It's amazing how someone who is sitting in your chair will totally ruin your day.

I mean really dude? I sit there every freaking single class period. EVERY SINGLE ONE! Just because you were early does not give you the right to sit in my seat!

Yeah. I'm territorial. >_< I wanna smack this jerk with a wiffle bat.

I GOT MY STUDENT LOAN! I can afford to take another art class! (Seriously. I spent over $300 for my summer class on materials.)

Going to Dragon*Con won't bankrupt me! HOORAY!

I'm a really big dummy.

I forgot all about a test in my textiles class that's on Thursday. I remembered at 10:24 and I only gone done studying about 15 minutes ago. She gave us a review sheet and I wrote down all of the answers and then reread all of my notes. For less than a month's worth of classes, there's a lot of information to go over.

I think that I'm going to get a low grade. I don't think I'll fail but I don't see me getting an A either.

I'm very tired but I can't sleep. I need to pick up my room and get my stuff together for school tomorrow. Ugh.

Oh yeah. I have to get up at 6:30. :(

I cannot leave for school! I was just told to stay home because the roads are so icy that my mother's husband had to just pull over on the side of the road. Grrr!ARGH!!!!

I have a project due today people!!!!

Return of the Edit: School is delayed two hours so there is hope!

Revenge of the Edit: Wrecks to the left, fender-benders to the right, here I am, stuck in black ice with you.

Given that part of the road that I have to travel down is closed and given that there have been two new wrecks just reported on the same road, I think I'm gonna forgo my 10:30 class and just try to make it to my 12:25 drafting class. >_<

Attack of the Edits: The professor of my drafting class is iced in as well. No class for me! So that just leaves one class missed out of three which isn't too terribly bad I think.

I am worried about tomorrow. It's supposed to drop below freezing tonight and it's still raining. :(

I just signed up for a sixth class because I didn't want to wait two hours between two classes on Tuesdays and Thursday. I'm a mashochist or something.

When I got my financial aid check I got $2000 out in cash to buy books and supplies because it's going to be about a week until I get my bank card and I wanted to put some in my other savings account.

Well...

I've spent close to $1215.

I bought books ($430), new prescription eyeglasses ($280), had car repairs done ($150), bought groceries, new undergarments (I really did need them) ($80), gas ($40), a few odds and ends at Wal-Mart and target, about $30 on my nephew, $20 on my sister and that's it.

I don't really have much to show for it. o.O

I still havn't bought my drafting supplies. >_

In an effort to eat better I have bought some organic quinoa flakes for breakfast, agave nectar to sweeten things with, and unrefined celtic sea salt to season things with. It's but a small start.

I got my student loan money. I paid my student fees and submited another financial aid appeal form. I didn't buy my books yet. I think I may drop one of my classes so that I'm just taking four. It'll be easier on my pocketbook that way.

I'm not going to spend it all in one place but I am going to use a little bit to eat healthier. I don't think that there is anything wrong with that.

Also. Because my math class is at 7:30am I've been getting up at 6:00am in the morning. It's killing me.

I have a headache. I need sleep.

1. Pellissippi has seemingly lost my financial aid appeal form.

2. I have received my loan check. There's quite possibly will be a 7-10 business day hold on the funds.

3. My fees are due Wednesday.

Tomorrow, I have to go to Pellissippi and fill out yet another appeal form. I also must check to see if they have any emergency loan programs.

*twiiiiitch*

I GOT MY LOAN!

NOW I CAN STILL KEEP GOING TO SCHOOL EVEN IF THEY DENY MY APPEAL!

HOORAY!!!!

The only bad news is that it will be mailed out on the 31st which means I won't see it until around the 7th and fees are due on the 3rd for priority registration.

The news just mentioned a LEEDs certified building. I know what that is. I R SMART!

And you know, I have an 86 in math going into my finals. THAT SHOULD BE A B!

Is it a B? No! 87-93 is a B. 86 is still just a C. :(

I just got pre-approval for a three thousand dollar loan for the spring semester. ><

In all fairness, I really do need the money. I need Auto-CAD and I don't think any of my computers will run it. I also need a drafting table.

I NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE FL'IST!!!! AND I NEED IT NOW!

I am going to be doing a collage for art class. I have decided to do it, possibly, on the hypocracy of the church (in general). Things like the bible says that you should love your neighbor and judge not but then some churches are like this. I don't just want to focus on how the church treats gay people although I could do my whole board on it.

So I need examples like this people and unfortunately I don't have time today until my art class to goggle for them.HELP!? Please!

Edit: This church is crazy! o.O

I have spent all day working on my color project for Intro to Interior Design. I have gone to Lowes to get paint chips. I went to Hobby Lobby to get cardstock. I printed off the images. I have collaged the paint chips to reflect the colors used in my photograph samples of an interior, wallpaper, area rug and painting. It is done. My grandfather may kill me for printing in color but we'll see.

I'm not sure that I did it right though. >_> It does look good though and that counts for a lot in Interior Design.

The teacher has been out with strep and her baby boy was hospitalized with something. I wanna say croup but I'm not sure. Either way I didn't get to see a sample of what other students had done.

It is 2am though. I am going to go to bed. Goodnight.

And if you want a Christmas card, comment now. Comments will be screened.

I almost had a heart attack in math class. My teacher asked me if I was going to retest to get my grade up. I said I passed. She said I made a 65. Then she looked at my tets and all is well.

So far, I have an 89.7 average for the semester in math. That is a B and I'll take it.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I'm just now remembering how to do a math problem as I retake a quiz and I just took a test on it this morning!!!!

I over complicated it. :(

Edit: $#UIOFDJKFASJ:ltgroi@*&$#QIO!!!!! I just got a 95.7 on that quiz!!! Damnet!

I'm watching my grandparents cat and dog for the week so I'm staying at their house. I went home to let the dog out and I had a microwavable meal. It was talapia with a citrus salsa and coconut couscous. It was okay but the coconut stuff wasn't very flavorful and kind of dry. I'm going to have salmon for dinner, I think with BBQ sauce. I was given money for food so I splurged a bit.

And I just completed my first art project in 2D design. It's craptastic. Seriously. There are no redeeming features about it except that I followed the directions. Everyone else's was good but not mine.

I have a test today as well, my first one. It's in Intro to Interior Design. I've studied twice already but I'm going to do so again right before. I'm just going to re-read the classnotes and what I wrote down.

I just want to pass.

Tomorrow, I'm going back home to get stuff for the yard sale that my grandparents will be having after they get back. I have a lot of stuff that I want to get rid off. I'm not using it. It's clothes I never will wear again, so why not make a few bucks off of it. I'm going to price everything super low and hopefully I'll be able to get rid of it.

I think that since my parents are also going out of town for vacation, I'll tell my Mom that I was fired. I may do the passive-aggressive thing and write her a note because damn I can't deal with her nagging right now. I know I'm a spectacular failure. She doesn't need to reinterate it.

Blah.

Today, Knoxville was blanketed by showers. Most of the time, it wasn't a very hard rain. It was a gentle shower. HOWEVER! The time that the heavens split to unleash a torrent of water was the exact same time that I was walking to class. By the time I reached the building I was drenched down to my panties. Water was dripping from my hair. My backpack was soaked. By the time that class was over it had gone back to a drizzle.

I froze for the rest of my classes.

Also. To the girl that is in my art class, the next time you see me it's okay to not talk to me. I won't think you're rude. In fact, be rude. I'd appreciate it more you annoying, fucking twit. Seriously. I'm about this close -- to being rude and not ginger with your ass. Stop talking.

This last bit is probably going to only amuse me. Doctor Who on Sci-Fi is being sponsored by the People of the United Methodist Church. :D

I HOPE THAT EVERYONE WHO IS GOING TO DRAGON*CON HAS A WONDERFUL AND SAFE TIME!!!!

Also. I just finished my math homework. 1-89 doing every other odd. I only got one wrong and one I'm doing some funky stuff and got lost. I think that for me that is pretty good. I don't feel optimistic about it but I don't feel quite so pessimistic about it.

Oh yeah. They let me switch to a lower math class. I DO NOT MIND AT ALL! I tried to switch with my adviser but they wouldn't let me. The first day of class my teacher approached me and asked. I jumped at the chance. THANK YOU JESUS!

I'm taking Western Civ I. The classroom is hot but the class isn't boring. There's a lot of notes taken which is okay but the classroom's temperature is stifling. It's all the way on the third floor and the class is pretty packed.

I'm re-taking Intro to Interior Design. The last time I took it was eight-nine years ago. I got a B but that's still a long time in between. So far it's not boring but we'll see.

I'm taking 2D Design. UGH! THIS IS BORING RIGHT NOW! All we do is talk and discuss. >_< The teacher needs to pick up the pace.

I'm also taking Intro to Word Applications (Word-Excel-Access-Powerpoint). It's not boring but it's just kind of generic.

Books are so freaking expensive. I spent (including my TI-83 calculator) around $600. It was outrageous. I should have asked for the full freaking amount on my loans. I was looking forward to getting new glasses.

Also. The boy, Grant, is walking now. :D

I HAVE TO TAKE A COLLEGE, DEVELOPMENTAL ALGEBRA CLASS! HOLY FUCKING HELL I'M GOING TO FAIL!

I also have to get an expensive as fuck, TI-83 calculator. Jesus H. Christ!
