Another 19 out of 20 on my electrical test. Seems I'm sorta stuck on that number. It should have been 18, but one of the questions on the test wasn't right, so the instructor kicked us all that point.
Now, I answered that question wrong regardless...but I wasn't about to argue with a free point!
Turns out I actually enjoy electrical work. I only wish...

Inspirational Calendar Quote:
"We can decide to be happy, to give joy before waiting to receive it. This is not denial, but affirmation of the power inside us. Embracing joy heals depression."
Seems that in the past week or so there have been a lot of us down in the dumps.
I know that the election sparked some depression in many. And even if that...

The post-election depression is lifting for me. Honestly, what are we going to do, sit around and cry for the next four years? It's just another reason to fight harder and not give up the principles that made us dislike Bush in the first place.
Life goes on, something I'm glad to see you've remembered.

Oooo! Well, in that case, just let me know if Biker Boy screws up and pisses you off. I can make it there in two hours. You realize I've got a bike too, right? 
You're dead right. I've started to get over the election and I'm getting over my depression as I do. Besides, the world my be a rotton place, but I've got roller derby to look forward to this Sunday!

So far, so good.
Week one electrical down...what a relief.
Took a nap after school and waited for the biker to call me so we could hang out. We'd originally planned to go work on his truck but he was too tired so we just went out for drinks instead.
I gotta tell 'ya...these Texas boys are adorable.
He drove his ass all the way...

I am overwhelmingly happy and relieved to report that I got 19 out of 20 on my first electrical test.
Maybe you're thinking, of course you did, you always do!
But for real, folks...I thought I was a gonner.
I definitely must review some of the things from that chapter before I try to move on. But 19 is a FAR better result than I...

I really don't have anything to say.
I am so depressed about the election results and so honestly scared to the bone.
I held myself together during school hours pretty well.
But I admit, I came home and actually sat here for a minute or two and cried.
I'm so upset I don't even feel like telling you how I gave those stupid little redneck...

I know it's hard, but don't give up. Things can get better.
Regarding the Election:
The only thing that annoys me more than people who support Bush are people who don't vote at all.
I have some seriously intelligent friends who simply...don't vote.
They give me excuses like, I don't like either of the candidates. And, I don't know enough about where they stand. And they simply...don't vote.
Rather than put their two cents in regarding the...

List of things to do:
Friday:
1. Ignore need for nap and instead give Mr. Cajun's annoying roommate a ride to a local store to fill out a computerized job application.
2. Discover that the newly rotated and balanced tires are indeed NOT balanced correctly.
3. Do NOT kick said roommates ass when he says that I 'complain about everything' when I told him how...

Today I finished off another course at school.
I can honsetly say that I'm sad to see it go.
For two reasons:
1. I liked it.
2. My next class is electrical...yikes!
A couple of buddies came over last night and we studied.
I had this horrible feeling that I'd gotten all the questions on the former tests right purely by luck...and that despite all...

That rocks - you were right, the test was wrong. Nerd!
Too bad you can't be here and celebrate the electoral antics with the rest of us drunkards. But I hope you manage to have a good time where you are. Texas could be a very sad place tomorrow... (hopefully)

Low point of my day:
Discussing with Mr. Cajun the state of one of my tires. The one where someone hit me and dented my rim and now my tire has a dent in it too. Thinking that I'm going to have to replace the tire...something I really don't have the money for right now.
Endearing point of my day:

Ah yeah it was something about thanking you for any help you can send my direction, like I said I am afraid I am opening a can of worms here and I just want to be sure that I do everything right. So I could use all the help I can get! 
One of my favorite things to do at school is embarass the little boys.
It's a daily event.
Guaranteed at some point, one of them will say something about sex. Not that they know anything about what they're talking about...being all of maybe 18 years old or so.
But they say it like they're tough or offensive or something.
This is when I jump in...dirty...

My weekend started with a bang.
No, I mean literally...my car got herself a flat tire.
Luckily, Mr. Cajun was able to finagle us the school's tools and air hose and we were able to fill it up so we could make it home. And before you ask, yes, I have a spare in my trunk, but it was flatter than the tire on the...

I know you lead a super busy lifestyle and wouldn't be likely to get up to Austin very often, but if you ever do, you should go see the girl roller derby! I just went last Sunday and was so impressed by the girls in little school girl outfits brawling on skates that I even started a group for it.

Yeah, I know what you mean about being a good person rather than measuring yourself by your actions. But I think there's a line to be drawn somewhere - even with the best of intentions, without real accomplishments they don't add up to much. I don't know, it's a complicated subject.
this semester is almost over with for us & i cant wait for it to end cuz i don't have a math class next semester
