Why did I use to love surveys so much?

Anyway here's an update: I'm in the midst of my first semester at UCF here in sunny ol' Orlando. I'm taking four classes: Comp II, Anthropology, College Algebra, and Chemistry. I only like Anthropology, which makes sense since that's my major. I like my roommate, I like my friends, I like my college, I like my life. I'm not lame and survey-obsessed like I was a few months ago, and I will now actually be writing real entries IF I write any at all.

You're welcome, livejournal.

I don't know why the fuck livejournal made that so small, but if I try to make it any bigger it fuzzes out. Just click on it to get the actual size of it. >:[

Also the cranberries thing isn't totally random; I was eating a cranberry scone. Jerks.

So Spring Break has officially begun, and already it looks like it's going to suck. I guess that's all I really have to say on that.

This afternoon I went to the library before volunteering and, since I had time to burn, once I found Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines, I sat at a table and started to read Alaska, which was very good(I finished it about an hour ago). But AGH I couldn't believe the inconsiderate people at the library. To my left were two people apparently having some sort of business meeting--LOUDLY--and at one point one of them exclaimed "Wow! I never would have thought to meet HERE", to which I angrily thought "THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S A LIBRARY AND YOU SHOULD BE QUIET HERE RAAARRRRGGGG". To my right was an old woman sitting in an armchair, dozing off behind a magazine, which was okay until she fell deeply asleep and started snoring very loudly. The weirdest thing about that woman was that she occasionally would wake up, and then fall back asleep. She didn't look homeless. Why was she sleeping at the library? It was just very inconsiderate of her.


Anyway I'm quite tired and keep blinking a lot, for a long time each time, so I'm going to head to bed.


In the spirit of Looking for Alaska, my favorite last words: 
"Now I can finally cross the Shifting Sands"
-L. Frank Baum, referring to the impassable desert surrounding the Wonderful Land of Oz.

Good night.

 

( Work, you dang cut! )</div>( This cut better work. )</div>( A picture survey! :O )</div>


EDIT: rofl I guess the cut DID work! Awesome!

My friend Jennifer is in the hospital with pneumonia, so Destiny and I are going to visit her tomorrow and I figured we should bring her something. Since neither of us has any money, we decided to make her some flowers, which was an AMAZIN idea and I got this really awesome idea in my head and I was feelin' really creative and then AGH. I am just too darn ambitious for my own good. I'll just draw her a picture tomorrow during Physics, in addition to the one flower that I managed to get done(I had planned to get two done). I just always think that a really complicated idea is going to be SO PERFECT and SO AMAZING, and then it's like "oh I could have done this about ten times more simply, and it would have looked exactly the same/better", but by then it's TOO LATE.
But that's okay.


Oh, and my dad didn't end up getting that job in Lake Mary, so that's a bust. But that's okay, too. I'm still going to UCF next year; my parents just won't be as close as I hoped they would be.

( Surveys surveys surveys )


So I am officially telling UCF that I am enrolling for Fall '09! :O Hooray! And I got the Knight's Achievement Award, which is for out-of-state students, and it's $3,750 each semester as long as I'm an out-of-state student, with a 3.0 and whatnot yeah yeah easy. Except I'm only going to be an out-of-state student for the first year, because my parents are moving back to Florida as soon as my dad gets hired there. But I'm sure I'll be offered an in-state scholarship then, and i think I'll be eligible for Bright Futures, as well? I don't know. Either way, hooray! 

And yes I am pretty upset that my parents are now moving back to Florida, after two years of this shit at this crappy ass school in this terrible town, but whatever. IThere's no use being upset about it for long, anyway. What's done is done. Haha the worst part is that there's this one job in particular that my dad applied to, in Lake Mary, which looks like the job he's most likely to get. So they will be in almost EXACTLY the same place they were before we moved.

I kind of tinted it orangey. Does that look okay? I think this might be as far as I take this drawing. I like it. :)

So I've been trying to draw a real person(like, not a stick figure person), and it looks pretty good so far, but I CANNOT get the lips to look right.

I scanned that a while ago. Since then, I've added hair and changed the lips and nose. I also made her thigh and butt bigger, and added collarbones, but I've been concentrating mostly on the facial features, and AGH I am terrible at faces. And hands. But I haven't started her hands yet. Actually, I don't even know what I'm going to have her doing with her hands yet. BLARGH I like to draw but it is HARD.

( Ugh my god Oreos are delicious. )

( Oh man I have eaten like twenty oreos not even exaggerating. )

I didn't do my career paper for Oceanography that's due today. I also didn't shower this morning. I am hoping to stay home from school, but I don't know when my dad is leaving for work, since he got home from work at like 9 last night. DX

It got all fuzzy when I put it on livejournal for some reason, but I think that makes it look better.

Some sushi would be DELICIOUS right now! I swear if someone just like, appeared at my front door with some sushi, I would take it and eat it even if I didn't know where it came from. 

So last night I had just about the most exciting dream I've ever had in my entire life. Oh yeah, I dreamed that I was arranging all of the bowls and glasses and everything so they would all fit in the dishwasher. I swear to god, I think that was the ONLY dream I had all night, which means that my brain devoted eight hours of sleep to just imagining there being too many bowls and glasses to all fit in the dishwasher without some creative tessalation. I spelled that word wrong. Someone spellcheck that word for me.

It may or may not actually be 100 truths.

Graduation is May 28th. That is just three months and one week away. That is a ridiculously short amount of time. It's really really exciting, and I absolutely cannot wait to graduate so that I can leave this town and all the people who pretend to like me, and start my real life in a great town with people who actually like me, at a college that is going to be amazing. At the same time, however, I am so incredibly intimidated by the thought of graduating. Of losing the schedule that I have been following for the past twelve years. Of living on my own, without my mom with me. Haha, it's so lame but I am going to miss my mom more than anything or anyone when I go to college. I don't know what I'm going to do without her. I'll be the loser calling her mom every night to talk about her day with her. :) But I'm totally okay with being that loser. I don't want to be like my sister in that I hardly ever call or answer my parents' calls or come and visit. I want to still have a life in which my parents are relevant. Maybe it's just because I haven't actually hung out with anyone who lives in Brunswick, but I enjoy hanging out with my mom more than anything else right now. I'm going to miss her a lot, and I really hope my dad gets this job in Lake Mary so that they live close enough that I can see them a lot when I'm at UCF. 

I'm already thinking of all the things I want to bring to and buy for my dorm :). Brittney has to get her acceptance letter like RIGHT NOW so that I can start planning with her. >:]

The scanner cut off a little at the bottom, but you get the idea. Also I'm only posting this here because I couldn't figure out how to put it in a comment.

( Bucket list )

That was a TERRIBLE bucket list. I have done NONE of those things. >:[

I was gonna dingaling a little in here, but I need to take a shower and get ready for school. Maybe later. ;)
