Can I complain? OK!

Because I feel the need to complain. Seriously. 

(if you hate negative posts. skip to the bottom, woo! but don't skip the first 2 paragraphs... or else.)

This week, is going to SUCK. It's going to be awful. Horrendous. Normally I can't predict these things and I don't even like predicting these things. It's like the last time I went to the dentist - I didn't want to go because I knew it was going to be awful - turns out I was wrong. It was the first time ever that she didn't scold me for not flossing 8 times a day. That was my mistake, shouldn't have been negative. This is more like the time when I knew putting duck intestine in my mouth was going to be an awful experience, and I did, and it was an awful experience. I know this week like I knew that duck intestine was a bad thing to eat.

This morning I woke up late with a splitting headache, and decided a shower might help. Well, it did help, until I stepped out of the shower only to find my toilet had overflowed (keep in mind, it hadn't been used since the night before, so it was normal good water). 3 towels for the floor and 1 for me, and that problem was solved... until I ran the dishwasher and washing machine at the same time, in which case it almost overflowed again. Luckily I stopped it from filling up by strategically jamming the plunger into the back basin in order for it all to drain. Also, luckily about 5 minutes later I heard a loud rushing sound from somewhere in the middle of the house and in a matter of seconds all my problems were solved. Great start for the week.

Now, let's get to the next 4 days:

Monday: Class most of the day until 5:15, followed by a Thermo test at 5:30 and a Bible Study immedietly after. Estimated time till bed? 11 or 12. Estimated time to study on Monday? 2 hours.
Tuesday: Class till 11, then workout, then 4 hours to study and do a massive HW assignment for my next class. Class at 5:30 until 7, followed by CRU until 11 (I'm the emcee so I kind of have to be there). Estimated time to study all day? 4 hours.
Wednesday: Short amount of time to study in the morning, followed by a CRU planning meeting immedietly followed by 1 test, then 2 test, then another class, then a 3 hour lab until 10pm. Two tests and no more than 1 hour to study. 
Thursday: Class till 11, then workout, then 4 hours to study for final test of the week. Freedom.

FOUR TESTS. A substancial homework assignment due in every single class I have a test in. I have been doing those homework assignments most of this weekend because they were just assigned last week (and I had other stuff due last week), and have had no time to study for any of the tests other than mild prep for my test tomorrow. Four tests with about 2 hours of total prep behind the first one, 5 hours of prep behind the next two (combined), and another four behind the final one. And knowing me, I don't have the ability to study for 4 hours straight without going crazy. 

So here's my thought:
D for Diploma. 

Translation:
I don't care. Better luck next test week.

Is there a bright side anywhere in this gloomy post? YES!!!
There will only be 4 days of hell as opposed to 5 (I love having Fridays off this semester). Also, the following Monday I get my braces off, and that next Thursday I'm flying to Orlando for the weekend (not for disney world tho)! So I hope and pray those two huge awesome things will help motivate me to survive this week. But I'll probably still stop caring come test #3 :)

I'm Addicted

I'm an addict to absolutely useless things . . . utterly useless, and utterly addicted. 

Facebook, Blogger, Twitter, Drudge... I'll click between them for an hour even if nothing has changed just to see if something has changed. I'll get on AIM or iChat or whatever and I'll stay on and never have a conversation with anyone for a 2 months. I'll sit in my car and miss the first 10 minutes of class because I'm listening to talk radio and I want to hear the next point. I piddle, going from one useless thing to the next, never doing what needs to be done, all while deadlines grow closer and the ability to complete necessary tasks becomes less and less likely. 

This right here is a good example. Delaying the inevitable. It's a terrible way to keep on living. I know it's bad, it's self-destructive, it's stupid. Yet I continue. I think that makes me weak. Probably. 

The pills will kill the pain... excedrin. Freakin headache. I have about 8 hours worth of homework due tomorrow evening, along with another 2 due in the morning. Tonight I have zero hours (other than the time I'm wasting now) to do those things. Tomorrow I'll have about 4 hours free (relatively). It seems I've waited too long!!

Now, I believe I'll dive into another valentines colored peanut m&m (the best kind) before grabbing an excedrin, a glass of water, and doing last minute prep for the small group tonight.

Vague Sentamentality

... is not what this post is going to be about.

Back in xanga world this is would this post would be about. I'd spill out emotions to unknown readers, sometimes not vague enough while other times too vague. Even though I'd love to do that again, I refuse. The internet is the last place where something like that should be done. I refuse!

Even though the last week has had a lot of that... back and forth, large change yesterday... stop...

Don't... do it... sto...

PANDAS!!!






Success.

Antisocial . . . a wee bit

I hate these moods. So stupid. Mopey for no reason other than to be mopey. Hah. Annoying. About 10-15 people are over here right now watching the Super Bowl, and I just have ZERO desire to be in there. None at all. I'm watching it in here on the computer. I'm just feeling... yeah... I don't know? Weird. 

Doesn't help that I have a lot of stuff I need to get done that I haven't gotten done. Just now finished Bible Study prep for tomorrow, and I don't feel good about it. Haven't been sure what to do it on all week. I also have about 6-8 hours worth of Statistical Quality Control homework that I've been putting off for almost 2 weeks, due on Tuesday, but I don't have any time to do it anymore because I waited too long. Bah. 

It's hit the time of year where I'm less and less excited about anything going on and more and more ready to just relax and do absolutely nothing. And I haven't even hit my first test. Those are next week, thank goodness not this week. 

Bah again.
