Okay, at 8am, some asshole called my cell phone and woke me up.
In reality, it was the guy who will be coming to my room tomorrow at 2pm to fix my cable jack.
So hopefully, if this all works out, I won’t have to spend my college year in the computer lab, yay
I honestly don’t think the problem is anything else; I mean, my cable itself along with my network was working perfectly fine before, and my cable’s in good condition. So, if the jack can’t get fixed, i don’t know what to tell you all.
Anyway, I have to stop now, because Computer Info and Tech is over (it’s going to be a very easy A), and I have to run to my next class, Psychology. I’ll try to be on AIM tonight, so whoever wants to chat can chat with me then!
The women’s team got 5th place, and the guy’s team got 4th. Marcia again did an AMAZING job; she qualified for provisionals (nationals) in the 400m dash, and our 4×1 team did too if I recall correctly.
Personally, I did okay with the 200, but I did shitty in triple. Don’t even ask for details :shudders: I don’t want to go into that.
My 200 run… dash… anyway, it felt really good. I came out of my blocks really well, and in generally it felt like I did a god job.
I think I know why I have such a hard time making friends. Because I have no idea what to say around people without looking like an idiot. I take a while to think about what I’m going to say, and by the time I’m ready to say it, it would be out of context with the conversation. Nevertheless, I realized that if I want to be friend with someone, I end up not being their friend, and if there’s someone I didn’t really think about being friends with, I end up their friend. So maybe if I convince myself that I don’t have to be someone’s friend, I’ll be able to be a little less tense and self-conscious around them and eventually end up their friend.
Anyway, Friday, as of now, is the day. THE DAY. I really can’t wait. I’m sick of work. Of course, I’ll only have like, a 3 week break before guess what? I go back to school again! Well, at least it’s in Binghamton and not Ithaca. I was planning on going to IC… if it weren’t for the fact that summer class at IC cost at least twice as much as the classes at SUNY Binghamton.
But that’s about it for now. I have work to do… unfortunately. Till next time.
I just realized that my underarmour shirt, you know the one—that black spandex shirt—that I love so much, is missing! It’s not here in my room! I thought I had brou… no I know I brought it with me to college. I don’t remember if I packed it and brought it home with me over any of the breaks or not, so I don’t know where it is… it’s most certainly NOT HERE DX
Does anyone know how horrible that is!? It’s sooooo windy outside, and just when I need it the most, it’s not here :cries: I’m so worried for it. I hope it’s not gone forever. Me and that shirt went way back you see.
I have the hunch that it’s at home, and I really hope I’m right. I’ll be able to find out this weekend—keep your fingers crossed!
(... depending on when my last final is XD)
So I haven’t updated in a bit. And I figured I could give you a status update since I returned to IC about a week ago (Less than that actually… I came home Monday afternoon because I got sick, and feel the worst on Sunday).
Bleh, if I had a microphone, a working microphone, I’d do like, a podcast. :sigh: oh well. That reminds me, the broken headphones I had… I accidentally broke for good, but I got my headphones from home and brought them back with me after spring break.
Let’s see… Track practice this past week has been absolutely killer. I can’t really move my legs… well, that’s a lie. I can move my legs, but it’s hard as hell to do so, plus they feel like jello _’ Hopefully I’ll be able to recover BEFORE the meet next Saturday…
:runs to works: (4:30pm)
:returns from work: (8:50pm)
AAAAAAGGGGGHHH MY POOR FEET ‘N KNEES! THEY HURT!
Well, they don’t hurt that bad now that I’ve been sitting for a little bit. Anyways, let’s continue the update.
The highlight of my week came of Thursday when, in Wellness, I got to get hypnotized. It was an experience, and it will be a hard one to describe, but I’m gonna try it anyway.
So there were three of us up front. I happened to be the last person to get hypnotized, so I watched the other two get hypnotized in different ways. The first girl girl hypnotized by a swinging pendulum. The second girl got hypnotized by the guy’s finger. So he came over to me and he asked me “Are you good at math?” I told him, “Yea, sure.” So he asked me to count backwards from 103 by 7’s. So I started it, and it was a lil harder than usual, mainly because 103 isn’t divisible by 7, so I had to count down. I got down to… let’s see.. 87, and then there was a humming to my side (it was actually the guy talking to me). I couldn’t think… well I could, but it was like my thought processes were slowing down. Which would explain why I jumped from 87 to 69 before I felt him very VERY lightly push my head forward (his hand was resting at around the nape of my neck). And as soon as he began to push it, my eyes closed and I was like, stuck there. And it was weird, because I was conscious, but I wasn’t… like I was in a trance. The only thing I could hear was the hypnotist’s voice. Everything was a gentle hum. My body felt like all of my muscles had turned to mush, and I couldn’t move. I pondered to myself; I wonder if I can move my finger? I wonder if I can open my eyes? I tried to, to see what would happen, but I couldn’t move. My eyelids felt like heavy weights. So I settled for listening to what he had to say. Sadly, the only thing I can remember him saying is “You’ve done very well so far,” and something else about having a healthier immune system and how when I wake up, my mind will be clear and I’ll be alert before he snapped his fingers and my eyes abruptly opened. And, I did what he told me to do, because my mind felt very clear and I felt very aware. I really liked the experience though; I wanna get hypnotized again X3
So, other than the formal tomorrow (which I will tell you about on Sunday because it doesn’t end until around 1am or something like that), that’s all, so I’ll talk to you later.
I’ve been lame folks, sorry. It’s not that I haven’t had anything happen. It’s that I’m too lazy to tell you about it _ So, for the sake of letting everyone know that I’m doing okay, I’m going to update you on what’s been going on.
Let’s see, the first thing that happened, if I recall correctly, was the auditions for IC Unbound. Happily, I got into one of the dances; a hip hip piece, done to the “Here We Go” remix. It’s a lot of fun _ Our second rehearsal is tonight too. The performance is April something-or-other in the Emerson Suites and it costs $5 to get in. You should come
Super Tuesday happened next. I got to go home for a day, and I voted for the first time ever. If you didn’t guess from the video below this post, I voted for Obama. And why wouldn’t I? I see him as the best thing for our nation yet. He’ll take us far, and damn you if you don’t realize that
Of course, since me and my sister share a bedroom, and since when I came home, she happened to be sick, about a week later, I got sick too _ I feel much better though. I’m only congested and my throat’s sore. Thank god that my headache’s gone; that was miserable.
Backtracking a little… this past Sunday was the Empire 8 championship. And both IC Men’s and Women’s track teams KICKED ASS. We totally stomped everyone, included the team that hosted it in the first place. HAHA
:ahem: (wishes she could use the *) Anyway, a high point for me on that day was when I placed fourth in triple jump with my new record, 31’5”. I was very happy indeed. And hopefully my jumping’ll get even better so that I could qualify for ECAC, hell even NCAPP (I think…), and NCAA…. but I have the best chance of qualifying for the next level over states, ECAC. NCAA is NATIONALS, and the standards are amazingly high.
Hmmmmm… That’s all I can think of for now. I have to run and catch the bus and go to the mall, so until then folks
I just got back to college this afternoon. It was surprisingly hectic, but I should have known better.
Anyway, I arrived at around 2ish. I had unpacked by 2:30, and then I headed down to the computer lab (where I am now), because I just so happened to forget the power cord to my computer and therefore can’t use it…
So now it’s around 3pm, and I’m checking my email. I find out that I have max testing… at 3pm.
Haha… so much for taking an afternoon nap.
I did my max testing. Some things were better than others. My squats were better. I can squat 135 at 10 reps now instead of 5. And to think, the only kind of workout I did over break was the last week where I did The Firm more or less every day. My bench presses, on the other hand, got worse. I could only do 4 reps of 60, compared to my previous 5 reps of 65. I have a nagging feeling that my bent clavicle was the cause of it, and I wouldn’t be surprised id it’s condition got worse. It’s sorta very dully throbbing right now, for example.
So anyway, I did my max testing, and then I went and ate. I ate a much more wholesome meal compared to the last semester, when I was pretty much living off of cereal. And after that, I went back to the lab to check my mail, and after that, I went to track practice. Yay! Track practice! Bleh. The workout was… different. Luckily I’m not sore like I was before when I was first starting out. Thank you Firm! And after practice, I took a nice shower, and I ate some more food, stole an apple, and now here I am on the computer. I’m exhausted. I’ll be going to bed hopefully soon. I have to wake up tomorrow morning really early; around 7am. I’ve got a morning class at 8. Yuck. Well, with the good comes the bad. Of course I’d have to wake up early since I scheduled all of my classes to take place in the morning.
I’m quite exhausted now. So I think I’m done updating for the night. When I write in this next, I will be at my own computer instead of in this freezing lab. Until then!
(Oh, in case anyone was too retarded to get the meaning of this post’s title… 6 weeks and 4 days left until I come home for spring break)
I’m trying out a new theme, because the red was kind of old. Anyways, tell me what you all think. There’s only one thing that’s kinda pissing me off, and that’s my header/title. “All About G” is so tiny! Mom! How do I fix it and make it a freakin’ proper title? Plus I have pages that I used to have from my oldest form (lmao that sounds corny) that I want to edit and put up on this page, but it seems this theme won’t allow it. Plus it’s pissing me off because the stupid thing makes whatever’s in between my * bold, AND IT’S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE BOLD!! THOSE ARE FOR WHEN I EMOTES
(would scream but doesn’t have functioning * at the moment) Plus it’s doing something weird with my caps locks! Come on! God damnit! I’m just going to get a new theme
Grrrraaaaagh!
Anyway, I feel like crap… I’m not sick. I’m sad again. Today wasn’t what I would call a really good day. (would sigh but the * don’t work!) I haven’t gone back to college, so I have a feeling this semester is going to be SHITTY.
