Starting to Produce

No…don’t worry, I’m not pregnant or anything. I don’t plan to do that until later. By produce, I mean be productive. Well, that’s what I plan on leading into. Here we go! I have been so busy lately, and I haven’t been able to breathe. The classes that I have been taking this semester have been requiring me to kill myself. 1) Intro Biology 2)Chemistry II 3) Multivariable Calculus 4) ENGR 112…with new curriculum 5) BAND!!!!!!!!! it makes me happy

Anyways, I have been getting the sleep schedule of my mother, which is really bad because she is 50 something years old. It’s fine for me…I’m just 19.

So yea, last night was freakin’ hilarious. After hours upon end of doing my MATLAB assignment and then going to the Engineering building (CVLB), I decided to go back to my room and just finish all the ENGR 112 hw that I have to do this week. I was planning on just chilling, maybe studying some biology hw for my quiz this week, but guess what…? The internet was down. (It turns out that all of Southside was down!) Now, I was very upset, basically because I haven’t stopped all day, and this was my way to do it. So, I went over to my friend’s, Taryn and Michelle’s room to see if I could use their internet, but it turned out that there internet was done as well. This made me relieved because it wasn’t just my room, but eh, problem was still not solved. So, we had the dorkiest idea ever. We decided to walk outside in the cold to the SCC (student computer center) so that we could do some of hw and of course, talk on line. The three of us went there, and we all got computers by each other. We also called one of our friend’s Kyle, who lives in Hart Hall in central campus, to come. We all 4 were sitting together and talking to each other which was soooo funny. I mean, c’mon, we could see each other typing and their facial reactions. One time that comes to mind so vividly is when I was describing how much work I had this semester to Michelle, and I was explaining it in the way that I know best. It went something like this:

Me: hey
Michelle: hey
Michelle: getting any work done?
Me: eh…kinda
Me: I’ve been working non stop ALL DAY LONG, so I think I deserve a 15 minute break
Michelle: yea, you’re right
Me: It’s like I’m about to convulse
Me: Wait 10 seconds

This is when, I get out of my chair, lay on the floor, and I start to convulse on the floor. So, at this point, Taryn, Michelle, and Kyle are cracking up laughing, and I have this really funny and distinctive laugh, so I’m trying not to make any noise (because we ARE in the SCC where people are trying to get work done), I basically start to hyperventilate to refrain from any noise. It was sooooo funny. Also, the guy sitting right next to me was like, “oh my god” when I started to convulse. It’s not everyday when someone randomly does that. I asked him if he thought I was a freak; he said no, but I’m thinking that he was hiding the truth. Eh…I don’t really care either. I had a good ole’ time, and it that’s all that really matters. Enough of that, I have a party time waiting for me later. And by party time I mean, lots of hw time. Maybe I’ll come back into civilization sooner or later. Carpe Diem!

Cold in College Station. That is hilarious!!!

I am slowing turning into a popsicle. I shouldn't complain. Today is the warmest it's been in weeks. Today it's a balmy 40degrees.

I'm thinking it'll be really fun in the spring with hundreds of thousands of N'Easterners yelling "I'm melting! I'm melting!" Now I know what it means to have a spring thaw.

Started to convulse!? You had your Dilantin. Someone put your Wallet in your mouth, surely ... it prevents one from biting one's tongue ... been there, done that. OUCH, No ...OUTH!!
College is a lot more fun when the Internet is down or so it would seem.
