There's white stuff falling from the sky outside!! Rather unexpected. I walked out of my genetic engineering class and was like, bwah?!

I'm in such a good mood right now. I walked out of class and it just hit me how lucky I am at this point in my life. I suppose it helps that I got my exam in gene engr. back and was very happy to see an 86 on the back. Oh I'm happy. I got all the multiple choice right (that's what usually screws me over) and I pwned the essays despite totally guessing on one of them. *AND* I got a "that's great!" on my SSLP=silly snails like popsicles. *grin* Basically the thing that made me lose points was the straight definitions. I basically got 2 of the 6 definitions right... *sweatdrop* Nonetheless I'm happy cuz that just means that I have the basic concepts down very well.

(OoooOOooh.... the flakes are really big and pretty now...)

(Now playing- Circle by Slipknot *sways*)

The above music choice only demonstrates the level to which Jacob's music taste has affected me. I tend to find musicality everywhere. Expose me to a type of music long enough and I'll start to find something to like about it. It takes effort sometimes, but I like to think you can find music everywhere. (rather poetic, ne?)

We watched an amusing video about genetically modified food in class today. My favorite part is when they talked about the American reaction to GM food... No one knows they're eating it and that they have been eating it for years. But when they're told they get upset and are all like "think of the the childrens!!!! oh noes!!!1!1!11!!" I'm in like, wtf? Although I'm not sure how I feel about tampering with natural selection and all that. Eh...

Perhaps I shall do some reading for poli sci since... y'know... I didn't go to class at all this week...

Sooo... yeah. School. Heh. So far so good?

First day was yesterday with half my classes. 8-10:45am back to back genetics classes might just kill me. The guy for the 8am is not that great a lecturer, but I will have to make sure to drag myself to every single class. Every class, we're going to be spending the last half doing groupwork that needs to be turned in and all groupwork is worth 40%. *Also*, any missed class means half a point taken from your final grade. *sigh* But at least my second class is awesome cuz the professor is really excited about the subject and everything looks cool. Then there's Stats 2, which is boring and taught by some lady who bores me to tears... Eh...

It's raining out. It wasn't when I left this morning. And then it was when I walked out of bio... and I had to walk across campus in windy rain. Only to discover that I was supposed to go to the comp lab... *not* the lecture half. So I walked back across campus and went to get my login name. Yup... and now its noon but I'm not hungry.

My throat is still in major pain. Jacob took a look at it with a flashlight and said everything is all swollen around my tonsils and lymphnodes... *sigh* So I'm taking a quick trip over the infirmary later today to see if there's anything I can do because it's getting to the point where doing anything except breathing is hurting... and even then, I can feel like pressure from that area and it's giving me a headache. (It even hurts when i yawn...)

._. how typical... maybe I can go eat some soup... *wibble* or maybe i'll try stir fry just cuz it's so good....

mmrph....

oh man... what an awesome anime line. I need to remember that one.

Well.. after much thinking I have decided that I will not being going on the trip. Especially since at this point I would need to be waiting outside the Life Sciences Building in less than 8 hours. lol. Oh well, the trip was optional anyway and from the looks of things about 5 other people are also not going. *shrug* I find myself not caring. 2 hours in a bog today was my limit. No more until Wednesday.

I pwned my genetics quiz today despite not having gone to lecture since the first week of school. <3

Tonight was fun and exactly what I needed. Went to dinner with Gerg, Emily and Jacob. I was soooo hyper. We then went out to visit the cows!!!!! (fuzzies!) It was fun. I haven't been out there in a loong time and it was nice to see the animals again. This was followed by walking on a grassy hill and lying there looking at the stars. It was nice... and on the walk back I picked a bunch of wildflowers. They're now in my water bottle on the dresser. Kawaii~!

This was followed by watching Bleach with Jacob as random drunk girls wandered in and out of his room. According to him.. that's normal. I left around midnight thinking that I wanted to be in my room. But when I got to the empty room, I realized I didn't want to be there. So I went and chilled with Justin for a while. Watched tv.. watched him install linux on his other desktop (the kid has for comps!)... yeah. Fun times.

Which brings me to my new project to add to learning how to glowstring, drawing and learning how to do a proper handstand. I'm going to learn linux! That probably sounds crazy, but I was watching Justin install linux and decided that I want to try. My solution? I still have that old laptop from freshman year and no one at home is using it. So I'm going to bring it up here and install something on there. It'll be an adventure. And then that way I'll also have something to take around with me if i ever need a computer to type something or whatever. Should be an adventure.

I'm so unsane... Perhaps I will go dl those .iso things so I can poke at stuff on my comp and get used to linux... yay for live cds!

ps- I'm so obssessed with Vanilla Ninja. They're an Estonian pop/rock/metal chick band. And they're awesome and next to impossible to find online..... *wibble*
