Hum…

Well, nothing has been going on lately. Played hockey last night for a couple hours. We had 7 people so we played 3 on 3 with one sub. It was nice having that sub.

Wednesday I had a paper due in my Into to Gov class that I thought was due next Wed. but I was wrong. So, I wrote it last night, it was only a 2 page paper. Started it around midnight finished about 1:30. Turned it in today and being late isn’t a big deal. the paper itself is only worth 15 pts and I lose 3 for being late. Considering tests are worth 100 pts, losing 3 is not gonna kill me.

Marlins pulled through the last two nights and have taken a 3 games to 2 lead in the world Series. Only one more win and it’s over.

That’s about all I have to say, later.

Job Interview…

Today I had an interview at Best Buy. It went pretty good and they may be calling me for a second interview sometime next week. And that one would be with the department head. We’ll see if that actually happens. Also, she said that it would probably be just for Christmas help, but if I make a good impression it could be more.

Yesterday I had a test in Stats and my teacher made it open book, which was nice. I also found a couple days ago that just about everyone from my Clac classes are gonna be in Diff EQ which is gonna kick ass.

Some sucky news now, local band Unchained have broke up.

Compaq has finally answer this age old question. Click here for the answer.

Another Monday…

Today I had to get up an hour and a half earlier than usual to take Jeff all the way out to McK. Then, I had class. In my Lit class someone got kicked out, so that was funny. They had fallen asleep, which he hates. He made a remark how they don’t even know when he is taking about them, that was funny. So he had the guy next to her wake her up, cause no one knew her name and he told her to leave and go to bed, lol. After that class got out I had to run all the way out to McK again. I got there about 20 minutes early so I spent about 15 minutes just driving around waiting for Jeff to show up. I took him home, hung out for an hour or so, then I came home. Spent the night doing homework and watching tv, my usual night.

Later.

This week…

Well this week was the usual. Absolutely nothing is going on.

Tuesday I had a quiz in Earth Science, got a 10/10, go me. I also went out and bought the new A Perfect Circle CD, Thirteenth Step, it is damn good.

Wednesday I had a test in my Intro to Gov. class, I didn’t do as good as I thought or wanted, an 83. Not terrible but ain’t great. Then in my Intro to Lit class I started to doze off for some reason. I don’t know what hit me, but I got really tired all of a sudden. My teacher was not happy and told me to keep um open or leave, so I was awake for the rest of class.

Thursday nothing happened.

Friday nothing happened in class. During Woody and Whipping Boy on the Point they played a ton of their acoustic stuff that was recorded there. So that was cool. I also recorded it ghetto style. Microphone connected to comp recording off my stereo. It actually doesn’t sound too bad. Now I am the process of splitting up each individual track and this will take awhile. I will post all of the tracks I have once I am done. Also, the Blues started their preseason games today and won 3-0.

Saturday I woke up for the Cards game. It was actually a pretty good game. Pujols won the game in the Bottom of the 13th with a homer run to break the 2-2 tie. Blues won again 3-2 in OT over Dallas, hahaha. Tonight I did nothing except cut the grass. How’s that for a thrilling Saturday night. Now, I’m just working on edited the songs and have been working for a few hours already.

I guess that’s about it, Later.

School stuff…

Today I filed for graduation at the end of the Spring 2004 semester, I don’t know why you have to do it this early, but today was the deadline. I found out what classes I still need to take and those are: Biology, Speech, and a Health or 2 PE.

This all leads up to the tough question, what the fuck am I gonna do after this? I have no idea what I want to do. All I’ve been doing is taking a bunch of math classes, but I don’t know what I want to do with it. About the only 2 options with math are Engineering or become a teacher.

If I decided to go with Engineering I would probably wind up at SIUE, the main problem with that is that I didn’t take the Engineering Physics classes, which are required. The teacher who does the Physics is terrible and I didn’t want to waste my time. I would have to take those classes before I could even apply to the Engineering School at SIUE. So, doing this would put me even further behind in ever finishing up with school. Plus, I have no idea what field I would even go into.

I really don’t think the teaching thing would be right for me. That is just way too much school for me, esp. if I tried for postsecondary.

I’ve been trying to figure this out for years and I’m not any closer to a decision.

P.S. I’m mad about my fist Stats test, I got a 96, and I know I could have got a perfect 103 ( +3 bonus, which I got). If I would have actually studied I could have done better, but oh well. To tell you how easy the test was, our class average was a 90.

Random Happenings…

I couldn’t think of a clever title so that’s what you’re stuck with. Anyway not a lot has been going on, go figure.

Last Friday I wanted to hurt my Lit. teacher because we have to come in some Saturday in November to watch Apocolypse Now Redux, because he doesn’t want to take 4 class periods to watch it. The only good part of this is when we have to do our novel presentation we will only have to show up the day we are giving our presentation.

Tuesday in my stats class a guy sitting a couple rows behind me had a seizure. I was just sitting there and the next thing I felt something hit my seat and I turn around and he was shaking. He almost fell out of his chair, but the the guys sitting on the side of him kept him in the chair. After about 10 seconds he stopped and had no idea what happened so campus patrol came by and took him and went to the hospital. That was the first time I have ever seen someone go into a seizure.

After classes got out Jeff and I went to the Blue Note Store to buy tickets for the Mudvayne/Powerman 5000/Fingertight concert over at Pop’s. Then, I wanted to run to Circuit City to pick up the Alias Season 1 DVD, but they were sold out so I had to run to Best Buy and pay about $7 more for it.

Well that’s about all that has been going on, Catch ya later.
