Wow... I had my first class today, and although it was a slow one, I'm going to have a *shitload* of work to do this semester. I already have to read a ton for Wednesday, and do a short paper. It's gonna be a lot of work... at least (so far) the work is interesting.
your entry reminded me of the "shit load" of work awaiting me in September. good luck with your class. I'm glad that at least it IS interesting. There's nothing worse than a huge BORING workload. Have fun, and thanks for the sweet comment on my set!
In less than eight hours I have my first orientation session at school. Orientation lasts a full week (a mix of technical, procedural and social sessions). Then, it's straight into classes. Yipes!
My new roommate broke Pickles' cage but she survived. I put her in a new BIG glass vase and she's happier than ever. The other three spiders are happy I'm home - I fed them crickets as soon as I got here.
I have to go away... it's a good thing. I sold my old laptop, and they are coming to pick it up tomorrow... but the new one won't be here until next week.
Well, the Dems are doing a pretty good job so far.... Ted Kennedy was a dud, but what do you expect. Howard Dean was too toned down to be very effective, but eh...
It was nice to see Regan at the Democratic National Convention... and his speech was decent.
I was also impressed with Terrsa Heinz Kerry... I love that woman. She's intelligent, outspoken. Opinionated?... Read More
It's Democratic Convention time... so far, nothing special... Al Gore was just dull, as usual.
Jimmy Cater was pretty cool... he got in some great digs at Bush.
Right now Hillary is introducing Bill... wow... they are going nuts for him! No wonder he's appearing on Monday, not Thursday... man, would he overshadow Kerry.... Sad.
I really wish they had a candidate I could vote... Read More
Awesome weekend... last night we have friends over, and we were just shooting the shit when all of a sudden, the skyline lit up with fireworks *from the tops of the buildings on the skyline*!!! It was *damn* cool. It turned out to be some even down at Millenium Park, which we got to view from the comfort of our own patio.
