Morning, Everyone

Alright. Last night I was exhausted, So my writing wasn't worth crap. In any case, I'm moved in (to a certain extent) now. My dad and I completely rearranged my room now - the beds are debunked. I love it sooo much more... but i'm afraid sergio is going to come in and hate it. It took a fucking lot of work to get it this way too, so I hope he doesn't.

(Sidenote: yay. replication problems *sigh*)

There's so much more sitting space now: I have the beds in teh corner, and they're not bunked. So you can sit on both of them, and that makes the room so much more homey, imho.

I haven't gone and eaten any dorm food yet - had ramen for dinner last night and didn't eat breakfast yet. I did completely hide the wires for everthing, so the room looks really nice.

I can't wait to have TV. I have the wires and everything set up for it: power, Antenna (really cable, but still). Have the original nintendo and playstation. He's got a DVD player and a TV that he's bringing. It will be muchly good fun and whatnot.

Webcam is working again, and is fast. Which is nice. I'll probably take it and take pictures of the room later, before we get it all messed up :)

There's a ton of storage space under the bed, which is nice. The fridge and microwave are under there. Blah blah. Rambling about my room.

I'm still lonely. Christy didn't get in until I was going to bed last night, so I didn't get to catch up with her at all. Sergio isn't back yet, as it should be clear throughout this entry. I'm not unpacked much, in case he wants to move things around.

I just sold my chemistry book for 30 bucks. That's as much money as IUB was going to give me for my entire collection of 500 dollars worth of books. I'm selling Andrea my photo book for 10 bucks, which will put a bit more cash in my pocket.

Right now, I'm off to TIS to pick up my reserved books. Tomorrow, After classes, I will go to every bookstore and see what places have used books that TIS didn't have, so I can try and save a bit of cash.

I don't want to go to class tomorrow :)

This song is for my "baby" - I love you kiddo, and I wish you were here. Then again, so do you, so at least the feeling is mutual :)

haven't you always wanted a monkey?

I was tired.

I just laid down and took an hour long nap. (of course, i wrote that at 5pm, so I've been up for a couple hours now).

The room is set up. Sergio came in around 2:30, and brought his nice pretty TV.

It's a Toshiba. It's big. It's flat (like Sarah's new TV in the futon room). 3 inputs, including component inputs for DVD. Right now we've got the dvd in the S-video spot though. He just went out to buy a VCR. We have a huge amount of technological equipment now ;) I have my stereo (to which I'm going to hook up the TV outputs), the TV (which I'm going to hook up to the computer outputs) I have the computer (which is a nice piece of work in itself. I have the Nintendo (8bit) and the Playstation. I feel almost liek I live in this century now :)

I'm watching Happy Days - Sarah now has me addicted to this now :) TVLand is channel 63 here. Instead of channel 57. But that's just a dull observation so I don't forget :)

I picked up all my books today. Tomorrow, I'm going to pick up some used stuff for cheaper from other people, and take back my current ones (Physics and CS225). Tomorrow I also start classes.

I'm kind of scared. I know I've done this all before, but it feels very different now. There's no "getting to know you" feeling - everyone already knows everyone. I'm feeling like I'm going to figure out I'm taking too many, or they're too hard, or something like that. I don't want to do that...

I need to buy some more sticky-tack. none of my posters are staying up anymore. I also think I'm going to put all my photo stuff above my bed.

Sergio brought a ton of food. I haven't even unpacked mine yet, and people keep saying how much we have.

My speakers are being kinda flakey - fading between left and right. It's frustrating, but that's something I gotta deal with, I suppose.

I miss Sarah. I miss sitting and looking into her gorgeous eyes, just staring into them. They're so... mysterious. So deep. I always feel like I'm falling into them.

I need to do some zilla stuff tonight. Most notably, do a trans file for bug 540.

I should be going to bed early tonight (as in before midnight). Even with my nap, I'm really tired.

(no subject)

Happy MLK Day

The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.
Darkness cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

--Martin Luther King, Jr.

Happy Martin Luther King Day.
