Back To Rochester

On My Mind

Thu, 21 Mar 2002 12:41:24 GMT

spring and lake effect snow
tired, went to bed late (for me) and got up early
field trip to a furniture dealer today, we get to learn why exactly they use cubicles and how to put them together, ooh fun; it will be hard to keep my mouth shut, I have to remember to do so, I have this extreme hatred for all things cubicle, but hopefully I can figure out a way to redeem this potentially good-for-the-office furniture
I wonder if I'll have to pay for parking?
I hope I'm not late for psychology, though I'm no longer taking notes for it, cause whoever the chick was dropped the class....

on the plus side I only got one wrong on my math quiz last night woohoo!
I got a lot of space planning completed for office design before I crashed
I'm pretty sure I'm all caught up now in all my classes, it's amazing how I can get behind in the first four days.....

off to school....brrrrr.....

Sleep...

ok so i'm an idiot.
i have a Saturday class 9-12 1-4 and i completely forgot about it.... not even an nagging little doubt that i might have a class today or anything else to do today....
and this is going to happen every Saturday, i just know it... so bye bye advanced autcad... probably the only thing that could have gotten me a decent paying job this summer.... though i don't really want to be a CAD whore but it pays..... sometimes i really hate myself

Woohoo.hoo

Mon, 11 Mar 2002 13:49:14 GMT

woohoo classes start again.
building construction systems 2-4 and college algebra and trig 6-8 (and I can't find my scientific calculator anywhere)
but yet another visit to the vet at 9:30 this morning... hopefully the last for a while, she seems to be doing much much better...knock on wood

WOOHOO!!

I finally got my grades for my two incompletes Fall quarter. Two A's
Which if I get an A on my incomplete from Winter quarter, I will have a 3.4
yippee skippee

off to do laundry and design a few things for Joe to start building :)

Emergency Visit to the Vet

Fri, 08 Mar 2002 22:57:46 GMT

Well, Murdok laid a total of 28 eggs today, and the doctor says there is definitely one more. Another steroid shot, and continuation of antibiotics should help. Too bad I didn't breed her huh? $100 a bearded dragon baby and I could have had about 3 grand.
but Murdok is doing fine now and there is yet one more appointment on Monday morning at 9:30 am.....

as for me, I went shopping this afternoon and had a blast, cute little denim dress, few shirts, new pair of jeans.... and of course a bag. for some it's shoes, I just buy all sorts of different kinds of bags... :)

thinking of buying/adopting a ferret, or maybe a chinchilla, ferrets are more fun but chinchilla's are cooool

Fri, 08 Mar 2002 15:22:48 GMT

hm, let's see... today the weather is gonna actually be nice, which is good but I have to work 12-3... which is not so good, but only three hours so not so bad

I think I might drop in at Sears and see if I can find myself a nice little sewing machine... domesticating nicely, see? but I figure this way I can make a bunch of summer clothes, or try, and maybe make tuff for people so I don't have to think up what to buy them... I'm so bad a gifts.....

can you tell I'm bored with break? but it's almost over, mike will be back tomorrow , yay!
classes start Monday... not sure if I'm excited or not.... taking a math class, first in five years, it's only algebra but it should be interesting... I'll probably have to drop it, if looking through the text is any indication of how far my brain ha atrophied from my stunning brilliance in high school.....

blah blah blah

Thu, 07 Mar 2002 16:34:46 GMT

So which letter of the alphabet matches YOUR personality, huh?

Thu, 07 Mar 2002 16:29:18 GMT

so the art student takes a math class....
should be interesting....

Wed, 06 Mar 2002 16:08:57 GMT

things on my mind:

how long will it take me to give the lizard medicine today? it took about a half hour yesterday
can I get myself motivated to go to work?
can I get myself motivated to finish cleaning my room and the basement?
is it really cheaper to order textbooks on the internet?
when do I get to talk to mikey today?

Well, Murdok went to the vet today and was a good little lizard. She only hissed once when she got a shot in her front leg, and she was even good when they had to clean out her bottom parts.. yeah, eew gross. But apparently when she was laying eggs she pushed to hard and some of her insides came outside but she will be better soon, with a little bit of medicine for the next week and I bought her some nice little crickets too.....
And bonus, apparently she has "beautiful bones" which is damn good since domestic lizards have this problem with calcium production and their bones get super weak...

So, a follow up visit in one week and she should be as good as new :)

My instructor's a wus

Fri, 01 Mar 2002 20:46:56 GMT

I don't know what it is that I do wrong, but it seems to be happening often

rant

Fri, 01 Mar 2002 01:30:35 GMT

yeah so I've pretty much decided that not many people really know me and most just judge for what they thought I was or think I am.... and it's interesting cause those people don't' seem to realize that they met me and knew me best during the worst possible time of my life... interesting how people can't look past the trouble, or don't care to, how they forget that you listened to them bitch and moan and complain and asked you for advice... and those that think they are perfect are only deluding themselves.. no one is perfect no matter how hard they try to be and to think that others are or should be is unfair to everyone involved

just get over it, I have, finally

Tue, 26 Feb 2002 22:02:05 GMT

joe bought wood
this should be an interesting break

Never anything good to say about me

You are tending to pursue your objectives with concentrated intensity and it would seem that whatever obstacles may come into your path - you will stick to your guns and will not allow yourself to be deflected from your purpose. You are striving to achieve recognition and what is more - you deserve it

You are feeling very disillusioned at this time and you feel that you are being left out of things. You know - or you think you know what you want but you seem unable to exert the effort to achieve your objectives. As a consequence, you are feeling left out and neglected. You would like to be afforded greater security, and fewer problems.

Matters are not progressing as well as you would have hoped and you are having to make concessions but you still believe that your goals are realistic - it's just that people can't seem to see your point of view. You know what you want but you'll only accept suggestions under duress.

All of your stress arises from lack of mutual understanding. The existing situation is unsatisfactory and you feel that you are unable to improve it without the help and co-operation of others. The need for understanding and for affectionate "give and take" remains unsatisfied. You are experiencing the feeling of being "handcuffed" ... "tied down" ... "hindered" ..."restrained" and this untenable situation is giving rise to impatience, irritability and the desire to escape from it all..

You really would like to be completely uninhibited... to let your hair down.. but you are held back by your sense of logic and rational, since you realise that by simple stupidity you could lose everything... whatever that may be..

TODAY SUCKS!

Crunch Time

Thu, 21 Feb 2002 12:22:49 GMT

Today I have class 9-12, 2-5, 6-9, and it's gonna be a hell of a day, cause the only thing that I am doing will be building my model. So it's gonna be a wonderful day tuck on the fourth floor.

I am so looking forward to next quarter, however once it begins I'll probably be hoping for the end, but this quarter needs to be done, SOON!

Thu, 21 Feb 2002 06:44:19 GMT

And once again it hits pretty close.
I'm going to become addicted to this thing I know it. Oh well too late
