The drive this morning...

I was driving and I happen to see silver Acura. We somewhat play cat and mouse (not the dangerous kind but the one where I past him and he past me.) I rather lost him around Cupertino. Ok not good to be checking out guys in cars while driving I know. I do it sometimes and most of the time I just sit, relax, and enjoy the drive home. I think my biggest pet peeves are those that drive in the fast lane while talking on the mobile (cell). I mean could you please move on over to talk on the phone or even dialing? Ok I know I have done it once or twice so I am guilty but going slow in the second to fast lane is somewhat dangerous.

I am in the library and I know that when I leave after checking out books that the alarm will go off. The woman who checked out my DVD did not disable it. I will let you know what happens. I now have to come up with some sort of power point presentation for next Tuesday.

Two dead some things on the road on the way home...

I woke up early this morning. I had awakened at 3.26 a.m. because I thought that it was 5.45 a.m. When it is that early in the morning, it all seems the same with the darkness outside. Therefore, I went back to sleep to get up two hours later and just decided that I was easier to stay up for the extra minutes instead of sleeping and then waking up again. I had a normal morning except that I spill coffee in the car. Also while drinking I spilled coffee on my shirt which made me mad.

I then went to return a book and thought that I had returned the right book (of course without reading the title that I grabbed to return). I then took my Buddhism midterm and thought it should be ok. Then when it came to the art history, one I bombed it. I mean I made up as much of the stuff that I could, but I am sure that if I were there from the start I would not have done so poorly. I ran into Jon who I had not seen since before finals last fall. Nice seeing him again because he would be the one that I would run into and not Allan.

On my drive home, I saw two dead some things. I thought how wonderful that is. To top that off the cassette part that you put into the cassette deck to play the CD player started to give on me. While I was almost home, I could have sworn that the guy in the truck next to me wanted to race me or he was hitting on me. I curbed the tire (tyre) the wrong way and I did not even know. I forgot to lock (put the Club on) the steering wheel. I mean if I am not that forgetful, I do not know what that it is. Pretty much that is how my day went. It started as a bad day then it went to worse and then to an overall somewhat better day.

So much for getting up early…

I set my alarm to wake me up the same time as I usually get up for school. No luck because I was just too tired to get up. I think I am also not feeling well. I wonder if it the clams that I ate last night. I did have quite a few of them. Alternatively, maybe it was the scallop. It is anybody’s guess to why I am not feeling well. Maybe it is because I do not want to go to school tomorrow so that I can have an extra day to study. I guess it could be called stage fright.

The only studying that I have done today is read some of the stuff that I have read already. This book you really have to take notes on it or you will get lost. I must also do the same for the book as well. Such pain and I wonder why I did not start on Thursday. More later or Monday once everything is over and done with.

I didn't want to get out of bed...so tired! *yawn*

Taking it easy on a Saturday and I no plans. I know I might have slept in or something. Seeing it is October when I am adding to this and I do not have a great memory I think I will just end it now.

Awaken by my own forgetfulness…and done some studying…

Yes, that is possible when you have a mobile. I totally forgot that I had the alerts on to beep. So instead of sleeping until the afternoon like I usually do or late morning I was awaken at 5.40 a.m. more or less. I think there was another one before that but I did not hear it. I mean I suppose it is because I am used to getting up about that time so my body has became aware of the sounds around that time.

I reckon it is time for me to study. I do not want to but since my Sunday has already has plans and I know I will not feel like lugging around my art history book. I have done a few things since I have woken up. I did look up terms and concepts. That is a start at least. I still have to read some of the stuff that I did not read and read what part of a typo was. Therefore, I have to get the rest of this done. At least tomorrow, I will not have much time but a little and then I can spend all of Sunday reading and worrying. I will not be on the internet for a while, or at least have on the computer but not have it to chat with. Sorry, for those of you who live to see me online,

Ok since the time that I have written the second paragraph I have looked up all the key terms and concepts for my Buddhism midterm review sheet. The only problems I will have are the questions. Now should I work on the art history or work on Buddhism? Decisions decisions that I have to make.

I woke up this morning with a headache…

I woke up to find my brother still at home. I thought how is that possible. He has school and I know I do not. I am suppose to study but instead I have not. I am just sitting on my rear doing nothing but watching TV. So I’ve taken a shower to get refreshed and ready to start studying. However before I start, I cleaned or hoovered the house. I think I will stop it at no cost to not study. Well now that I got everything that I had to do I suppose I should study?

I have ripped mp3s and watched Will & Grace and now watching Friends because I missed some of it. The closest thing I came to studying is opening the book and looking at the pictures. I have tomorrow right? Someone reassure me!

5.50 a.m. no alarm just an odd dream...

Before I woke up, I had the strangest dream. The person that I had met once somehow was in my car driving. There was also another someone a girl, but I do not know who she is. Then we were driving along some street and he pulled into the gas station only to pull out to do some sort of u-turn. While we were waiting to turn left a fire truck passed by and told everyone to roll down their windows. The smoke was nearby, I made a comment about smelling like a pack of cigarettes, and someone else said does not matter to me because I guess they smoked. I was also walking down some street and it was a street with lots of pool halls. People were trying to find others who could come and play. It was more business or office people who were there. They even mentioned looking for someone who was good to beat them.

I was in class and I was so tired I started to sleep. Not super noticeable but I was aware of it. During my art history class, I kept yawning and I was hungry. When I saw the slide of Stonehenge, it reminded me when I saw it on that cold Thursday that I would never forget. I drive home not going fast at only on the occasion at 80 miles per hour. While at home I take apart, my phone (mobile/cell) and I could not figure out how to put it back because the stuff fell out and I did not know what went where. I find out that lost a screw (no not a pun for me screwing up) and go back to find it. I had to check google to find out what that part I had and could not figure out what it was. I did put it back together and it does work. I dropped the stepladder on my foot, as I had to go back and look for the screw. Overall a kind of bad day and I hope the rest of the week goes better.

Realization while driving home…and at home…

I have concluded that I need to grow up. Be come an adult and stop being a high school student or like one. I guess I have not always been a people person. The only way I could ever really connect with people was on the computer. I know I am definitely not the easiest person to get along with but most of the time I try to be the one that is easy. I think I am having ones of those days where nothing seems to go right no matter what. It is called a bad day. Going to call it a night and hope for the best in the morning. Lack of sleep can really screw up a person.

Observations...

Dude was eating a peach in the library…

And he types really loud and fast as well. Off to lunch now. I am getting hungry actually. What should I eat? Sandwich is good. Then finish my homework (reading that puts me to sleep) and if I have time do some research. I know that seems like a lot but I am up for the challenge. Ok must get because getting hungrier if I just sit here and type and if the guy starts eating I might just rat on him.

After lunch now and I have roughly an hour before class starts. Getting out on a nice day is nice. Just sitting and absorbing the sun not so nice. I think I have been at least a little stir crazy this morning. Just sitting in the library and reading until I am tired is not a grand idea. I think I just needed to vent because I just hated sitting there and reading. Not my idea of a grand time reading about some movie director who I have not heard of but seen part of one of his movies.

People who use the alarm or reminder function should really have them turn off or set it for another time. A pet peeve of mine that I noticed while sitting outside eating my lunch because it stops then starts back up in three minutes. I guess I just do not like alarms of any kind. I am glad that today is cooler than yesterday. If it was as hot as yesterday I think I really might have gone mad and lost my head to the heat. Everyone else calls it having his or her brain fried because I would agree to that.

I guess my pet peeve for others is acting like the annoying little sister that I know I can be. In other words, I have not grown up yet. I suppose this is because I am the second to youngest out of my father’s side. When you have been like that for while it just makes you wonder if you will ever grow up. I think I need to, but sometimes it is just nice to be that “Toys R Us� kid that everyone is sometimes.

Accident free! But other drivers were weaving...

Last night I was able to talk to Allan. I have not spoken to him in so long. It was nice. I had to cut it short because I needed to go to sleep. It is not that I did not want to chat with him longer but I do not want another almost accident on the freeway. I am driving and some people drive crazy. I mean I know I was changing lanes from time to time so I did not have to follow slow cars but sometimes it cannot be helped.

I actually woke up without my alarm this morning. The funny thing is I was just talking about this with people in my aerobics class yesterday. The oddest thing was last night I almost forgot to set my alarm. I woke up about four minutes before I was to. I really did not want to get up. I was just having one of those nights where you have a dream and it really wipes you out in the morning. I just wonder how I knew how to get up before the alarm this morning.

I was driving as usual but slower in the fast lane or the second to fastest lane and I saw the strangest things this morning. Thinking about it makes me wince. I saw a raccoon or possum. That is normal. Some car last night or early this morning hit a deer! You know those giant things that there are signs for saying deer (or a picture of one) next 15 miles or something. Yeah I saw one. It was gross! I do not know if I ran over some of the guts but yuck! Therefore, I have seen a run over seagull by the mall area, possums, or raccoons on the freeway and now I can add deer to it.

If I ever run out of stuff to write, I will put my daily schedule. It is so routine and so robotic without much change. I swear you could read me like a book in the mornings. One of my longer posts since so much happened on the drive over to school. I do not know if I will follow up later tonight. I did not get my parking spot. =( Some car took it. I had to park further but it was ok because now I have some shade. =) I suppose I better get reading for my class that starts at half past one. I do not know if I can hold out. I might need a nap. I think it will be harder in the new library.

Too tired equals another close call equals almost an accident but avoided!

Ok so I got a small amount of sleep. I went to bed roughly about one a.m. ok maybe earlier. Well I woke up at 5.45 a.m. and I was tired. I swear it would be easier with time, but it has not especially Monday. I am driving and this car is going slow and since I usually have one hand on the horn, I honked it when I was so close to it. This is the second or third time and I am not proud of it either. I get to school ok safe. I think I left at 7.49 a.m. according to the clock in the car and am parked by 7.42 a.m. I drive like a crazy sometimes.

Well that is pretty much it. I took the time driving home unless I felt like going 90 and that was only when someone was tailgating me. I pretty much kept with the flow of traffic at about 75. I am surprised. It was not as if I was in a rush to head home. I tried to go slower while going up hill, but I also changed gears. I got my art history book and I will study like made come this weekend. At least that is the plan that I want to set now. I will not be online this weekend. I think maybe just check email but that is all. I had an easy day. I was going to take a nap this afternoon but I guess it will have to wait. That is all for now. Nothing else to report, but I think CL is so overrated. I am probably saying that because I have not gotten any replies after I sent out my pictures with my message. What is wrong with me?

A late start to what I thought was Saturday...

Honestly, I woke up this morning and thought it is Saturday. I come back from picking up lunch and walking in the heat, which I think, is about 80 or so but is actually 78 degrees. So what am I do too now that I found out that I lost a whole day?

Well I am going to work on what I have to and then figure out what reading I have to do for Buddhism class. That class is so strange. I do not know if it is the classroom itself or just the vibe that it gives off. I was talking with someone else in the class and he said that once he sits down in the class he wants to sleep. I could not agree with him more. The midterm is coming up and I am scared.

I actually did my laundry. I have not folded it yet or anything, but I am getting close to it. I did not think it would be possible to wear tank tops in San Francisco. Love the weather except when it is muggy. I will pick up my clothes and fold them. I will because I have no space for them.

A real boring day with mild cleaning...

I woke up. I ate my left over lunch from Friday. Talked to Adam and Mark, which helped. I really need to get a life. I have been somewhat working on my webpage. I have been working on the blog putting everything up here. I also decided to put up the pictures I have on my computer and to redo the whole pictures part of my webpage. I think it’s easier to have a directory type thing where people just click on it and look at it. Thumbnails tale time to load and not everyone has ADSL. So I have made a couple of changes to my website but not many that are noticeable. I do not think I will keep updating the xanga blog. Off to decide if I shall do laundry tomorrow.

I was somewhat reading my old blogs and I notice I do a lot of cleaning. Maybe I should be a housekeeper or something. Yeah right. On the other hand they make good money so why shouldn’t I?

Oops, I forgot to turn off my mobile...

Yup that is exactly what I forgot to do last night. I woke up by a SMS from Yahoo informing me about the weather report for San Jose. That was at half past six in the morning. I would then hear the phone go off again at some unknown time probably half past eight. Then when my brother came home that was the final straw. I had wanted to make spaghetti for lunch but once again, my brother took my idea and ate it before I had the chance. I ended up making pizza for lunch.

Then after lunch, probably a couple of hours later I decided that I want to have a tapioca pearl milk tea. I make my self one and end up eating most of the pearls. I ate the whole pack. It has been a while since I have had some. That is my defense and I am sticking to it.

Nothing else really, since I have homework I must do and just be bored out of my mind. I was tempted to post on CL but I figure I would get so many replies that I would just have to pull the ad and then be talking to five people and then it would go silent because I am boring.

Awake early on a non school day...

This morning I really did not want to get up. I do not think that I went to bed late but I usually do not get up until later on a Thursday. How odd I would be sitting in the passenger side and my brother driving to school. I know it sounds odd but he drives pretty good. I do not think I will tell him or his ego might get big. I waited at my brother's school for him to get out of class to head to the mall to buy stuff. Pretty much that's all that went on Thursday.

The morning the alarm did not go off...

I woke up this morning in a panic because I realized I did not set my alarm. I awoke to look at the clock at said 5.55 a.m. at least that would be the time that I would get up if I was super tired and just did not want to get out of bed. Not bad considering that I have been at this getting up for a few weeks now. A miracle that I even know to get up.
Cars that go slow should not be in the fast lane. They go at the pace of snails and just give you road rage because they are driving about five to ten miles above the speed limit while everyone else is going 15 to 20 miles faster. Ok that is what annoys me the most in the morning when I am driving to school. Patience is a virtue right? I must not have that because I can get road rage easy. Oh another thing that bugs me is that if you have at least two people in the car move to the carpool lane and do not block the lane that everyone else has to use because there is only one person in the car.

I am so irritated that the book I need for art history is not returned. I went back to the library after class and it still was not returned. Then I went to buy sandwiches for my lunch and I still had to fill up for gas. The irritating part is that by the time I finally left there were more cars on the road that I wanted. I did not get home until at least 3 p.m. The gas station that is a couple of blocks away was cheaper than what I paid for inside. That just irritated me the most. I was hungry and ready to eat.

Last night at dinner my brother and I were talking about how when you drive alone you are more careful, but if you have a car load of people you kind of freak out and do not drive your best. I think that is more true if it is with parents more than anything else.

Fast driving or just in a hurry?

I am driving to school this morning. I notice that at times I do go about 90 miles per hour. Is that so wrong? Also I can't help it if the other car behind me wants to pass me by. I need to at least change lanes safely right? I left the house or started driving at 6.48 a.m. and I arrived and parked at 7.48 a.m. that is 53 miles from my house to where I find parking. That has to be some sort of record for me. I did try to attempt to parallel park, but I just decided that I would give up. I honestly did try, but in the end, I did not want to hold up traffic. It would be horrible. Therefore, I parked further than I usually did. I am at school now wondering if I will have to pay for the CD that my CD-Rom drive ate yesterday.

Ok better finish reading for class and type up the paper that I have due as well. man I hate being a procrastinator, but also being a senior doesn't help either. You know senioritis if it is a real disease or not studies have yet to prove it.

Too Fast and too furious isn't me...

I had one crazy day. Driving wise that is. I know I said I wasn’t going to go more than 90 miles, but that didn’t happen today. I went to at least 115. I know what am I mad? Yes probably. I couldn’t help it. The car behind me was going fast. I had no choice but to speed up and switch lanes. She must have been going like 120 or something. I’ll fix this up tomorrow at school. And yes I know there is one other that needs my revising as well.

Sore in bed is that possible?

Yes, I was sleeping in bed and I did not want to move. I felt as if I sore. I do not know why. I am also tired. I want to go back to sleep but I cannot. I am up and wonder what I have to be done. I think I need to get the CA stuff done and the movie review. I know I have reading to do for Asia 142 but I need to get the other stuff done first. There is so much to do and so little time. I should have had all of this done yesterday already. What did I do with my time? Wash the car? Chat online? What?

I wonder what the fine is for driving a car without a driver’s license is. Well to make a long story short I went to pick up my brother last night and I forgot to bring it. Honest I did! It was only I saw a police car that I thought oh great I do not have it! At least I was not caught and at least I did not get into an accident.

It is now about 9 o’clock at night. I have not worked on my homework and only sorted out what I am going to do for my art history class. I have not even bought the book. I suppose I should go and work on homework. Nothing better to do anyway. I hate flies especially small ones that fly around in your room. The larger ones are the worse cause you cannot smack them dead with your bare hands. The smaller ones you can but you end up having fly guts on your hands. Gross.

ABC no more...

So, I woke up this morning pretty early, but later than if I had to go to school. I awoke at 6.45 a.m. to wake up my brother. He takes the longest to get ready out of the whole house. He took my position as the girl! He takes so much time.

Well I drop him off at his friend’s house because he is volunteering for this anime convention thing. Then I head off to my mom’s work to pick up something for this contractor for the company. Then it was off to Chinatown.

For breakfast, we head to ABC on Jackson Street. After eating there and it had not even been an hour, I get a stomachache. That was not pleasant. So I make it a point to never eat there again for breakfast. In case you are curious as to what I ate, it was a paper wrapped sponge cake.

I come home and have lunch then wash the car. I spend so much time cleaning off the sticker that says, "SCHOOL'S OPEN DRIVE CAREFULLY (all in caps) AAA logo"€� and looked like a school bus. My hands are numb from cleaning it with an eraser (rubber to you English folks) and alcohol. I then tried to give the illusion that I washed the car. All I did was take the hose (pipe I think English people call it) and hosed it off. Then I just wiped it dry and I could not have spots (dirty bits) so I just wiped the whole car. I am also tape transferring which means I have no TV watching in my room. I suppose I better get down to writing my review for the movie. In addition, anything else I have to do, maybe I will do laundry.

Awaken by the heat because it was too hot to sleep.

8.12 a.m. and I am up. It was just warm when I woke up. I wanted to sleep later, but that did not happen. I was up probably at about seven something in the morning. What did I do after I woke up? I just watched TV and checked out CL. Pretty much that was about it.

I decided to wipe the screens for the windows and the windows themselves. Yes, I must have been bored at least I found something to do today. I cleaned them all and even my own. They were long over do. I even put in the screen yesterday to make sure they we could open the windows so air could flow.

It was 94 at the highest temperature. 94 degrees but it is not bad because if you are near the ocean it is not that hot, but if you are inland in the valley, it is pure hell. I am glad I am not land locked.

A day off...

I woke up this morning and it was 11.41 a.m. Before noon, I was up and that is the hard to believe part. I thought I could sleep later but I could not. I think that that was late enough. I think the heat woke me up. I have some food, and then stop for the day, and do some house cleaning hoovering (vacuuming), scrubbing, and putting away my contacts. I left them in a temporary case and sort of forgot about it.

I taped the Pilates DVD so I could exercise when I am at home. Once my brother came home I had to go and take the car alarm remote to get fixed. I get to the location and it is a house. Yes a house and not an actual business. So then, I went to KFC/Taco Bell/Pizza Hut. I buy a meal and take it home. I find parking and head on in to buy my food. I take it home and enjoy. So then, I go and look to see where the nearest car alarm place that can fix it for me is and it is just down the street.

The guy ended up screwing up my alarm. I did not find out until my brother tried to unlock the door. I was calling people left and right to find someone to fix it. Thank god, someone came through. My cousin’s friend fixed it. I was so happy. At least I know how to disarm it. It works again now. I am so tired. I think I will call it a night.

Almost caught...

Today I woke up. I got out of bed. I went to put water in the kettle. I left the house early hoping to get an early start on the drive to school. I could not figure out how to defrost the back window. Yes, I am telling the truth. I even rolled down the window to wipe the side mirror because I could not see. The fog was so thick at times I went slow and tailgated. I ended up at school and parked at about the same time. I headed off the library as usual. I used up my media credits or whatever you call them from my library card. As I was leaving the library, I set of the alarm. I do not know why or how but the security guard said, "I can help you over here Ma'am." I was called Ma'am and I did not like that. I am not that old nor do I look that old.

I leave class and I try to add another class that I so desperately need. I get in! I have 4 days of work to catch up on. I have three chapters to read. I have no book to read because I did not purchase it. I buy lunch and head back home. I stop for gas to see the prices are changed and I am irritated because the prices when I filled up were high. After I finish the prices are lowered.

So I head on to 280 and I am in the lane that eventually becomes the carpool lane. However, at the time it was about two or one something so it should have been ok to be in the lane. Before it changed into the carpool lane, I had a feeling I would be pulled over for using the lane and or speeding. Well I am in the lane going roughly 90 m.p.h. and I see this odd looking car in the rear view mirror. I decided to go in the slower lane and let the car pass. The car passes me by and I find out it is a C.H.P. car. I thank god I changed lanes and went slower. I could have been hit with a ticket.

I make a little pit stop on the way back because my eyes were killing. I was glad I brought my glasses with me so I could pull over, put them on, and take off my contacts. My eyes were burning. I drove home and parked the car and remembered to close everything somewhat and parked beautifully. That was my day.

My drive home..

I am driving home and going about 90 miles per hour. I know that is fast and really insane to be going that fast. Eventually I had to stop on the side of the road because my eyes were hurting so bad from my contacts. It is not that I do not wear them a lot but because my eyes were dry. This happens from time to time. I do not remember what the car stuff was.

Limping still and driving fast...

Ok I leave about a minute or two late from my house. Ok not the house but you know actually start driving. I am so close to school, but the only thing standing in my way is slow cars. I am past the Gilroy exit and almost past “the apple exit� and going on my way when there are so many cars. They just seem to come out of nowhere. I mean all of a sudden it was traffic. Not bumper-to-bumper but like everyone decided to go to work on Tuesday and not Monday. There was some slow car I mean slow in the lane next to the carpool one and it was soooooooo slow. I could not pass it and I was so irritated. On the other hand I made it to school by 7.43 a.m. when I left at 6.54 a.m. Not bad timing on a Tuesday and I know why only a minute faster than my regular time because at one point I was pushing at least 95 m.p.h. and mostly going at the rate of 80-85 m.p.h... I know I am a speed demon. I was also eating breakfast in the car while driving and I took paper towel to wipe the rear view mirror because it was either frosty or dirty. I could not tell but there I am driving and cleaning the mirror going at about 70 to 80 m.p.h. and I am not sure how fast.

I do not walk slowly but since my calf is not any better, I limped for the most part to school. It took me at least 15 minutes to get from the car to the library. I try to find some books or movies to entertain me while I have my long weekend. I should probably be doing homework and focusing on my Buddhism class. I have so much to read but only one book is difficult that we are currently reading. Nothing else to report but doing the same stuff like reading ads posted on CL (Craig’s List) and not doing any homework. I just hope that traffic going home will not be too bad.

Monday again?

Ok so I said I would not drive 90 miles per hour. I broke the 90 mark this morning and this afternoon. I woke up this morning not wanting to get out of bed. I could have sworn I heard the VCR go off this morning to tape what I usually tape. (The BBC business news on ABC at 2.57 a.m. everyday is what I tape and they do have some interesting stories unrelated to business as well.) Yes, I do watch it because I miss England and those English accents. They have an Australian fill in occasionally when the regular reporter is off on holiday.

On my way home, I had on the radio and I was signing. I was driving fast, singing, and drinking water. Yes I did all of the above. I sang some silly songs at the top of my lungs. I wonder if others heard me through the one window that I had opened. Lovefool by the Cardigans, What I Am by Tin Tin Out, and a few others I think. Oh, update on my toe. It is still red and purple kind of. I did aerobics on a bad toe and now I think I pulled my calf muscle. My second class was cut short (thank you) because the door was lock and broken and we had to find another classroom and the clock was fast so we ended early. It was hard staying awake in class. If I had my laptop, I would have played Spider. That is about it.

Second laundry update for today...

I have folded and put away everything or almost everything that I had washed yesterday and dried. I am now waiting for the second load that I put in the wash today. Be so proud of me. It is done and put away. However, this second load might just sit in the basket for a week or longer. I have left it like that before for at least two weeks. I know it will be wrinkled but who cares. Ok since this title was written, I picked up the second load and have folded everything and put it away. I even changed my sheets and pillowcase. Yay! I did a good job. I pat myself on the back.

Red and purple toe…

Yes, I have a red and purple toe. You might be wondering why I have one. I am an oaf to put it simply. I ran my toe (on accident mind you) into the foot of my bed. You know one of those legs that are just there but sometimes you just run into them? I have done it with chair legs too and tables. I guess I am a klutz after all. I was limping yesterday and I was this morning as well. I suppose it should get better soon. I mean how long can it take? I do not think it is broken but I will have it checked out. I should have iced it down yesterday. Oh well.

I woke up this morning and drove to Chinatown. I cannot parallel park to save my life. I swear that is the honest to god truth. I tried to but I could not. During breakfast, I was yawning so much because I did not get enough sleep. I know I will have to cut it short today and head to bed at about 9 p.m. I went to the Autumn Moon Festival in Chinatown today. It was crowded, but not too crowded. I did not buy anything. They usually have the same stuff when it is New Years as well. Off to see to my laundry that is dried, but in the dryer. Now to see how long it takes me to pick it up and fold it.

Laundry update…

I have started the loads of washing. One down and about two to go...or just one more load. I am just too lazy to separate the darks from the lights. I will take a chance and wash them together. Therefore, that is the update on my laundry. How odd I would talk about laundry in my blog. Now I just wonder how long it will take me to fold it and put it away. Any bets? One week or two?

Shaolin Soccer postponed again!

I decide to look up when Shaolin Soccer is supposed to hit the theaters and it is still not out. I go to Yahoo’s site to check out when the release for it is and it said the MiraAXE (that is what most sites that talk about how they keep postponing the release) has decided for a 4th quarter release that means October, November, or even December. Now that is not fair for those of us that have seen the DVD version or the VCD version with subtitles in its original form. Hurry up and release it! My god! How long can it take?

I have another blog?

Ok I started another blog. Who knew so many of those sites existed? I have another blog at Xanga.com but I know I will not be keeping that one updated. Maybe I should have that linked to here. That might be best.

I woke up this morning about 9.41 a.m. and I had the strangest dream. I mean it was strange. There was a soap opera series that I was watching a little before I went to bed and somehow one of the characters was in my dream. Well to get to the point I somehow was getting married. Do not ask me why but that is what I remembered the most. We were getting ready to head to the church and I was scrambling to put on make up and get dressed and find shoes and tights (stockings) and anything else that I needed. The groom was one of the characters from the soap opera.

You are thinking is she joking. No, I am not joking. That was just strange. Out of nowhere, I have this dream. It was only getting ready to head to the church but me in a wedding dress. Can you picture it? Just a strange dream.

T. G. I. F.

Today I woke up at five in the morning. I do not know why. I just did. Then I really woke up at about a quarter until eleven. I was tired and I even went to bed a little later than usual. I think I have noticed that ‘early to bed early to rise’ thing or, the saying of ‘the early bird gets the worm’. I made myself lunch and now and wondering what other things, I have to do. I have to do my laundry, which is ridiculous at this point because being a college student you rather neglect what has to be done first.

Sense and Sensibility it is! I will watch that and do my paper. Better to have it done now and not later or at the last minute. I will spend the weekend working on homework. That is the plan. I will keep you updated on how I am doing with laundry (probably not going to touch it at all) and homework.

A little slower means other drivers get road rage...

I made myself or promised myself that I would not go over 90 miles per hour. That worked just fine. I even got to school 2 minutes faster than usual. Maybe because it is Thursday and not the rest of the week and I have no idea how that happened. I have a new parking spot. It has a lot of little bird poop but it is an easy space to park. I have parked there the past two days. I see cats’ everyday. I saw a calico one today. and I saw that same black cat I saw the other day. I think they are strays.

I am sure that I walked a mile so I deiced to skip the gym. I was going to work out but I found a workout in itself by walking from the car to the library. While at the library, I took out everything and anything. I must have borrowed 10 pounds worth of books. After I finished checking out the books from a self-check out machine that is in need of repair I walked back to the car. I was not going to head to the gym with a lot of weight on my back. On the way, back I noticed my backpack was feeling a little light but still heavy. I dropped the books in the car and headed over to work out at the gym and to buy lunch afterwards. That was the plan, but however I was walking and I saw one of my books that I checked out on the ground. I started to freak out thinking I might have dropped more books so I walked the same path back to school. I decided to go walk over to the gas station to see if the price had gone down. It had not. Then I decided why not just buy the sandwiches and head over to the gym. I did not feel like going to the gym so I walked all the way back to the car.

I am sitting in the car and I decide I want to sleep, but I do not because they say do not sleep with contacts. I did with the soft ones, but the hard ones I do not want to risk it because it can get scary if it is stuck in your eye. I drive slow and below the limit going to pick up my brother from school. Cars pass me and I notice that it is not hard to go with the flow of traffic and just forget how fast you are driving. If you keep looking to see how fast you are going then you will stay within the limit, but if you do not then you will go over for sure. We drive home and i see him trying to car the car on a hill, which is his second time or something, and he is taking a long time. I said I‘d park it just so we do not spend eternity waiting for one another. The only problem is that he adjusted the mirrors so I had a little bit of a problem trying to back up. Then later on, I had to move the car that is when I just said forget it and adjusted the rear view mirror to my height.

Am I driving too fast?

I am going to start with what happened last night. I got a headache and went to be early. I watched a little Queer Eye for the Straight Guy before I went to sleep and turned off the television. Yes early is before 11 p.m. I also was in pain from my left shoulder. I do not know why or how it got there. However, it was there.

I then woke up this morning to find out that there were lightning storms but nowhere near where I was driving. I usually watch the news to find out the weather and the traffic incase there is some accident and it will take me longer to get to school.

I am driving and on my way to head for the freeway. The cars ahead of me were super slow. I do not know why. The best part was I was driving at about 80 miles per hour and I spot a sheriff’s car. I thought that car is not C.H.P. (California Highway Patrol) so nothing to worry about if I just go at a normal pace. (A normal pace on that freeway is about 80 miles per hour.) All of a sudden, I see the Sheriff's car chase after someone. At this point, I was enjoying my drive because I was not the one being chased for speeding. However, I lost the car because all the other cars were going too slow! I drive and it rains on and off looking like pigeon droppings coming down fast. I have never driven in the rain so I do not know at all.

I come home and I believe while driving to school I do hit the 90 miles an hour mark. I know that is bad. I think I might have gone 95 at one point but it is hard to tell. On my way home, I know I did do 90. I watched as I went that fast. Speeding is bad and I know it too. I have tried to slow it down some. I will not go 90 again! (Let us just see how long I can do without going 90 on the freeway.)

The alarm did not go off!

That is the story of my life for today. Only because the alarm was set for my eye appointment on Friday and I forgot to set it back. I blame them or my alarm would have been set for a quarter before six. I remembered to turn it on so that is a plus. The bad part I forgot to check the time. I think I should get partial credit.

There was way more traffic today than last week. I hope it is just people heading back home or something. I do not think that I could stand this traffic if it was everyday. But then again I only have classes now on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. I should really find something to add. I am super desperate now. I am looking and finding stuff but I might as well study something I have a slight interest in.

I wonder how my brother will react if I do not have classed on Thursdays.

Labor Day!

Labor Day! Everyone be happy to have the day off. I enjoyed mine a lot. I spent it sleeping in until twenty past twelve. I also was able to watch a couple of movies, which is always nice. I watched A Walk to Remember and it was sad. I cried. It was so sweet of Shane West to change and become a good boy. I loved the movie and it reminded me of Here on Earth. I do not know why but I guess that the message is similar. Well now I have to get down to work (that is homework) and looking for another class that I can take for credit no credit.
