I graduated college Friday :D so now I'm back at my mom's place. It's definitely better than the dorms, and having food that doesn't make me sick is awesome, so I shouldn't complain, but it's a trailer. Because of the way the sun rises and sets, the side of the place where my room is always is about ten degrees hotter than the rest of the place. So I'm usually sweating. Also my room is small, along with the rest of the place. I only have enough room for my queen sized bed. The room was full before I brought all of my college things back, so I have a feeling my car is going to stay full for the summer.

On top of that, I sometimes feel the need to stay the night at my boyfriend's house because I'm 21 and also because of the reasons mentioned above. I did this last night and I called my mom to tell her that I would be staying with Greg. So she asks me where I'm going to sleep and I lie and say on the couch ( :oops: because I'm a wuss). Then she precedes to say "whatever. It's God you'll have to answer to, not me". For the record, I'm still a virgin (sorry if that's too much detail). Comments like that bug me though. My parents tell me stuff like that for every little thing I do. I'm pretty much forced into lying about most of what I do. And I'm really not that bad of a person. I just hate how they always make me feel guilty about everything. I mean seriously...I just graduated college the day before. I never failed a class, never went to a frat party, never once asked them for money! How much better do I have to be? :evil:

*sigh* Job hunting tomorrow so I can hopefully get married next summer and move out. But its Arkansas, so... yeah. Wish me luck, I guess. :?

Another "wonderful" Monday at work, with meetings all day. And I didn't get much sleep over the weekend, so I can hardly keep my eyes open. I hate excessive meeting habits. :evil:

So I apparently now have a doctor's appointment on.....whenever my dad goes in to get his blood test results. He hasn't given me a date yet.
On top of that, he plans to tell my mom the day before about all of the stomach/intestine crap (how ironic) I've been going through. "Just to prepare her in case it really is somethig bad, but late enough that she doesn't yell to get you to the nearest emergency room asap." I tell him that even if it is one day before she'll still want to rush me to the emergency room. :roll:

You're playing at the academy awards? Gee, you're more talented than I even thought!

Well, she's right there, so, since you're an adult, you can choose to ignore her to the extent that it doesn't impinge upon the fact that you are living under her roof for the time being (i.e., if she says you can't bring him to her house, that IS her right). It's not her business. That is between you and God (or your conscience, if you don't believe in God). But don't forget, adult or no, you'll always be her "little girl" and she's still trying to look out for you. If you feel that she's overstepped boundaries, you can always try to explain that to her, respectfully.

Well, nobody asked my opinion, but I for one say "Good for you!" (recently commented on this matter the following NSFW/NSF-Snickie video, http://www.youtube.com/all_comments?v=cw_GIBfuZ3Y )

And now, my own TotD: Well, last night we had an informational meeting about the new school that's being started up to help all us "lost souls". Looks pretty good,t hey've gotten pretty much everything all squared away, they've worked all the figures, they've got all the licensing, faculty, etc. All that remains for a go/no-go is to see if they've got the requisite 75+ students at full tuition to sign up, obviously the one factor they have no control over.

Grades got posted today! I am slowly but surely dragging my GPA back up toward where it was before I had a breakdown two years ago. I won't restore it completely before I'm done, but at least it's never dropped below 3.5. Ever since the break, I've gotten nothing but As, so that's helping push it up slightly and there's a very real chance that I might graduate with a major GPA of 4.0.

I might go run over to my mommy's when she wakes up later 'cause I know she'll be excited for me xD. Getting excited about grades never used to be my thing, but I think some part of me feels like I have to keep getting excited or I'll end up in the same place I was two years ago. Whatever the reason, yay! :D

Congrats to everyone who made it through another semester. I somehow managed to pull an A in my programming class. Maybe I should apply for that job after all. :?

Comy, I hear ya... It's so hard to pull up a GPA once you slip even just a little.

I don't know what's wrong with me but I'm like grabbing at straws to find something...anything...to take for the summer. Like I don't have enough crap I need to get done without adding homework to the mix. I have some insane need to be enrolled in school.

Warning: Possible TMI moment! Read at your own discretion.

Soooooooooo, you guys remember those pains I've been whining about as of late? Well, they can't hold a candle to my menstrual cramps. Now that I actually have them, everything else is so minor and insignificant. Starting late made me forget, but now they're all I can think about. MURRRRRGH I HATE YOU NATURE. :x

Finally made myself watch the final product for the contest late last night.

There were so. many. problems v.v

I know it couldn't be perfect with such a small time frame but ohmydamn. The skip is fine, that's understandable when you have just one person doing everything on no sleep, but I feel like I should have caught the issues with the script. I kept squirming in place while watching last night.

Too damn late now. It's being screened Thursday night, or so I'm told. I fail at being optimistic in this case because I have this standard/default belief that anything I'm involved in fails.
Though, it was damn good word. The actors were pretty fantastic and I still can't hear the last scene without laughing hysterically and hearing the bloopers version of it.

Cross your fingers and hope for good standings. This would be a really awesome win for the production company.

This is going to sound strange, and might fall into the TMI catagory....but....I think I burned my butt.
When people tell me that great minds think alike, all I can do is look at them and think "oh you dirty, dirty bastard"

It might have something to do with that "holding a candle to it" that Snickie mentioned.
