I think everyone should watch this. I find it a nice remedy to the all the cynicism I run into on a daily basis. It's a beautiful world people, if you look hard enough.

PS. I will be updating with a proper post later on, either today or at the end of the week. There are some flist related things I need to address.
PPS. today a girl during my lab shift asked me for help and turned out her name was "Stephanie Bollinger" I had to try so hard not to laugh. She kept giving me a strange look which I think means I didnt succeed very well. Clearly fandom is addling my brain.

Yo, just dropped by to say that I hope your semester went well and to wish you luck with finals.

[sisterjune.livejournal.com]

Oh hi! yeah I did rather well this semester. grades have been good so far. and thanks, good luck too! I'm curious though, what have you been up to lately?

[dazzlingsoup.livejournal.com]

Meh, just studying and goofing around with people. I haven't been on msn because I had to change my account after getting a new comp, forgot my pass and I cant get into that email anymore. My rents deleted my old compy account off before I could get on there to tell people on msn that I had a new one. XD I broke up with that guy because he was a douche bag too, so its been kind of a dramatic past month.
Glad to hear that youve been doing well this semester and I hope that you pwn the school in the fall too ^^. I'm already dreading my schedule..Microbio, Math 172, Eng 111 (had to drop out this semester cause i had 18 credit hours and it was driving me meeeental), and hoooopefully if it stays open until I can register as a non-degree student..Japanese I over at state. Might throw abnormal psych in there too. What are you planning on taking?

[dazzlingsoup.livejournal.com]

oh! You should get a facebook if you don't already have one! :O

[sisterjune.livejournal.com]

Ohh you're account got deleted! I was wondering why you had a sudden disappearance and the change of accounts on your lj. well if it's alright, mind if i add the new one
sorry to hear about your boyfriend D: but if it's any consolation he had "wanker" written all over his face to me.
I've been surprisingly well really, I started the semester with a not very good attitude but somehow I got it together and have been hitting rather consistently good marks on all my assignments! My parents said I"m finally growing up and all that. makes me happy ;_; I still dont really have a clue what i wanna study when I transfer to university. I've been considering being an esl teacher, but honestly even that if i chose to do it would be a temporary career for me. I wouldnt do it forever or even most of my life but it's a good place to start. Woah microbio AND math? You're amazing, are you an associate in science? I remember a girl in my art class talking about her course load as an associate in science and they had her taking pre calculous! I"m so glad I dont have to. I'm scared of 070! Which I signed up for in the summer. there goes my fun and free summer eh? XD but better I get it over with now. I really feel to driven to succeed lately, I just dont know where I'm going exactly but I wanna move forward. that's all I need to know. and my classes this semester were Art 111, ENG 111 (which I finally managed to conquer! WOO!) and PED 130, which is like tennis XD. and 18 credit hours is crazy! I want to TRY to take 12 next year but I dont know if I can handle it but it's like if I cant do it then do I even have half a hope succeeding in Uni? For next semester I"m signed up for Hum 160 & 220 and ENG 112. I'm considering throwing a science class in there too but I"m not sure yet. we'll see! Oh and Japanese at state? I didnt know they had that! Sounds cool, I still wanna take a japanese class even though I"m not as much a japanophile as before but I love languages as much as ever. I actually checked out a book on japanese from the waketech library. apparently mcgraw hill makes language books now lol.
and actually I dont have a face book no, most of my family does and honestly I never wanna get one. The family friends all know about and watch facebook and my sister and bro have gotten some unwanted snooping in the past, i like that my parents know zero about my inner thoughts and friends and all that. plus i'd never update it. I love lj too much <3

[dazzlingsoup.livejournal.com]

oO I never changed my lj account, I just dropped off the face of the earth on it lol. Haha my summer will be filled with Bio II, but I love it to bits to its all good. The microbio class is just for fun for me lol, cause its being taught by my current Bio 111 professor and I absolutely ADORE him.Yea, Im an associates of science now and actually my math class in the fall will be the second half of precalc since im about to finish part 1. I'm so glad you got through 111, you always write beautiful entries in your journal so its clear that your not incapable of it. I just think you lacked that motivation that you have now :D and it really does make me so happy for you. Haha I know what you mean about the whole not being as much of a japanophile thing. It's just that I still really adore the language and the culture there, plus I think I'm planning on going into neurobiology research and japan is a big name in any sort of science research..so i need to know the language. But yea, state has a TON of language courses. Like Japanese, Chinese, Persian, Greek, Hindi, Arabic, Russian, Italian, French, and Spanish. Im sure there are a few more but thats all I can remember lol. Oh also, don't worry about the number of credits your taking. No one really cares because all that matters is that you take the amount that fits what you need to make good grades. I was falling apart of 18 and so I dropped one class, now I'm doing bad ass at 15 lol. 4 A's and 1 B. Unless something drastic happens during my finals,thats how it should be. Thats so cool that you want to be an ESL teacher though, Im sure you would be fantastic at it even if it is a short term thing. Oh, and if you need any help with MAT 070, just hit me up because I've still got all of my notes from that with me. Though if you need 080 notes >_> youre on your own because I didnt take a damn note in that class lol. But, I can still help with the course work.

HI WALL-O-TEXT BECAUSE KAYLA IS LAZY AND DOES NOT SEPARATE HER RAMBLES INTO PARAGRAPHS.

oh i meant the change of msn accounts but I ended up adding without waiting for a response XD still impatient as ever 8Dv

awwww you really think I write beautiful entries? ;___; Seriously, everytime I went to the ILC for help with a paper I was told how lovely my writing is. and I'm thinking WTF happened in the year I spent avoiding english classes? i went from being an F student in english to getting A's and B's! But I'm so glad though, writing was...I mean for years I wanted to be a writer you know? and then my dream was crushed when I failed english...TWICE! but now...I feel a bit of hope rekindled! I already have a nice little plan for how I will break into the writing field...doing novels and all...well I wont say it here XD. and I know what you mean about the japanese culture thing, I still love learning about it and want to visit japan so much still. Just as a world traveler perhaps? I've just been with it so long I cant really forget japan. I did my oral report in english on Shinto in fact. I've been thinking about university transfer as well. State really sounds like a lovely school but I keep worrying it's not really what I'm fit for and worse even it's not really what I need for the careers I'm interested in. It's not really a liberal arts school you know? Honestly regardless of where I go, I want to study abroad. i just, HATE living here. Spending 3-4 years here just feels like a prison sentence. besides I need to learn to become independent. being shipped overseas would probably be one of the best ways to learn to rely on myself and be responsible for my life. Oh wow neurobiology that sounds so cool! I'm quite fond of sciences but hardly adept at them so it's very cool you can do them and really they always get more respect than the arts. which is what *I* love. and thank you! for offering to help with 070, I will definitely need it! I'm gonna try to sign on later on msn. for now though I really should go back to studying for my final exams. Was nice doing catch up with you ^^ oh there is something I need to sort of...bring up with you later. I'll tell you then~
