Anti-Shell Matter

I love it when my head fucks with me. I *love* it.

Calculus and government done; favors for favors, laddies.

House, M.D. kicked ass this evening, as usual. Wong Foo is on Bravo right now until 11:00 PM Arizona time if anybody wants to watch that. I had to pry myself away from the TV after fifteen minutes. To anybody who is not familiar: it is a popcorn-fluff feel-good movie about drag queens, and everybody loves a good drag queen.

So close to being done with this college crap, for now--at least, until it's time to apply to honors colleges. Head down power through.

Fuck you, college applications. The FAFSA was especially annoying. What worries me is that it kept asking about the 2005-2006 school year, when I want to apply for 2006-2007. If I did that for nothing--

My guitar class's workbook is laughably bad. No less than half the songs are titled after books (with the suggestion to read that book by so-and-so), and judging by the songs of the books I have read, the songs just don't... make me think of the book. Seriously. Consider level-1 picking-out-notes nonsense titled "A Wrinkle in Time", or whatever, and while I will admit that book was surreal and the song could be considered ethereal--somewhat--it's not quite the same effect. I think they just ran out of song titles for the etudes.

And, there's some random song called "Sakura" with Japanese lyrics. I kid you not. This amused me greatly.

Philipi brought his video i-pod to calculus and has infected me with this urgent need to finally get an mp3 player. It's shiny and slick and pretty and it plays Family Guy and it's sooooo nice. My family has been promising me an i-pod since last Christmas (and the past birthday), so I should collect on that.

( Because this is more interesting than telling UC Berkley why it wants me. )

Right. Back to work.

Memething from finmefiant and tanuki_dono.

1. Reply with your name and I'll respond with something random about you.
2. I'll tell you what song/film reminds me of you.
3. I'll pick a flavour of jelly to wrestle with you in.
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
5. I'll tell you my first memory of you.
6. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.
8. If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal.

Half-days are glorious. I went to Chipotle with the Nerd Herd, visited Lizzy in the hospital and watched some quality daytime television (today's topic: bisexual male gigolos confess their night jobs to their wives), picked Rachel and her friend up from the mall, and I am planning on spending the rest of the afternoon working out, doing homework, and researching stuff for college. And looking for community service. For college.

I should just scrap this and go to Saguaro Continuation College to take advantage of Jeff's money laundering scheme. I could get a degree in something-computer-related and give up on excelling. And stuff.

And junk.

I'm pretty sure that if I go in-state I'm going to the University of Arizona in Tucson, so that at least narrows something down. Maybe that would be the best option until I decide in which direction I want to go. It's a top-tier school, the best for the money, and two hours from home. I can hit up UCLA and whatnot for post-grad.

Maybe when I take Rachel to her dance lesson this evening I will stop by Goodwill to attain some new pants, finally.

So, today was a day of grand fun with Lauren and Tara, who I had not seen since Anime Expo. We saw Red Eye (Cillian Murphy, again!), hung around Fiddlesticks and my house, and went to Pei Wei; all-in-all, a good day. Supposedly Annie and I got married and divorced no less than five times. It sucked that Kaity was at work all day, since she did not get to hang out with us as much, but such were the circumstances.

So, within the next two days, working around Chelsea's party, I've got mucho worko to get done. Ergo, somebody tell me why I am still awake at 3 AM wasting my time on this.
