My "harry potter" glasses, as Layla calls them, have officially broken, so I've resorted to wearing my pink-tinted bebe designer prescription glasses that I got in 11th grade, and my cup runneth over with compliments. ^_^
Anyway, I want documentation that my Spring Break ROCKED (!), and my memory constantly lapses, so I desperately need this blogged out; however, I just did so many things that I couldn't possibly write it on one blog. I think I'll break it down into series. So, here goes my attempt.
My Spring Break started in Orlando, where I stayed with my Tita Pacing from Saturday to Monday. I left Gainesville Saturday around 11 am, thinking that i had to be in Orlando by 1 pm. Tita Pacing bought both of us tickets to Cirque Du Soleil, and I thought it started at 2 pm. So, I raced to Orlando yet still hit I-4 traffic. When I finally arrived at 1:30, I find out that the show started at 6 pm that night. I was even all dressed up for the occassion, thinking I wouldn't have time to dress in Orlando. Instead, she took me straight to a Chinese buffet for lunch. All the people were looking at me like I was crazy for being so overdressed. I'll tell you-- I looked good.
The food at that restaurant was so good, or maybe it was just because I hadn't eaten since that Friday afternoon that I was able to consume four plates full of MSG-free Chinese food. Either way, I was content.
Cirque du Soleil was so amazing, I was just in awe with the stunts those performers could do onstage. However, fatigue from my Physics test had settled in on me, and I was desparately trying not to nod off. I enjoyed that show so much. I really don't know how to describe it all, because it was so abstract. I came out of Downtown Disney wishing I could be a fearless tightrope-walking acrobatic contortionist; but then again, with or without watching Cirque du Soleil, I would have had that secret desire. =P
Will update on more later. Going to sleep now.
it's a rosy world

Now in the hands of the physics god
06 March 2004The test yesterday was not bad. I studied 3 days, paid someone $30 to teach me, and now I have a 7! A 7 out of 10! That was $30 well spent. =)
Anyway, Spring break is here--the week where intentions to do homework are put through a paper shredder. I said I would do thermo, physics, get ahead on bio, and so forth and so on. My dad's one request is that I don't get drunk.

The heavens opened after a week of dreariness, and the sun came in, awaking the dormant earth...
03 March 2004And all the plants, recently rained upon, received the next element necessary for photosynthesis-- Sunlight. The plants were able to thrive once again, and in a frenzy, they let out their seeds to be fertilized, so that future generations would be able to nourish themselves in such sublime conditions. Their seeds, however, do not have the same discriminatory tendencies that their parent plants do, so they do not differentiate between the ground, and... say, my sinuses!
I hate everytime that this happens!! Today is officially one of those non-breathing days for me. I hate allergies.
But today has been a good day, despite the episodes of sneezing. I found out today that I made a 91 on my thermodynamics test. A 91-- me!! This test grade is coming from the same girl who asked the TA on the week of the exam, "what is the first law of thermodynamics, again?" I'm sure TA Adam was thrown for a loop. I know I was! I studied so much for that test, and I'm glad that my studying has finally done me something other than stress. Naturally, I did not attend class today-- I never attend unless I have to turn in homework, because the class is pointless and the lecturer is tiring. Aaron told me, "when the tests were being passed around, I noticed that you got a 91 (!), and that alot of people made 40s and 50s. The average was around a 60, probably." I usually don't brag about my grades, but I think that in this case, I need a bullhorn.
After chem, I'm going straight home to take a nap, and then I'll cook myself some tocino, and I'll study for the upcoming physics test on Friday. I did not find out about this test until yesterday, when Abel asked me how I was going to study for physics.
I answered, "I think that as long as I review for it over the spring break, I'll be good."
And he said, "But the test is this Friday."
Oh SHiT.
I would be studying every waking minute right now, considering I haven't an inkling what the professor is discussing in lecture, but I have confidence in the review session tonight. After all, I'll be paying $30 for it. Oh well... we'll see what Friday brings!
By the way, I'm in the process of making a new blog template for myself-- please excuse this ugly blogspot.
