Yay! I have the internet back! My building lost power last Friday during a storm and the internet was the only thing not to come back on. We didn’t get the internet back till Monday afternoon. It was only my building that lost internet on the whole campus. Great, right?
Algebra is still a struggle. I’m going to go over to Rob’s house later and work on some homework. We have online homework that is due September 1st. I’ll work on it with Rob and then turn it in when I get back to my place.
The food situation is getting better. I have fruit and vegetables now, so I’m feeling better. But I’m still eating too many carbohydrates. An example of what my diet was: toast for breakfast, sandwich for lunch and pasta for dinner. Soooo much bread! But now I’m going to start cooking chicken with my pasta. Yay!
The life in the apartment is going ok. Unfortunately Sarah and Sam haven’t taken their parts in keeping the apartment clean. It’s fallen on me and Rachel to take out the trash and wash the dishes. And no one can actually sit in the living room because there are games, DVDs and fabric everywhere. It’s going to get on my nerves very soon and I may confront Sarah and Sam about it. I already made them move everything off the main couch so that we can sit on it. I don’t know how long that’s going to last however…
No more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! I have had tons of them since I’ve moved in. I’m so tired of them. The last one I ate almost made me sick. This weekend I’m going to go grocery shopping. I’m going to pick up some salad stuff and meat and fruit. And mini raviolis are really nasty. So, I’ve been primarily surviving off of low-protein and high carbohydrates diet for the past week. Not really good for my energy levels.
But other than the food, everything else is going well. My Computer Art class is really neato. I’ve already started on one of the projects. I am going to make it Japanese, with a geisha and other Japanese motifs. So far it’s turning out ok. I’m hoping that while in the class I can learn stuff to apply to the cards. ^^
Math is going ok. I’m not going to get tested on the review stuff. Yay! None of the review stuff made sense to me. But what we’ve done so far in the classroom has made sense. I’m going to try to go to SI meetings. It’s a class/study session taught by a student or teacher’s aide. I dunno if it will help, but it wouldn’t hurt to try. I have a lot of free time since one of my classes is online; so there’s no reason not to try. ^^
I’m going to work more on my Computer Art project. Yay!
There are guys next door keeping me up. I’m tired and I’ve got algebra tomorrow, so I want to get some sleep. Normally I wouldn’t care about going over there to tell them to be quiet. But they’re big black guys. I went to the RA’s to see if she would deal with them, but she wasn’t there. Grrr… So now I’m awake and cranky.
I’m also watching the show on Animal Planet with the animal police. Makes me madder. People do bad things to sweet animals. Grrr…
I’m going to work on my website now. See if I can fall asleep eventually.
