Class was fine yesterday. Graphic Design 2 was okay. We worked on our first assignment. It’s our “identity” logo or whatever. I’ll post when mine is finished. Got lots of (good) suggestions during critiques, so I must figure out how to do things. Electronic Imaging made my head spin. Our first assignment is a doozy. We have to make a realistic scene using textures. I’ll be working on it forever, I swear. TOO MANY ASSIGNMENTS. My head will explode and we’ll see pieces of Illustrator and Photoshop scattered about. But I learned how to use layer masks and blending masks. Totally psyched to start using them. I’m so nerdy.
I’m going to see Halloween with Blaine and Cody tomorrow. YAY! *horror freak* I’m not looking forward to getting up at 7:30 to go to the computer lab tomorrow. I can foresee a nap sometime after I get home. Lab time makes me sleep. Sad. I also need to go to the bank and cash a couple of checks and go by the gas station.
The best news is MY CAR IS FIXED! Yes, that does call for all caps because it’s been a piece of poo for THREE YEARS. The problem? The spark plugs. No joke. That was all that needed to be fixed. Too bad the stupid people that did the tune up ages ago didn’t change them like they were supposed to. Bah.
I was just reading about progesterone cream and I realized I totally could have used this a couple of weeks ago. Normally, I don’t have cramps all that bad, but it was pretty bad last month. Anyway, the cream is supposed to help prevent them among many, many other things. It’s only $24.95, and if I have cramps this month like I did last month, it would probably totally worth buying. We’ll see.
I’m so tired. I think I’ll be calling it a night early.

I think I can say my weekend was well and perfectly boring. I didn’t do much of anything worthwhile. Not that I’m really complaining. Sometimes it’s just nice not to do anything. Grandma and I went to the grocery store on Friday evening. We went by the Dollar Store down the road from it first to buy some other stuff, but they didn’t have any carts in the store, so we didn’t end up getting everything we needed.
We still need to go back to the store. I need to get cat litter and cat food for Smokey. I also need some hair products. I got shampoo and conditioner, but they didn’t have the Fructis hair cream I’ve been using. I really like it, so I wanted to get more, but I’ll have to wait. I also need to get some more skin care products. I’ve been using Clean & Clear acne cream, and I’m about out. It seems to work the best, which is surprising since most of the other Clean & Clear stuff I’ve used has caused me to break out. I’m not sure why either. It’s weird. Hopefully we’ll go by the store today or tomorrow.
I dropped my car off at the shop last night. I’m hoping to hear back on what’s wrong with it. I’m hoping that it will be something cheap that works to fix the problem. I probably shouldn’t hold my breath, though, since nothing else seems to have worked so far. There’s always hope, though, I suppose.

I finally got me books today. I was beginning to wonder if they would ever come. Luckily, they arrived today. In all three classes, they said we’d have some reading assignments, so it made me a little worried about not having them. Class last night only lasted for about an hour. It doesn’t seem like it’s going to be too bad of a class. It’s mostly about prepress stuff. My grandpa should be happy to hear that because he keeps asking me if we’ve talked about that.
I’m going to try to do some writing today. I’ll have to get all of my notes out to refer to. We could really use a larger desk in here because there isn’t a whole lot of work space. I need one of those executive desks when it comes to writing because I usually have a notebook and a couple of folders full of things to refer to and it’s hard to find them when they’re all piled on top of each other. Unfortunately, I don’t think we’d be able to fit a bigger desk in here. :( I’ll just have to make due.

Man, I’m tired. I slept in today, but I’m still sleepy. I’m really not looking forward to going into class tonight. I think I’ll be lucky if I can stay awake. I thought about taking a nap before I go in, but I don’t know if I’ll actually do it. I’ll also have to find something to eat before I go since I’m there from 6 to 8:50. I’m kind of hoping my grandma will cook dinner early tonight.
I got the movie The Number 23 today. I’ll probably wait and watch it tomorrow since I don’t have anything to do or watch tomorrow. The only thing I really hate is that we don’t really have a very good set up for watching movies. We have a DVD player in the computer room, but the chair really isn’t that comfortable. I also don’t really like watching it on the computer because it kind of hurts my eyes. Then in the living room the couch isn’t very comfortable either. I wish we had the space for home theater seating. I think that would be so cool and comfortable. Maybe someday.

Today was my first day of classes. Overall, it wasn’t too bad, but, boy, am I tired! I was basically at the school from 1:30 to 9 for two different classes. I have another class tomorrow from 6 to 8:50. I don’t mind the classes themselves. It just makes for a long day. Between the two classes, I went to Wendy’s with my friend Shakti to get something to eat, so that helped pass the hour between the two classes.
My stomach is kind of bothering me now, though. I probably shouldn’t have gotten a sandwich and went for the salad like I was planning to. Although my stomach has been bothering me a bit the last couple of days. I don’t really know why. I figure I probably need to start taking some sort of nutritional supplements to balance things out with my diet. I also really need to start walking again. I’ll probably have to do it without my mom because she’s been sick the last couple of days. I just wish it wasn’t so hot and humid outside. This weather has been crazy lately. It feels like a swamp. Yuck.
