Tidal Wave.

I've been updating pretty frequently. I guess it's because of school. Lotsa stress and alot more things happening that I can ramble on about...


So I'm getting better! Thank God. I'm still coughing every now and then but I don't feel like dying anymore so it's all good.


School is moderately killing me. Well, I'm sure if I didn't procrastinate and sleep past midnight, I wouldn't be saying that. I suppose because I only have 3 days of class and a considerable amount of time for me to slack between each class. I really should be doing homework during that time... well, I need to get my priorities straight, really.


I've slowly but surely become obsessed with graphic novels. I need to look into some more stuff. I used to subtly appreciate the comic genre when I was a kid. Well... more like, I would watch X-Men and Spiderman on Saturday mornings. And I vaguely recall having a Batman action figure as my prized possession when I was four years old. I guess my obsession with the Watchmen film was kind of like a gateway into a pending obsession with comics. Too bad I didn't know enough when Fanexpo was in town. Oh wait... I spent practically $300 on stuff. Never mind.


Unfortunately my lack of funds can't really support my obsession at the time. So I'll just have to deal with borrowing some graphic novels from the library which surprisingly has A LOT of stuff.


I really need to learn how to save some money. I think I've been doing okay so far. There's little changes that I've been gradually making. Surprisingly I actually have cash in my wallet for more than one day. That's a good sign.


I'm still feeling funny about some stuff. And I don't mean because I'm sick. It's like I have this sense of defeat mixed with anxiety, anger, loneliness and doubt. Yeah, that about sums it up. I think things are changing too much or moving at a pace I can't catch up with. I've been feeling dissatisfaction with myself more than usual these days. Sometimes it's to the point that I can't sleep because I think about it so much. I'd like to talk about it but there's some things I just can't figure out yet. Pretty sure you need to figure things out before you make an attempt to explain them.


Anyways, need to do some homework... or something else.


The End.

Day Old Hate.

I hate how weak my immune system is.

So my sickness is fluctuating. At some times I think I'm getting better. And then right when that happens I get dizzy or it feel like I've swallowed a porcupine.

I need to call in sick to work. It's only a four hour shift but I feel really weak and stuff.

There's so many things I want to do today.. but it might take longer than I'd like it to be. It took me a good 8-10 hours to make about 40 paper sculptures. And it wasn't because they were so intricate or awesome or anything. After making about 5 at a time, I would get super dizzy and would have to lie down. Lame.

For some reason I'm not scheduled to work at all this week. I find it a little odd. I have a feeling my next paycheque is going to be really, really small.

Not too much to update on... short entry. Back to being sick.

The End.

Season.

Yeah sooo the past entries were pretty much my attempt at briefly cramming all that's happened in the past few days. I wanted to update but I had limited time to do so and that's why the entries have been quite short.

In other news, it seems that I am officially sick.

I don't think it's nothing too serious, just a cold. I think I caught it when I was up in Sheridan today. The air conditioning there makes the building feel like a freezer. On the bus ride home I felt like crap and basically couldn't breath. I also don't think it helped that I got very little sleep the past days. Hopefully some extra-strength neocitrin will be a big help.

I have so far drank 2 huge mugs of hot tea... and I've lost count of how many cough candies I've consumed.

I didn't end up meeting up with my ex-coworker today. I just felt so crappy that I didn't really feel like doing anything. I'm going to try and do some homework before I go to bed because I really, really need to.

So something's left me quite confused today. I'm not sure if that something was deliberate but well, if it is, then it's quite hypocritical to what that person had said just a short while ago. So I guess that feeling I had about people changing was quite spot-on. As far as I can see it, it isn't for the better.

What I've been noticing though is the fact that I'm feeling a lot closer to the people I haven't seen in such a long time. It makes me wonder why we even kept out of touch in the first place.

So... I suppose I need to get some work done. I hope I don't collapse or something.

The End.

The Airway.

I had my second class of the year today.
I was late by 5 minutes but the teacher didn't seem to care.

I ran into my old coworker at the library while looking up designers.
I'm lending him a book on typography.

Despite my efforts to procrastinate less, the internet and TV make such efforts futile.
I have so far cut out forty 4" x 4" squares.... now I have to make sculptures out of them by thursday.

I have 8 hours straight of classes tomorrow.
And I'll have to wake up at 5:30 in the morning. Oh joy.

My Clone High download has finally finished.
I haven't had the chance to watch any full episodes yet.

I am now somewhat obsessed with Owl City.
After many listens I find that he sounds like if Jack's Mannequin, HelloGoodbye and The Postal Service were put into a blender.

My diet and money-saving plan is working pretty well so far.
I actually haven't spent any money yet. That's actually really awesome.

I feel kind of odd. I don't know why.
Is this what change and self-discovery feels like?

I'm gonna pack up my stuff for school tomorrow now.
It's going to be a very long day.

The End.

Cave in.

School's started. I have to make quite a few paper sculptures for next thursday. So far I'm not feeling the pressure of second year in a graphic design program. I can't promise I'll be saying that next week.

I got home from a 7-hour shift at work about an hour ago. I'm working an 8-hour shift tomorrow... technically today.

I'm waiting for my download of Clone High Season one to finish.
I'm listening to the whole discography of Owl City... he kinda sounds like HelloGoodbye.

I need to lose weight. I'm dieting. My idea of going to a gym failed miserably.

I kinda have this weird feeling that everything and everyone is changing. Not sure if it's for the better yet.

The End.
