1:50 pm - Thanksgiving Break Can Not Come Fast Enough
|
Neither can Christmas Break for that matter.
I've been feeling really overwhelmed by all this math lately. I dont feel like I've been doing well at all throughout the semester and its starting to piss me off. My reminding myself that this is my last math class doesnt seem to be helping either.
I'm just so behind in my homework...and I didnt do well on my last quiz...not to mention 2 others. So I've reached my limit to drop(we get to drop 2 of our lowest scores). God math sucks...however invented Calculus should be shot. Repeatedly and again just to make sure they're good and dead. And just in case this person is currently deceased, resurrect him and kill him more slowly this time.
Stupid mathematical bastards.
GGGGAAAAHHH!!
I could not rant enough right now. No amount of ranting will cease this feeling. I hate this. If I only had math this semester to focus on I'd probably be doing alright in it but I have Vertebrate Bio with a lab included and two other classes and GAH!!
I'll stop now while I'm ahead of myself.
current mood:  aggravated

10:13 am - The Pointless Ramblings of Heather
|
"Stay" he said in his husky voice.
If only I had...haha. I hate it when good weekends have to end. Blah. Now I get to go back to my ho-hum experiences at this university.
I've got a test on Tuesday night. Haven't really studied for it yet either. Need to do that tonight. Ive got a math lab due tomorrow that I'm not looking forward to working on. Gah! And I've got a stupid dialoge due Friday in American Indian Lit. I HATE PROJECTS/DEBATES/ORAL REPORTS...lets face it, I hate anything that I actually have to put an effort into. Grrr...
Boy I'm a winner eh?
"Reading Stones from the River on the Rooftop
Sipping Stiff Lemonade Tonic Vodka
Everything's Gonna Piss Today..."
Haha..Iguana let me try some of his Wiskey and Coke. It wasnt the greatest coz it was a little strong..and he offered to make me a weaker one, but they were out of ice.
AND I was gonna get Lindsay's mom to pick me up a pack of Schmirnoff Ice, but she forgot about it. Curses!
Meanwhile, we (Angela and I) are on a mission to get Eliza out of Towers next semester so she can live over by us. Otherwise she'll be sucked into the deep black hole that is Towers-life. Well, at least the black hole that results on her floor. Shes now a full-fledged alcoholic. At least to us she is. She drinks almost every day of the week...and now she's smoking. Ugh! Bad stuff!
I have math in about 40 minutes. I'm bored. Can you tell?
I'm gonna go play a game now.

3:55 am - Action!
|
3:22 am - Oh My God
Went and saw Oh My God tonight. I'd been very excited about that show for awhile now. They were here 2 months ago at the Boheme and I couldnt go coz I had a damn Vertebrate Bio test the next day. Stupid 310 class.
But tonight was a good show. They opened up with a song that I recognized and then went straight into Action! Haha..that song amuses me.
Billy as usual was very explicit in his actions. Dancing around the stage as is his style. No springy shoes this time. And he didnt make so many lewd guestures as his last show I saw him at (when they opened for ManPlanet last spring). But he did make a point to hump the floor tonight and make eye contact with a few people throughout the show.
He and I shared a moment during "Reading Stones" in where he sang "Marie" and looked at me. Haha..
So I wanted to stay around afterward to get the guys to sign the Action! cd that I bought tonight. (I've had the Well album for awhile...hehe, now that one's out of print. I'm glad I bought it at the first show I saw them at.)
Well..I went up to Iguana and got him to sign the cd. He was very nice and talkative. Then this other guy needed to use my sharpie to sign his cd as well.. The guy asked if Billy would mind us going up to sign our cds and Iguana told us to go right up there-Billy would be happy to have us.
So here we are walking up the back stairs of the M-Shop and this stupid guy who works there was like "what do you guys think you're doing?" Calm down buddy-we got permission. *sticks out tongue*
We went in and Billy was happy to see so many people coming to talk to him. We all sat down and he signed that guy's cd(the guy's name was also Billy but I'll refer to him as B2 from now on) and his girlfriend's elbow. Then I moved over so Billy could sign my cd. B2 was telling us about this party he was throwing and invited us all to go..and Billy mentioned going over to Jim's house. Jim is a roadie or something.
Well B2 and his group left and Billy and Brandon-the drummer, asked us if we wanted to go to a party with them. Eliza had left before the show even started coz shes stupid like that so it was just me and Angela. I looked at her and let her decide and she said "sure why not". Woohoo!
So we helped them load up and got in the van.
Well we get to this party-and it, sucked. There were a bunch of people there that didnt know anyone else. Billy walked in and motioned us forward and introduced me to everyone. He'd picked up on my name very well. Haha.
We had an interesting-if obscure-conversation with Billy about relationships and porn and cheating...mainly Billy was just rambling on about stuff. But it was funny.
Then he wandered off and we ended up sitting for awhile. Several times we were asked if we were having fun-they didnt seem to be too concerned with whether or not anyone else was having fun..but checked up on us quite often. Billy, Iguana and Jason(a roadie) were constantly asking us if we were enjoying ourselves.
And we were asked often what our majors are. Billy actually asked me in the car.
But by the end of the night we were outside getting ready to leave(this really nice guy Joel-who's a friend of Billy's from college gave us a ride home) and Billy came over so I could keep him warm.
I got a picture with him and he gave me a hug. I told him that my middle name is Marie and he started singing part of "Reading Stones" where the name is mentioned. Hmm..interesting.
He gave me a hug and kissed my cheek before I left.
Aww..
So all in all, I'm happy we went. Even if it was a lot more low-key than I had expected it to be. But in a way it was good, coz I felt safer that way.
But they're coming back in January. So I'll go then and bring Angela along. And then they're gonna play at the M-Shop in March..so I'll go to that one too. Told Billy this, so now he knows to look for me. Hopefully he'll remember me...but he repeated my name several times tonight so it probably wont be a problem.
Billy's a very nice man, he's just a little eccentric on stage. but its all about how you present yourself, and he's just a little dramatic.
i'm glad we met them.
it was a good night.

10:46 am - oh my god.
|
Woo! In about 5 days I get to see Oh My god for free! Woohoo! Jessa was so kind enough to call into the radio station and "win" tickets for me. Actually, no one was calling in so they just gave them to her...haha! So my name is now on the guest list and I can bring a friend. Hehe.
Only one problem though: I dont know who to take. Should I take Kate: no-she doens't like them. Lindsay-No, she's going home this weekend. How about Jessa since she got me the tickets anyway? Well she can get in for free already. And I'm not even sure if she wants to go or not. Hmm... So that leaves Eliza, Tasha or my Dad. lol but somehow I dont think my dad will appreciate the lead singer Billy contorting around the stage like he's high or having sex. haha. he wouldnt get the idea that its just for the shock factor and that he's into theater outside of the band.
Whatever. I'll find someone or I'll go off at 9pm all by myself. In the dark. Scariness will ensue as I leave at 11pm..in the dark..all by myself.
Stupid paranoia.

5:32 pm - "Ladies and Gentleman I am Completely Dialated Right Now"
|
*Happy face*
Aww..I just saw the last show of this run of Hedwig at the Stoner Theater "where the only people stoned here are the band". Justin once again put on an AMAZING show. Mom and I got there at 2pm an hour before start, and got seats at a table again-this time right dead center. Bliss.
He hit every note, every word and put so much emotion into it that I cried repeatedly. Imagine me, mouthing the words to Midnight Radio with silent tears streaming down my face. I broke down the minute he did his little monologue with Tommy about loving "the front of me"... Justin was so good at portraying Tommy and then switching back to his character. As Hedwig his face just crumpled and I just started bawling.
Oh and the highlight of my evening: after Wicked Little Town, I received Hedwig's shroud. He showed it to the audience then walked right up and placed it in my hands. "You can have this...you might have to wring it out though".
Its going in a shadow box along with my picture with him and the ticket.
Afterward we went up and gave him a hug and congratulated him on such a great show; he thanked us for coming back. Turns out they're doing a February showing too so I'll definitely be there and I'll bring my brother and perhaps my dad this time. Plus whoever else seems eager to go.
You know, its difficult to explain Hedwig's message and what the show does to those of us Hedheads. Its spiritual and moving and leaves you all tingly and warm; but yet its tragic and sad and somehow manages to leave you with a shinning glimmer of hope.
Oh Hedwig..you're so fucking beautiful.

Work sucks.
Ok..So I liked my job when it started out but now its really starting to put a damper on my social-life. I've gone how many weeks without going out? Several. And I can't even remember the last time I got drunk.
God this sucks.
And my roommate-who was supposed to go home tonight-is out SOMEWHERE doing SOMETHING and I can't get ahold of her or the party she's with. Grrr...and she told me that if she stayed tonight it would be so she could find out what's going on and keep in touch with me so I could go out with them. Yeah..like that's happening.
And I just got a hug from Amanda who's intoxicated..and even the girl that I dont like had a good night.
*grumbles and complains some more*
Alright..enough bitching. I'll go to bed now since its the only thing I CAN do.
current mood: bitchy

10:42 pm - I need to balance my checkbook

Gah! That last trip to HotTopic has knocked me down another 20-some dollars. And here I thought my mom was going to buy the stuff for me. *scoffs*
And even though HotTopic's lack of new buttons has disappointed me, I did manage to snag a few to add to my collection. I suppose I should now make a new inventory list.
To spare you all, I will make another entry solely for that. You can pass on it if you must.
It has also come to my attention that I have two new people who have added me as a friend. *feels ultra special* ::waves:: Nice to see you!! Perhaps I will add you too..all in good time. You know, mustnt rush these things. Heh.
