Hey, I'm on again! Whoo, I've been up to my eyeballs in work. Literally, since I've been doing all the reading. ^_^' All I have left now is three essays on "Silas Marner" and a paper on Roe v. Wade for my gov. course.
Of course, I still have the essays for "Jane Eyre". Only one is done. Wanna know why?! Because my laptop DIED ON ME AGAIN.
AGAIN.
I had done the last two essays - and writing - that day and the day before, and that night I went to save the stuff. My computer hadn't been doing anything, just sitting there like all computers do. Then it shut down, and refused to turn back on. The little ungrateful piece of SHIT. So, if they're unable to fix it, or at least unable to save my data that I hadn't been able to update into my flash drive - I'm so screwed over. I'm screwed three times from Sunday, because I CANNOT rewrite those two essays. I did a kick-ass job on them, and if I have to do 'em over, I'm dead meat. Roadkill.
Shit. Well, at least I can bitch about it, since there's nothing else to do. So, I haven't had my laptop since Thursday night. WHAAAAA!!!!! At least my mom's cool and lets me use her computer for my email and crap. So, I've been able to stay in touch, however slightly.
Ah, gotta say this. I am SO HAPPY
EvilMonkey and
GoodMonkey are back on. I missed those two!! So, give 'em a visit and say hi. ^_^
Also, I am HORRIBLE at checking sites lately. I don't know why, but I'm bad. So, if you wanna get in contact, I still check my PMs regularly - or try - and have my email up. Some people are keeping tabs on me that way. ^_^'
I've been watching "Shear Genius" lately. It's addicting. I thought it was going to be really bad, but my mom and I are hooked. I mean - come on! I've never seen that many gay people in the same room before. Good God. But, it's funny and pretty good, so give it a try. Humor me, damn it!!
I've gotten almost zero writing done since my laptop fried, which depresses me. It seems that the best way to cure writers' block - listen up, people! - is to have no computer. I have carpel tunnel syndrome, so using the keyboard for all my work is a lot easier than writing it all out by hand, which I have to do now for all my essays. It's a bitch, even if I do use so much shorthand I don't know what the hell I wrote. Ah well. So, I can't really write by hand anymore, or I'd do that. But, I have my trusty flash drive, and not much of my creative writing hadn't been saved, so I can pick up there on my mom's comp and just save it all on the drive instead of her comp. I'm slowly getting back into the groove.
I'm still trying to get some more manga. Haven't gotten any in a LONG time. Or anime. Been watching Bleach on TV though, so at least I got that. I haven't been to work at the edu. center since I last said I took a break, and I finally went back to work at the gov. center this week. Yea! So boring, but what do you want? I'm looking for a job that will actually PAY me once I finish up all my crap, and my boss at the gov. center said I can use him as a reference. And apparently he's well-known in town, so that'll help me out.
I'm just so happy that I can see the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel now. I'm still nervous about college, but now it seems I'll be able to graduate by June, which was my goal. Yea!!! And don't even bring UP getting my license. God forbid my father actually do what he said he would and practice with me. Since he promised he'd start taking me out regularly, we've been out....three times, I believe. In three weeks. Yeah. Big whoop. I gotta save money for a cab - I'll need it.
Other than the license, which really pisses me off since I didn't want to have to renew my permit when I'm 18 next month, everything's going pretty smooth. I've had some up and downs, but it's okay. Turns out this guy I've liked for a while - didn't realize how much until now - has a girlfriend, so that kinda got me down. Still not sure how I feel about it. Huh. Guess I'm just screwed over in that department. Whatever.
Yes, I'm bitter and cynical. And so right. When the VA Tech thing happened, first it was all about the shooting, then the shooter, then a few things about the dead kids - and then nothing. I TOLD my parents that was going to happen the day of the shooting. Who the hell gives a damn about the shooter?! He went and killed all those people - no excuses, you bastards. And has anyone said anything about the professor who blocked the door with his body so his students could escape, and died because of it? NOOOOOOOOOO, of course not. Because we must be politically correct and be sympathetic and find excuses for the killer, because of COURSE no one could do that normally. Heaven FORBID society be proven to be immoral and disgusting.
Obviously, that pisses me off too. God Almighty, what a lowlife, scumbag, whoring society we live in, where the killers are risen to martyrs and dead are forgotten by all. Hmph.
Really.
Well, I'll close before I rant some more. I'm sure I'll get a pic of my pup Banshee up one of these damn days. He's just so darn CUTE!!!
PG
Me again!
