Ok, so posting your life where anyone can read it is probably a bad idea. So I am starting a new journal where I post my life so that only a select few can read it. I don't have my own hate group or anything (I'll never be as cool as Gena) but it's not helpful when my safe venting place with the friends I hardly ever see becomes something I need to constantly apologize for. So, if you'd like to add me my new LJ is idontcommute. Add me and I'll probably add you back if you aren't already on my list.

I've got the worst headache imaginable. Algebra will do that to a person, I guess. There has been a string of staying up late days. I stayed up late Friday to hang out with someone, Saturday night to hookah with Katya, Sunday night to work on non-school work, and last night getting help from the Jason. I'm half tempted to keep it going except I have 9 o'clock class MWF. Sorry Uri.
It's so cold in this city. I think I'm getting sick. I don't know who broke my state, but you better have it fixed in like 2 weeks. I will not tolerate this nonsense for much longer. ARG!
Some people in this library have really big hair. Speaking of hair, I cut mine. No one noticed. It was sad. If anyone I like is comming into the NOLA area for Mardi Gras, let me know so I can see you. Erin will not be here this year. Sad times.

9:28 am - ambiguities

It is good to realize when arrows are mappings and not implications.
So it's my second day of class, and I have nothing to do. I only have 1 T class, and it starts at 6 tonight. I may be getting a rather sweet tutoring job. A 1st grader needs help with reading and Ms. Gitlin recommended me. Lord only knows why, since I'm illiterate, but it beats whoring myself out for statistics. I don't know how much I'll be paid yet, but with the recommendation it seems it will be above $20/hr. Ms. Gitlin didn't seem surprised when she heard another tutor was getting $40 or $50. That's like... pizza every night.
My diet resolution, the one where I resolved to not diet, has been going really well. I'm gonna pass on the new year memes, nothing interesting happened to me last year.
I really do use this thing to prove I'm not dead, dont I?

So, I'm in california until January 6th because I'm illiterate. There hasn't been much to do, but thats nearly what I'd have been doing at home. Only I would be laying next to my big stack o' christmas gifts.
This whole people don't deep fry everything feel of healthy life really is disconcerting. People eat fruit, and are afraid of radio waves and such. I'm always comforted by the fact that I do enough unhealthy things that I'll die before side effects begin to show. But then, I can't walk up a hill without getting winded, so perhaps I should change my lifestyle a bit. Oh wait, there are no hills in new orleans, problem solved. So yea, I'm bored.
Jaggard let me in his class. In the sense that he said, if you find a way in, you're welcomed to join. Now I need to find how one gets into these classes.
I am looking forward to a semester of peace and studying. I liked my GPA this semester, I hope I can keep it up.

Wedding and two finals down. Final project and 2 finals to go. Almost halfway there, already, envy me.

6:20 am - I need my stupid Drivers
|
So, I'm grumpified. I have a final project due at 3:30, but it needs to be done at 1 because I'm gonna be maid of honor at Katya's Wedding. Ok, I'm really just a witness, need to sign something and leave. I have no idea where my ID is, though.
Went to Katya's party last night, it wasn't the kind of thing I'm comfortable at, and I felt the need to make it clear to people that I am not interested in becomming friends with them. Just from body language, didn't tell anyone off, but all but like 4 people there probably think I'm a bitch.
So, I need to finish my project on Mr. Sticky, which involves some more coloring.
off I go.

First final down 2.5 to go! I have to go give the chirrens their final today. It's so ridiculous, they're 7! And, in any case, what am I gonna do? Fail them in Young Scholars. This is very silly.
There will be a math program next year, and I get to be a part of it. That's cool, right?
Yes.
If any Tulane students want to join, you can do it for federal work study monies. That's a good deal, right?
My Algebra final got pushed back to its original place, Saturday. I think I'll do fine. Looking over the old qualifiers it's really laughable. And Psyc. Yea, Psyc.
All of you who hate me for my lazy final schedule, just remember, I've taken 24 hour semesters, and I spent over 120hrs with elementary and secondary students this semester alone. I deserve a break.
My Erin will be leaving soon and never comming back :( well except for that not comming back part.
So much is happening.
current mood:  worried

So I have been consumed by this education thing for a whole semester. Next semester it looks as if I'll have 2 one day a week classes and a MWF with no service learning. But I'll still be doing MORE service learning than this semester. 110 hrs. Hopefully it will all be at the same school, Audubon Montessori would be nice, and at most I can have something significant due once a week in each of those classes. I'll be taking 18 hrs because I need a Philosophy course to satisfy my last floating requirements. I really really really want to take Algebra, but I'd need to drop classroom management, I will go talk to Dr. Mckee about this.
I finished my philosophy of education paper, where I tried to make sure I wrote crap I believe in. ( A list of what I have left before San Fransicico:Collapse )
It's not that bad, and there is always the thought of snow to hold me over. I fly out at like 9:30 sunday night and get there at like 1am. Since I normally go to sleep at like 7, my only fear is missing my flight between Atlanta and San Fran.

Erin and muppet visited today. They are the most functional disfunctional people I know. They acknowledge what they want, and do their best to get it. It's a good system, I'd like to try it at some point.
I'm headed to Sanfrancisco this christmas. Staying for a hair shy of 2 weeks in california, and I'm not terribly sure why. I just didn't want to be here, so I'm getting away and not actually leaving my problems behind. I may actually be making them worse. But hey, there may be snow.
I want a back rub.

I just discovered things are not like I thought they were, and that I've been beating myself up over nothing.
I'm trying to find a snow filled place to stay for christmas. My family takes the holiday thing way to seriously. Its frightening really. I got a new hat and sweater today. This is very exciting, I love hats. I had a favorite hat when I was a freshman, I lost it and could never find it. It was a great hat.
Got my nails and eyebrows done today. Waiting for Zac to get back because that's all there is to do now.
Hope your lives are more interesting than my own.

Ugh. I hate scheduling. It's done though, 23 hours of glorious classes so that senior year can cease to be. lesigh. Lets hope grad school is better.
I learned how to make pumpkin pie today, and got my mom the best present, EVER.

Bah, I hate da chirrens.
I got a playboy magazine in the mail today. Not like playboy playboy, but their merchandise catalogue. I'm embarrassed to say I looked through it, and even more embarrassed to say I'm considering getting something. The jeans are really cute though.
I finally met the math teacher I'll be shadowing. She's really scarey, I don't like her =/.
and I'm tired of dressing up every day. and getting up early! grrr.
current mood: sore

Today I read a post from one of those people who isn't gifted with an ability, but with the disire to have it that really makes you want to punch them in the face. I shall forever think of her as the Rudy of mathematics. If anyone actually liked that movie, perhaps you would like this girl. I doubt it though. I can't really think of anyone who tried to learn about classical syntax of proofs. I don't know why this pisses me off so much, but it does. It really really does.
In other news: I'm gonna try to take care of plants. The ones in my fishless fish tank. Yes, I am unable to keep fish alive. I would like to offer a moment of silence for Huey Duey Louey Squishy, and a little prayer that Scrooge will see tomorrow.
Still no hurricane. More on this as it developes.

I gotta say, I hardly noticed Ivan. I know that some homes in alabama have been destroyed and people probly have been killed. But there isn't even a puddle outside my house. I would call the weather last night "fabulous". If so many others weren't suffering because of it, that is.
I'm alive. New Orleans lives on. Come back people.

Ya know how sometimes, you work on a problem set for a class, and get stuck and spend like 45 min on ONE problem? Ya know how it gets you pissed off and you go work on something else for a while? You know how you come back take one look and just say "fuck it's only for FINITE groups!"
Dammit.
