I'm sick. I didn't go to art history or physics lab. The average grade on the physics midterm was a 60. I got a 66. I felt badly because I did better than my friend who studied a lot harder than I did. She studied for like 5 days and understood how to do the problems better than me. I guess I understood concepts better or something I slept all day and now I'm not tired. I finished 7 pages of my research paper for history and I only have to hand in 5 tomorrow. Go me. I hope they don't suck too much. My brain seemed to have been working while I was in the library. I discovered that I enjoy the library now, since my roomates are all loud. At home I never need it becvause my room could get quiet enough but not here. I ended up with a first year seminar called "the art of being oneself" for next term. It's about putting yourself into your writing. Makes my schedule the following (I'm telling you so you can stalk me): Mondays/Wednesdays: 110-225 Seminar (The Art of being oneself) 240-355 Physics for Poets 410-630 Intro to Film and Film Theory Tuesdays/Thursdays: 11-1215 Buddhism: East Asian 240-355 American Civ. past the Civil War. Should be good. The block of time between Buddhism and American Civ should allow for some nice nap time/relaxation. |

Well, I'm more emo than I thought. That makes me sad. I don't like emo kids that much. I love my advisor. I told her about my english teacher woes and she told me that given my training I shouldn't worry about his commentary and should just work for the grade even if I know that what I'm writing is a piece of junk. Woot. That made me happy. I went grocery shopping, fun stuff! I got tons of yogurt and apple juice, my two current food passions. Iggy pop tonight. More fun. Also BUFFY!! |

I might not be a guy but if I were I'd have a big one. That's um, good to know. Last night I got some, yay. Something embarassing happened during it but I don't want to go into it. I'm over it, I think. I always focus on my mistakes but I'm trying to not do that this time. I'm sleepy and need to do work. |

I'm doing work. How cool of me. I'm actually doing research which I've been needing to do for a while. I'm so lazy that my research topic for one class is actually the stuff I've learned in another. I get to use my textbook for art history for my english term paper. Yay. It's not too hard at all. I'm sure it will be painful to write but that's okay. I'm in a good mood now, I've listened to some good music and relaxed. I learned about two bands - The Unbelievable Truth and Jump, Little Children. Yay for people who educate me. I might go over to a male friend's house in a bit but I am not sure. He's not home yet so I don't know. That would be fun though. I have "What's the story mornin glory" in my head. Ahh, Oasis. I like them because they don't pretend to be any good or original. I'm off to do some more research... |

I'm staying in tonight because I need some work to do and I'm all tired. I've been exhausted all day - I haven't been sleeping well. Even when I nap it's not a deep sleep. Hopefully I will sleep during Thanksgiving break. Rebecca doesn't seem to be mad at me any more which makes me happy. I was going to see The Man Who Wasn't There with her but we're both too lethagic to move. I napped twice and have been reading art history texts for my research paper. I might have to go to the library again tomorrow. I hate the library. I think I figured out my final schedule for next term. I will be taking the following: -First Year Seminar(Don't know which subject yet, probably The Summons to Adventure which is about creating new worlds to explain your own ie Gabriel Garia Marquez) -East Asian Buddhism (I love Buddhism.. This one I have to go through a process to sign up for and if I don't get it I'll be sad) -Intro to Film and Film Theory (Finally, a film class!) -Physics for Poets (Still sucks!) -American Civilization past the Civil War (I never learned American history from a good teacher and you have to take this for an American Studies major which I think I want to be). I will have a lot of reading but all those classes sound really interesting. I'm excited to watch SNL. I love my Jimmy Fallon, plus Gwyneth Paltrow is the guest star. Go Spence alumn! |

Well, tonight kind of sucked. I smoked up with Meghan because she asked if I wanted to, and I always want to. Plus I was in a bad mood and thought a little highness might make me feel better. I had a few hours before I had to serve beer for wbar so I figured I was fine and didn't think anything of it. So my away message said something about me smoking up and Rebecca, my co-beer girl, saw it. When I told her I was coming up to her room so we could head over she asked what it meant and I told her hat I smoked a little. She was really, really, really mad because she thought I was being irresponsible. I didn't think I was because I can handle myself just fine when I'm high. So she was mad at me and might still be, I'm not sure. We didn't end up having to serve beer anyway so it wasn't even like I messed up. I felt bad and understand why she's mad but I'm not sure that I really think it's a big deal. Either way I felt bad. Rebecca, our punk friend and I ended up gong to a party after the wbar concert. It was insanely crowded and not so fun. I talked to punk friend afterwards about why Rebecca was mad and she made me feel better which was good. Now I'm eating apple sauce. | ||||||||

Now I'm not sure if I think he's cute. I could probably go either way. The play was awful but dinner was fun. | ||||||

Getting ready to go out to dinner with the guy that found out that I liked him and Rebecca. They're friends now. It's cool. Then off to see Much Ado About Nothing instead of going to Stereolab like I should be. | ||||||

okay now I need to ignore the weirdness in my life and discuss how Joss Whedon = God. I saw him speak at a graduation once and I was like 'wow this man is god' and now it's definitely shown. I love buffy so much and I always have but oh my god! And I can't believe they had Buffy and Spike kiss! Holy geez! It was so fucking awesome. I haven't gotten over it and it's about 8 hours later. I can't find the 'where do we go from here?' song but I got 'rest in peace'. SO GOOD. And what's up with next week, Giles and Anya?? Craziness! I need to see next week's now! By the way, the number of exclamation points I just used stems directly from the 5 hours of art history reading that I just did. Anyway, that was such a great episode! I am excited as hell for next week. |

Strange things are going on. Some people that I don't want to read my lj have been reading it, including a guy that to whom I was attracted (refer to October 19th's entry). Someone from the radio station somehow found my lj and showed it to him. It's all very weird. Someone also called my friend pretending to be this guy but it wasn't him. He wanted to get into her dorm room. Weird weird weird. I need to get some work done |

Got some stuff done today and watched Buffy the Musical, which, by the way, rocked. It was monumental in the history of Buffy for plot aspects alone. I'm still getting over it. I really worship Buffy. I actually got library books and wrote my prospectus and voted! Woot. |

Had a good evening. Am currently drunk. Went to dinner with Karl and then we watched Saving Silverman which was absolutely terrible but sort of funny at the same time. I then went with his roomate Kendra to this weekly party that I mentioned yesterday. The Strokes were supposed to be there, as were the Moldy Peaches. Kendra and I ran into the m.p.s, who, by the way, suck, beforehand and they didn't seem to say they were going. Then there was no strokes attendence and it was mostly empty. My annoying friend joined us at the party and the evening seemed to hit an all time low when Moby walks in and starts hanging out with a group of us. Well, I've officially hung out with Moby. I rule. I spoke to some other random guys and danced around. I have a headache from all the whiskey sours. Richard Hell book signing Wednesday night. Woo. |

it just gets worse and worse. I had a peanut butter sandwhich for dinner and I had been hungry since. however, i look like crap and have no money so I was unable to order in without making a trip to the atm. My friend wouldn't come with me to Tom's and I have been getting the feeling that she wishes she had other friends. I finally got the nerve to go outside looking like crap and all the 24 hour places are closed because Columbia has a long weekend. Grrr. So I went to the vending machine and am currently having a healthy dinner of sun chips and a charleston chew with some overpriced juice. And, the yankees lost which further proves my theory that they win when things are good in the American world. Tomorrow I am supposed to go to a party at a club that my friend is hosting but I have a feeling that no one will want to come with me even if I told them that the strokes are supposed to be there. |

I mess everything up I was going to go to dinner with him but that's no more. I wanted him to come uptown so that he could have dinner with me and then come back here afterwards since my roomate is gone and that's rare. However, he didn't want to go all the way uptown or something but I kept pushing him to and that just didnt' work. I said it would be okay to go to midtown as a compromise but it was too late. No dinner for me and now he won't even talk to me. I even explained why I was asking him to come up here and he doesn't even care. Then another guy who I talk to told me to leave him alone forever for no good reason other than that I drunkenly told our mutual friend that he (as he said to me) wanted to have a 3some which is apparantly untrue. It's not a good day At least my laundry is done. |
