LOL. Hacked.

Annie was here! :D

NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP

Never gonna let you down / Never gonna run around and desert youuuuu (Rick Astley)

Customers 1, 2 & 3 make their demands from Ms. Bunny G-spot

If you're going "What did I just read?" and questioning your eyesight, worry not, you read that correctly. Sadly.

The dorms were having this sort of... Christmas-grams, or something. I can't remember what it was called. But you could send things to people if you paid (very much like Valentine's Day things in high school). Customers 1, 2 & 3 (otherwise known as Annie, Claire, and Megan - alphabetized), decided to show their, uh, love for me with this wonderful gift. Ha ha ha. The girl who knocked on the door to deliver them seemed both amused at and judging of me, holding their order paper... -shudder-

"Christmas stocking"

They wanted me to make a blog post, and I guess this is one of those crazier moments of college life, one of those moments where I go cry in the corner out of horror, haha, so it's an important learning situation to document. =____= I don't even know what to do about this. Crazy crazy crazy. But I love my customers (lol). They keep me up late at night... talking, of course. What was running through your brain?

Meanwhile, one more exam to go! Claire left this night to go on her wonderful winter break adventures D; It will be a very quiet and lonely rest of the weekend. -sigh- Oh well. Home soon!!!

OH CHEMISTRY, MY LOVE, trust me, I'm NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP.
Customers, this ain't love. It's just a business transaction. :P

(okay yes perhaps they are bad influences on me haha don't worry I haven't really changed)

Days Swiftly Come and Go (AAR)

So, next year's semester is set above. All so nicely lined up with a lunch break in the middle, eh? Everything but Symphony Orchestra, down in it's usual, terrible timeslot is shown in the screenshot above. It's going to be so wonderful having Physics every day of my life. I'm looking a this and thinking that I'll probably do my lab reports for both Chem on Physics on Tuesdays... But then again, I should probably break the bad habits and get them done right after or on Friday afternoon, at least. I realized this means I end the week at the same time as I did this semester, except now I'm ending with Spanish instead of torturous Math.

This is 16 credit's worth; maybe I should have tried to take an actual Honors course (not just "A" sections), so I don't have to worry about taking two of the required ones next year to qualify for Sophomore Honors Status. Eh. I hope it'll start going better. And since I do seem to have free time... I guess it's time for me to get engaged. Or rather, more engaged, for the requirement. Get a job? Volunteer on a regular basis? Join an RIO and take classes from the campus Recreational Services? I've got to hold myself to that with the coming new semester. Reach out, grow my limbs, don't let my days slip by in the confines of this room staring at this computer watching anime that gets me nowhere.

Last night I realized how important people are to my well-being (lol). I mean this in the sense, that when I'm alone, I usually tumble into thinking that leads to ridiculously long rants and hours of analyzing people rather than equations and reactions. It was nice talking to Annie and Megan and just learning about them and their pasts, and laughing and ranting on the way people are in general. Though, those were frightening moments when they busted out those pink and yellow poi balls from the swap meet and first started swinging them round and round. It was, though, quite entertaining. Annie kind of beat herself up with the things, though.

The floor pizza party was also last night, from 100% survey completion. Less than half the floor showed up, but it was okay, and 12th floor residents trickled in, along with conversation about classes and grades and still school. So much for relaxation. At least we had food (food being pizza hut pizza, malasadas, and various sodas). Though, I've got to drain my points before the end of the semester and use the meals that I have left for this week. Yay for spending money for the sake of spending it! It all goes to food, though. I will refrain from purchasing junk food.

Goals were set for today last night on the balcony. We will be held accountable this evening by the others when we talk about our days again.

1) I absolutely need to finish my Anthropology FINAL DRAFT for this archaeology paper. After that I'm free from this semester of ANTH foreverrrrrrrr! It was a lot of history. Very rational thinking was involved (drawing knowledge from material culture), and the class was full of nice people. Silly, but very nice. I wouldn't mind being in classes with them again. (:

2) Math studying like crazy. Memorize and finish all the homework problems. And ask for help. Seriously.

That is all. I must set myself to this now, stop typing this nonsense, and turn my mind to the Qin Dynasty and the Inca Empire. Yay for time-travel to the past!

P.S. I cut my fingernails after 3 days of irritation at their length. Yes!!!

Why Must I Spend My Time

Fillin' up my mind / With facts and figures that never add up anyway / They never add up anyway (Fountains of Wayne)

Now, I'm not really complaining about all the studying that college really is, because if I really found this all a waste of my time, I wouldn't be here in college, right? It's been fun. Studying is a pain at times, but hey, even if the numbers don't add up, I'll do what I need to do with them anyway.

Saturday night I opened the door and these "Flunk Napping" Red Bull energy shot things were hanging on everyone's door round the hall. Soooooo strange. I'm not going to drink it. (: Claire can have it. I will avoid energy drinks as best as I can. I mean, I already have coffee, and that makes me jittery enough already. No use drinking something that allegedly doesn't taste so good. I don't need that stuff in my body, nonono.

As you can see, both of my purple turkeys have taken some damage. It's Annie's fault the princess is nearly completely decapitated. Look at her princess hat flying above a missing head. My chem turkey is getting crumbled, and it's missing finger feather is held up by the star magnet from the Waikiki Aquarium bought back on our 9/11 adventure earlier in the semester on the side of our fridge with my "DON'T PANIC" sign. I think it might be a good idea to take them off the door before they face any more damages.

Last night we had a little study get together (after spending money at The Market - need to use up those points before the end of the semester!) which, of course, included at least one round of Blokus to loosen up our brains (well, it's such a battle of the mind still, anyway). I ran through my notecards for Hawaiian studies quite a few times, flipping through powerpoint slides and skimming docs. Worked those dates and facts into my brain! And then, this morning, after a brief terrible bathroom incident that displayed being "out of it", and a breakfast with Annie and Megan involving strange but tasty lemon bar things, I regurgitated those facts into specific blanks on two sheets of paper. I got my tentative grade for the class so far and turned in my extra credit on the movie Hotel Rwanda, gave Kat and Andrew some kettle corn, and was satisfied, coming back here to the dorm room.

I've got my final anthropology paper to edit for Wednesday to do. I should probably do that by the end of tonight, though, seeing as how the books from the state library are due tomorrow. I guess that means library adventure tomorrow! Yay!... Well, not completely yay. But okay. Maybe I can get some studying done there, too. I'd like to practice for the Christmas orchestra I have somehow become a part of... but I'm not too keen on looking at the runs of notes from M. Foumai. Luckily I got myself into the second violins, where I can be proud and confident and not have to worry about practicing as much as I would have to if I were in the firsts. Punahou kids eat a lot of Skittles.

Anyway, back to reading and writing. Numbers and elements, I'm coming for you soon!
