i bought a baseball glove yesterday and it's all jason's fault. and today i bought a new fluffy pillow cuz the one i have is so old and it's just flat and hurts my neck. =P i went on a mad shopping spree today, but it was all stuff that i needed. i still need to buy a duvet, now that i know what it is thanx to davy (hehee). anyhoo, lotsa food i bought. but i need to buy more stuff like storage bins and containers and whatnot. FIRST... i need to find a freakin PLACE TO LIVE!!!! aaggghhhhh....

so tomorrow is my 3rd class session of my boring ass SOC 109 class: Analysis of Sociological Data. O_O yeah. same here. i have homework due on thursday which i should start to get crackin on. and after class i get to go help with the leadership component of Summerbridge! yay~ =) helpful janet~ plus i get to see old friends again.

'TIS ALL OVER NOW...
well, Upward Bound Math & Science is officially over and all the craziness has finally subsided... *deep breath* what a build-up of stress as the program slowly came to an end. and the sad part? i'm already starting to miss my students.... and, all the hours i put into making the video, with music and EVERYTHINg.... nothing to show for it. well, it's on my comp, but ugh. *sniff* i'm ok.... at least now i know how to do digital video editing. wheee~!!! now to make adobe premiere work... the program i used was kinda.. basic. i'm ready to get down n dirty..

and so i move on. what next? continue taking summer school, continue tutoring lil dale again, find another part-time job, and i'm looking into volunteering at the local Braille Institute. also need to get real serious about trying to find a place to live. i hope my roomies come back soon... this is not fun. =P poopie. but on a happier note, jason and i toook the CBEST test this past saturday!!! i didn't study for it but i think i did pretty well! =) yayyy.. can't wait to find out my scores..... *twiddle twiddle* i was afraid we were gonna be late cuz he thought the test was at UCSD, not USD. understandable, cuz we have a Warren Lecture Hall, while the CBEST test site was at USD's Warren Hall. damn that warren.

check this site out pplz... =) www.sinfest.com pretty funny stuff...

one of the things i love is the feeling of carrying a bundle of toasty warm clothes fresh out of the dryer. =)

STATUS
EXTREMELY BURNT OUT.... i have so much to do, yet so little time. =P Upward Bound Math & Science ends this week, and i've already printed and made the invitations for our banquet, almost done with the programs, almost done with the certificates, i've been taking pictures for our yearbook, been videotaping throughout the summer, and now i installed Firewire and upgraded my Windows 98, and with only 2 days left i get to figure out how to digitally edit the video. exciting or what? i feel soooooo overloaded and stressed, i'm completely exhausted, very frustrated with computers... yet i can't believe i'm doing all of this. OH! and to top it off, i started summer school today (tues.) *sigh* when this week is over, i'll be utterly relieved. but then again, i'll miss my students terribly..... =/ oy~ the MADNESS!!!
