A Day's Journey
In the morning:
Good morning, one and all... although I have yet to figure out what's good about it. I've decided to try something new. You see, I think a lot and I thought that I'd try typing a 'train of thought' post as opposed where I actually try to put things in some meaningful order with a little organization too. But no, not today. Of course naturally as soon as I'd start typing, my mind would go completely blank and I'd have nothing to say. Of course. Stuff like that always happens. I had a weird dream last night but I'm not sure what it was about. It had something to do with my aunt's pool. Yeah... anyway.
I have a quiz in my German syntax class in about 30 minutes (it's 9:30am at the moment). Erin and I 'studied' for about 1 hour and 40 minutes last night, but it was actually mostly talking (about the people in the German department or about Erin's little sister or about classes and what not). I wish this class was more about German and less about syntax... so does Erin. I wish the people in the class weren't so much more advanced than I am. The same goes for my other German class. I hate talking in that class because I feel so inferior. Interestingly, I don't really have a problem talking in other classes. I mean, I don't really want to give presentations or anything, but just answering a question or asking a question isn't a big deal unless it's in German. I don't know why. I do feel inferior in German classes but also I don't like to say anything unless it comes out correctly. Yesterday in my language and history class, I answered a question about the Jewish day. It starts at sunset/sundown.
Well, I have to go blow-dry my hair now. And then I must go to class.
11:53 a.m.
That quiz was dumb. I just made up stuff. Bah. The end of the class was quite entertaining though because Mike (the prof) was telling us about hick/hillbilly/white trash speech. He grew up in Kansas and at one point he said, "Does anyone else say that, or an I just doomed to be white trash?" Some of the things he mentioned were 'whopper-jawed', 'this here book and that there book', and 'red up' as in "I have to red up my room before the visitors come" (meaning to clean up or clean off). It was decided that this came from 'to get ready'. And it was really funny because the one guy in the class was so amazed at these phrases and words. Now I'm wondering about the "you'ns" from Elaine...
"That place is hell with the lid off."

4:19 p.m.
I got to walk back from my last class in the rain. I kind of liked it... the rain, that is. The class on the other hand could be more interesting. It's called "Climate and Mankind" and it's somewhat interesting but mostly just ok. The prof is fairly fun though (and rather cute).
My iTunes makes me angry. It's so stupid.
You know... I think that I'm dense, I have a thick skull, I'm a slow processor. I just don't get things. The processing unit in my brain was overloaded and then it crashed and now it's broken.
Crazy Taxi, here I come.
11:57 p.m.
Jenny's going to go to bed soon. I'm not actually very tired, but I'll go to bed before 12:30 or by then at least. Being nervous is annoying. I don't like it. Ugh, compulsive email checking. I should just quit sending emails and then I wouldn't have to check my email every 5 seconds. Arg. I got up to class C on Crazy Taxi today. Woo-flipping-hoo. I like it, but Axel's car is annoying and Gena's repeated phrase is annoying. I wanted to play Medal of Honor but I never got around to it.
And then there's my homework... riiiiiiiiiight. Who does homework anyway? Well, truth be told, I do. Yeah, it's true (for the most part, at least). Tomorrow is Friday.
Wow, I just got really tired. ...And now I have to read my email. I'm scared to. But maybe it'll be ok, just maybe.
