Rain

There is nothing I love more than the sound of rain. Right now it is POURING outside, pouring as in "NOAH! YOU BETTER START UP ON THAT ARK!" type of rain. and I love it, there are these huge massive drops comming down. and there is no other sound like that in the world. I love the rain :) It's very conducive to doing your work. LoL :)

Anonymous Day thwarted

Ever have one of those days where you just want to be anonymous. Where you can just look and act as miserable as you feel without having anyone go "aw are you okay?" and having to put on a fake smile? Anyways, today was one of those days for me, I just wanted to a miserable loner by myself. Yet the universe saw fit that that did not happen. Today I happened to see like everyone I have ever met at chabot. ...When you see people you haven't seen in a while you can't just sneer at them or give them that blank look, it makes them think you don't like them... So you have to smile and wave.

Gah, so I just wanted to eat lunch in silence, but the cafeteria was packed because the local audubon society was there taking up a bunch of tables, so I went upstairs, and on the way up I saw one of my classmates from physics last term, who I had to smile and wave to. When I got upstairs I found 4 of my classmates, at a table studying...maybe it was rude, but I waved and then went to go sit down at a small table by myself, I really didn't want to talk to too many people, but one of my friends came over and was like "hiiiiii yaddah...." and then my old lab partner stopped to talk for a little bit too. I waved and then got out of there after eating lunch. I didn't want to go to the library where it was loud, so I went to the downstairs computer lab where I saw another one of my old chem classmates, who I had to wave and smile, and then I got in the computer lab which was more packed than i've ever seen it and so one of the only computers left was one by people in my physics class. They were doing some OChem thing of theirs so I didn't really have to talk much with them...but then I totally gave into the fact that I wasn't supposed to have a miserable anti-social day when I left the computer to study at this table and someone in my chem class sat at the table across from me. Someone I haven't talked to since like the 9th grade chatted about the lack of studying for this upcoming quiz, I was flipping through my notes and such, and then he comes over for help. Of course I have to help him, and I've just given in to the fact that today I wasn't supposed to be miserable. :)

Funk

Not the type you dance to, not the weird smell when you drive by Davis St. ...just the kind you get stuck in. I think I'm in a bit of a funk. I have a feeling I'll be here just a little bit longer. But who knows, tomorrow everything could change, or not.

Edited to add: Don't believe anyone in your family when they say they can keep a secret/won't tell anyone. It's a fuckin' lie.

people's lies.

"Here is our vegetarian burger" (it's made of 100% vegetarians, cows, pigs, chickens...)
"That sounded wonderful" (...in the way a cat getting steamrolled over a chalkboard sounds wonderful)
"This dinner was delicious!" (...it tasted just like the time I mixed all my leftovers from 2 weeks ago and microwaved it for 3 minutes)
"That looks fabulous on you!" (...although no matter what you wear you'll still look like a fat cow.)
"The children were darling little angels" (did I say angels? I meant spawns of satan)
"You can't even tell there was any work done!" (...did someone pull your pigtails too tight? cause it looked like someone shrink wrapped your FACE.)
"I just stole a few of your recepies, they were a big hit!" (...I stole your husband, he was a big hit too)
"I'd love to visit you!" (as much as I'd love to visit a medieval torture chamber...they sure smell the same.)
"I'm feeling fine" (I'm not. I'm really not)

Thou Shalt Not Go Quietly Into the Night...

Today's the first day of spring...but winter is not going out without a bang. :D Today walking back to my car was like arctic water pouring down. Totally freezing. but I still like the rain better than the sun. Winter has the joy of Christmas and New Years, and it is definitely a work hard/play hard season for me. Spring has its good attributes too, but nothing cleanses like a good winter rain. :)

Now and Forever

This has got to be one of my most favorite songs, I could listen to this, literally, forever.

Good songs

This past week has been a REALLY sucky week...and next week doesn't look like it's going to get any better. I am just so frusterated and stressed. The only good thing I can gather from physics class, is that by having this instructor, I'm learning how to deal if I have a really crappy boss later in life.

So. here are some good songs that cheer me up when the week is shit.

• Daydream Believer by The Monkees
• Bad Day by Daniel Powter
• Float On by Modest Mouse

more to be added as I can think of them...so far, that's it. LoL

Random notes

I love my Maroon 5 calendar dude. frickin hilarious, they've got the traditional stuff, Ash Wednesday, Purim, Christmas etc...but they've also got some random stuff, Adam's mom's birthday, Michael Jordan's birthday, and some really cool stuff, the day the phonograph was patented, and pi day. that's right. March 14th (3.14) is pi day :D .....I LOVE IT! :D This calendar is almost as nerdy as me!

Frickin Funniest Video Ever
Ever wonder what those guys who do the voice-overs in the movie trailers look like? ...here's your chance to see. ROTFL. dude this will totally pick up your day :D
