work work work ouch!

There is SOO much school work to do right now, dang it! All professors seems to just love to give lots of work about 3rd and 4th week for some reason, I think it's because they think we've had it easy until now, but that's not true! We NEVER have it easy, the students always get the brunt of everything: the fee increases, the TA strikes, etc. Grr. But I will not dwell on what I cannot change.

But speaking of work, I started my new job at the Ucla stockroom yesterday, yes yes very exciting I know. Actually, it's not a very exciting job, but I'm not complaining, I got it quickly, the hours are super flexible, my boss is cool, and sometimes I get paid to sit around and study when there's no work to be done. So it's all good.

But to degress into something that isn't good, Crest Whitestrips! They don't tell you in the commercial that the little suckers don't stick to your teeth well, they sting your tounge (or at least mine), and you have to wear them for 30 minutes 2 times a day for 2 weeks to see results. (!!) I don't have icky teeth or anything, and I did see a little more whiteness after the first time so maybe that's not true about having to wear them so much, (maybe that's for people with really bad teeth), but dang they are the most awkward things to wear! At least they work, or seem to. Still, oowie.

Today's Color: The color of my beautiful teeth. :P

Ohh
Up every evening 'bout half eight or nine
I give my complete attention to a very good friend of mine
He's quadraphonic, he's a, he's got more channels
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five
I brought my baby home, she, she sat around forlorn
She saw my T V C one five, and then baby's gone, she
She crawled right in, oh my
She crawled right in my
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five
Oh, so demonic, oh my T V C one five

Maybe if I pray every, each night I sit there pleading
"Send back my dream test baby, she's my main feature"
My T V C one five, he, he just stares back unblinking
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five
One of these nights I may just
Jump down that rainbow way, be with my baby, then
We'll spend some time together
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five
My baby's in there someplace, love's rating in the sky
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five

it's all a matter of time.

Well, i'm back in the dorm again, and armed with tons more of my stuff that I can use to clutter my room up with! I really SHOULD be doing some reading or something, but eh. Sometimes you just gotta sit back and enjoy all the work you've just done.... and not do work while you're doing it. My room's coming together nicely, all except this damn bulletin board which refuses to stay up, grumble... it's mocking me I know it. I'll think of a really cleaver idea for putting it up and it will stay all nice and straight on the wall for about 10 mintues, lulling me into a false sense of security, then bam! (Quite literally) It comes crashing down. I'll think of something yet, I refuse to let the inanimate objects of this world get the better of me. So far the score is about 3 to 7, but I will even the playing field soon enough, soon enough.

Colour (as they say in England): Fine, thanks.

we take full credit for the nagging pangs of doubt you are currently experiencing.

Why read a blog? Someone else's that is... it seems to me that there's always an expectation for the person reading a blog, which is "this better be interesting, or why else am I reading the daily log of some random person's life?". I guess it's a sort of 'Truman Show' mentality, taking comfort in the nuances of someone else's existence, but with the shear number of people with access to blogs and that sort of technology, there's just too much nuance to go around. I can see if you're reading a friend's blog (open-entry 'diary'), scouring the pages with a reference to yourself or someone else you know, but in the same way that 'The Real World' is an accurate portrayal of life, a blog is an accurate portrayal of someone's feelings, opinions, etc. It's a pseudo-science of accuracy, but I also think it gives people a sense of, I don't know, importance maybe? You're given a space on the limitless landmass of the world wide web, and told that if you write down how your day was, someone will read it and listen and understand you, and what's more, enjoy doing so.

Therefore, that's always in the back of your mind, that somewhere in some other time zone, someone is reading, listening to you. "How was your day, darling?" "Oh, fine, thank you so much for asking. This happened, that happened, shoutout to my homegirl who helped me with such-and-such (Because you have the link to your blog in your profile, you're sure your friend will read this), and I feel this way about that..." and so on and so forth. It's being distinctive in a world of anonymity, and that is a truly special feeling.

So what's the conclusion to this tirade of nonsense? I don't even really know if there is one, really, just something to pass the time. Plus, isn't college the time when you're supposed to be all philosophical and 'enlightened' and whatnot? Sure it is, and anyways, that's what I'm making it, and since this is MY blog, and I know you're all listening attentively, I'm sure you all agree.
"Yes, yes dear, that's exactly right." :)

Color: I'm happy. I don't particularly like yellow, but it's sunshine and happiness and all that good stuff.

Today's Color: feeling blue for my blog...
