My Typical Day
Currently Playing: Yellowcard - Miles Apart
So I haven't updated in quite some time. I don't think many people read this anyway, so it didn't seem like it was necessary (not that it ever really was...). Anyway, a big factor causing my non-updating has been the fact that I have just been really busy. Between working 30 hours a week and going to class and studying for class and sleeping in preparation for going to work and class and studying for class, I was left with very little time to do anything else. I would get home after 6:30 pm every day, and after eating and watching a little T.V. and the requisite sitting, I pretty much had to go shower and get ready for bed. Which is not good, because since I was taking O-chem, I really needed to study and stay caught up with the class. It didn't help that I had a midterm every week and a half and a nice final to look forward to after that. That means that after finishing my studying for one midterm, I would have to start studying for the next one right away. Of course, this did not happen. Who in their right minds would feel like studying right after a midterm?! I would take a few days off to rest, and before I knew it, the next midterm was rolling around. It got so bad that now when I see those football play diagrams with the shapes and arrows pointing from one shape to another shape, I think of electron pushing. Ugh. Well, at least it's over with. Now I don't have to deal with O-chem ever again. YAY!!!*
I have the next two weeks or so free from school and the stress that it undeniably brings. However, I still have to work, pretty much full time now, which means I have to stay in SD. This sucks because everyone has left except John, and even then we both have work, so...yea. Even Tiffany left...I miss you so much. This means that my day has become really routine. My typical day goes like this:
7:01 am - Wake up to my first alarm, snooze it.
7:05 am - Wake up to my phone alarm, turn that off.
7:11 am - Wake up to the snoozed alarm, turn that off, and finally get up.
7:12 am - I take one of my "Uncrustables" sandwiches to defrost (it takes about 30 minutes). Start to get ready.
7:22 am - Head to the bus stop.
7:31 am - Get on the bus.
7:43 am - Arrive on campus and eat my sandwich.
7:50 am - Go into work. Pull TRS (Textbook Reservation Service: we pack your books in a nice neat package for you) the rest of the day.
12:00 pm - Go eat lunch, usually Panda or Shogun.
5:00 pm - Get off work.
5:05 pm - Get on the bus.
5:18 pm - Get home and eat/sleep/watch T.V., do whatever.
9:00 pm - Talk to my Tiffany until whenever I start to feel sleepy, then shower and sleep.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
Yay for routine.
Hmm, let's see, what else has been happening...Let's make a list:
1) I entered two poker tournaments at Viejas Casino in the last month or so. The first one I did quite well in, finishing fifth and winning about $280 in the process. The second one was not so good, because we arrived there late, so I was a high alternate, and by the time I got to start playing, the blinds were already nearly a quarter of my total chips. I got eliminated rather quickly, but luckily I won my money back at three card poker. I got a straight, which is a 6:1 payoff (I think), but unluckily, the dealer got a three of a kind on the same hand, trumping my straight. Originally the dealer did not realize this and handed me $50 something, but then some manager guy came over and fixed it, and they asked me to give back $25, which sucks, because I could have just run away after I won and they would have never been able to get the money back. Boo-urns.
2) I had jury duty on September 7th. I had been summoned earlier in the summer, but I postponed it because I had summer school. I got there a little late, so I had to find parking quickly. I couldn't park in the metered spots, because I didn't know how long I would have to be in there. So I searched frantically (probably not a good idea given that the area near the courthouse is always swarming with police cars) for the cheapest and closest parking lot. I found one and parked, only to find that the rate for parking up to ten hours is a whopping $16!! Unfortunately, I had no choice but to park. So I go into the courthouse, and after listening to some judge talk for awhile, another guy came and told us that if we had any reason to leave, we should go talk to the people in the Jury Offices. Since I would have to take time off work, I didn't really want to serve on a jury, so I left to see if I could get it excused by saying I was a student or something. When I got there, the lady was confused, and then she asked me if I used to live at 3420 Lebon Dr., which was my old address. I said yes, and then she told me that they had tried to send me a second summons, but it was returned to them as undeliverable, so I had been excused from service. Damn them! I wasted many hours of sleep and $16 for parking for nothing! I was there for a grand total of 45 minutes...
3) I got a new phone! I now have Cingular, and one of those small Samsung flip phones. I like it because I can download my own customized wallpapers and ringtones. All I have to do is find a good "*.midi" file of the ring tone I want and send it to myself. Right now I am using "Go Go Naruto" as my ring tone, which is quite possibly the coolest thing ever. I also have the chocobo song from FFVII on there, but it's not quite as cool. I also got a new number, and for the select few that want to know it, you can ask me yourself.
I think that's enough.
Randomness: I just realized I turn 21 in less than a month. WTF?
*Oh yes, by "ever again", I really mean in two weeks, when I have to take O-chem Lab. Should be great times.
