So, not feeling too hot (yay cramps!), I got John to drop me off at the shuttle stop as it pulled up ong his way to the Music Building. Well, fully knowing that my key is somewhere that I'm not, I'm thinking they'll take pity on me and let me in. The one RA(guy) that answered his phone said, "he was too busy" to let me in my room, and I nearly informed him, in specific details, about my migraine headache and tampax deficiency. I didn't though, I went behind the girl at the desk and told the woman in charge of the building and the lazy d.a. had to come upstairs to let me in with the master key. Housing really needs to keep the spare keys in the buildings, or actually make the RAs do something besides just sit, acquire free housing, and make health and safety checks twice a year (meaning they can barge in whenever the want, in the name of checking for extension cords).
On a better note, I survived the major stressed out boyfriend yesterday and actually guilted him into calming down. woot. It was actually more amusing than anything else. I wonder if I look that silly or worse when school freaks me out... I bet its hysterical. haha. But other than that, things have been wonderful. School isn't really phasing me out, but I'm starting to want to get out now. I want to see these hours I put into studying and work become worth something more. I guess I am saying that my classes are all business and I miss my film ones. I'll get some next semester to finish up my minor. I remembered the other day how frustrated I was when I was a freshman, wanting to start my major courses as I was saddled to a very similar curriculum as in highschool; with math, english, history, etc. I wish I could go back to those classes because the stuff I'm studying is so dry and they seem to say the same thing in all my classes, which drives me insane. You can barely separate the topics sometimes. The entire thought process is so weird.
Tonight is my roommate's boyfriend's first live performance in his new band. I am pretty excited for him. Its an interesting, more classical type of rock and roll sound. I have not heard wonderful things about the singer(listening to his recordings make him sound like a punk rock singer), but the rest of them are supposed to be very talented.

Wow it's been a crazy week already
Last weekend was relaxing. We celabrated Dan's birthday friday and saturday. Then Sunday I hung out with my mom. We had great wine and she cooked a great meal. This weekend is going to be a blast. Dan and I are going to a wine celabration and then to the Renasonse Festavle.
I've got midterms next week and i'm freaking out. Gah school

Oh man. What a weekend. So the parents had requested that Damon, the boyfriend, come and hang out w/ us all together. So we were both like, eek! But it actually went really well. I was way amazed. So that was great. And even better, after the parents left - got to spend some time alone with the boy. The whole distance thing really just isn't fun. But it does make getting to see him more exciting when it does happen.
Hope you ladies had a wonderful weekend as well.

Things are interesting. I've been sick since Wenesday but still managed to pull in a few shifts at work. They finally sent me home early on Saturday and cancelled my shift on Sunday. I really love my job and am very excited about being a manager in training. There is sure a lot to learn though.
And I am beginning to think that life here in Hendo isn't so bad...granted my social life is a little dim but it is so beauitful here and I am close to a lot of people I love and care about. I really can't imagine being anywhere else right now.
I've been off of dairy for awhile now and am gong to see my kinesologist this Thursday so hopefully the report will be better but he told me I had to be patient which is something I am not. But I've dropped 10lbs since I moved home so that is kind of nice. I have been doing Pilates once a week with an instructor. I am learning a lot and getting really lean and strong. The instrcutor himself isn't so bad either;) Too bad he's married:(
ANyhow back to TV...

In the manner of being objective
I am very angry. I have a right to be. I had someone tell me (a friend) to "be objective" about a person who not only slandered my name this summer, but also wrote quite a few cruel and creatively false things about me on the internet instead of to my face. I do expect decency from people, and I highly doubt a little bit of sensitivity and loyalty is that much to ask from people who call themselves friend. In the "objective" point of view, I did confront this girl this summer once when she complained about the number of trash bags left over from her friends that weekend. After that, I rarely/never spoke to her and even outright avoided her (which, coincidentally, was also the late-arriving advice of my non-commital and "un-involved" friend). People are so frustrating.

more scientology and crazy cruise
Continuing his vigorous advocacy for Scientology's solutions to mental health problems, Tom Cruise will deliver a series of four lectures on topics related to "The Modern Science of Mental Health" beginning next month. Co-sponsored by the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, the lectures will be held at Scientology's Celebrity Centre International in Los Angeles. All lectures will be free to the public. Due to limited seating at the Celebrity Centre, tickets will be available only to Scientology parishioners and selected members of the press, but the lectures will be simulcast on the web, and a live video feed will be available for broadcasters who wish to cover these highly informative presentations.
The first lecture, set for October 15, is titled "How Psychiatry Invented Schizophrenia, and What Scientologists Can Do About It".
The second lecture, tentatively scheduled for October 22, is on "Handling Sexual Dis-Orientation: Out of the Closet and Into the Auditing Room".
The topic of the third lecture, in early November, will be "Diagnosis and Treatment of So-Called Clinical Depression with the Hubbard Mark Super VII Quantum Electropsychometer".
The fourth lecture is "Neuroanatomical Changes Resulting from Chronic Methamphetamine Abuse: Can Narconon's Sauna and Niacin Treatment Program Help?"
Transcripts of each lecture will be made available after the broadcast.

Oh me what a week already. Tomorrow I must give a 6 minute speech. I'm rather unprepared. My TA actually told us yesterday that she did not think we would be ready. So with that encouragement in mind, I'm struggling.
But after that the week goes downhill and life can be calmer again.
And yay - it's supposed to be cooler this weekend. Maybe fall is finally coming!!

Isn't great that when you finally get motivated to go to the gym you realize, "wait, my sneakers are in my car, which is over parked at John's place," because you got dropped off after lunch to play with Pippin?
Change of plans: No gym until after class.
Positive Result of Ditziness: More playtime with the Pipster herself, who has completely turned around compared to the doped up bunny I picked up from the vet last week.
