude. so yeah! hope everyone has as nice of a day as i'm going to at work! < /sarcasm >

calc much?

it's good that i got up at like 9:15 this morning to work on calculus, but looked at it, and already know it. hm. now what to do? :) i should go back to sleep.

Tuesday, April 9, 2002

next semester (?!)

9:30 - 10:45 11-12:15 12:30 - 1:45 2-3:15
M Intro to Marketing Business Statistics Comp Hardware & Software
T Programming - Java Speech Financial Management
W Intro to Marketing Business Statistics Comp Hardware & Software
R Programming - Java Speech Financial Management


ouch. so i'm going to try 18 credits next semester. all basically really boring classes too. it's going to be a pain in the buttocks to keep up with all of them. though after this semester, i have 19 or 20 classes left to take. that's 4 semesters. if i knock 6 of them out of the way this semester, that'll only leave me with 13 or 14, which will make the following 3 semesters slightly easier i think. besides, though i've been in school for 15+ years, i've never really been challenged. maybe this'll do it for me. >:)

Monday, April 8, 2002

:D

i don't know what people say, but when you get out of bed ass-late, and sit around the house for hours at a time, you really do end up feeling all blah the rest of the day. i was like tha tmost of yesterday, specially yesterday afternoon i guess. i like having my shades closed, it makes it dark, and peaceful seeming in here, but it also seems to drain my mood, and/or my energy. i woke up at like 9:30 this morning (yes, that's early for me) when jeff called, and instead of rolling over and going back to bed, i got up and actually went grocery shopping, and out to lunch with my mom. sort of a regular thing when i don't have anywhere to go until late in the day, but it was kind of neat. bcz now, i actually don't mind getting up and going to school. sitting here actually is sort of annoying me,i want to get up and go do something! it's really nice. i think i'm going to have to start getting up early and going out to do something in the morning. yes. definitely!

so anyway! going to class, everyone have a nice day. and i'm getting my psych test grade back today too. hope i did well. :D anyway. hope everyone has a fantastic day.

Sunday, April 7, 2002

GRR!

i had been on aim for 11 days, and my power flashed, shutting my computer off. what a bitch. :P

:)

tee.

what to do today? i don't know! let you know later. i need a shower.

i need to get a life.

but quake owns. :)

Saturday, April 6, 2002

howdy!

i don't feel like going to work. actually i never feel like going to work, i don't even know why i bother pointing this out to myself, or anyone else for that matter anymore. oh well!

guess i should go grab something to eat so i don't have to eat at work tonight. i only have 3 dollars. lol. anyway! l8z!

:D

jerjer had a gooood day. started out pretty lame, sat around playing quake this morning. wasn't doing very well either. lol. but still amusing. anyway, talked to dave around 3 or something, and he and jeff came over here for a while.. while they were over here, laura called, which was a very pleasant surprise. she came over for a while also, and we went out to get sushi for dinner. dave, jeff and i enjoyed it i think, but i don't think laura liked it that much. i actually felt really bad. :| but that's okay, cuz afterwards we went to friendly's and got a LOAD of icecream. that was a ton of fun.

also, to add to the pleasantness, i talked to megan for the first time last night in like... several months. it was really nice talking to her again, kind of wish it hadn't been so long before, but it was. hope we can keep in touch like we should.

ALSO, i was playing quake again tonight, and i got called a bot again. and i doubt many quakers read my journal... but that's like the ultimate compliment. someone telling me that they think i have computer-aided aim. which is great. :) and no, i don't. haha.

so anyway! very amusing, lively, fun filled day. thanks for asking.

buenas noches!

Friday, April 5, 2002

what to do today? i should just keep it as one of those "sit around home and do nothing" days... those are nice after you've been busy more or less all week. although i suppose i get tired of them after a while, since that's basically all i do anyway. :) and my elbow was fine at work yesterday, although it hurts again now for some lame reason. anyway!

i'm going to go shower and prepare for my day of nothing. have a good day!

Thursday, April 4, 2002

ugh.

wee, work. and i did something to my elbow earlier, so it like hurts to lift anything. i don't know what i'm going to do when i have to do all that lifting at work. lol. use my right arm i guess.

right, oh well! guess i should go get dressed now. have a good day, world! :)

Wednesday, April 3, 2002

bed.

sucks going to bed early. i still have some calculus homework that i haven't done yet, but i seriously don't think i'm going to bother. we're still doing the same damn thing that we've been doing in there for like 3 weeks now, and it's so easy. he never chex0rs it, and if he calls on me, i can usually just make it up on the spot. yes, it IS that easy. i love being a math geek.

anyway! school from 8-10:45, lunch out w/ mom probably, then work from 1:30 - 10 tomorrow. then NOTHING on friday. i'll have to find something. don't know what yet, but i'm sure i'll come up with something to do. i'll pester dave for a while if nothing else comes up. (prepare yo-self, biztch. (no, i don't know how to pronounce that, but it felt right at the time.))

!

i think i actually did fairly well on that test. because i knew what the 16pf was, and that the proprium is the same concept as "the self"

so yeah! sweet.

still not the best day though. i've just been in one of those "i don't want to do anything" moods.

fail much?

yeah i'm going to fail.

eeeeek.

ugh. it's too early to be awake, let alone go to work.

Tuesday, April 2, 2002

procrastinate much?

it's great when i have a big exam tomorrow at 2pm, and i haven't even cracked a book yet. yeah it's psychology, and i got a 65 on the last one. although he curved that to a B, i still consider a 65 a pretty low grade. ANYWAY, the test is tomorrow at 2pm, and i have to go to bed at like 11 tonight, because i have to get up at 6am tomorrow morning and work until 12. no, i won't have a chance to study between getting home from work, and going to class, because my grandmother is leaving, and i have to see her off, and eat lunch... so yes, i should most definitely be studying right now. but i'm not. why? i don't know, why do you procrastinate? you know you do. everyone does. i personally am just still a bit lazy. that and i get my best studying done at the last minute. (that's called rationalization, it's a defense mechanism. i come up with a "rational" reason why i do something, so it should seem right.) (and that second part is intellectualization. i try to come up with an intellectual reason for doing something.. it's another of the defense mechanism's... like denial. i just don't deny that i'm lazy. i accept it. :)

so! i'm going to procrastinate more, until pretender goes off anyway. then i'm going to make an attempt to go study. wish me luck! :P night.

Monday, April 1, 2002

gr. so begins my week of getting up early again. start off tomorrow, i have to get up really early and go take a calculus test again... no, i'm not studying for it, it's calc. easiest subject in the world thanks? and wednesday, i have to get up earlier to go to work at 7am, and then thursday i get to get up early again to go to class at 8am. exciting life.

so yeah, since i have to get up ASS early tomorrow, i think i'm going to go ahead and start thinking about going to bed here in the next half hour or so, so i figured i'd say goodnight! to everyone. lol. or myself. someone post a comment so i know that people actually read this. :) nighters.

php anyone?

php is annoying.
i guess generally it's a good idea to go to bed before 4 am if you have to get up at any reasonable hour of the morning. i don't want to go to class today. *yawn* eee.
