1) I am done with all my tests this week, and I got pretty good grades on them
2) I am discovering new musical artists, and I like them!
3) Life is all about change, but when it comes down to it, people are all the same.
4) Spring Break ‘04 is going to rock!
5) Corps boys annoy the hell out of me sometimes.
1) This week has been pretty good, basically because all of the stress is over. This has been the first night out of 6 weeks that I have gotten more than 4 hours of sleep. (yea, I know). I slept from 12:30 a.m.-7:30 a.m. I really forgot what sleep was, and boy, does it feel good. It’s so sad that I woke up this morning, and I was like, “yay…i get to go to chem lab and take a quiz.” (no sarcasm here…seriously). It’s also really beautiful outside, which makes things wonderful. I like walking around the campus and just admiring how gorgeous it can really be. There are so many trees and random animals running around (particularly squirrels); it’s just nice sometimes.
2) One of my favorite muscial artists now is Matt Nathanson. Michelle showed him to me a couple weeks ago, and even though the lyrics don’t apply to me, I still like it. ( I find that I like a lot of songs whose lyrics don’t apply to me. e.g, the lumberjack song, etc…) The beat is something that I can relate to and the harmonies are good. He’s kinda cute as well, not like it matters, but we all know how girls are. Also, I find that I have different types of music for different things. Like, Matt ( first name basis) comes with me when I go running. Jason and John play with me when I want to study. and etc, etc. I’m sure everyone is like that.
3) I like the way that life transforms itself into something great all the time. Everyday, I find new adventures with people I see, things I do, things I experience. It’s so wonderful. :) But I think that no matter how individualistic people may be, we all want the same thing. Happiness. Joy. Convivality. And yes, I know that there are misanthropic people out there, who will say that that’s not true at all, and life is all destined to a fate resembling hell, but that’s not the way I am. I’m a chipper, and I plan on staying that way.
4) A year ago when I envisioned how awesome my freshman year spring break was going to be, I thought that I would be skiing / beaching with my newly made friends. eh, not at all now. Not only do I not have enough resources to go on those kind of adventures, home just sounds good. Basically, a plan of doing nothing. Already, I want to go to Austin to see a concert, go shopping for the heck of wasting time, seeing my awesome Boston friend, visit people, try to find a good job for this summer with another friend. R and R is what I need right now, and you know what?….I’m gonna get it. awesome.
5) Corps boys are really stupid I think. e.g. On Sunday, we planned on meeting from 6-8pm for an engineering team meeting. We picked this time because that’s the only time that THEY were available. Of course, I’m always busy, with such stuff as church and random homework things. So, since I was home this weekend, I was going to go to the earlier church service, but that didnt happen, so I just came to the conclusion that I was going to miss church for our very important engineering team meeting. I got to our meeting place at around 5:50 p.m., waited for a little bit, looked for them , started doing my own homework, looked again for them, tried to call…no answer. So, they just skipped. wow…i was frustrated. there are 4 people on a team. (so it was just me). And then I asked them on Tuesday where they were, and they just said that they forgot. grr. You just don’t plan on meeting and then not show up. And they were all nonchalant about skipping…another guy was like, yea, I went to a chem review instead. So, not only did all 3 of my other team members skip, it put be back timewise and i missed church. grrr. I think people should have more decency, but I guess it’s a learning experience for the real world that you shouldn’t be able to depend on other people. Not even to the smallest degree. Do everything for yourself and things will work.
Stupid corps boys.
more to come later, but now, i’ts some good ole’ matlabbing time.
Posted by Courtney at March 10, 2004 03:34 PMThat is too bad about your team members. Know that some people are dependable, mean what they say, and do what they say they are going to do. I hope their lackadaisical attitude about keeping appointments doesn't accompany them into their business world...
