Almost Thanksgiving Break~! (and more college stuff)

Whee~ it’s almost thanksgiving break time and I’ll actually be back home for like a week before I have to go back to college. XD Not really sure if I’m gonna actually visit my old high school, though I do have teachers that I actually DO miss; Friends as well, since I don’t actually have all their cell numbers or whatnot. XP Might hang out with some of my friends back home, which if any of you guys see this, give my cell (if you have the number) a ring or even my house (preferred if it’s after Fri @ 3-ish or on Thurs @ 6-ish, depending if I have classes on Fri) and we can totally hang out. ^^ I miss all you guys, even though we’re all probably uber lazy bums about keeping in touch, but yeah~~ XP I might actually call people, but that’s only if I’m all uber motivated to...

I’ll admit that even though I don’t miss my hometown at all or my parents that much, it’ll be nice to go back. Of course, I know my parents are gonna complain to me (like my mom saying that I’m not eating as much as I used to or my parents telling me to sleep earlier); gah... their complaints... I REALLY~ don’t miss a bit. -___-; Speaking of weight, I don’t feel like I’ve lost weight, but I haven’t been eating as much lately (since I haven’t felt like it and now that I think about it, I’ve been eating less since the summer...), even though most of my pants (with the exception of a VERY~ few pairs of pants) don’t fit right -- as they’re too loose. Gah~, me need new pants. XP

And~ with sleep, I can never sleep right anymore. My sleeping patterns are all so~ uber fucked up, it’s not even a joke anymore. It’s been like this for at least two months, but it’s gotten really bad recently. I have yet have had to stay up to do an all-nighter, but I just can’t sleep, even when I’m done with my work. I remember staying up on Sunday night ‘til 3:30 playing video games, which is sad, since I didn’t think about reading to make me tired or that I normally don’t play video games late at night either... What is seriously~ wrong with me? Am I just thinking too much? Am I too stressed out? (I did have three tests on Halloween, but still... that stress shouldn’t be hitting me still...) I don’t even know anymore at this point... T.T

 So much to do when I get home, like buying new stuff [(yet again~), which will mostly be clothes probably, some stuff for my dorm room (which I don’t care what my parents say anymore...), Guitar Hero (which I still haven’t figured out which one, but meh... I’ll try to get I-III, but we’ll see...), and yeah…], studying for two tests/quizzes that I’m gonna have after break -- quiz in my music class and final in my psych lab. Fun, fun~ T.T Also need to finish that stupid paper for my music class as well... Damn. I really wished that I dropped that class... oh well.

It’ll be an interesting week to be home, especially since I also have a friend that I made up here (who I’m obviously really good friends with or else I wouldn’t even think about letting her stay at my house for a week). Kinda funny that she was supposed to come home with me, but the plans got a bit changed, as she’s going to visit her sister first from Wednesday to Sunday, so me and my folks will have to pick her up at the airport by then. Ah well, I don’t mind really, but I SERIOUSLY~~ miss my car and driving~! I WANT~ to drive again and I CAN’T wait! ^^

Last week I chose classes for next semester and as of this point, I’m gonna be takin’ Bio107 [Bio I], Anth106 [Intro to Anthro], Psyc135 [Psych II], and Math112Q [Calc I], which hopefully~ my brain won’t kill me, ESPECIALLY in Calc, as I hated~~~~ it in high school and I had so much trouble with it, which was a miracle that I even passes that class! T.T Too bad that I only got a 3 on the AP exam though, so I have~ to take it again here... Sigh, but ah well. ^^; I was going to take the faster Calc (Math115Q), but since I don’t like Calc in general and I had trouble in high school... I rather not risk it; I’ll deal with the 3 semesters of Calc... -___-;

Funny thing is that I actually was planning on taking Calc next year with one of my friends and I was going to take Stat110, but it conflicted with like everything~! XD So, I’m taking Calc instead.  I’m really glad that I actually did get everything that I wanted as I have friends who couldn’t get classes that they wanted because they had a later date than I did, so hopefully they can get the classes over Winter Break or during the add/drop period as people tend to drop classes a lot over Winter Break and Peoplesoft doesn’t lock again until February.

Too lazy to mention other crap ‘bout my life today, so probably will mention it in another entry.
Peace out. :P

College, among other things~ XD

Haven't posted in here in who KNOWS how long! XD Anywho~ it's been a few weeks since I started college and so far, every thing's been pretty good here. Of the classes that I'm taking (Sociology 107, Linguistics 125 [aka Linguistics 101], Psychology 132, and Music 190 [aka Non-Western Music], and one INTD class [it's like one of those freshmen classes...]), I have to say my least favorite class has to be Psychology 132 and I SERIOUSLY wanted to drop it, but the only reason that I'm not dropping it, is because all the more interesting Psyc classes have this one as the pre-requisite. T.T Meh... and go figure that it's also the most BORING Psyc class; even my academic adviser told me that. O.o; Go figure... -___-; Ah well, thanks to the summer college program, I don't have to take an English class, as I got that gen-ed out of the way and I can relax on the math until next semester. ^^

I personally am NOT fond of the dorm that I'm living in this year and it doesn't help that the room's all uber small too. XP My roommate and I get along pretty well; though she's moving out to live on the southern half on campus as it's more convenient for where her classes are and she's there really~ often. ^^; Of course, I wonder the same thing as most of my classes are in the southern half as well, but I'll deal with it as my classes aren't back to back anyway, 'cept for one day, but it doesn't make a difference to me. At least I know that she has nothing against me, so it's all good. Though... I have no idea if I'm getting a new roommate or I'm gonna be by myself for the rest of the year. I can already see the plus sides to being alone, but with a new roommate, if that happens.. dunno if I'll get along with them. -__-;; I usually get along fairly easily with people, but we'll see what happens...

I've met some new people and have made some new friends as well, which is pretty nice. It's kinda sad though that I really don't talk to anyone else on my floor, other than my roommate (she's the same way as me -- go figure), soon to be my ex-roomie. All of them seem to have their own cliques and it's just hard to try to know any of them. That sense... it's like high school all over. I've noticed it happen a lot, which sucks; doesn't help that I can be pretty shy. -___-;;;

I also joined a bunch of clubs as well: Asian American Student Association (AASA), Archery Club, Fencing Club, Hong Kong Student Association (HKSA), Japanese Animation Society (Anime Club) [that one HAD~~ to be obvious~! XD], and Taiko Drumming. There were some other ones, but I don't have time for them... XD I'm lovin' all of 'em so far and I'll hope I'll stay in them for the time that I'm gonna be here. At this point, it's only going to be two, as this college doesn't have my major, which is Forensics. In other words, I have to transfer to another college; this way, I save some money (as the one school that I applied to that had it was a private college -- virtually EVERY school that I looked up that had it was private or private and is also an all-girl's college). Sigh... this is of course if I don't change my major within the next two years. ^^;;;

To be honest... I really don't miss home all that much; unlike other people I know and such, my family and I aren't uber close, which works in my favor in this case. Honestly, besides my mom's cooking (I want some ACTUAL, AUTHENTIC Chinese food~! T.T), my friends back home, my video games (didn't have room to bring those or my PS2 up here), and my bed (Oh. Did I mention that until now... I've NEVER slept on a bunk bed? [technically, it's more like the beds are lofted] Even over the summer, I wasn't on one.. and I officially hate it.). Well, you can't like everything... so.. I've had to just deal with it. XP I'm adjusting to that bed, but I still don't like it. ^^;

Until my next entry 'bout college... XD

---------------------------------------------------------

Wow... that was pretty long... ^^; If you don't care about my life, the parts below might be of interest, perhaps...:

- I'm working on both my icon challenges (Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch [general series] and Len Tsukimori x Kahoko Hino [La Corda D'Oro]), though... my Code Geass one's my priority, since I'm sooo~~ behind on it. XP I slack off waa~y too much. Hopefully, I can get the Code Geass ones up sometime before the end of the month Also with icons, I'm also making some extra icons on the side for practice and those will be like an icon batch as well, once I make enough (I have like 5 done).

- I KNOW Crescendo (La Corda D'Oro fansite) needs to be updated, so please STOP reminding me about it. As WELL as asking for me to re-upload the frickin' downloads. I said I was re-uploading them, and I wasn't lying about it; I've just been busy with other things. I plan on uploading the next layout with the update, among the other tad-bits that I have worked on. [Geez, people who have visited Comedy Is Love (Lovely Complex fansite) haven't been complaining... probably since I haven't uploaded the episodes yet. XP] I swear those people have really no respect when people do that, especially after I said not to ask me about those. -___-;;

- Hm, I'm considering on moving Aternal Abyss, so it's actually the main page for my mini sub-domain on baka-saru[dot]net, but I dunno if I feel like making a new layout, let alone re-coding it. I've made way~ too many layouts within the past two or so weeks; all for FLs too. T.T

Not much else to say, so toodles for now~!
