Distorted Cube of My Nightmares
Yes, that's what I have to construct tonight. Out of posterboard. Could someone just put me out of my misery now? Because if you don't I'll just perish from loss of blood at about 3 am after I've accidentally cut all my fingers off with the Xacto knife.

Of Course
Of course he has a girlfriend! He's intelligent, kind, funny, and attractive and therefore is already taken. Well shoot.

Falling Short
I've been doing something constantly since 7:30 this morning. And I was already dead tired when I woke up. Didn't have my homework done for my 8:30 class but that turned out not mattering. Spent my 2 hour "lunch" period doing the assignment for my afternoon class but wasn't able to finish it. Jan (my teacher) has given us a horrendous assignment that's due next Tuesday. We need to construct a plastically distorted cube that has the same volume as the regular cube. Out of bristol board. I'm willing to estimate at least 8 hours of work on this one. Anyway, went to my evening lecture and fell asleep. Then went to IVCF Large Group only to discover that I have lost the adapter that hooks my laptop up to the projector. Oh, by the way, I never really finished the PowerPoint in the first place. Basically I'm a big screw up. I have successfully fallen short of every single expectation set for me today. Congratulations.

Close Up
For some reason I take a lot of pictures of myself. This is one of them. I think I'm the only thing that I'm not too embarassed to ask to take its picture.
4:15 AM
4:15 am fire alarm. Everyone runs outside in whatever was lying on their floor, looking confused. Why are they always around 4:15? First thing I did was turn my alarm off but since I was in a groggy semi-concious state I didn't turn it back on. Then I opened my door, all the while noting that my key was inside the room, and proceeded to leave. One of those moments when you shut the door and then stare at it knowing that you've just locked yourself out. So too bad for my 8:30 class because I'm taking the morning off.

Pic of the Day
I think I'm going to post a picture everyday. This way I'll force myself to take pictures. Sometimes you need to trick yourself into making things. Today's picture is of my fish, Nutella. He replaced Ferrero Rocher after a series of unfortunate incidents. Isn't he shiny?

I Just Don't Get it
The art school is having us learn Adobe GoLive CS in order to make web pages. Meanwhile, we also have Macromedia Dreamweaver MX. I thought Dreamweaver was the industry standard. Are they having us learn GoLive because it means we don't have to learn HTML? If that's the case then I'm pissed. I'm not here to learn point-and-click programs! GoLive can GoHell.
On Being Proactive
I can't believe it took me until age 19 to figure out that starting papers a couple days before they're due makes them way less stressful.

The First One
Hmm... well I've never had a blog before. I suppose I shouldn't really be starting one right now. There's something about writing a paper for class though that makes you want to do something completely different. So here I am. It's been snowing all morning and I've just been sitting in my bed with my laptop. So far it seems like a pretty damn good day.
