Ravings of a Semi-Madman

Not, of course, to discredit what I say. I speak the truth, because the truth is the only thing worth speaking.

what should I say

I don't know. I really don't have anything to say today. I started my history paper yesterday. I'm going to try to get at least 3 pages done on this shift, and then start taking notes on my other book for Human Relations. When I'm not doing that, I intend to research for my Social Psych paper. This weekend, when I'm not doing something with Megan, will be devoted to studying for Learning and Cognition, and US History. History is going to be a monster, as I've mentioned before. Did I mention that I have a Theatre test next week as well? I think I did. SO, I'm going to make another list, this time of things that I have to do today:

Go to the post office
Turn in the money for the honor society (I don't remember where I turn it in, though)
Go to Walmart to get drinks and granola bars.
Get 3 pages done on the History paper
Get half of the HR book done
Do all of the research for Social Psych

Man, that's a lot of work...so, I'd better get to it.

gonna die...

Yes, I believe that the stress of college will finally kill me. Here's what I have to do by next thursday:

Learning and Cognition test on Friday

US History test (25 possible essays, only 3 will be on the test) on Monday

Human Relations book report on 350-page book on Tuesday (haven't started the book)

US History "critical book review" (6 pages min.) due next Wednesday (haven't finished the book)

Social Psychology paper (5 pages min.) due next Friday, but I have to turn it in Thursday because I won't be there on Friday.

That is not including whatever it is that I have to do for Intro to Theatre. By the way, that list was primarily for my benefit, as I'm sure that you do not care about the cause of my imminent death.

Yes, I'm at work again, trying to pass the last 10 minutes before I start shutting everything down. Something happened last night that I'm not free to talk about here, but I did discuss it with Megan this morning, and we came to an agreement. I'm going home with her this weekend, but hopefully, I'll have time to get a copious amount of work done on Saturday. I also have to buy a tie and pants for that wedding...well, I guess I'll get started shutting stuff down.

no title today

Because I can't think of one. Another dull night at work. Oh, what to do for the next two and a half hours? I'm probably going to go crazy with boredom. I wish I could take a nap...that would be nice. Just close up early, and go back and sleep for a while. Or perhaps I could sleep on one of the couches in the hallway...I'll just have to put up a sign for people to wake me up if they want into the lab. *sigh* that would be so nice. Perhaps I'll "accidentally" fall asleep in my chair. My neck will no doubt be sore afterwards, but I think it will be worth it.

On to more important things. Megan's gift needs to be acquired tonight. I won't say what it is, because she might read this. So, I'll probably do that after I'm done with this post. We're going to record those songs tomorrow afternoon. We'd better be done by 6pm, or it will interfere with my plans with Megan. It is Valentine's Day, after all. I wonder what she has planned? I mean, I know that I'm going over to her room and we're going to watch Return of the Jedi, but other than that? Speaking of money, I forgot to turn in my time cards last week...I hope that they will take them tomorrow, because otherwise, I won't get a paycheck till the end of March...that would suck, even though it would be huge. I could use some money now.

*yawn* I can't stop...

I'm lazy

I don't feel like studying for Social Psych right now, so I'll just do it later tonight. Megan wasn't much help to me last night when I told her what I was depressed about. She just told me I shouldn't be depressed about it. I asked her why, and she said I just shouldn't. *insert sarcastic tone* I feel so much better now.

On a more interesting note, since no one cares about me being depressed, the choir is going to record three songs for a production company tomorrow. They're all Rene Clausen pieces, if you've ever heard of him. The purpose of the recording is, they're newly written pieces, and the recordings will be distributed to different choral directors so that they can listen to them and decide if they want to do one of those pieces with their choir.

*sigh* I wish I didn't have to work tonight. I'm thinking about dropping my voice lessons so that it will be easier to do my theatre lab work, since Tuesdays are the only days I can do it. The only thing good about today is that we're playing D&D again at Matt's tonight after I get off work. Well, time to close up the 217 lab...

*sigh*

I feel horrible. Very depressed. I could almost cut. Why, of course, is the question, but this time, I know the answer. I saw a video on ebaumsworld.com today of a girl getting beat up, and all the guys were standing around cheering on the girl that was hitting her. She was down on the ground, holding her head, and the other girl kept kicking her in the ribs and stomach before finally walking off. No one stopped to help the girl that got hurt. It disturbs me so much that I'm writing a "fan fiction" of sorts...though, that's not really an appropriate term...basically, I'm writing what I would do had I been there. I do admit it involves taking my tactical baton to the head of that girl that was beating up the other girl. It just makes me sick to watch that. I wish I could have been there, even if I had been too late to stop it, just to be the only one that would make sure that the girl was okay, and if she wasn't, take her to the hospital and stay with her until I knew that she would be okay.

*sigh* people are truly sick creatures...f*cking mob mentality...they deserve to be shot in the thigh and allowed to bleed to death...

another day at work

yes, here I am. What shall I do with my time here? well, I'm going to have to interrupt this post, since the last person is leaving, there are a couple of things I have to do elsewhere in the building...be right back...

Ok...so I can't do what I had to do, because there are classes in all the classrooms I have to go in. I'll just have to do it in the morning. SO, how has my life been, you ask? Decent enough. This weekend was the Choir retreat, aka, 10 hours of rehearsal. Drew and Mike came over to watch the Super Bowl with me on Sunday. *sigh*...we were Bears fans. But I did love that Dorito's commercial..."Cleanup on Register 6", lol. That was just wrong. Megan came over last night, as usual, and we watched half of "Gone with the Wind". Then we got into another argument about the Civil War. Not going to get into that...let me just say that she's a Rebel, and I'm a Yankee...at least, in regards to the war. Given a modern context, and I would much rather live in the South.

*sigh*...my PS2 isn't really working anymore. I'm surprised it played the movie last night. I may ask for an XBox 360 for my birthday...PS3 is just way too expensive, and Wii doesn't play DVD's. Can't wait for the end of this month...I'll get my next pay check, which should be fairly sizeable, unlike the one I picked up today, which was only $40. The next one should be at least $200. I could use the money.

What should I do for the next hour and forty-five minutes? Read for that book report that's due next Tuesday? Or write? Or read for leisure? I don't know...I wish I could just close up early, even though I wouldn't have anything to do in my room, either, since my PS2 doesn't work.
