well . . . hmm . . . want to say about today? I really dunno, although, I was talking to my roommate earlier and eventually wound up telling her to pay me no mind because "I am speaking in random." *lol* So, from now on, I guess that's what I'll say when there's no specific topic I wanna talk about.

So, I am speaking in random . . .

Called my mom today. She's feeling a lil' better. She had to spend most of the day a the hospital gettin some kinda procedure to break up that kidney stone, and of course she couldn't eat or drink anything after midnight last night, so she was starvin, the poor thing. But at least she's feelin better . . . she's gotta go back to get x-rays tomorrow, I think, to make sure it worked, I hope it did . . .

Went to the photography lab today to work some on my final project. How come I was the only one that knew the combo to the lock to get in the cabinet to get the key to unlock the lab and chemistry? I mean he (the professor) told us all the combination at least two or three times. I guess I'm the only one with the photographic, or would that be photo-audio, memory . . . but anyways, I love photography, at least I'm not the only one who knows how to set the lab up anymore . . . that's always a plus, and now, I'm no longer the only one who knows how to take it all down and clean up either. Heather helped me do that today; we're the only ones signed up to go in tomorrow, around 5 pm, which means it'll be dark, waaay past dark, when we clean up and leave. But I think I'm gonna drive us across campus so we don't have to walk back in the dark . . .

omg! I finally tweased my eyebrows today . . . SSOOOOO much better . . . I was startin to get a unibrow *ewww!!* . . . *lol* . . . and for some reason, it made me feel better today . . . Now I just need to go get my nails filled in, the acrylic kind, and filed down to half the length . . . they're not that long, but I swear I can't get my contacts out with stabbing my eyeball first! . . . no fun . . . I think I'll shave my legs tomorrow . . .

I've been wanting to dye my hair red for awhile now, but I'm scared to do it myself and I don't have the money to go get it done, so I have to ask my mom to do it with the store bought kit. She's done it before and it always comes out great, but she complains that she likes my hair the way it is whenever I bring it up. Sorry, mom, but the highlights, although totally natural and nice, are startin to grow out and the roots are dark . . . I need a change . . . I want RED! . . . Maybe I can talk her into over winter break, hopefully before the Christmas Cantata at church on the 19th . . . we'll see . . . and yeah, no lie, totally natural highlights, spent the entire summer, just about, outside watchin my sister play on her three different softball teams--JV high school (not bad for an eigth grader, but she's been in Parks & Rec. since she was, I think, 8), Dixie League (totally screwed them over), and Parks and Rec.(her last year ) . . . I had a kick-ass tan, too! . . . Sadly, the highlights are growin out and the tan left a long time ago . . . and, yes, btw, I did use sunscreen! But it depended on my mood as to the spf . . .used a 4, 8, 15, and 45 . . . not at the same time, but whatever we remembered to bring with us . . . I want my tan back! . . .

This semester is almost over! *yay* I got my final grade for Canada and Quebec class . . . B . . . not too bad considering I never turned in three papers . . . told mom this, she got annoyed . . . "I guess next time you'll be double-checking due dates for your papers?!" *blah blah blah* I love her, but I know when I screw up, and I don't need to be reminded . . . it was a simple misunderstanding . . . I thought the papers were due this week--as I had written in my notes--but they were due last week, and the prof. could no longer accept them. My mistake (I hate that "my bad" what kind of crap is that?! . . . anyway), I learned from it, but *sheesh* it wasn't that major or anything . . . oh well . . .

Only have three things left for this semester, well four, but only three apply to classes here at school . . . Bowen's International Relations exam, probably tomorrow afternoon or Thurs. morning . . . Ms. Marion's Intro. to Art Education Final exam/project, we have to take two different pieces of art work and, in book format, recreate this pieces in part or in whole (and giving credit is a MUST, no worries) in the different styles we learned in class--line drawing, dot drawing, watercolor, tempra pointalism, silloutte, etc.--but we only have to do four for each piece and it doesn't have to be the same four for each one, we get bonus points if we do more than four . . . my Photography I final project, I need to make a few more prints and then put together my portfolio and meet with Jim (we can't promounce or spell the last name, it's long) and talk about it, what we learned, etc., and get a grade and then bring it home just in time to pass out prints in frames as Christmas presents, well, maybe, *lol* depends on if they're good enough . . . I might scan and post some of my photos, we'll see . . . I mean I did take the photo, develop the film, and make the prints, so they are 100% mine . . . until I give them away . . .

Oh the fourth thing! I need to type up my spring schedule and send it to all the people I babysit for, and for those who I haven't but am on their "babysitters list." That's a project in itself, getting it to where people can understand it . . . I mean I like it in a table format where the classes are listed on the left side, the y-axis (up and down), and the days of the week at the top, the x-axis (left to right), and then put an X in the box/cell if I do NOT have that class that day. If I DO have the class (say on mon. wed. and fri.), Monday will have the time, 11-11:50am, Wednesday will have the building, DEM for Deming, and Friday will have the room number, 105. But this set up seemed to confuse these poor ladies for fall semester, so I think I'll do this anyway, but just for myself, and then just write/type it all out for them . . . I'll make it easy for them . . . ain't I nice?

solidification and I have been talking about math <3Math 4ever! *hehe* I LOVE math, I really do, I miss not having a math class, maybe next fall I'll take one for the fun of it . . . we'll see . . .

my poor roommate is sick, don't worry about me though, it's not contagious . . . it's just a cough and she's been getting nose bleeds because her sinuses are dry . . . we hooked up my humidifier and we got it runnin now . . .

wow, I've been typing for an hour, this is gonna be a long one . . . and I also noticed I've typed "we'll see" quite a few times . . . hmmm . . . maybe I'm tryin to tell myself somethin' . . . or maybe not . . . we'll see

well, I think this is about it . . . I've pretty much goofed off this week so far, so I really gotta buckle down and study for Bowen tomorrow and Marion's project . . . so I guess there won't be as posts tomorrow and Thurs . . . but there's definately be an entry before I leave Friday . . . Thursday night I get to go eat dinner with the Glassmans . . .Laura's cooking just for me and I miss Gabe and Abi and Sylvia . . . I babysat them these last two school years, but I couldn't this year because my class schedule wouldn't allow me . . . but I got the girls some Christmas presents, well I guess they can be Hanukkah presents, too, they're Jewish and celebrate both--Luck them! *hehe*  . . .

oh crap this desk is hurting my elbows! *grr* . . . ok, now I really think this is it . . . we'll see . . . nah, I think I'm just gonna end it, my roommate can't sleep and now we're having a random-ness discussion about different things . . . *lol* . . . so, yeah, g'night all and sweet dreams! *kisses* . . . on the cheek or otherwise! *JK*  . . . we'll see . . .

but seriously, Nite and Sweet Dreams . . .
