I will never understand fanatasy names. I get the elvish and dwarvish names. I get the weird human names. I do not get Tchakachakalla.

In chemistry on Friday:

Professor: Semimetals are what we call amphoteric because they can do either one.

Adriane sneeze-laughs. 

Semimetals are bisexual.

So the benefit of having 500 free pages a semester to print is that I cannot possibly use all of them on school-related work. 

So what am I doing? Why, printing off If You Are Prepared, of course!

-_- I would possibly kill him.

I think I may be in a bad mood.
...
I hate people.

It's the little things that get to me, you know... Excuse me for getting annoyed when I'm trying to talk on the phone and there are a bunch of retarded ASS HOLES behind me screaming and yelling. Excuse me for being bothered when you can't stop coughing in the middle of QUIET hours at the open lab, and the lady at the desk ASKS YOU TO LEAVE and you DON'T! 

But that's not the big deal. The big deal is that *I'm* the snob when I glare at the kid who is sitting only two chairs away from me, sneezing, coughing like a holy hag is losing its lungs, and WIPING HIS HANDS ON THE DESK! Excuse me? That's disgusting. And dangerous. The kid needs to put his head in a hazmat bag and inhale deeply for as long as it takes for him to pass out. Or inhale the plastic.

On the bright side, only roughtly 64 days until the end of the semester.

*slams head repeatedly*
Oh. My. GOD. Woman.
How have these people not learned volumes in Calc I? VOLUMES!?!?!?! This is insanity. They'd never heard of the washer method, or the disc method??!

-_- NOT COOL



...
It's times like these when I do the relatively simple math in my head. I'm playing close to $250 a credit hour for this class. Four credit hours makes it a $1000 class. 

Since I've learned half of these topics in my Calc I class (not an exaggeration; I have checked and rechecked both the syllabus and the book), we can easily conclude that the school owes me around $500 of that initial $1000.

I am still waiting on this payment.

So I walked out of Calc II this lovely morning not understanding anything that had just happened. Granted, falling asleep in class probably wasn't the best way to learn, but seriously.... she can't just go from integrating areas (which, by the way, I'm paying to "learn," even though we did that all the way back in AP Calc) to parametric curves.

Psh. Parametric curves. Who cares about those?

I have to program my calculator. And it's not working. So I'm going to make Jake make it all better...

I talked to Beth and Emily last night. It was amazing, hearing their voices again. I miss them both so much. I don't really have any friends here. There's Zach, obviously. But he doesn't blush all pretty-like when I make really crude jokes, that I don't even make anymore.....
Except Bethanie told me she was "doing wood" with Ethan..... I'll let you figure out what that means by yourself; I'm late for Econ.

For some reason, I smell bad.
So I'm skipping chemistry and going home.
Yup. You heard me.
I, Adriane Ware, am skipping chemistry, the most boring class I have, in order to go bathe (which, actually, I probably won't do).

And sleep. Sleep is amazing.

So yeah. I saw Nathaniel and Katie Rogo today on campus. I swear to God it was them. 

Tomorrow is going to be very long.

-_- Just so you all know... I have the most amazing boyfriend ever.

Quinnesec next weekend! Yay! I'm glad we're going up now, before it gets crazy cold. So excited to see the paper mill. And to be in the UP. Going to be fun, cold, educational and beautiful.

So after the meeting tonight, Nikki came up to me:
"Adriane would you like to go to Florida in January to the TAPPI conference?"
"... Will I be missing classes?"
"No, it's on the Martin Luther break."
"Then yes, yes I would."

And that's that.

Germany in four years.

And do you want to know the super sweet awesome thing? It's totally paid for. Next weekend all I have to do is pay for two on the road meals. Florida is all paid for. Germany is all paid for (after I get invited, of course. Dr. Raj and Dr. Abubakr are dying to invite me... they just don't know it yet.)

Adriane in Calculus II today: *mumblegrumble* unnngh
Teacher starts passing out graded tests- Adriane's ears perk up....
Adriane gets test back

-scanscanscan-
O.O
...no way...
mind-Adriane gets on knees and cries out in glorious triumph FINALLY!!!


100/100

I don't wanna grow up; I'm a Toys-R-Us kid.

So we did our fitness test yesterday. It was fine, but holy hell was it hot. We were supposed to run/walk on the track for 12 minutes, and I was able to run a mile, but then I had to start walking. ;_; So out of shape compared to a year ago. Then we did abdominal curls, which suck, by the way (killed my neck), and push ups and one sit and reach. I didn't mind any of it, but this morning I couldn't even get out of bed. It was ridiculous how sore I was. My arms and legs ache terribly and for some reason my jaw is killing me.

I woke up dizzy still, even after taking the medication. It wasn't as bad as it usually is, though, so maybe it's working. 
-_- <- skeptical Adriane. 

I am showing progress. Today I'm not going to eat lunch in my car and watch the parking police write tickets for 2 hours, no matter how fun it is.

No, I'll eat my lunch at the rec center, even though there are a bunch of very fit people watching and probably laughing at me. Meh.

So I got 36/50 on my Econ test. -_- psh. Who needs a 4.0 anyway? Not I, said the little Adriane. And then she continued. Just a 3.7, otherwise my beautiful scholarship will be taken away from me....

So I'm at the CEAS right now. A bunch of us are getting together for a resume workshop building thing. It was really quiet, and then Danielle and Nikki showed up. I love being a part of this, as I sit outside and update my ET diary. ^_^

I want to go home. 

So I love Mr. Perialas. He's awesome. I e-mailed him earlier this morning with some questions, and he's just so funny. >< This doesn't really help with the withdrawal I've been suffering from ...but oh well.
