Two words:
Fuck you, midterms. Well, that's three words, but frankly, I don't care. The midterms were surprisingly easy, I'm just irked that I still have so much to do right on the top of the midterms that they get thrown down the list of priorities! Now that I have my projects left to do... it's almost 8pm on Thursday night and I haven't really started on them either. Sims really took over my soul, especially since I got this brand new expansion called Apartment Life.
I mean, seriously. APARTMENT. LIFE.
And I'd find any way to procrastinate too. I'm relapsing into the first semester, fuck. I'll have to tread carefully or I'll drown once again, and that was NOT fun at all. I just need to finish everything tonight because I'm going to the mountains this weekend and I won't have the internet. I'm skipping my last class tomorrow because the amtrak leaves only at one certain time. Skipping my first class this Monday as well -- I'm going to spend the day with Dave. :) so I'm doing the workload that's due tomorrow and Monday.
Thank god for coffee. I'm drinking decaf right now, though.
Okay, okay, I'm going to start my shit now.

Back from the Dead
So, children, it has been almost two months since I've done an update. Sorry! A lot has happened, and it's a lazy Saturday early afternoon, so I thought I'd make a proper entry and let you into what's happened lately.
The classes has been surprisingly easy on me so far. I started this semester thinking, "Oh god, this is going to KILL me." and now I'm shocked that I have free time. Sometimes it feels like a dream and I wonder when I'm gonna wake up and find all the due dates are today, or something equally horrible. I'm using this time to go off-campus and explore DC and everything. Classes, plus going off-campus, plus mini-shopping sprees, and there's also long-term projects and friends to see -- and add a man to the mix, and I've got a life! The next weekend I'm to go to the mountains, home, in Virginia. I have the need to be by myself and away from civilization -- what best way to do but go to the mountains in the middle of nowhere? No internet, no cell phone signal, few people, and nature all around you?!
Drama in that department ("love," dating, relationships) in other people has been going around like flies on garbage here as well. Love triangles, cheating partners, and crushes on impossible people are more than abundant here, so it's funny to sit back and watch it all. Freshmen all around me are fucking one other and talking crap behind their backs, some sort of a trend with this year's froshies! My frosh year, I was single and didn't have one single experience, be it sexual or anything else, with anybody, and the rest of us 2011ers were already a couple from before. Now this year's freshman class is full of single horndogs. Funny to compare!
My classes. Well, let's see -- my GSR class has been easy so far, except for the quizzes. We have three books to read and I do my reading homework, I swear! ...Except for this one atrocious book, "Food Politics" it's a sucky reading! So I avoid it and accept when I fail my quizzes. The labs on Fridays has been fun, though. There is this one person who misses all the important things in class and later texts me asking what she has missed. I tell her to ask the professors -- I don't really give a tiny rat's ass either. You're on your own here, doll :)
The rest of my classes are pretty easy. I'm enjoying my creative writing class, where all I do is write and write, and the professor don't actually check our work. I could bring in my paper that I wrote during my sophomore year in high school and she'd check it as homework handed in, but I don't! I wish I felt the same way with my Intro to Edu class, because I'm beginning to just... not like it. Maybe it's because of the professor's lack of... reasonable teaching skills, or the other people's rude stupidity, or just the class itself. I'm not enjoying it. For linguistics, I like it but it's really easy so far. ASL has been really exciting too.
I have a semester-long project for ASL, too, and I'm to compare the song by Marilyn Manson, "This Is The New Shit" in English lyrics and the video of the song in ASL. It should be really fun and challenging! I haven't really had any problems with my professors, either. It's funny because everybody else complains about them. It's not the professors' fault when you're too stupid or narrow-minded to understand them :)
I've also noticed a change in my disposition. I've just stopped taking shit from people, and I tell them what's on my mind. It's pretty scary, when you reflect on how I used to be back in high, or middle, school. Some people have dubbed me as a bitch, but I've gotten tired of arguing with people and taking their negative energy into my stomach. I must say, it's gotten me on a positive side of my life!
My arms are sore! This entry will do for now! I promise I'll make another update less than two months :)
