Jun. 18th, 2002 11:02 amOkay. So for everyone playing the game at home, I just had an exam. Uh. The first two parts I am 99.999% sure I got all correct. The two essays on the other hand...
Let's just say it's tough to talk about the Eight-Fold Noble Path if you can only remember 5 of the steps and it's equally as hard to talk about Wu-Wei when you can't remember the separate parts of Wu-Wei that he was asking about.
In other words, the essays were craaaaaap. I may get some points on them because I did talk about some relevant stuff and I did get 5 out of 8 steps and related it to the Middle Way and gave some solid examples of Wu-Wei in everyday life.
But. I'm thinking I got about a 70 or so on it. Meh. That's the most points I can get if I totally bombed (aka no points at all) on the essays.
If I'm lucky, maybe I'll get a C.
I hate blanking during tests.
[sighs]
I'ma gonna go home now and sleep more.
Because yes.

Jun. 18th, 2002 03:01 pmThe township is starting a huge renovation project on the road I live on. It needs to be done very badly so we're not complaining about it. However, everyone is very upset about the fact they're tearing down all the trees on the street. Some of these trees are a good 80 to 100 feet tall and they're beautiful. The street is going to be so bare without the trees. Not to mention the whole environmental factor of it.
BUT.
Here's my point.
They have a wood chipper. I have an unnatural fascination with wood chippers. I want one so badly just so I can throw other, non-wood stuff in there. Once, I tried to convince Waryne, Joe, and Lee that we should all go in together and buy a cheap wood chipper that was in one of the trading papers you pick up at Wawa so we could throw their couch in it. Needless to say they weren't up for that since I was offering their couch. And the Malcolm in the Middle where Hal and the boys did that...oh that SO didn't help my wood chipper issues.
Waaaant to plaaaay!
I wonder if they'll let me throw in something like a bicycle or a feather pillow.
Oooh. Feathers everywhere.
BUT.

Jun. 18th, 2002 04:09 pmThe other day Nia was talking about Torengo's and how salty they are. We recently got a package of them in our house and since I am currently suffering from an extreme salt desire due to PMS, I decided to break into them.
They are the saltiest snacks I've ever had. I love it! Plus I've been eating them with this bourbon fudge sauce and coffee.
What a nice afternoon snack. :)

Jun. 18th, 2002 05:53 pmYou know, I could really go for a Trading Spaces marathon. I haven't gotten to watch it in ages since I've actually been busy on Saturday nights. I always miss the daytime shows because I'm at work. The one I saw today just wasn't enough to fulfill that Trading Spaces craving.
I'll even watch the ones with Alex and Dez!
Please! Send Trading Spaces quickly!
I'm going through withdrawl here, people!

Jun. 18th, 2002 11:38 pmThings I need to do before I go to bed tonight:
Read the packet on Confucius.
Take notes on the Recitification of Names since I'm giving a presentation on it tomorrow.
Take pills for the stabbing PAIN in my left arm.
Um. Dance?
Visit the Columbia College fiction writing page again and drool over the possibilities that I could have had if I had known about this school five years ago.
Cry.
Marvel over the wonder of my fan light working again after a month.
Try and ponder how Waryne has become the Stud of the East Coast.
Sleeeeeeep.
