One thing I really hate about my brain:
You start thinking about something bad. Then a flash-forward happens to a really ugly situation. Then you cry cause you know it could happen.

I want a vacation.

"You gotta fight the good fight/
when no one's dragging you along/
on a long long summer night/
you're gunna come to realize/
with your valleys in the trench/
then your heart's gotta mobilize"

Grant-Lee Phillips - Mobilize
one of the best songs ever.

"So to the protestor of this war I implore you: Speak out against the government. It is your right to do so. But do not turn your anger on those who are brave enough to defend your right to do so. They not only do a job that you won’t do, but it is also a job you can’t do."

I picked up the Fall 2003 schedule. Flipped through it and noticed they cut back usefull GE classes and scaled up on upper division courses. Lame-0 for me. I'll be registering on time for once and perhaps I'll have some decent classes. Too bad the UNIX course I wanted to take is only offered in the evening. Evening classes + Amanda = no good. Need to stick to daytime classes. I'm thinking of another Sociology class, but I really need to get these goddamn GEs out of the way. I can't remember what else I need to take. I need to retake Calculus, find a different language class and some sort of Communications class. Then I'll tag on a science and a fun class to keep me sane. Maybe Briona and I can take the science and fun class together.

My mom just told me about her spending adventures. New carpeting is coming this month, new patio furnature is delivered Thursday (nice ass stuff...sheesh) and they are "toying" with the idea of construction again. She wants to add a back room connected to the kitchen for a den type thing. We have a family room upstairs next to my room, but with the new carpet, she doesn't want anyone eating up here, etc. So basically, it's going to be this room attached on one side to the patio, and the other to the kitchen. It's going to be a modified sunroom type thing with a TV, couches, Mom's treadmill, and various shit. Sounds neat I guess.

I ordered my camera yesterday and it will be here Thursday. I'm really excited about it. It's an Olympus C-720.


Here's to a new creative outlet!
