read assignment page and have decided not to turn in a hardcopy. She said to send it in an email, nothing else was said. So... *shrug*. I don't like to waste paper if it's possible. And I don't understand the hard copy AND email version. Waste of time. Besides, we had to send it to 2 emails, her's and her husband's just to make sure she got it.

Whatev. Might go try and sell back the spanish book that I don't really like. I will keep the other one's like the short stories and the one that I didn't read... who knows? Maybe I will want them in the future. So....

I'M DONE!!!!!!

So, this is an english translation of one of my stories. Whenever I can't understand it very well in Spanish, I look for a translation. THAT'S why I don't get it! It's INSANE!

and kinda gross.

This is what almost all of them are like, they are all about death, in a way. It's really short, a little over a page.

I should find a translation for you guys about La menuca menor.  I told Vicky about that one, she was creeped out. *shivers*

The latter part of the title is from 30 Rock. *dies* That show is AMAZING. The last 2 episodes were GREAT.

Part of the last episode, starring Matthew Broderick:
so, Alec Baldwin and Matthew Broderick devise a plan to create a 'gay bomb' to get themselves fired from the government. Well, 3 months later they have a prototype, and MB breaks the vial and the smoke goes everywhere. MB: I feel weird. AB: *looks at MB with smokey eyes* Let's do this. (meaning let's have sex, for those of you not hip with the lingo) HILARIOUS!

and this.

So, caught up on the 5-7 scenes that I was behind on in caliga(reading, I mean. I feel like such a loser, I haven't scened in over a week. Like, I scened with myself--that sounded weird-- last thursday.)

Also wrote 1 paper from the 2 that I have to do. It was the harder one, the one that I have to make up the entire story. Was hard. I sent it to my friend from class to proofread, but that's probably not likely. She said she would, but let's be realistic. Like she will.

Got really pissed last night when my sister called me to tell me that my brother's graduation ISN'T on the 1st like he originally told me, but on the 25th. WHEN I WILL BE IN ARKANSAS. ASS!!!! I really wanted to see that, and he fucked it up. So, now I will have to watch some crappy recording. My dad will probably film the scenery or some shit instead of the good stuff. *sigh* Oh well, I'll get over it.

1 paper and 1 final to go!!!! WOOT!  I got an ominous email from my teacher saying "If you don't have an appointment with me for your final project(paper), then good luck with finals!!" I understood that as, "If you didn't schedule an appointment with me, then you are fucked."

So. Guess who didn't make an appointment? 3 guesses.

have about a half hour before my replacement gets here (am at work) and I NEED TO PEE!!! (TMI?) We have to call for them to give us bathroom breaks. And the office is across the river. Hrm. Do I? No se.

My dad called to ask if I still had car payments. Here I thought he was making his way into asking if I wanted that paid off for graduation. Nope. He is telling me that I still have an account with a bank in Davenport that may still have money in it and I should use that to pay it off. Or save for a rainy day. He kept changing his mind. He thinks I still have about 600 in there, I think I have less. I think I remember taking my security deposit out of there 3 years ago. Hrm. Anyway, I didn't really expect my parents to give me anything large for my Gday. They HAVE paid for my education after all. But with a lead in like that, I got my hopes up. Stupid.

TX in a little over a week. Need to shop for clothes.

I think I am going to see if there is a bathroom in this building. (Usable bathroom. They are renovating it. Hence the really bad paint/construction smell that I've put up with all day. Hey, it's better than the previous eau de asbestos.)

Edit: A hole where a bathroom should be. There's even a sink. Where's the rest? DAMN THEM!!!! *shakes fist*

 1. Got a new body wash... hopefully it does not cause allergic reaction... I am allergic to something, some soaps have it others don't. I am always wary of new things, but you get tired of the same old thing, you know?

2. My teacher totally put his hand on his TA's knee today. I pulled a Jim face. The man is about 70, and she is 23. They are both married to other people. I noticed she did not have the slightest reaction, it was like she was comfortable with it. Too bad I am done with that class, It would have been interesting to investigate further. Harassment? Or just that the old man is friendly? Or is he... friendly and she likes it?

3. This kid came in bleeding from the knees today, he must have fell from his scooter. While we were giving our presentations, it was running down his leg. GROSS! I couldn't tear my eyes away. Dude! Clean that shit up! there is no way you don't see/feel that.

4. Total procrastination mode. COMPLETE senioritis.

5. Shows were okay, I guess. Could have been better. I feel like they are all going downhill. Although, I haven't watched Office yet...

6. Watched 27 Dresses. CUTE.

7. Am watching Misery. Why? I have no idea. Don't ask. I dislike Kathy Bates here. She is better as a snarky bitch, like in Six Feet Under. She is hilarious in that.

Think I am done. PS~ I watched all my videos, and a lot of them are crap. I suck as a camera person. and as a narrator. So does my 10 year old brother. Who insisted that his head, mostly the back, be in EVERY shot. *sigh* So will instead upload photos. Maybe 1 video to give you an idea...
will do that later.

NIGHT!

*sigh* Finished all Caliga scenes(I'M DONE!!!! I'M DONE!!!!! There were like 36 there!), caught up on all shows (except 30 Rock), and printed out my sections of the group paper to read from when I present tomorrow. Can't be persuaded to do more. Hate school... Will write other presentation tomorrow in between classes. Hopefully it goes as fast as I think it will...

Was GOING to go to the library tonight, but all of my papers were pushed back to next week. So, that wasn't good. Pretty much insured that I will not do them until this weekend. Turned in my notecards early though. She was pleased. Then I BSed my way through an pop-essay on that crap book that I never could read.

Ugh. Monday I will be done...
Ugh. Monday I will be done...
Ugh. Monday I will be done...

Slight scare about the trip. I texted Vicky asking about the dates (AGAIN, because my brain is all leaky) and she said the 1st or 2nd we will get back. Ummm.... my brother is graduating the 1st. And since MY graduation is at 930 in the morning, I figured his would be too. This had the potential to make us drive through the night. Was NOT looking forward to it. Then I found out it's at 5. AWESOME! I would blow it off, but my brother is valedictorian. He gives a speech. I want to see it.

Decided to start reading Pride and Prejudice. Don't know why, just feel oddly motivated. My mom has these antique books and I think I may try to read a few. I'm not sure if she has ever read most of them, or if they are purely for show. Me thinks it's a bit of both, especially lately. Speaking of, my mom's memory is a bit crappy as of late. She kept asking the same questions over and over, and I would get aggravated with her before I realized that I should hold my tongue. My grandfather(her father) had Alzhiemers, so she has been afraid for years that she would get it too. She went back to school, and she works all the time, because it has been shown that the more active you are mentally, the later it shows/slower it progresses. I felt like an ass.

Need to sleep, but am too awake. Crap.

PS~ All my shows kinda sucked. Is disheartening. But at least I don't have to wait so long for them to be good again(thatis, if they get better tomorrow..)

Okay. I am getting REALLY frakking pissed off here. I have spent over an hour searching for Six Feet Under screencaps, from the episode "Rainbow of Her Reasons." Can't find it ANYWHERE. I have 1 picture of the part I need, but I want more so that it isn't so boring.


GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I have searched countless places, googled a gazillion different ways, and even tried my powerdvd application to do it myself. Can't probably because the program I have is too old, or I just don't know how.


So frustrating. Seriously.

Okay, update? I have eaten a granola bar and 2 slices of pineapples today. Strangely I am not hungry. Fucked up the upside down cake, book said to flip after 5 minutes, but as Tommie informed me (in a rather 'I'm sooooo smarter than you' way), you are supposed to  wait  30. Hrm. Fucking cookbooks. Hate them. So, my brother gets a deformed cake. ::sigh:: I hate when things like that happen. So, made chocolate chip cookies, will see if those are to his liking (and my other brother)

Just remembered what I was going to do... look up what to visit in DC. Have been there twice before, so it's a little harder to see what we missed. Also was going to pack. Heh. How did I forget this stuff? No frakking clue.

Keep remembering various bills that I have. Sucks, because I need to save money. ::sigh:: I get paid halfway through the trip, I just don't know what I need for the first half. I only get paid maybe 370 every two weeks. Not so much when you add all my bills. I am going to try to pick up extra shifts. ::nods::

Did so many reports today at work. I figured Will would have so much to do anyway, that I would get them all done so he wouldn't have to worry. People have been slacking. Usually there are only 1 or 2, there were like 8 there. Yikes. Took almost the whole day. Will had to drop that one class, btw. I can't remember if I said this, but he came back to his class that didn't really have the understanding teacher, and asked when he could make up the test. The teacher made him take it right then. Needless to say, Will failed the test. He didn't really need it, it was an elective, but still. Ridiculous.

To Do:

2 presentations
3 papers
1 final

::Sigh:: Seriously? Getting pretty annoyed at my computer. Internet is being really weird. And I was about to throw this bitch out the window. Thank GODS it saved my post. I was so angry. And now I don't know what to pack. DOn't know what clothes to bring. Yeah. Fighting the urge to start weeping. I need to sleep.

So, I have to meet a person with my group today at 5 to make up fake stuff for our fake experiment. Stupid.
Then I have to go to work at 7:20 until midnight, then I wake up early tomorrow and present... then I go to work from 11:50-5. Then I have to make a pineapple upside down cake, then I have to pack.
Thursday I go to class and then drive to Dport to go for a eye exam. The possibly beers with my brother, Dane, for his birthday. Yay! on remembering to call him yesterday. (My family is weird about that. Some of them don't mind, but if I would forget my mother's? I would have been shunned for a year. That's me being semi-serious)

And then early the next morning I have a early flight to DC, and then various stuff that I have yet to plan (I know!). Saturday I have to call in and sign up for shifts. (I am kinda annoyed at that. The ONE week I'm not here. ::shakes head::)

Then I come back on Tuesday, no idea when, and then Wed I work and then I finish that week of school and the week after is my last.

I have Roxy from Dead Like Me in my head saying, "Why do you do this to yourself?"

"I don't know!"

Why did I volunteer to meet today? The other girl who does nothing could have done it. I could have gone home and taken a nap.

And right now I am trying to push off my essay that is due before 5. I hate writing spanish essays.

And here is a question I pose to you:

I have a paper due for two clases, and they are both for spanish. They both require that I write an essay on a story I've read. Is it bad to choose the same story for both? I am not going to copy and paste. I just really understand and LIKE this story. It is awesome.

She was talking to us yesterday and she said that they all talk to each other, so they would know if we turned in the same paper. But it's not right? It's not the same thing as printing out 2 copies?

probably one of my worst days at class. Was so unproductive. 1st? Didn't present in class, decided to wait until Wednesday(When I will have no choice BUT to present. as I am missing Friday and next Monday.) Then went to other class and had no idea what was going on. (but neither did anyone else, as that book is CONFUSING) So I really couldn't participate there.

Btw, everyone's presentation was like a minute long. Hee.

Feel a bit stupid today, as I was completely confused in last class, and didn't volunteer to go the first class. ::shakes head:: whatever, 2 weeks from today I am DONE!

So, yesterday Tommie's alarm went off. He wasn't here. So I got up and turned it off. 10 minutes later his second alarm went off. "seriously? SERIOUSLY?" Is what I said. Then got up and turned off all his alarms. So, hopefully that wasn't the reason he didn't get up this morning. Oops. But really, you disrupt my sleep so much, it happens all the time. Decided (in anger) to fix that, and then completely forgot about it until now.

Have work at 2 (I worked fri sat sun, then I work today, tomorrow, and wed. Hopefully they do not get angry, because I thought I would make up what I will miss in DC. We are only allowed to work 20 hours a week, and we are not supposed to go over, but as long as we are good at the end of the semester, we should be fine.) I am thinking I will pick up extra shifts during finals week... I have no finals(except that Monday) so I might as well (if I have enough hours to spare...). :D

To Do (today):
read! Read a lot!!! (4 chapters)
essay
group meet (Please don't forget.... please don't forget... I probably will.)
write proposal
email teacher about Tuesday's class

So, I went to the Art Museum. Eh. Might upload some pics later of the highlight. Was followed by security pretty much the whole time. That happens to me a lot, anyone else?

But, I picked up an old brochure of the VOOM portraits that were there. Apparently they are moving video, that move really slowly. I didn't go, forgot/thought it was going to be there longer... so I am disappointed. Had a whole bunch of actors involved. Haven't seem all of them, as they don't release all of them at the same time. Here is the link to most of the pics. Here is the list to all the actors that were in it. (Among them, Robert Downey Jr, Brad Pitt, Juliette Binoche--But I can't find her's-- Isabella Rossellini, Winona Ryder, Steve Buscemi, William Defoe,

pretty cool. I don't really know what it is, but whatev.

so, I work tonight, wherein I will do 2 powerpoint presentations, write an essay, and finish 2 chapters of a book. I may only get the book and powerpoint done. But here's to hoping.

Shots fired! Shots fired!

That's what this guy did on the radio yesterday. Hilarious. Public safety was like, "ermm..... should we respond?"

Clancy was just kidding of course. He is something else. He locked himself out of the IMU ramp once, and had to climb in through the window. I'm in the IMU ramp right now, and let me tell you, that is no easy feat. Especially with the broken leg he had. He said he had to climb onto the person's car to get in. hehehe

I am so tired. The kid I had this morning ran everywhere. I had to run after and pick him up and bring him back to where we were. Tiring. So of course I brought caffeine free pop with me. stupid.

need to read for spanish (which I have decided to half-ass read for. No translating, am just going to read through it, and if I don't get it, I don't get it. There are no tests and probably not a lot of quizes, so I am not worried. Too much to do, you know?) Probably doesn't help that it is a spanish version of Alice and wonderland.... going to be hard anyway. I don't care. graduating in less than a month.

Riverfest is here(no idea what that is, all I know is I'm going to be busy.). Have to go to art museum tomorrow, hopefully my painting is there, and not some stupid other exhibit.

Need to do 2 powerpoint presentaciones, 5 papers, group stuff... and there is more, I can't think of it though.

Starting tomorrow(I mean Monday. So tired.), I can buy my cap and gown.

I freaking love this movie. SERIOUSLY. Every time I talk to that kid in my psych class, I think of this movie. He has 12 brothers and sisters, and he shakes and gets really nervous when talking. He stutters, and is REALLY quiet. He also does that thing in this movie where the husband of the short haired girl is like "asdasdasldsjdj....dsdsasd...." I don't know how else to describe it, like muttering nonsense. The wife always interrupts when he talks, so he never really says anything, their children either. It's funny.

Here it is:








Just got back from class where we all said our favorite books. Ok, seriously, out of all the books in the world, The DaVinci Code? The Notebook? I understand Pride and Prejudice. But like 5 girls said the Notebook, and a couple said DaVinci Code. Ugh.

So, yeah. Just got out of my Psych class. Got a good grade on my paper. Funny thing, he was like "I only gave 1-9's on this assignment, even though it was out of 10. I just wasn't feeling too generous." I got a 9 and 1/2. Oh yeah. I really think I am going to get an A in this class. I am really excited. It's weird how the farther along I get, the better I do in school. It's how it always works out.

Anyway, we decided to do the Internet recruiting for cults as our research topic. Thank MERLIN this is only hypothetical. We decided we would run an ad in newspapers across, (where ever we find the most cults... there is a better name for that, I just can't remember it. I'll just say groups). for example, the midwest. Then we ask if they would like to complete a survey, send them it, and add up how many were recruited from the internet and see if that has been a big change over the years. Yeah, it's kinda cool.

So then we got off topic and Manaal, a girl in our group said that Facebook was like a cult. They check it at least 6-7 times a day. Me? Maybe twice a week. They were shocked. So apparently, I am "getting the shit poked out of me" later. Waiting for the emails....

Then the guy in our group asked me if I would participate in his study for his other class, and I did, I am sympathetic to all who have to do that. Recruiting is HARD. Turns out, it was a racism test. One of those that I learned about in class. You go here and It is one of those computer things that test how fast you answered things. CRAZY, and I was a little excited that I got to do it. I've heard about it for so long, that it was nice to actually DO it, so I understand how hard it was. I KNEW what he was testing, and I still got a preference for white people.

I don't think you can cheat that system. not unless you timed all your answers.

So we are meeting Sunday before the shift I picked up at the library. Convenient, because we are meeting there, and I work there. :) I think that teachers who want to have group projects should have a minimum of 3 weeks before the paper is due to assign group things. It is hard to work around 5 people's schedules. There is a girl in my group that is so nervous when speaking, she literally said UMM 206 times in her last speech. And that was only after my friend Julie started counting. Probably not the entire time. Poor girl. She hardly talks ever. And when she does, it is stuff that I have to shoot down. Like, recruiting people through the internet for our study. Ummm, that is biased. Especially when we are looking for  how many people are recruited through the internet. All we would get would be that result. And she made the suggestion to make a fake website and recruit people to a fake cult. Seriously? Has no one explained the idea of ethics to you?

I was so tired yesterday, I put my shirt on inside out, and didn't realize it until I got to work. hehe  

Has anyone figured out that email thing from Caliga? I got a few saying Pansy posted yesterday, but other than that, nothing. Help?


Dylan comes home around the end of May. Yay!!!!


Look at the mood theme. Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica. Love that episode.

EDIT: WHAT THE CRAP!   How does that happen? How does it work? Can she see out of all eyes? Eat out of all mouths?

So, no one has taken the shifts for my washington trip. Yikes, getting a little worried. I know it's still far enough away, but still. So, I took advantage of the group email someone compiled and sent everyone I work with an email. hehe. It was kinda funny since I just woke up and am in that goofy mood.

These shifts are not for a while, but I figured I would get this out of the way,

Friday May 2 Library W 2:50- 7:45 -Really easy, almost everyone goes to the E booth anyway (sorry Nathan S).

Monday May 5 Hospital Ramp 2 AUX 2-6:15 - No one sees this booth. Seriously, easy shift.   


Either email me back, or put it in the books. Thanks!

I guess the only funny part is the sorry part to Nathan. He is going to get that email too.

So I am off to class without 2/3 of my research done. I ran out of paper, and only got one article printed. BUT, I did come up with a good idea. So we decided to focus on cults, you know like the moonies and People's Temple, Heaven's Gate. Stuff like Living for Zion(Polygamist thing, kinda the same, the way they treat their members). So while researching, a lot of stuff is protected so I couldn't see it. I did find two articles that were part of a book that I couldn't print, but one was titled 'Recruiting on the Internet" So I think that is pretty interesting. I'd never thought of it before. That is actually kinda brilliant. If you can get online dating, and children to meet older men that say they are JTT, then you can do this. So, I am going to present that to them, and see what they think.

It's kinda like last semester, where we ran the experiment, except this semester we are just going to plan it, and write the paper as if we had run it. So, pretty much everything without the annoying testing, getting recruits, and STUPID SSPS. I HATE that program above all things.

Plus 2 of the girls I volunteer with are in my group. So, while watching Autistic kids we can talk about cults. hehe

Well, That is all I think. I need to go get ready for school, especially if I don't want Hermione hair like I've been sporting for the last couple weeks.

Just got an email from Old Navy saying that it is Road Trip time. How did they know?

So, I just got back from class. Had to write paper yesterday, and it was REALLY hard. How to stretch a page and half story into 3? Dialogue! (btw. Had to ask Vicky how to say that in English last night. Could only think dialogo. Progress!) Then I went to my second class today and we had to write something there. Can I just say how tired I am of coming up with stories? It sucks. I had to expand on a short story, change the ending. Let's just say mine sucked. ::nods:: Wednesday we get to read them aloud. Oh joy...

I work in a couple hours... going to watch Alias until then. Think I may start over. Around this time of year I get an Alias jones(? Right term? Whatever... I am using it) and need to watch it. Then I move onto SFU. It's a cycle. Then I watch my other shows over again.

Yes, I know. So interesting. Will be available tonight for scenage if anyone is interested. I get off work after 6, so around 6:45 I *should* be ready. I add in time for dinner and other such nonsense.

Pretty productive today, I finished 2 scenes, started a third and made plans for about a bajillion. Made an ass of myself trying to explain time differences, but I was trying to do about 5 things at once, so I'm over it. Ron is fun to write, I keep referencing cannon, and it is so great because I've never really been able to do that before because my other characters are all made up.

I made a Six Feet Under/Battlestar Galactica/ Veronica Mars mix of a mood theme. By made, I mean I mixed other people's mood themes. I have no idea how to crop and resize. None. There is also a random pic of Javier Bardem in there from No Country. hehe. I thought, well, when I see mood pics that I like, I will upload to photobucket and just keep addingto the multifandom thing. That way, I am supporting all shows. My hand hurts from all the copy/pasting and typing today. hopefully it stops by tomorrow, I have like 3 or 4 scenes to do then.

Am now catching up on 30 Rock. Why I find it necessary to constantly be watching something, I don't know. I need a new addiction. This one is getting old. (And my rather large dvd collection isn't supporting my habit, ntm Vicky had my netflix for a month)

We are watching a movie in class tomorrow, we had to go to a cafe and take note on the environment there, or ambiente. Earlier, I couldn't think of the word in english, and got excited. That happens sometimes. I think I dreamed a bit in spanish last night., That was weird. Also, I watched Hot Fuzz yesterday at work and felt a twinge uncomfortable when the swan was on. I had a bad dream about a cat attacking me, but not a duck of any kind. That was weird. (And I am now frightened of cats. Except probably kittens. They are okay.) Vicky linked me to a video of crazy cats, and I couldn't watch it. That is so weird and annoying. Why the hell was this dream so bad? I don't even really remember it, but it must have been bad.

And I am listening to Michael Buble, which I love. Need to go to sleep, though. Yawning constantly and I took Nyquil to ensure that I get some sleep, as I was up late last night.

which mood to choose!! I was so limited before, now I have limitless variety....

I am in love with Javier Bardem.



Ok, so obviously, I loved Love in the Time of Cholera. (trailer) The writer of the novel is Gabriel García Márquez. I just wrote a paper last week on a story this man has written. :D That was pretty awesome. I checked my syllabus and saw that we will read another before the semester ends.I think I will read the book after I graduate. MAYBE I will read it on the way down to Texas and squee to Vicky. Hehe. The only question is, do I read it in spanish, or english?

Ok, I just uploaded a gazillion new icons of him(Javier). Heh. I know he was the creepy killer in No Country for Old Men, but IDK. LOVE.

It helps that he has the BEST accent, and when he talks in english, he doesn't do it so well. I understand his problems (like saying the word over instead of on), because I have the same problems, but in spanish. I am going to search for him speaking in spanish, I haven't heard it yet. This is my first real Spanish-man crush. I do like Gabriel García Bernal, but not so much as this. 

The only problem with the movie, in my opinion, was that it was in english. It would have been SO MUCH better in spanish, since the book was written in spanish. I hate that whole, we have accents but are speaking in english thing. They try so hard to make the accents fit. Might as well do it in the actual language. Kinda like the Phantom of the Opera. It takes place in France, but only 1 woman has a French accent. Stupid.


That is all. Sorry for the squee-spam flist!

edit: OMG. I looked at his oscar speech, and he spoke half in english, and half in spanish. He dedicated it to his mother (and espana), who he brought with him. ::sigh:: I love him.

At work. Have severe writers block. I have one scene in my head, ONE. Can I get it out? No. I can't. My brain refuses to think. Stupid. ::shakes head::
Thank Hufflepuff people seem to be posting, I can at least read. All I've wanted to do lately is watch movies. Seriously, I have an addiction, it is bad. I have rewatched all my shows lately, so I can't do that. Hrm. ::giggles:: I have Prom Night coming in my netflix tomorrow. Heeeeee. We'll see how awfully bad this is. I know the movie has all the potential for being lame, but the new Prom Night looks good to me. The trailer for it was done REALLY well, so I think I am going to make Vicky go see it with me. ::nods:: good plan.

I was looking at the syllabus for one of my classes and saw that I already read one of the stories for one class in another class. It's about DAMNED time!!!! Do you know how many I have read? Seriously, a lot.

Found new headers, and most of them were VM's, but unfortunately they were actually banners. I hate when people mislabel stuff. Gets on my nerves. Right now I have Mason from Dead Like Me. It is kinda sad, but I don't care. It fits me right now.... even though he is sorta dressed as a clown. ::shrug:: Not that noticable.


I may post a lot today, so here is your warning now flist. I am RATHER bored.

So I read my spanish story really quickly, and had about 2 hours to do nothing before class. So, I caught up in my readings on Caliga, and ate at Brueggers. Yum. :D

There are 3 news vans outside, I wonder what the hell that is about? Probably the "shooting" yesterday, which is a LONG story. People are really annoyed that they warned the campus of it when it wasn't connected to the campus at all, but I say, better safe than sorry. They didn't know the details, and they did the right thing by warning instead of waiting like VT. The only thing I really have a problem with is that when they did figure it out, they didn't say specifically that it was safe to go to class, they just said there wasn't a threat to any buildings. Yeah, that doesn't rule out what happens when I walk to class....

So yeah, the story actually contains embezelment, cocaine, guns, a whole family dead, a fire and a car accident. which got me thinking, the family was said to be shot, but then they said that that is inconclusive, so what happened? They were shot with that weird air gun from No Country for Old Men? (I have weird thoughts)

Yeah, I was talking to V yesterday before we got the details, and was wondering 1st: Why the hell is a 40year old man shooting on campus? and 2nd: Why is he doing it so early? It's not exactly prime time... unless he was shooting at a specific person.

Enough of that, EVERYONE is talking about it.

So, Sam and I watched Signs yester, and in the middle of it there were girls screaming from outside and Sam turns to me and goes, "What was that?!?!" All panicked. So I turn to him and say, "Sam.... I live next to frats." I talked to a guy that I know that lives there today and he said it was because he and all the other boys walked in on a guy and a high school girl and started cheering him on. ::shakes head:: ridiculous. Not to mention he is a junior, so that is gross.

We then watched The Constant Gardener. ::swoons:: Ralph Fiennes is amazing. I love him. While we were making plans to watch this sunday, my dad goes, "Ugh, that movie is awful. The woman doesn't actually like him, and she cheats on him with everyone, and dies(no spoiler here, she is dead before it even begins) while she is cheating." Me and Sam looked at him and said, "Um, dad? You obviously didn't get the movie AT ALL."

Things to do this week:
Paper for SpanAmer short story
Paper for Psych
Read for Analisis
Pick up remaining food from Vicky's
Growl that Lost isn't on until the 24th.
SLEEP

And have I mentioned that my kitchen is AWESOME!!!!!!!

Yeah, that shooting happened last night, and I guess they decided to warn the students because they hadn't caught the shooter yet. Then they sent us a message saying that they didn't think it was a threat to the university and that they found a burnt van with one occupant, but they didn't know if it was the right van. So, weird day.

I skipped my first class and my second class was canceled. Hopefully, I wasn't the only one to skip that first one, but seriously, I didn't feel right going in. Not to mention my brother was here and he was still waiting for that girl to meet him here. We went to Walmart, got groceries for the week and a tea pot. :D I am all about the tea right now. He works at Starbucks, so he gets free stuff all the time. He was getting coffee, but he now has so much of it, that he switched to getting tea.

Now I am watching Celebrity Poker with Michael Vartan, Sarah Silverman, Matthew Perry, and Stabler from SUV. Interesting.... Michael Vartan is hot, that's all I know. I'm waiting to go to work later, and I will bring my computer to write my paper and speech for psych tomorrow. Seriously, I feel like I am in a speech class, that's all we do lately. Annoying.

So, tonight I will make dinner with Sam in my new kitchen (:D:D:D) and watch The Constant Gardner, and maybe something else. Hrm...I will have to figure out what movie I want him to see. I have been pushing Motorcycle Diaries which I KNOW he will like, but he doesn't seem too interested.

It feels like it is 3pm, and it is only 12:30. gah. I am going to do some research and eat lunch and go to work.

Ohhhh. Just saw a movie preview with Kristen Bell, Forgeting Sarah Marshall. I am so excited that she is branching out. She needs to get into more movies if she wants to stay in the biz, less tv shows even though I love her tv stuff. (hehe, like I have any idea what I'm talking about.)

And, usually these movies are lame, but I think Prom Night looks really good. May just be that the trailer was made really well, but it has potential. Too bad that girl from Niptuck and Hairspray is in it...

Apparently there is a SHOOTER on campus, says my hawk alert. CRAZY. I tried to call Vicky, but she hung up on me. So I sent her a text message. She doesn't have class until 9:30, so I bet she is at work. She doesn't live on campus, so I'm not too worried. Maybe she's still sleeping.

My dad called me, he got the message first. I bet he FREAKED out. This is so strange. It's a  white male in his 40's in a 98 Tan Toyota Sienna van. They give the license plate and everything. What's weird is it doesn't say classes are canceled. I am NOT going to class though. Seriously, no. And my brother is literally driving up here now. I told him to meet me here, and we do live by a couple frats and the art buildings, so it is kinda on campus... but I will tell him to rush inside.

I wonder if anyone got hurt... will check the news.
