Every time that I try to read my philosophy book, I just want to watch the Buffy episode of Beer Bad. Just thought that you should all know that.
Week two of classes is about to come to and end. I have my weird "how to succeed in community college" class tonight, then I'm free until Tuesday. Well, free in the sense that I don't have class... I still have to work every single day. And I have homework. Oh, the joys of going to school full time and working full time.
I'm having my interview on Wednesday for the photo lab position, so if someone out there is actually reading this... wish me luck, asshole.
I think that my English teacher is kind of hot... like, everyone else in the class keeps talking about how weird he is when he's not in the room. This one chick thinks that he reminds her of a serial killer. I think Dexter (Michael C Hall) is extremely attractive, so I don't really understand their problem. Either way, he's hot. Just sayin'.
On another note about English, I hate writing essays. I always feel like I sound completely stupid and I wish it could be like my fiction writing class. We just had a set amount of fiction writing that we had to do before the end of the semester. It was so lovely, I wrote all kinds of shit on my own time and it counted. I didn't have to worry about facts or worry about offending anyone. I wrote some pretty vulgar shit for my classes.
Shit, I miss Chicago. I just miss three years ago when everything, EVERYthing was different.
I've been trying to get a hold of my advisor to set up my classes for next semester, but she hasn't returned my phone calls. maybe I need to get a little more annoying? :)
Also, I'm in insane need of a haircut.
Well, that kept me busy for three minutes. Back to homework. At least I'm not in this heat slaving away at a certain theme park - it's seriously 100 degrees outside. It's fucking September! Cool the fuck down.
no music, just the sound of my fingers on keys.

men like you - you kill me.
So I survived my first day of school. Math was painfully boring, the teacher's first language was Chinese and she's really hard to understand and follow. Plus, I knew that I was bad at math, but I'm not THAT bad. Our first lesson was on how to add and subtract negatives. WTF?
Seriously, this girl actually raised her hand and asked, "So if you add -2 + -2... is that zero?" I wanted to ask her how she finished high school, but I just buried my head into my arm and died inside. At least I'll ace this class...
Saturday was HORRIBLE. Cashiering is terrible enough, but Saturday cashiering. Blech.
And then Sunday I had to be up at five in the morning and my allergies were bothering me. So I took a pill, but it didn't take long to realize that I took the WRONG pill. It was a painkiller... The kind where you take it and crash. Shit :( It was horrible, I felt like I was dying and my head was fuzzy all day.
Still waiting to hear about the job position. I did inventory for them yesterday, which I've never done. It was fine.
Work tomorrow, then class in the evening - English comp.
Oh, by the way, other than math I had Philosophy taught by a pastor. So this'll prove interesting.
Goodnight, all.
Currently watching Torchwood. Jack quote up there. ^

my heart stops, I already know
So the sister is moving back home. This is going to prove very annoying.
TORCHWOOD OMG. So good. Left it with a huge cliffhanger, so I'm going to go crazy waiting for the next episode. Oh, and some hot Jack being nakedness, so definitely a plus.
I have to cashier tomorrow from 8:30 until 5. I'm. Going. To. Die. I hate cashiering for a couple of hours, let alone for a full day. And I have to get up super early and everything. Grr arg. I hope I get this promotion - put in my application yesterday. Cross your fingers...
School starts up on Tuesday. Four days. Yikes. Four days and say goodbye to a social life. At least until my birthday, when I've asked the entire weekend off and plan on getting totally shit faced. Yay!
Spoke to a guy that I used to talk to a lot back in the day. If he wasn't so geographically undesirable, I'd probably marry him. Just sayin'. Also, I think that I'm pan sexual. I just figured out what this meant the other day, but I'm pretty sure that this is what I am.
My crushes/feelings aren't restricted to sex, I fall for personality.
Sounds like me. And a couple of prior situations. I was also completely infatuated by this girl that I had theatre class with back at Columbia. I wanted her to play the main character in my show... and I also wanted to ask her out. Which was a very confusing want back then.
Blah. Better sleep, have to be up in like... seven hours. Sad. Wish me no mean, old ladies.

I am small
I was being inspired for a while, with my writing. I wasn't writing Notches, so shame on me, but I was really enjoying what I was writing. It was just a continuation of this old Harry Potter roleplay that a friend of mine and I used to do. It's been four-five years since we worked on it, so I doubt she'll mind that I took over and wrote some of it.
It was amazing. I was writing something for absolutely no one else but myself. Not that writing Notches is for other people... but it kind of is, right? I expect someone to read it someday, it's pressure because I've taken on this project solo. There used to be two of us, it was so much fun when there was two of us. And now it's just me, and most days I'm perfectly fine with that.
I know what I want to happen. I have some spectacular ideas for the series. I can think about these scenarios for hours and not get bored... But give me a blank page on word and I'm stumped.
It's the beginning that is hard for me. I wrote a scene for season three one day, and it was amazing. I wrote many pages of a very rough draft of this really upsetting scene. But to sit down and write the pilot, and introduce the characters and make them interact together is just... well, it's hard.
I need someone to write this with me, but I don't really know anyone. Except the one person that it all started with, and since she's... well, I don't know what she is - I'm on my own.
In other words, I might be getting a promotion at Target. I've decided that the Fresh Market is probably not a good idea... seeing as how they apparently are only going to give me TWENTY hours a week. WTF Seriously? I can't live off of that. If I get this promotion, I'll be in charge of the photo lab. How cool is that?
Then I think about how stressful all of this is going to be. Working full-time, going to school full-time. When am I going to have a chance to breathe?
And most importantly, when am I going to stop being a lazy ass and write this fucking television series? These scenes are going to slip through my fingers if I don't write them out, y'know?
I just want to be great. Is that so much to ask for?

this is more like april fools
SO. Haley and I had a very Harry Potter day Friday. We watched Harry Potter, had dragon snot punch and cockroach clusters, talked about HP things, and we were on our way to see the new Harry Potter movie when something happen.
It's so humiliating but it's also extremely hilarious. We were driving down this country road, cornfields on either side of us and we saw this fog up ahead. This was a warm, dry night... it hadn't been raining at all, and the road was wet. There was this fog crap creeping up from the wet road and we slowed down. We started discussing how weird it looked and were wondering why the road looked like that....
WHEN THIS WATER JUST HIT THE WINDSHIELD. It scared the SHIT out of us. It was the perfect amount of time between us being confused and then RAWR WATER.
... There was a sprinkler watering the cornfields. Bahahahaha. We weren't really thinking clearly, we thought that it was dementors or I was thinking that we were disapperated into a river... we felt SO stupid.

EXPECTO PATRONUM.
Financial aid is taken care of. I'll be getting around a thousand dollars back as a refund, which is desperately needed for one of these damn bills. Still waiting to hear back from Fresh Market, spoke to them yesterday and they don't have the results from the background check. Damn, it's been over two weeks.
Having a Harry Potter marathon, occasionally talking to the tv and telling it that it left stuff out. I know, I know, they couldn't fit every detail in the movie. BUT COULD THEY REALLY NOT PUT IN WHO MOONY WORMTAIL PADFOOT AND PRONGS WERE? Really.
Watching Goblet of Fire. Cedric's about to die. :'(

we're bobbing along in our barrel
So I've finished rereading the first two Harry Potter books, and I've just rewatched the movies. And yelled at the tv a lot because they mess things up and it's annoying. I'm halfway through the third book, which is one of my favorites. Because... I love Sirius Black. He is my lover. He just isn't aware, because he's a fictional character and also 'cause, well... he's dead. :( BUT STILL. We are in love, and he's hot. Not Gary Oldman, but actually hot like a younger Trent Reznor.
Anyway, Harry Potter just brings out the fangirl in me. I started watching the third movie, but only watched until I was at the part where I haven't finished in the book. And I squealed because the difference of the appearance of the actors in the second to third movie is insane. Malfoy gets hot. Flitwick and Dumbledore get replaced. (I liked the original Dumbledore, I was really sad when he died.) And they decided that men in their thirties should look like they're fifty. (*cough Lupin Sirius cough*)
I finished my latest television adventure - Wonderfalls. It was an interesting tv show, definitely. My favorite part about it was the wax lion. Everything else that talked was okay, but the wax lion had some attitude. I wish I had him, I'd keep him on my shelf and show him off and be like, "this is my smooshed face wax lion and he tells me to do things"
I hate when I go into watching a show, knowing it only lasted one or two seasons, because I know I'm going to like it but I don't want to, because as soon as I start to like it... it'll be over.
Apparently I'm supposed to watch Smallville. If I had actual readers, I would ask for an opinion on the show. No one reads this, though. Yay.
Also, Torchwood: Miracle Day. A-mazing. The previews for the next episode look insane and awesome. I also can't help but cringe every time I think of the suicide bomber and him still being alive even though he's all charred up, and the most recent episode with the woman in the crushed car. Their lives suck.
It irritates me a little, and I hope it's explained later, but how is it that when JACK died before, he regenerated and was okay in a few hours. When everyone else dies, they just get all charred up and stay that way. Shouldn't they be healing if their roles were simply switched with Jack? Oh, and I have a lesbian crush on Gwen. Can't help it, she's much more bad assier this season.
I started watching Rizzoli and Isles, thinking that I was going to see some cute cop lesbian stuff, but it's most just subtext. Are they going to come out any time soon, or is this just going to be a running thing?
Catching up on Dexter before the new season starts - I love how Showtime replays the entire series before the new season starts up. I missed season five, so this is awesome. Also - the Big C? Definite love there. The first thing I saw of that show was the season one finale final scene, which completely broke my heart and I knew nothing about the characters. Laura Linney is kind of amazing.
Apparently I also need to check out Weeds. I might do this before I consider Smallville, seeing how Weeds is on Showtime and every showtime series that I've watched I've loved, I'll probably like it more. I heard that United States of Tara was canceled. Is that true? Because I haven't seen season three yet, but the first two seasons were AWESOME. Oh, and Nurse Jackie. I've seen the first two seasons of that, can't wait to watch the rest. LOVE Zoey.
Yep. Can't wait for this fall when all of the other shows come back on. Can't wait until January when SHAMELESS returns for it's second season. Hope it can live up to it's amazing first season (yes I'm aware of the BBC show, have seen a few episodes, prefer William H Macy, sorry).
Well, goodnight.
Wonderfalls theme song is stuck in my head.
