Ugh! What was I thinking?! I let Mandy, Katy, and Allie convince me that they knew how to cut my hair! Sigh... I personally feel like a square right now, especially since the sides of my head come to these stupid little points. j/k. Actually, it's not that bad... I did almost get bludgened to death with scissors and razors though. That was fun! (pictures will be coming soon... unless I decide to burn any evidence hehehe) One thing is for sure though. I now have a new found respect for any and all "professional" barbers/hair stylists/whatever you want to call them! So the 15-20 minute process of cutting my hair ended up being more like 1 and a half to 2 hours... I'm not quite sure... I think I blacked out the first time I saw myself in the mirror... either that or the excessive bloodloss when Allie stabbed me with the scissors. (not entirely her fault though) Than Allie and Katy went on their date (this was about 1 am) and me and Mandy hung out for awhile. By the time 4:30 rolled around I realized there was no way I'd be able to get back to my room before sometime mid-next century, so I just crashed over there per usual. Damn, me and Mandy freaked out Allie and Katy good too! (they deserved it for my haircut! : P j/k) And I just realized something now... I need to watch Conan O'Brian! I haven't seen that show since... since... probably since I watched it with the crew back in Racine before college! I've been watching a little bit more TV now... and by that I mean I watched the Simpsons and Malcom in the Middle this week... Anyway, when I woke up this morning, I was late for class... Econ again. And I actually wanted/needed to fucking go! So than I fell back asleep forgeting that I had to go to work at 11. Woke up about 15 after, realized I was already late for work! (and not dressed, not ready, not in my own room) So I hustled my ass out of there and made it across campus by 11:30. (the small joys of a small campus!) Charlie didn't care... or at least said he didn't care that I was late, which was awesome. I switched hours with Erin so she could go to the Bucks game... which made me want to go to a Bucks game... which made me realize just how broke I really am after this weekend especially! Vanilla snack packs are not as good as I remembered them to be/thought they would be... because I can't remember if I've actually ever had a vanilla snack pack! P.s. I think there is some sort of drug in there that gives it such a cherry and fuschia flavor. I'm trying to write the script for the second RPD movie so we can film it this spring and summer. So far I think it's turning out pretty good. The score sheet for my music test that I took is still "missing" so I still have no clue how I did on that bad boy. I'm out of grapes and bread. I have a song by Bread. (sad but true... I've never listened to it though) I finally set up an appointment with my advisor! Praise the Lord! Because freshmen can't sign up for classes second semester without talking to their advisors first. My 1 and 1/2 lb. bag of candy corn is now gone! I brought it over to Kelsey's and Katie's the other night and that sucka didn't stand a chance! Like that blind midget who brings a knife to a gun fight! Chump! (I almost said fun fight!) I need to start saving money so I can go to the Deftones/Thursday/Thrice concert on the 3rd! But first I need to make money. I'm not the biggest fan of the Deftones, but they're tight. Thursday and Thrice on the other hand are 2 of my favorite bands. (I have (all?) 3 of Thrice's cds... I'm pretty sure there's only 3...) I can't wait for Turkey day! Omg it is now pouring like there's no tomorrow! Can't even see out of the windows! Wow, I'm glad today is my early day to get done with classes otherwise I would be out there! Dinner will be interesting tonight! I was planning on going out and gettin' me a phaesent! Now I'm thinking about making some of my Soup at Hand... but I need Liz here to coach me through it. lol. Sad but fact. Maybe I'll just rock it up with the Flinstones tonight and have me some of my Fruity Pebbles. Fruity Pebbles has the best anpostulac ever! (that's a word I just made up for the milk that's left in you're cereal bowl once the cereal is gone. For my money, it doesn't get any better than Fruity Pebbles when it comes to that! and you can take that to the bank!) Anyway, the rain has stopped and I need food! Hopefully I'll have something to write about tonight instead of more just random thoughts.

So I haven't been able to write in here much lately, just busy I guess. School just has been bearing down on me like a fucking freight train... destination?... El mundo de Dave!... Anyway, I don't really remember anything that happened on Wednesday... you have no idea how frustrating that can be sometimes! I know some good stuff happened... but I just can't f'in remember them! Oh well... not that big of a deal Dave, good grief. All I can really remember is that it was a roller coaster of a day... but it ended up at the top of the hill... and that's what's important, right? So long as you're happy when you go to sleep... (or soooooleep) Thursday, as always, was pretty nuts... I went to my Econ test at 10, which I think I did really good on considering... (I haven't even been to half the classes and I "studied" for maybe an hour?...) Than I had to come back and finish up my business assignment that was due, so I finished that up and than was off to that class... Just more of the same ol' there. After class, I came back to the dorms and chilled with Jim for a bit (I just realized something... I can recite entire scenes from the movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles... a movie that I have seen a max of about 4 times... and I have not seen it in at least 5 years... but I can't fucking remember what the Gross Domestic Product measures after I've been studying it for a freakin' hour! I have the most selective memory I've ever even heard of! My earliest memory is of a time when I was camping with my family at a place called Copper Falls... and we were in this like shelter type thing... and this like park ranger lady was talking about barn owls... and fucking snow owls! (not literally) what the fuck is so important about barn and snow owls that I have to fucking remember about them? I was wearing a fucking red shirt that said Copper Falls on it too and it had a picture of a waterfall on it too... I was wearing shorts (pretty sure my Kool-Aid shorts that I used to have... I loved those things!) and there was like a bird's nest in one of the upper corners of the shelter! Now why the fuck do I need to remember that?! and so now I've lost track of all the fucking parenthesis... so I'll just throw another one in there just to be safe, and because I'm too lazy to go back over what I read and find out... so here) And I can remember all that... but I can't even remember one thing that happened Wednesday... now you maybe see why I get so frustrated sometimes?... So I better get going on talking about today and Thursday before I forget that too eh?... ok... where was I?... Ah yes... after business class... so after Jim went to class, I was talking with people online... and was feeling pretty bad... So I just said fuck it... that and I had to go to class... but I was really in no mood to go... so I decided I would just stay and sleep... except I didn't end up sleeping... I put in the movie 40 Days and 40 Nights... which, I never thought I'd say this about anything... but, ended up being way better than sleep... (is that like blasphemy or something? : \ ) It really ended up cheering me up, maybe that was because I could really relate to it on at least some level... (how sad is that, that a movie can make me feel that much better?... that's like saying that a gerbil that you met on the steet started talking mad ass shit to you and you got fucking scared like a nance and ran away!... point being... in both cases emotion is stemming from something that is not real... fic-tion-al cha-act-ers! am I getting though to you?... "Jay & Silent Bob Strick Back") But it really did put me back into a talkative mood. So I did end up missing my music class... which at the time I thought was no big deal... but than I remembered that it was talent day! Fuck-ass! I wanted to be there for that! Anyway, so I had to go to work... on the way saw a squirell trying out to be a trapeeze artist (possibly the only two words that I will never know/care how to spell?...) like serious... this sucka was swinging around on a trash can like he was fucking... a swinging squirell or something. Than when I finally got ALL the way across campus (lol like 3 minutes later... WALKING! : P ) and I got to the stairs... and I was wearing my zipper sweatshirt... so as I was running up the stairs I was unzipping... ; ) and pretending that I was Superman tearing off his civilian clothes and running into a burning building to save a puppy dog! (a little redundant? puppy dog?... meh) Hey... sometimes ya just have to make your own fun! So work was pretty decent... pointless, but decent. And I finally found out that my Philosophy teacher let me reschedule my test because of the play I was going to. Which, from what I understand... was a damn good one! I did go... it was just that the play was in English... (f'in Billy and his crazy lingo! Damn Shakespeare and his "elevated" language! I tried my hand at it too... with results not nearly as "money-making"?... cough cough) But the play was for real good... even though it was like almost 3 hours long. (I love getting cultured! : \ ) So we got of the play around 10 and I knew I had to start to get going on my homework! (speaking of time... there is a time management workshop next week that I'm hoping to make time for to go to) So yeah, of course I didn't really, actually get started on my homework until about 12ish... and yes, matter of fact I did have a resume and a cover letter to make, an outline to do, and a 5 minute speech to write all before 9... and manage to find time to sleep... and go to bed early enough where I would be able to actually get up and go to class so I could give my presentation. I ended up finishing around 4ish I think? (I don't know... it's hard to judge time... I was working for like a half hour... than I would like take a half hour break... yada yada yada my belt was on too tight so I had to take it off and my pants fell through the ceiling where Don Hoe was waiting for them whilst the webcam broadcast my sweaty body, glistening in the moonlight and the dim glow of the computer screen along with business cards which decided it was time to quit there job at the local 7-11 because Uzbeckimarshareefkalidmuhammad stole the letter M and turned his goat into a solar eclipse with the help of cave people, who I might add are surprisingly tan for living underground their whole lives... must be that whole greenhouse effect thing eh? 20 days until the turkey bites the bullet and gets yummy stuffed shoved up his ass! Gives a whole new meaning to the word stuffing when you look at it that way eh?... Blah! So I managed to wake up "on time" today and I made it to class with a couple to spare... I actually didn't do that bad I don't think considering circumstance! That being STARTING to work on the presentation 9 hours before it was due... completely losing my spot on the dumb ass note cards that we had to use, so I ended up having to try to bullshit my way out of it... than having to completely skip over an entire notecard because I was so lost, thus greatly shortening my presentation, thus giving me an automatic 5% deduction, that and completely, repeat, CCOOMMPPLLEETTEELLYY half-assing my fucking outline that I had to do! All that aside, I think I had good poise, especially considering when I lost my spot on the notecards I just threw them out the window, started shouting out random profanities, kicked the podium over, took a vhs tape out of the vcr and started beating random people in the hall quite profusely with the plastic tape inside of it, than, recalling my days back in 'Nam, went to the Volkswagen dealership, stole three fucking Beatles, drove them into the east river, set that shit on fire, (I would say the word hi-jack in here, but than the CIA would probably be all over my shit!) So I had to make do and throw a Ritz cracker into one of those crazy atom smashing do-hickey-ma-jiggers and watch it get pounded into oblivion which made me really hungry for Wendy's, so I picked up a quick bite, came back, recovered the stewn and discarded notecards, and finished my presentation with the charisma and composure that I am so well known for... That said, I got about an 85% on it... which like I said, given circumstance, is actually real good, like I said, I don't think the teacher hates me anymore! Yay! She was real nice about everything. And now here I am... starving my balls off... so I am going to grab a lil' sumin' sumin' and see what the rest of today brings... (besides a Philosophy test that I still need to study for... lol... maybe it would be easier to pass it if I actually knew where I had to go to take it though...? huh... little food for thought right there...)
Nov. 10
Sooo... this is me updating my website... and not doing my Communications paper that I need to have done by tomorrow.../today. Main reason I'm avoiding this paper I guess is because I've been doing homework, studying, and taking tests all week! This weekend has been like the most boringest week ever... EEVVEERR!!... or at least since that last time I was sick up here. Let's see what happened... Friday was aight... but I just realized that I talked a lil bit about it last time... so... I took my Philosophy test... and think I did at least halfway decent on it... it kinda sucked though, cause she emailed us 4 study questions and said that'd we would get to pick two of them to write about on the test... and I realized that two of them I would be able to write about no problem... so I was like, hey, I don't need to study for this shit!... and when I got there, she made me do the two that I wasn't prepared for... not just one of them... but both! It couldn't have been one and one... nooooo... it had to be BOTH! : P But despite, I think I at least did Bish work on them. Same with the multiple choice. I don't really remember what happened after that... meh. All I know is I tried to go to sleep at least a little early (aka about 3ish I think) because I had a Business test to take at 10:30 am... on SATURDAY! Boo on that! So I went and took that... did o-tay I think... seemed like I "knew" most of what I was talking about. So I came back to the dorm and grabbed some lunch I think... I don't really remember... (grrrrrrr Dave get mad due to severe lack of retentiveness!) Gah! Anyway... it doesn't really matter... because I was really tired so I didn't do much. Than I had to work at 6 with Charlie. That wasn't too bad. Came back and just chilled in the dorms the rest of the night... ended up getting to bed bout 5ish. Got up round 10 this morn for work. Went to work, (and right now there is a silent movie on tv! omg! lol) anyway, went to work which was actually really fun... but looooong. It was way mucho hiatus today though... it was the Honors Band Festival... and we had to have all 8 employees working today! I was working primarily with Erin and Charlie which was cool. Me and Erin were stamping EEVVEERRYYTTHHIINNGG!! up... with... stamps...! Got back a little after 5 and was soooo tired... so I was just watching some football and then the Simpsons and stuff. After that, was just hanging out with Kurt and Casey and stuff... Jim is outa town for the weekend. And now I'm just watching Room Raiders on MTV and there is this one guy on it who feels that spiral staircases are "hot." Ok dudes... get on up off that railing!... Anyway, its like 12:30 so I gotta get crackin on that paper! Blah!
Nov. 10 (update...?)
So wow I am bored... watching the end of the game. Today has been pretty much like the past weekend... uneventful... I missed my econ class again this morning... sleep. Doesn't really matter though because I know that the only thing we did was get our test scores and that was that... I can get that online... I think... So than I got up and started writing my communications paper only to remember... that I have two communications paperS!!! I ended up getting done with both of them at the expense of my Business class... which I know we only took a few notes in and got our test scores back... both of which I can do online... again... So I got ready to go to my communications class (the papers weren't due til later though) and when I got there, discovered that the professor(ette?) was "extremely ill" (aka went out boozin' it up this weekend) and wasn't able to make it to class... so we watched some boring chump ass of a movie... which of course I fell asleep during... class ended like 20 minutes early... which is normally a good thing... but when you have to be to work in like 25 minutes it sucks. So, seeing as how I had no time to really do anything I grabbed some lunch and went to work early. I asked Anna if I could get out early for the band meeting that I had to go to, and she let me and Denise out at 3. After that I went on up to Atomic Records and dropped a bit on a couple cds (a Boysetsfire/Snapcase compilation cd and the new Matchbook Romance cd, both of which will rock your socks off!) So I came back a bit after 4 and Nick stopped by, so we were hanging out until a lil after 5 when Mike called about that meeting, so all three of us went to that trite ass meeting. It was nice getting to actually meet Mike though. Anyway, after the meeting Mike had to leave, so me and Nick were hanging out until my group thing at 7. (I want to call it a study group but its not... the same goes for the word gang bang... : P ) Anyway, went to that, it wasn't too bad, ended up lasting til almost 9. After that, came back to the dorms, hung out with Kurt and Case a bit and just watching the game now... GO EAGLES! That was mos def a fumble Brett! Haha! Sucka! : P And the Eagles win! And I'm hittin the showers! Lates ladies and gents.
