I shot President Reagan and I'm going to do it again and again and again!
Here's what is left before break:
Finish HW7.
Critique All My Sons.
Perform collaborate project.
Study CSE, Chem, and Philosophy.
I was in a good mood until I opened a bottle of Dr. Pepper at the beginning of my CSE class and it sprayed all over my shorts. That didn't bother me too much, but when I came back from class I got an e-mail from my CSE grader stating that my score on HW6 was zero because it didn't compile. I immediately thought there was a mistake because of the fact that my HW6 did and does compile. If what I turned in didn't compile, it would have told me so when I ran turnin. I e-mailed my grader and I'm eager for a response.

Thanksgiving 2004
So I don't forget...here's an abbreviation:
Mia picked me up yesterday around one and we started our drive to the grandparents' house. It took four and a half hours to travel 100 miles because of holiday traffic. Once we got there, Alia led the role in serving our day before Thanksgiving dinner. After that, Alia, Scott, Mia and I drove to Blockbuster to return movies and then to Ralphs to shop for foods. Back at the house, the aerobed was set up in the living room. Grandpa took some pictures of Scott laying on it, and Alia took some as well. I then took a few pictures of Grandpa and Alia taking pictures of Scott. Alia then took some pictures of me showing Mia the pictures I took of Grandpa and Alia taking pictures of Scott...and so forth. After a couple hours of 13-channel TV, I went to sleep. Actually I listened to music via iClick for about an hour in while laying in bed in complete darkness. It was interesting. I slept in until 10:40, showered, and then we ate lunch. Sara, our cousin who I had not seen for many years, and her boyfriend, Doug, arrived and joined our lunching. We all talked for an hour or so and then Sara showed us a video of an episode of "How do I look?" (a "reality" make-over show on the Style network) with Doug being the fashion victim and Sara being the concerned girlfriend. It was hilarious! It needs to be seen to appreciate that so I won't try to describe it. Eventually everyone was packed up and left in different directions. Mia and I planned to fly a kite at the beach here but it was dark when we got back (fortunately there was not traffic). Instead we watched Adaptation, and after that she left to go back to a friend's house. I then followed Mia's advice and joined Brian at a neighbor's apartment where we ate what I would call an Asian Thanksgiving dinner. Afterward, we took everyone back to our apartment and watched Big Fish. That pretty much abbreviates the past 36 hours. Now for a few out of context quotes:
"Take a picture of me in my underwear" -Grandpa
"Maybe she just wanted a bowl of gravy" - Scott
"Stop losing weight" - Grandpa again
"Her face looks like leather!" - Sara

"What if I went into your mother's purse? Slightly different."
This program is due on Monday. This essay is due on Monday.
I mentioned that I intended on enrolling in CHEM140B, PHYS2B, CSE21 and BICD100 next quarter. BICD100 was full, but I enrolled in the other courses. I was going to take MATH20F, but then decided to complete the art-making GE with an art-related class. That would be poetry. I'll annihilate that class with creativity.

ASND
There are no more OChem midterms this quarter. I was writing a critique, but I kept getting distracted so I ran. I'm still getting distracted. I'm somewhat concerned about the work I need to do leading up to next Monday. I can't think ahead of next Monday. No more distractions starting now.

I am now stressed.
I would go running if it weren't dark. I will go to sleep and wake up when it is not so dark.

I was wrong. Everything will collide continuously for the next two weeks.
Tomorrow is a mid-end-week-holi-d-ay-. I have numerous things to do in a relatively short period of time. LET'S FIGURE THIS OUT!
1) Finish this program by midnight
2) Finish next program before next week
3) Meet with Brenden to plan out the scene
4) Practice the scene and make it spectacular
5) Write a critique on A Streetcar Named Desire
6) Write a philosophy essay
7) Study for OChem midterm

Everything will collide the Monday after next
I applied to be a Tutor/Reader (meaning Tutor/Grader) for computer science next quarter. I am not expecting to get the job because I wanted to tutor a class that I haven't even finished yet. They have no idea whether or not I know the material. On the other hand, I JUST took the course, so wouldn't I have stronger command of it than people who took it years ago? It will all boil down to whether or not they need more tutors, which I know that they don't. So I won't get the job. This means I should get a research project started for Winter quarter and beyond. That just sounds like a good idea. It would give me an excuse to drop one of my classes that I am planning to take next quarter. These are: CHEM140B, PHYS2B, CSE21, and BICD100. All science courses in different departments. The only truly intimidating one is CSE21, since I got the prequisite for it waived as a result of Bioinformatics. That means that I am allowed to take that class even though I'm going to be completely lost and I will invariably fail miserably.

I started reading Kant's Groundwork of the Metaphysic of Morals, which I have read before, and after the preface I fell asleep for three hours.

I am going to do OChem problems today
I had a dream where there was a secret organization on campus that allowed any member to borrow any type of gun, with ammo, for free. All you had to do to join this organization was find it and give them your e-mail or something. So I joined and eventually borrowed an assault rifle, just to see if they would actually give it to me...and they did. I thought that was fucked up and after a day I gave it back...because I didn't want to get arrested. This dream has everything to do with the fact that Brian and Drew went shooting yesterday. Brian had a dream where, at one point, he was in a restaurant and ordered a baby steak.
I have tried several flavors of oatmeal, but apple cinnamon might still be the best. It doesn't really make a difference though, because I mix the flavored packet of oatmeal with a large amount of unflavored oatmeal.
Make up your mind, rain.

They ship AAA batteries in unnecessarily large boxes
My dreams are so weird.
It is nice to wake up at 10am, having slept for 13 hours.
Today has been slow. I did much needed OChem reading, and now I should do OChem problems, but I think I'll clean my room.
I will eventually upload more pictures to my photo gallery. I will eventually take more pictures to upload to my photo gallery. I will eventually clean my room. I will clean my room right now.

Don't fall asleep!

Excuse me, Professor. Could you repeat what you said? I fell asleep.
Do the children of people with blogs read their parents blogs? That would be weird.
Blogger has not recognized daylight savings time? I don't understand how that can be. The date and time that it displays is identical to the date and time on my computer. But it is an hour ahead. If they're the same, how can they be different?
I don't know why I got out of bed at 7:30 this morning. I fell asleep at around 3:40 after several hours of messing around with UT2004 and Little Snitch to attempt to play a network game without being booted by the Master Server. Someone tell me how to do that.
Now I'm tired. I had another thought...something about...something.

If I could find some way to remember my dreams...some sort of...web...log
I was thinking earlier today that it might be nice to make an original template for this blog. I've used this template long enough to have completely forgotten where I got it from. It's a robot.
But that is not likely to happen. I am too busy now.
The plan was originally to run around the campus loop for 30 days in a row and buy myself an iPod as a reward upon completion. At first I thought this wasn't plausible, meaning I would run but never have to buy an iPod, which would be ideal. After completing three days of it though, I realized that I could actually do it for an entire month. Because of this, the accomplishment could not justify the purchase of an iPod. Thus, I had to change the reward to a cheap, small mp3 player. And buy it now.

Nicholas Gurewitch is a genius
You know the thing that connects your lower lip to your gums? I cut mine somehow. It hurts bad. People who get that pierced are masochists.
Science > Humanities because of this: science majors can take humanities classes and annihilate them because they are total bullshit. Humanities majors can't do this for science classes. So what I really mean is that humanities classes are easier than science classes.
FUCK!

Violation of rights
I can't vote because the Registrar of Voters Office in San Jose never sent me the absentee ballot that I applied for. That's so fucked up.
