it's (not yet) 12:01 am on wednesday may 18...
do you know where you'll be? for most, you'll be snuggled in bed, or at least snuggled at the computer for some of you night people. maybe you'll be cramming for a test the next morning.
or maybe, like me, you'll eb at the 12:01 midnight showing of starwars: revenege of the sith. :-D
woe is me, who hath succumeed to my destiny to be a nerdy starwars fan who has to see the midnight showing, opening day. i'll tell you all if it's worth seeing. as i figure, it could be the best of the first three, or the worst. seeing as how lucas actualyl stepped up and made this one pg-13 (all the rest of the starwars are pg, although technically speaking, back in 1977 when starwars first came out, there was no pg-13, just pg then R; so standards were higher...) it could possible be leaning toward the best, rather then the worst. i'm tyring not to expect too much, since i'm paying ten bucks to see it. (although, there we some die heard fans that spent $1000 upwards to see it on the 12th of this month)
well, i have a final tomorrow, which i'm half-temped not to even study for. i need a 55 out of 100 to get an 90.125 in the class, so i'm not going to worry all that much. but, since it's oepn book, i'll at least give myself an hour to cram. my arabic exam, on the other hand, i'll have to study for. i think if i don't get an A on the final, i don't get an A in class. i'll be pissed, because the reason i'm getting a B is because the prof. for the first half of the semester didn't really teach us anything. i learned more in the first week that the new prof was there then i did with the previous 6 weeks with teh other prof. conseuqently, on quiz two, she asked us to translate something, and i didn't bother. i was furious; we were barely able to properly recognize and pronounce the LETTERS and she was asking us to translate words? and i didn't own a dictionary (arabic dictionaries are weird, 1) the run around 30 + for a nice one and 2) you have to know the root of the word to know where to find it. so, in essence, we wouldn't have been able to use one anyway)
well, it gets better. turns out, she figured it was unfair to require us to be able ot translate that, so we were off the hook. sorta. she gave you points for effort instead. and sicne i was like "i don't even know which letter is WHICH YET" frame of mind, i got a 60 out of 100 on that quiz. we only had three quizzes the entire semester. great huh?
saw my hammies last night. sigh. i want to live with them, but the whole 'move in with my brother' thing, seems distant now because of his situation. he might be going off to california, in which case, he'd pay me to live at his house, check the mail, etc. pay bills. i'd get his car too. but then, whether it was the sam adams cherry wheat he's been so recently fond of, or utter 'i'm-jobless' ness, he suggested i come with him. to california.
so i don't know anymore. after wasting 50 bucks on my application, (which they recieved, i just don't know if i was accepted) plus i'd have to quit my job at the (good ole) pizza joint and find a job out there. plus there's the GETTING OUT THERE part. but, it would put me ina good position for script writing. i hear it's easier to get or MSs in if you live in new york or california.
i dunno. my life is changing big time. guess i'd better shut up or else no one will read this. i have to go to work anyway.
