I’m Hearing: KoRn - Clown

This morning I got up at 6 AM so I could shower before work, and I ended up getting to work 1/2 hour earlier than usual. Weird. My hair smells nice from the new shampoo…it’s so odd how I can get so used to one scent that I can’t smell it anymore, then when I change it up a little, it’s very obvious. shrug Hmm.

I got to talk to Ross and Jules quite a bit yesterday which was really really nice. It feels so good to sit down at the computer and have little windows pop up with messages telling you how happy someone is to see you. I never really think about this kind of communication as just a window of text on a screen…to me, each individual window takes on the personality of the person behind it and I can almost hear their words in their own voice, even if I’ve never heard it before. In other words, they’re real to me. In any case, I must say, I just adore my Aussie friends. :3 They’re wonderful!

Oh yeah, the package I sent to Australia seems to have arrived intact. <whew!> Hope the guys enjoy the game and vcds. :-D

I felt kind of vacant yesterday at work…my mind was just drifting and drifting, but I managed to read and absorb more than previously though, since I finally got to a section that explained things I haven’t known for like 4 years already. I love learning things, and it’s really great when things make perfect, logical sense to me. (which seems to happen a little too rarely)

I spent most of last night just kind of laying around. I napped after work of course, then got up and watched a bit of TV. There wasn’t much on after the normal slew of reruns was over so I put on Ten Things I Hate About You. Yeah, I know, it’s a teen movie and everything…but I really like it. It has a great theme (I do really like Shakespeare’s themes even if I find his own use of language pretty incomprehensible) plus I think Julia Stiles is a terriffic actress. Not to mention Heath Ledger’s accent…mmmmmmmmm. Okay, so I really like that accent. *^_^*

The rest of the night I pretty much just lay in the dark listenting to winamp shuffle through a huge eclectic playlist which was really nice, although I’m strangely tired today. I even went to bed about 4 hours earlier than "normal." Arg…so odd…sleep is like against me or something. I need it to a certain extent, but I wish I could get away without it. I have this sort of love/hate relationship with it because I really love dreams, and one cannot dream that way without sleep. (Daydreams are a different story altogether.)

I think I’m going to try to pay my tuition bill today. @_@ I can’t afford it of course, so thank god for credit cards. It’s such a blow to give up all that money, just knowing how much debt I’m racking up. Waaa. This is what I face being poor though.

So yeah…school starts again on Monday. Luckily I only have one class so it shouldn’t be too horrible. (I think the class is painting too, so wheeee!!)

Hmm, taking my car in tomorrow for repairs, so I’ll have to walk to and from work…I really really hope it’s not too cold out or it will really suck, since it’s about 2.5 miles(ish). That isn’t bad at all when it’s nice out, but when that negative degree wind is whipping you in the face, it’s painful even walking a couple hundred feet to the car…GAH, winter SUCKS so much. I have to get away from this. Yet another reason I should move to Australia. :3

Oh yeah, and this is just about the funniest thing I’ve seen in a looooong time: LotR: TTT Engrish subtitles. When you look at them, make sure you’re somewhere where it’s okay to laugh out loud, because you will, I guarantee it. If you’ve read any other journals the last few days, you’ve probably already seen it (I’m a little slow on the draw, I know) so if nothing else, this will serve as a bookmark for myself so I don’t have to remember the URL when I want to show it to peeps I know in real life. :-D
