THURSDAY’S SCHEDULE
7:00am-8:30am registering for next semester

yesterday i misjudged where a wall was a accidentally ran into it.

today i got asked five billion times why my face looks like this:

( megan recommended i tell people i got in a barfight, because saying, “oh, i ran into a wall,” sounds really lame. and it is. )

guess where i went on friday!? brighton rec! it was great to see everyone again (although my favorite sibling duo were not there, sadly). and i showed becky the super secret handbook (it’s just a summer camp manual full of games, crafts, songs, coloring pages, puzzles, and other activity ideas), and she loved it! she said she wants to makes copies for everyone. that’s awesome. i knew working on that thing for so long (months, believe it or not) would pay off.

so… i have three midterms tomorrow. but i’ve luckily bypassed the freakout stage and have moved right on to the veryveryvery busy stage where i lock myself in the room and leave my computer turned off for 8+ hours. but i was itching to turn it on, so here we are. well, i should get back to work. see you tomorrow night, maybe.

schedule for tomorrow:
6:30 am - wake up and study
8:30 am - calculus II midterm
9:30 am - chemisty midterm
11:30 am - pysch. midterm
12:30 pm - math
3:00 pm - chem lab

lyndsey from work wrote this on my wall yesterday after i asked her how february break camp was going: “summer and roman today were like why isn’t lanni here? lanni should be here, she’s fun!” aw. i miss brighton rec!

i got all my exam scores back (at least the ones i took):

CHEM 103: 85
CALC II: 80
PSYCH 215: 86

so yeah, that 80 is the lowest math exam score i’ve gotten in a few years. ugh, i’m not going to do well this semester, in any classes it seems. damn.

oh, and the cullen family has been cast for the twilight movie. what do you twilight fans think? personally, emmett isn’t as bulky as i had imagined, and jasper is bit shorter than i’d thought. otherwise i think they look great!

at 4:38pm today i locked my door, grabbed a dr pepper, and opened my chem notebook.

i didn’t unlock the door until 10:26pm.

that’s 5 hours and 38 minutes of studying, not counting the 15 minute break i took at 7:45pm to read a chapter from the subtle knife and to eat a granola bar because my hand hurt and i was hungry.

i better friggin’ pass this chem test. gah.

(and i’m sorry to all the people that knocked on my door that i ignored, and for not answering my phone.)

so… about an hour ago i was hit by a car in a wegmans parking lot. true story.

i was leaving the store with my dr pepper in hand, and walking to my car. suddenly a car started backing out of a handicap parking space, and it bumped right into me. i was obviously not injured, but it did shove me a few feet, and it made me drop my dr pepper. the old man driving the car rolled down his window and said he was sorry and asked if i was okay. i said yes and continued walking to my car.

but seriously, who throws it into reverse without looking behind them? i saw he had his brakes on when i was walking past, but it wasn’t in reverse yet. one little look behind him would have shown him that someone was friggin’ there. wtf.

well, today has been… well, FUCKING AWFUL.

6:45am- my alarm goes off. it’s class registration day, you see. my time was 7:15am, so i thought i’d get up early enough to check and see if all the classes i wanted to take were still open. some of them weren’t, so i was a little ticked off, but i was okay with it, because that’s normal.

7:00am- i start to get my registration materials together: my login PIN, class numbers, professor names, et cetera. but i soon realized that i misplaced the paper i had written my registration PIN on. so i frantically turned my side of the room upside down looking for it while megan registered for her classes.

7:10am- i called both the records office and the school of education, and discovered that both do not open until 8am.

7:15am- megan got back in bed and went to sleep, and i painfully watched as every single class on my list filled up and eventually closed.

7:30am- out of ideas, i unplugged my laptop, threw on some jeans and a hoodie, and booked it to the school of education (i didn’t even bother making my bed or grabbing a dr pepper, oh my!). i had hoped that maybe the secretary would get there a little early. i sat in an armchair in the office, set up my computer on my lap, and waited.

8:55am- the secretary arrived. within minutes i had my PIN.

9:00am- i didn’t even bother to walk back to my room, i set up my laptop at the first “wireless zone” sign i came across in the hallway. CHEM 103 was open, so i grabbed a seat. MATH 140 was also open, and it was even the section i wanted originally, so i grabbed that. INTD 203 had one section open, the one with the terrible professor, but i had to take it. MATH 222 was closed. and PSYC 203 was closed.

9:20am- back at my dorm room, megan was long gone, so i had plenty of time to be depressed about my life before my physics lab at 10. (also, if any of you were lucky enough to read that locked livejournal post from a few weeks ago, i may have defaulted on what i said. fuck.)

10:00am- physics lab.

12:15pm- when i got back to my room, i checked the closed classes to see if any seats had opened up, and to my surprise, there was a seat in MATH 222! so that brought my class total up to four, only 14 credits.

i’m having a bad day. an epically bad day.

1. i’m still sick.
2. i forgot to eat breakfast, even though i got up early by accident and had time to kill.
3. since i didn’t eat breakfast, i forgot to brush my teefs.
4. when it came time to go to anthropology, i grabbed my bag and left, forgetting to actually put my notebooks and folders in for anthro and calc.
5. they served tator tots instead of french fries at lunch. i hate tator tots.
6. i still didn’t get any mail. it’s lonely here.
7. megan and i got to the union early to play guitar hero 3, so we waited at a table. when the desk opened to sign it out, some guy managed to get in line before us and signed it out first.
8. marie attacked me when i was reading a sign, and alexa didn’t warn me in time.
9. after laying on the ground of my dorm room because i felt so crappy, i got up to go to the drinking fountain and alexa attacked me the second i opened up the door. bad timing.
10. i managed to get stabbed in the face somehow between the union and right now, and i have a scratch on my cheek.

this list is to be continued. i’m 99.9% sure that my day isn’t going to get any better. it hasn’t gotten better, but it also hasn’t gotten worse (although i have to study for my big calc test right now, and i keep get distracted).

i was very tempted to cheer myself up by purchasing this awesome rubik’s cube t-shirt, but i don’t think going through my perpetually diminishing savings is going to really help much.

1. i got a 94 on my physics test! this is very very good, since i seriously got the lowest possible passing grade on my last test (69.5). my teacher drops the lowest score, so i’m trying super hard to do well on the remaining tests.

2. i’m sick, again. college has like stabbed my immune system or something, seriously. i’ve been at geneseo for two months, and i’ve been sick twice. UGH.

3. i finally met with my advisor and worked out what classes i’m taking next semester: MATH 222 (calc II), CHEM 103, PSYC 215 (for my major), INTD 203 (for my major), and MATH 140 (for my major). this should be fun. i’ve worked out my schedule would be, and my earliest class will be calc at 8:30! that’s an hour earlier than i have to get up now, ugh. but i’m done by 11:20 on TR, 1:20 on WF, and 5:30 on M (due to my chem lab). i guess it won’t be too bad. although i am taking two more credits than last semester…

dammit, i broke my mouse. i knew i shouldn’t have put it in the laptop bag, but i thought that would be the only place i wouldn’t forget it. well, i didn’t forget it, but i think it got crushed/squished or something, because now it makes clicking noises when i scroll or when i touch it. so when i click, it feels like i’m clicking more than once, and it’s seriously driving me insane to the point where i had to put it in my drawer and i’m using the trackpad.

since it was my fault, i’m assuming this voids any warrenty i had on it and i can’t get another one. i might order a wired one (only because it’s cheaper), or i might just ask my mom to bring me my pro-mouse off my imac. i’ve just gotten so used to that scroll wheel, when i use my pro-mouse i find myself trying to use it when it’s not there.

blah.
