I got three grades back for my classes, and they’re all A’s! ^_^ I looks like I’ll get Dean’s List again and finally get my GPA above a 3.0. WOOHOO!

Yeesh. Today Jamie and I spent the entire morning (well, I guess it was only an hour) shoveling the driveway. There was so much packed snow and ice, I hurt myself. ;_; My car also made a funny smell when we let it warm up, I guess because I haven’t driven it in a while.
After the long, arduous task of shoveling we went to Max and Erma’s. We got all full, and when we got back Jamie and I crashed in my room for an hour. (AWWW…)

When we got up, the driveway was all covered again! GRRR!!! By a whole inch, too. So when Jamie was about to leave, I went out to shovel it again, and he helped me out. Meesa loves mah Jamie. Of course, it’s covered by another inch now, so I’m all pissed. I’m also trying to avoid studying for my finals. Woo.

Okay, here’s what’s been happening lately: My mom is going on a trip next week to Canada for THE WHOLE WEEK. That’s kind of a mixed blessing in that she’ll be gone, so I’ll have to put up with Chris’s shit all week, but Jamie gets to sleep over more than normal. ^_^ So she decided that her laptop was too much of a burden to take with her, and told me that she was going to buy me one of my own (she made it sound more like she was taking her laptop with her, though). Regardless, I’m getting an HP pavillion that rivals Lee’s computer. Yeah, it kicks that much ass. I’ll post the specs in the extended post part.
Also now that I’ve taken on the 22 credits, I’m starting to feel the strain. Though, it’s not too bad. …yet. I have three oral presentations to give at the end of the semester, but I figure that it can’t be that much worse than last semesterm and I managed to pull through that one. Work is the biggest thing. See, they finally decided it was high time to give me actual things to do, which I agree with, but now I have no time for my homework. Ah well, such is the life of a starving college student, ne?

Okay, yeah, I know, I should be doing my homework, yeah? Well, screw you, I don’t wanna. 😛 Actually, I’m only delaying because Jamie doesn’t get out of class until 7:15 anyway, so I have some free time. I have to write a letter for our English class having something to do with requesting a change with our credit history. Yay… *rolls eyes*

Oh, today I found out that you can take both the pre-internship class and the internship class itself consecutively, so I signed up for the whopping 6-credit class. Of course, that put me up to 22 credits (yowch!), and it was a late-add, so I have to pay fees for both the late-add AND each credit over 19 credits. Not quite sure how much it’s going to add up to, but I’m positive it’ll be no less than $500. At least I won’t get billed for the classes until next semester, so I’ll have time to build up some cash for it if my mom decides to be a pain and make me pay the extra.

Hopefully when I get home tonight the DVDs I ordered from Netflix will be there. I SO wanna watch some episodes of Lost tonight.

Harumph! School and work are getting to be so boring now. Between constant homework and NOTHING to do at work, I’m going to lose it, I swear. At least I get my first paycheck next week! *Squee*

Well, it’s sad, but ever since around 8, when I decided to take a night off from the Sims, I’ve been feeling a little bored/depressed. I would just give in and play it, but this is a matter of principle! Ah well…

Oh, Jamie FINALLY got me his pictures from France. I’d post a direct link, but they’ll be down by tomorrow. So, I decided to take the liberty of editing one myself in order to show off his first trip to the beach! Bwahahahaha….

Well, nothing can top the excitement from yesterday (I still can’t believe it even happened), but my day was far below even a third of what it was. I mean, I sat home all day, as usual, and played The Sims 2. The height of my day was when I got two twins to make out, just because of its oddity. o.O
I’m thinking maybe I’ll have the boy and girl (the twins) be in love and woohoo for a while, then he’ll bring back a friend from school, and she’ll realize how confused she is and change to a lesbian. That would be entertaining… (Hoo BOY is she UGLY, by the way. Her mom, dad, and brother are all reasonably attractive, while she looks like a Disney villain. It’s quite sad.)

Wowwie-kazzowie! (Talk about an outdated phrase, huh?) Nearly six months after I did my interview with US Steel, they called me back saying they had some openings for interns! *squeals* It’s in the programming department, so I’ll have to learn some new stuff, but who cares?! I gots a job and now I won’t have to hunt for an internship in the spring.

^_^ < --grinning so hard my cheeks hurt Continue reading “Happy Dance” →

*groan* I just woke up from a little nap I was having on the couch downstairs since 9… Sleepy. I would be watching Battlestar Galactica to get caught up so I can watch the new episode tomorrow, but of course because of my luck, episode got corrupted or something when Jamie copied it onto my USB hard drive. So, huzzah, I have to download it, and it won’t be done until 1:30 this morning at the earliest. I don’t like racing the clock, but I don’t want to make Jamie not see it on TV. So, I hope I can stay up for it to be done and to watch it and one or two more episodes tonight…

Well, I went to the doctor this morning at 8:00, as I knew I would, (TOO DAMN EARLY!) and somehow I got it into my head while 2/3 of the way through Harry Potter last night that I just had to finish it before going to sleep; like I was going to die if I had to put it down. I finished it, but not before 3 am, giving me a lovely 4.5 hours of sleep.

The whole reason I went to the doctor was to get my learner’s permit back, which I will do now after I re-take the written exam (grumble, grumble). I promised Jamie I would try to be further along to having my license by the end of the summer, and I’m going to do my damndest to get it, I assure you.
Knowing the end to Harry Potter is killing me, as I’m sure half of my friends haven’t even gotten the book yet, and I don’t want to be a jackass like some people on Newgrounds who just HAD to let the ending slip within hours of the book coming out. Asshats. They’re lucky I didn’t believe them, because if I had, I would have given them quite a verbal beating.
Ah well, I still say I know what’s going to happen in the last book, so I want to see if I’m right or no.
