Braindead.

So it's almost 6AM. 
I think I slept for about 2 hours... can't remember. All I remember was working... and then at around 1:30AM, I was feeling a bit drowsy and went to lie down. Next thing I know, it's 3AM and I still haven't finished my work. I was fully aware of what I had to do... and how much time I had to do it. But I just lay there... and I started feeling anxious. At around 3:45AM I started working. I actually got a majority of it done in an hour. I was especially proud of this one drawing I did of a CD–it was an improvement from my previous attempts. But when I went to open it, the file somehow got corrupted and I had to redraw it. Thankfully I got it done. I still have to do a few more things. I'm going to see how much I can get done in 30 minutes... then at 7AM, it's out the door and into the cold. I have to get to the school's computer lab and print out all of my stuff. If all goes well, I'll get to the school around 7:30AM and work in the lab for an hour before classes start. After that, I'll have 4 hours at my disposal. Probably will do my type homework. I'll be bringing my laptop with me to school to get the work done.. then I'll just transfer it to the school's computer. I really need a printer for my laptop... this is getting ridiculous. 

Well, back to work. I think I'm so exhausted that I'm way past feeling the fatigue. 

The End.

Three down, one to go...

So, an update to last post: I managed to finish my essay at 2:30AM! 30 minutes before the time I expected to finish. I'm pretty sure it's crap. I sincerely hope my professor will take pity on me. Just need a decent mark....*sigh* I can't believe how indifferent I am to marks now. My professors have been constantly telling: "marks don't matter... well, not entirely. You just need to get a 65% average to stay in the course" So now, I'm just aiming to pass. Well, "Asian Pass". I really need to get my act together. Seriously. Next week, there seems to be a lull in what seemed a bombardment of assignments. I only have 2 things due next week... one of which I am 50% done. That makes me EXTREMELY happy. 

Dood. My weekend is already PACKED. Friday, I have a driving lesson from 2-4 and then I'm going to my friend's halloween party until... God knows when. Saturday, I'm going coat shopping with me mum. Then later that night, I'm going to a birthday get together. Sunday, I have to attend a baptism and the after party. I'm not complaining.. I'm just in awe at how much stuff I'm doing. I guess it's a way to celebrate my survival of this week?

Oh so, good news. I talked to him. Mind you, it wasn't a full conversation. At least I talked to him, right? Anyways, this is how it went. My friend and I got dropped off at the school and started to walk to the bus stop. Then, I saw two of my friends and him walking too. The bus was already there so we all went in. So, I was actually planning to sit next to him today... bold, eh? Well, he was in one of the aisle seats... so the seats weren't really vacant. Anyway, I was walking past him. Then I suddenly turned around and went, "oh! happy birthday!" I'm pretty sure I was touching his shoulder while doing this... He thanked me and I then apologized for being a creeper. ^^;

We all got to Oakville one hour before class started. A bunch of friends and I talked for a while... Whenever they talked about something I didn't know too much about, I would talk to the girl sitting in the row behind us. The thing is, she seemed really tired and wasn't really in the mood to talk. After a while, my "set-up" friend called me over to talk to them. So talked to her and my other friend. For a while, he wasn't there. I was still talking to my two friends when he came back and I kind of talked to him. More like.. indirectly. But yeah, I recall him laughing at some of the stuff I said. Good sign. I think it's not so awkward to talk to him now, which is goood. I'm thinking I shouldn't rush or force things. If something will happen, then I should just let it happen. Maybe I'll have some classes with him next semester... who knows?

Annnyway, I'm going on a ski trip with a bunch of friends in early January! I reaaaaalllyy need to learn how to snowboard. I'm planning to learn... somehow in December because I'm done on the 2nd. I want to be a few levels above "n00b status" before we go on the trip. Aaaaalso, since I lack a significant other, I can just go out and board while the couples canoodle in the chalet. 

Aw man, I'm freezing. It's snowing outside... yes, snowing in October. I think I'm getting sick. But it may not just be the weather. I think it's due to the fact that I have been getting a maximum of 5 hours of sleep a night. The stress factor may also play a significant role in this too. But yet... my body is just out of whack. Other things have been happening too... but it may be a little too awkward to discuss. 

So I'm procrastinating again. I plan to get most of my work done before midnight. Then, I have to get up at 6:30AM and leave my house at 7AM to print out my work. My computer with the printer doesn't have Illustrator.... so I have to do all my stuff on my printer-less laptop and print it out at school.. which is open until 8:30AM because of classes. After that, I think I'll just chill in the library for 3.5 hours. Theeen, there will be 8 hours of design fun! (Being a tad sarcastic).  I'm honestly crashing as soon as I get home tomorrow. I don't want anything bad to happen during my driving lesson. 

Oh! So, while skipping lecture yesterday, I saw one of my old yearbook classmates. We talked for a while before tutorial started.. and it seems there's a lot of people that don't like the new yearbook class. Aaand, my friends who had reading week last week went to visit our old yearbook teacher. The thing is, they only came to steal some free programs off of him... I thought that was pretty dry. But whatever.

Alright, so off to homework.... eventually.

The End.

Stressed.

Alright, so I just got home from class about 15 minutes ago. 
I have 15 minutes of freedom until I have to chain myself to my computer for 8 hours. 
Yes... 8 hours. 
I have been procrastinating way too much and now I'm essay cramming.
Hm.. I hope I can pull off an essay in 8 hours. I think If I work really hard, I can get it done in 6.. even 5 hours. Then that way I can actually sleep. Well, if I don't sleep I would be working on this stupid thing for 11 hours. What's sad is I skipped a lecture to get some of this done. I got one topic for the most part covered.. just need to fix everything else. This is my strategy: write as much as you can, whatever it is, in the least amount of time possible. Then, skim over it a few times and edit it. I remember doing 2 essays in two classes last year.. so that's about 160 minutes. Less than three hours. I'm not expecting to do stellar on this thing... just enough to "Asian Pass". I really hope I can get this done.. I don't want to hand this thing in late because it'll be 10% deducted each day... and I know this will be marked low. 

So tomorrow is his birthday. *gasp*
I'm gonna try talking to him tomorrow. Hopefully that won't ruin his birthday.
I know I stated this in a previous entry... sorry to be redundant.
Have to fulfill my so-called "goal". haha.

Alright, I'm going to go... I apologize in advance for multiple grammatical errors and lack of entry. I promise I'll write a lot more Thursday night. Yes, the workload is still not decreasing as I have 2 more things due Thursday. 

Pray for me. Please.

The End

Ambitious Feat.

Wow, I've been blogging like crazy. 
Technically, this is my second post today.. but yeah, whatever. 
I'm going to try not to make a third post today in hopes that I will be diligently working on the pile of assignments I have yet to finish. So, to stick to my plan–and possibly not die in the coming days–I have to get 2, possibly even three (if I actually try) assignments done today. I think this is just final little ounce of procrastination I'm allowed to get away with. I really wish I was one of those students that would start on an assignment right when it's given, finish it a week before it's due and just chill... and sleep on time. I guess I was corrupted somewhere down the road. I was always like this, even in elementary. I really need to get my act together, seriously. But no matter how much I try to that, I always go back to procrastinating. Well, thinking about it now, I guess I'm not that bad. I have yet to pull an all-nighter. There's some people in my program that pull two all nighters in a row before an assignment is due. Like wow. I need sleep... even for an hour. I don't think I could manage not sleeping at all. I would have to chug... 10 coffees to get through the day. So far, I get about 2 a day. 

What else, hm... my room's a mess. I think I might clean up just a little bit so I won't go crazy. I also think I should make a playlist of calm music for that reason as well. The other day, I was working on an assignment while listening to Bad Religion... not a good idea. I got all hyper and shakey. I have no idea why... I guess the stress. 

I can't wait till this week is over!!! 
Hm.. I have no idea if the TAs at my school are going on strike... I'm hoping for one, but not hoping at the same time. I want one to catch up on all my readings and assignments... and just get a chance to LIVE stress-free. I don't want one because it'll push our semester back... and I want the semester to end in April. Design students at my school don't get exams for design courses... we just get exams/midterms for all the other ones we have to take. I only have exams for 2 courses... so I'm done really, really early. So far, I have literally more than a month of Christmas Vacation. Come to think of it, I guess I have to suffer now... and then I get to chill a lot earlier. I should count down the days until then. 

Alright, procrastination period over. Let the stress, insomnia and coffee chugging begin.

The End. 

Insomnia

I can't sleep. 
And yet again, I have nothing to show for staying awake. 
No one prayed for me, I suppose.
Maybe it'll help if I pray for myself.
I've been trying to figure out how much time I have to do all of my assignments. 
...I don't have much. 
I'm also trying to prioritize what should be done.

What's Due~
Monday: Colour Assignment (for natural science)
Tuesday: Fieldwork Assignment rough draft (Fine arts cultural studies... yeah.)
Wednesday: Essay for Critical Issues
Thursday: Digital Translation/Variation assignment–Book Design sketches, Finalized Layouts, Historical type sketches/ideas.
Friday: MY DAY OFF.... so far away. 

So my plan? I'm gonna get my Monday/Tuesday assignment done tomorrow. That way, I can work on my essay Monday morning (my natsci class is at 4PM)/night and Tuesday morning (class starts at 2:30PM)/Night. I doubt I'll be sleeping. 

Wow... just got an uber long ranty email from one of my friends. I responded with a long, kinda ranty email too!

My eyes hurt.

Good night/Good morning.

The End.

Party

Just got home from my godsister's party. She is the CUTEST kid ever!
Her mom, my godmother, is really awesome too. We had a random conversation about soda. So, at first I was reluctant to go because when I usually visit those relatives, I basically get judged on certain things... Anyway, it was costume party. I just dug up my old Ravenclaw costume from last year and went out the door. 

Now, I woke up late... around 2. I have no idea. I really need to wake up early. Anyway, we needed to be at the party by 4. My mom left me the task of wrapping the presents and writing in the card. Anyway, I still had to eat, get ready and do all of this stuff. When my mom came home, she was stressed and so was my dad. That added to more of the stress. Then, my dad ended up going to work so we had to bus to the party. Theeeeen, we had no idea where the house was. We walked around for about... 20 minutes. 

We finally got there, and everyone was dressed up. There were actually a lot of people there. But, there were very few kids so I had to join in on the games. Man, I totally got pwned by those kids. XD 

So the rest of the party was ok. The games everyone played made it less awkward to talk to other people. I think my godfather and godmother and her parents are coming here tomorrow to drop something off... but our house is kinda messy. We're trying to get my dad to pick up the stuff.  

Wow, this might possibly one of my shorter messages. I guess because I slept in till 2. I don't think I'm sleeping much tonight. I really, really, REALLY need to get some work done. I'm such a failure. *sigh* 

Oh yeah, I was talking to one of my uncles about school during the party. I was telling him about the increasing workload, how they're teaching us stuff that I seem to already know and how I don't really get to draw. Then he said, "ah yeah, that's why I don't like Graphic Design... they teach you stuff like (I don't quite remember what he said in between)  and  typography...so that's kinda boring..." I was thinking hey! I like typography! 

Yeah, that's about it. I actually need to change... because I'm still in a costume. And then do work. Pray for me, so then I actually do something productive. 

The End.

We're Stuck Inside our own Machines.

So I woke up really late today. Around noon. I was meeting up with a friend around 3PM so I wasn't too worried (as opposed to the day before). Instead of doing work, I sat around and surfed around the internet. After about an hour after that, I decided to get ready. 

I went to wait outside  for the bus and for some reason, the bus was on the other side of the road at 2:45PM. I was looking one way to see if the bus was coming (the way the bus usually comes). I heard a "honk", turned around and saw the bus. I stared for about a second and the bus driver was waving me over. The bus was filled with all these high school students. I barely fit into the bus. The ride to the mall took a little long because of traffic. The construction near my house is really annoying. 

So I met up with my friend when he finished his shift at work. We walked around for a bit and decided to visit our other friend who also works at the mall.  I swear, people live in that building. There's not one time where you go to Promenade and not see people you know. When we were there, we saw another pair of our friends... who are going out. They're very touchy-touchy. Awkward, much? After some chatting, we decided to leave the store because we were literally loitering. Apparently they were all going out for dessert tonight? I have homework, not going. 

So when I usually hang out with this friend, we basically sit/walk around and talk for a long period of time. Today, it was 3.5 hours. Last time it was 3. Anyway, we actually talked about STUFF. He's kind of totally in love with one of my other "friend"s (Let's put quotation marks cause I'm not so sure if we're friends anymore). And he would mostly talk about her... Well, he didn't really talk about her today. An incident happened during the summer... now I'm thinking he's trying to get over this whole thing. I told my friend about him and weirdly enough, they used to go to elementary school together. He told me that he was a really nice guy... and didn't seem shy/quiet. But then he added, "hm... maybe he's just really shy with girls".

So I'm planning to learn guitar again! I feel so bad for the acoustic standing idle in my room. I'm probably going to look up lessons online plus I have a book. Fuuun! My friend said he'll help me out so yeah, cool. 

This is a random thought. I don't understand how people can get into a relationship so easily... and so randomly. I've just thought about this since Thursday. Two people in my program are "unofficially" going out now... And they just met this month. I guess... because it was so unexpected, it was more likely? I suppose because I expect it, or hope to expect it, that nothing happens. I tend to overthink... alot. Surprise! I suppose that habit affects how I act, naturally. So I come up with all the presumptions and that hinders me. Sometimes, when I find out something about a person that I don't like, that changes my opinion of that person... and I may not want anything to do with them after that (That depends on how severe that "thing" is. Like if they do drugs, are extreme jerks or just... uber fail). I remember when I was in Japan, my friend and I were sitting at the table in my Uncle's apartment... and my aunt's friend was there. She was telling us all this stuff; kind of telling our horoscope. But anyway, she was telling me all this stuff about myself that were extremely accurate. Then she told me, that I need to change my attitude a bit (like, when I don't like someone or something, I quit) or else I won't get a boyfriend. I agree... that and the fact that I'm pretty shy. Wow... long thought. I'm over thinking right now, aren't I?

Anyway, off to doing homework. *sigh*

The End.

P.S. I messaged him on facebook. I'll probably get his reply next month. haha.

Long Day...

I am sooo cold right now.
I'm pretty sure the heater's on but I feel like a popsicle....Time for a pillow fort! 
So today was interesting. I was supposed to wake up at 7AM to finish up my homework. But I should've known that I would constantly push the "snooze" button. I ended up waking up at 9:30. I had to meet up with a friend at around 10.... so I was kinda screwed. 

Interesting/random incident: while blow-drying my hair, I hear a knock on the door....it was my uncle. He was at my house because his car was running out of gas and he forgot his wallet... yeah. Anyway, he picked up my friend and brought us to our old high school where we were gonna meet another friend. Another interesting thing: when my friend and I went into our yearbook teacher's classroom, the teacher thought we wanted to visit him... it just so happens our friend was in that room too. While talking to our teacher, another teacher walked in. Now, I never had this teacher in my life. I actually started talking to him after I graduated. Anyway, he walks in and goes, "hey!" *jabs me in the back with his elbow* "oh, sorry...you were in the way!" (that made my back sore for the whole day, douchebag). 

So after chatting with Mr. Back-jabber, we went to talk with our friend. He came up to us and gave my other friend a hug. When he came to me, the hug was....long. Mind you, that, along with the sentences to follow may be a result of over-thinking and a whole incident involving this friend last year. So, at one point I was talking about school and all of a sudden, he starts stroking my leg....and then he did it again! So.. in my head, I was thinking "omg...why are you touching my leg?!?!?" 

After our friend left, we ended up hanging out with our yearbook teacher. Man, he is SO much nicer after he's not your teacher. It's weird. So we basically hung out in his little office thing and talked about school, yearbook etc. Aw man, I really don't like the new yearbook class. They all look like a bunch of slackers. We basically heard them cramming outside of his office. Some of them asked him if the test was easy and if he could make it all multiple choice. Like, wtf. Go study. 

At around 11:45, we left the school and went to the mall. I passed by the convenience store and bought some candy for my friend. She was really upset yesterday, so I wanted to cheer her up. I ended up buying skittles because they remind me of rainbows... and those make people happy, right? 

So I get to school and we spent more than a half hour watching videos about different designers. I hope I remember that site... they were really coooool. Very inspirational stuff. For the rest of the class, we got critiqued and worked.. kinda. I spent most of the class talking with my friends. Good Stuff. We ended up getting out of class early because we technically didn't get a break. So... I had more than an hour to finish my homework for the next class.

Oh yeah! So, he finally added me back on facebook. haha. 
It took him about a week to do that. So I'm guessing facebook isn't the best way to contact him. Not too long ago, after reading this blog, one of my best friends said she'll sit with someone else on the bus next week so it'll look like I have to sit with him. Aw man, awkward. I might fall asleep... which would kinda suck. But yeah, my "set-up" friend isn't really setting me up. She does more wishful thinking than action.... so I get my hopes up. Apparently my other friend's gonna "motivate" me. I guess that would be better... I'd get it over with at least. Stalker moment: his birthday is next week... I hope meeting me again won't ruin it. Joke! ...kinda. haha.

My second class was pretty useless. More critiques then we got an in-class assignment that I finished in an hour... It was basically done to make me more familiar with Indesign. I lived off indesign in yearbook... so I was more than familiar with it. My "set-up" friend's seat was kinda taken so she sat across from me. We basically whispered stuff to each other and made faces. We're so mature. Oh! What was really funny was what happened after class. So we walk out of the building, and my friend says, in a southern accent, "oh... we have to cross the streeeet". I respond (also in a southern accent) "but, it's daaark outsideee", her: "let's hold hands!", me: "okay, where your haaaand at?" ....then random phrases in other accents. By the time we got to the car, we were laughing way too hard.  

So I thought I would sleep early today... but alas, my macbook pro has lured me into it's metallic, glowing trap with youtube videos, MSN and blogging. I swear, by 4th year, I'm going to be blind. Haha funniest thing, I was watching a kevjumba video and I literally LOL'd really loudly at midnight.. I'm gonna get slapped tomorrow.

Wow...I really need to make these entries shorter... I feel like I write a chapter a day. Aw man. Okay.. back to MSN and youtube! 

The End.

P.S. No typography rant today. I didn't actually learn anything in class. 
P.P.S. My friend was really touched by my skittles gift. It just so happens Skittles are her favorite. Score!

Wednesday Morning

Alright, post #3! 

I'll probably be posting once or twice a day... So much to type. 
I realized that I have a tendency to type "..." when typing sentences. I really should watch out for that, because all those years of learning language power and suffering for hours to learn grammar would all go to waste.

So, I went to Oakville today. I woke up at 5:30... after about 3 hours of sleep. I got all my stuff arranged before I went to bed.. so all I had to do was take a shower, get dressed and eat. I have to shower in the mornings. It's the only thing besides coffee that wakes me up. I mean, I could sleep in and stuff, but I find to be more tired. Especially with less than 8 hours of sleep. So I went into the shower and it was soooo warm. I literally stood there for a while, doing nothing. It was freezing in my house (well, I get cold very easily) so a warm shower was needed. After that, I got ready. I found that I still had more than 30 minutes to do stuff before my ride got to my house. 

Remember when I said I would pursue some sort of relationship with him? Well, it didn't turn out so well today. More like... uber fail. When my friend and I got to school, we didn't see anyone. We found that everyone was inside one of the buildings because it was freezing. So we stayed there until the bus came. So, to date, I have always sat with one of my best friends on the bus to Sheridan. I actually saw him before boarding the bus and when I got on. I saw him sitting by himself. Behind him were two of my other friends, one of which is trying to set me up with him. Right when I got on the bus, my friend called/waved me over to sit next to her. I felt kind of bad for him because he always seems to be a third wheel. The two always sit together and then he just tags along. I was surprisingly awake this morning. Well, my friend and I were. We talked for the whole bus ride which was about an hour and a half.  My "set-up" friend was talking to me for a bit mid-way through the bus ride and automatically pointed at him, smiling widely. Once we got off the bus, I walked with a few friends from school. Looking ahead, I started to feel bad again... the whole third wheel thing. So plan number one—talking to him near the bus stop—was foiled, pretty much. 

At school, we all hung around at the foyer of Sheridan because the doors were locked. I think I'm everyone's entertainment at school because I'm so random and awake in the mornings. So, I was busy entertaining my friends when I saw my two friends and him talking close to us. I totally could have walked by and talked to them... but that didn't happen. A security guard had to unlock the doors and we finally trickled into the lecture hall. You know when you're going somewhere in one direction, and there's a few other people that trickle in from the other? Yeah, so he was kinda beside me at one point. We both stopped, waiting for the other to go. I let him go and he did that thing—where you over exaggerate trying to sneak by someone, which was kinda cute, really—and thanked me. That was all the talking we did between each other the whole day. 

So enough about my failed attempts at pursuing someone...for now (I know I'll go back to it).  
We got a part of our assignment back today. We had to provide a thesis and bibliography for an essay. I got mine back and... got a really bad mark. The reason? I apparently did not have a thesis. I had actually printed the thesis on the other side of the paper but it was too small to actually notice—my bad. During class, I was yet again between two people who literally fell asleep. We were in the second row of the lecture hall... it was obvious the professor would know. Critical Issues in Design is actually a really fun course. One of my favorites, I'd say. The professor is really cool too. He can totally keep people's interest early in the morning. But yeah, it kind of bothers me that people fall asleep during lecture. At least site relatively close to the back and sleep so it would be less likely for you to get noticed. I think I might sit with "set-up friend" next week... it'll be killing two birds with one stone. 

So after the lecture ended, I decided to talk with the professor and tell him about the whole thesis dilemma. To divert from the story a little bit, there's this guy in our program who is very, very good-looking. I called him Edward because he reminded me of Edward Cullen. Anyway, this is going sound so weird. But he was talking to the professor before me and I was just looking at him and found that he has really bad posture. On a more perverse note, he doesn't have a butt. So random. Anyway, back to my conversation with the professor. I explained the whole thing about the thesis being on the back of the page and he literally went, "oh s***! I can grade this again for you, if you like". Then I told him, "oh well, after your explanation of the assignment this morning, I find that this thesis is too broad". He then said, "oh, well, then just re-do it, email it to me and I'll remark it". He totally went up 1 MILLION cool points right there. 

So after class, my best friend and I took the bus home. It takes us about an hour and a half of bussing then a 20 minute walk to get home. This is the one  with which I discussed my loneliness. So we've developed "goals". My goal, apparently, is to just talk to him and develop some relationship with him. While walking home, my friend was telling me how him and I would actually make a good couple. Then I went into the whole thing about him being a third wheel with my two other friends and how I really felt bad. I actually want to be his friend. I know how it feels to kinda hang around and not be as fully involved as the two other people. So, for now, I just want to be his friend. I don't like jumping straight into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. I need to know the person first and then see if anything happens. 

Mini-rant: I have so many assignments I have to finish tonight. I'm not sleeping in or doing my work during the morning because I'm meeting up with friends. Maybe I won't sleep.

So I pretty much told you my whole day... in excruciating detail. Sorry to bore you.

The End.

Still Awake!

So it's past 1AM and I'm currently waiting for my trial version of Adobe Indesign CS3 to finish downloading... it's taking forever. I have already proved that I'm addicted to blogging. I just made this account a few hours ago.. and I'm already at 2 posts for today. In terms of work, I have a few sketches done...more like, 6. I am so fail. 

For some reason, I'm not at the point of breaking  down yet. I really think this is some way my body reacts to stress. I tend to avoid things I know will take time to do.... but then I leave it to the very last minute. Which is so bad. There's just so much to do.. school... and all the other stuff people would rather be doing. I mean, I LOVE my program... it's just that there's so much work. I'm sure it wouldn't be so much if I actually started early... but I guess that's just how I work. I find that most of my best work was taken out of my ass the night before it was due. I bring this upon myself...But I'll try to work early, I swear. 

I'm off msn now because everyone got off. So... no reason to stay online. 
I was discussing this with one of my friends... I feel kinda lonely. 
To quote her, "in university, loneliness ENGULFS you!...I feel so inexperienced."
But yeah, my "husband" is looking really enticing right now. This might sound crazy, but I get these weird, gut feelings about stuff. When ever I talk about him or think about him, I get it. The thing is, I'm not sure if it's a bad or good thing. Hopefully it's a good thing...  because it would suck if it wasn't. There's also theories/happenings related to him that make me think stuff... but this post is getting really long as it is.

I have a low self-esteem... that's why I can't talk to certain people. No matter how much you'd like to go forward, there's always that little thing in your head holding you back. But you know, when people start talking about a certain someone a lot... you start to develop your own ideas about that person. According to my sister, "you hear all these good things about him and you tend to create this idea of him... when you meet him, don't fall in love with him." I don't think I have yet... I'm not the type to fall in love with someone right after I meet them... I have a feeling, though, that I probably will when I get to know him better. But yeah, I guess I'll pursue it... I'll see him tomorrow. 

My headache still isn't gone. It's hurting a lot more. It has to be the computer. 
I'm sleeping in about 30 minutes... My friend told me that it's best to sleep with UNEVEN hours... My sister confirmed that theory with talk of REM cycles and such. I think it's all psychological... but yeah, I'm starting to think it. I sleep either 3, 5, 7, or 9 hours now... I think I do fine with 5 hours of sleep. I only slept 5 hours a night last week....and I'm normal...kinda. 

So I have found that I have to exit Safari to finish up my indesign download. 
I guess I'll do some sketches until it's done... then off t0 bed. 

The End.

P.S. Geek Moment: Wow, I really like how the numbers on Georgia go below the baseline of the actually letters. I wish I knew how to type small caps... because when I type in all caps next to a number ex. 1AM... it's not in line with the number... which is a TYPE CRIME! 

Okay... Sleeping now. I have made... 6 more sketches. Which is 12 in total... yay me! *claps* Try to figure out who says/does that and you will get a cookie.

Procrastination *sigh*

Alright, so here goes... 
This is the fruit of 2 hour procrastination. 
I think I should be stressing out.. but surprisingly, I'm not.
Today had so much potential to be a work day...
I didn't have class today... 

So I had a midterm exam yesterday. 
Now, I have a pile of assignments due this week... 
During the time I was supposed to be studying, I was doing other things. 
I say "other things" because I was doing everything BUT studying.
This should be some sort of illness or something.
I am fully aware of all the things I have to do... but I do nothing about it.
Accomplishments this week? I cleaned 60% of my room.
You can now officially see my bedroom floor and 75% of my desk.
Thank you, thank you, I'm so proud. 

I believe I'm currently having a headache due to caffeine withdrawal. 
I discovered, while in Japan, that I was addicted to caffeine since I was three. 
I know... scary. 
Well, it's either caffeine withdrawal or me hunched over on a computer. 
Probably a combo of both.
Ever since I got my laptop, I've been attached to it like it's my child or something. 
And I have done 20% work... 80% everything else on it.  *sigh*

I'm gonna be a geek for a second.
I kinda wish this blog had other fonts. 
Like Garamond, or Caslon..maybe Helvetica? I do like Helvetica.. ultralight.
I've decided to write in a serif font because, apparently, it's easier to read. 
That is my typography lesson for today. 

So I'll be signing off, need to actually do some work. 
And besides, I have to get up at 5:30 in the morning to go to Oakville.
I also believe I will be seeing the person I am apparently fated to marry. *gasp* 
I'm so creepy...
