Advice of the Day

Don't get too involved with anything. When you get involved, you create expectations and when you have expectations all you get is dissapointment. So don't bother putting in all that effort to begin with only to have everyone at the end kick you when you're down.

Lacrosse

Nothing spectactular happened in life today, but I just felt like posting, haven't in a while, and I really don't want to do homework LoL. Spring semister sucks like that, I've used up all my work ethic during the fall semister, oops. Biology, we're finally moving up in the organizational life chain, to actual organisms and not just cells.

I have to check if I have to go jury duty on tuesday, it's almost exactly one year since they last called me in, I hope I don't have to go in this time, then I'll have to miss class and ugh. On the upside I do get to go to a hockey game that night :D WHOO!

Saturday night I went to my first Lacrosse game. LoL It was the men's professional lacrosse team, the San Jose stealth. Like a ninja, waaaah. So it was pretty fun, the general idea is get the ball into the net, which may sound easy but when you've got a goalie the size of the net...not so easy. LoL

I want to be a lacrosse goalie for Halloween. :D

It was a fun game to watch even though I still have no idea how the hell it's played. Guys are running on and off the field all the time and whistles, buzzers and horns are going off too, it's MADNESS! On the field guys are whacking each other with their sticks and shoving around. Plus they're running in shorts, I don't think I've ever seen a sporting event with guys running around in shorts LoL some of them have really skinny legs, like chicken legs...I'd trade 'em for my tree stump legs.. LoL they have 4 quarters and some really lame dancers the "spy girls" :( I guess I was never a fan of cheerleaders...We lost 11-10, bummer, but we had really good seats :) If free tickets come around again I'd go :)

School is alright, it's only been two weeks though, my art history instructor is very wordy which can get annoying cause she'll spend 3 minutes saying something that should only take 30 seconds, but she's seems pretty cool and everyone has said pretty good things about her. Bio...I'm not sure, I've heard of her fury, but she has yet to unleash it on us...she is very...stern? I'm not sure if that's the best way to describe her, but she's not someone that really jokes around much.
Chem is alright, same instructor and my other friend from physics is in there so yay :) I found out Nick is in the other section which is intersting, I suppose I may get infrequent updates from my other friend who's in that section too. Next time I pass him maybe I'll get more than a "hi" in LoL
I guess I should try to get back to school work...for just an hour :)

"First Day of My Life"

...That's all I want, just to say to someone, "I'm glad I didn't die before I met you..." It's all I'm asking for... :)

Cleaning.

I don't clean very often...but when I do it's some pretty heavy duty cleaning. So far I have a huge bag of about 20 lbs. worth of stuff to recycle, lots of old school work, old stuff and what not. And I have about 15lbs of trash stuff misc. stuff that can't be recycled.

It's been a few years since I've done a clean through and what I've found is that I like to keep stuff, random crap just in case, mostly stuff with dates on it and stuff that I think I'll want in the future for memories. But after having a few years without looking at it or touching it or missing it, I find I can live without it and chuck it. Which is good, it feels good to clear out some of the clutter. I think there might actually be room to sit down in my room now. I got rid of a lot of pictures random crap that I thought I should keep around, but really it's doing no one any good.

I gave a bunch of stuff to my sister for her "class store" thing, an incentive program when she has her own class. A good way to get rid of old crap that you're not going to use any more, small erasers, stickers etc. LoL herm, out with the old, in with the new yeah? :)

It's still madness in here though, sorta like when you dust at first all the dust flys up everywhere and it seems dustier than when you started but as it settles and gets wiped off everything ends up cleaner. Things havnen't quite settled yet, but I've got a lot of excessive clutter out :)

(Along with the cathartic feeling I've gotten from cleaning, I've also found $20 in an old pair of jeans, $30 in a birthday card [but I also owed $30 to my sister for our parent's gift LoL], $27 from an old target gift card and an aeropostale gift card :D WHOO!)
Break over, Back to cleaning up.
