Here it comes...February 1st 2005 22:52

Mood: ---

*19 days and counting

I told you mondays were average...Froc moved the test to next monday...oh well...more time then. But that also means I have to juggle that on the the same day as my sociology presentation...Panopicticism...which is a principle of prision design(which I learned in Crim 1101) but it's being applied to sociology as an analogy for survillence. Big Brother if you will...which is pretty cool. I never thought of it that way...God, I always hate it when profs are informal...remember those "Cheers Laura" emails? Boy howdy...those were weird...

Tomorrow I'm going to try to hit the gym at 8 and get home by 10 to get work done at home...But then I might just blow myself out in the weightroom for 3 hours...who knows?

I've been listening to a lot of verticle horizion. I had no idea they did "Everything You Want"...I've heard it on the radio and always wondered who that was...oh well...I'm done...
Welcome to February...Dark and Cold and Lonely(more so than other months)

Blah....February 2nd 2005 21:49

Mood: ok


So...I lied

I slept in until 11...and I got up and hung about...meaning I have to bust my ass in the gym tomorrow after Crim stats...No biggie...also I need to book the projector...

I called in the favour with Jamie today...oddly enough he saw it coming...he'll do it...not like I'm asking him to move a body...yet...

It's been a quiet day...so not much to say...add to that someone is peering over my shoulder...I'm done

Just Because-February 2nd 1:27

Mood: Odd

Can I not admit what's bothering me to myself? I seem to walk around hindered by this deep seeded problem that's affecting everything I do. No matter where I am, no matter what I'm doing, it sits there...like a tumor...like a boil... But can one problem be so encompassing that you have no idea what it is? You're so deep in it you cannot see outside it to diagnose it? Being on the wrong side of the two way mirror.

Too many fricking analogies...Note: Alan Alda's voice has not changed...the man is 69 and he still sounds the same as he did all those days ago on MASH...and yes...I have a MASH addiction I'm working on...He was on Conon just so you know...I think I should try to cut down the MASH to just two episode a day...none of this four(or even 8!) garbage...Something about it...Now that's writing!

I think I need a Lingering Problem Scan...a LPS is hard to come by these days...I'd rather do those arcaic radioactive dye things...I should design a LPS...or maybe a LPD...a scan refers to a device...a diagnostics can be done with verbal testing...and surveys!

If she's everything you want and everything you need and everything inside of you that you wish you could be, why do you hesitate?...sorry...too much vertical horizon.

I'm come to a decision to not tell friends about my plans to join the CF after university...I don't know why...some people would just take it...weird...or make fun of me for it...(coughbrecough)...some people think the CF is the Marines and I'll be back in little pieces....I don't think they need to know...especially not Jon...he'll try to recruit me or something...

It's not that another person completes you, they just find the part within you to make you whole

Does that one work? after some re-write...fuck...I'm punching out and getting some rack time...I have 8am class...and I have to dodge the Skanksaurus...and set up an SPR by the attic window...just in case...

Long Day-February 2nd 2004 23:42

16 days and counting

Mood: Tired

I don't think I've ever been this tired before, but I can't sleep...I'm going to try for 24 hours again...close...up at 6, bed at 6...I have class at 2 anyways...and I walked away again...watched MASH...I found a great site with episode briefs....it's about 1 now...and I haven't started writing yet...but I should..and will..I have 5 hours...It was another par wenesday...what can I say? I tried to power nap before law and that didn't work...hence the tiredness

This is the sound of bordem-February 3rd/4th 23:24

Mood: Tired

I enjoyed today...despite the title. 
 I realized last week that the Lounge has a satelite dish that can watch different time zones...so I got to watch CSI at 6 when it's usually on at 9...sad thing is I missed the last 10 minutes as class is at 7. I caught the tail end of The OC..but I didn't care about that...the Women's Basketball team watches CSI after practice...WOOT
 I met another Halfie today...Tianna in CRWR. She came up to me after class and asked me if I was a Halfie...took to a couple seconds to realize what she meant....She's Cantonese/German, I'm Japanese/English. She started the conversation as I bear a striking resemblence to her brother. Sad though, her Cantonese side retained the language and culture(Oddly enough she didn't)...I'm the 3rd Generation born in this country...My grandma was born here as was my dad...so I'm white washed and white ingrained...there's a website devoted to people who are halfies...I don't think that's the official term...no..it is...Bre once asked me to find a half brown/asian person to see what her kids with Harv might look like. Mixed Folks.com is the site...Meaning I'm a Hapa...woot...I used to think it was Hapie...I once got  a newsletter from a Hapa Club or something. I finally did a peer edit today...I have to edit Kyle's via email as he got called into work...no biggie...Gary? I think his name is, did a near future WWIII kind of story with no nukes...something I thought of doing...he's looking at it from a civilian angle...I would have gone military units...Tianna didn't have one done......I feel foolish...it was Carri Balentine...I wondered why she came so early on the attendence list...she would at least come after me being an S...but come one...she would fit "Carrie Valentine" I do like the I touch
I got home just over an hour ago...Mom filled me in on the rest of CSI...and I ate too much leftover pizza despite having a box of smarties, a coffee and a burger platter during the course of today.
Remember that brunnette I mentioned in CRWR...off her now...sure, she's cute...but when you spit a huge loogie at the bus stop and talk like a moron...yeah...(sigh)She almost had as asthma attack on the way home today...that could explain the spitting earlier.
Omar is getting killed in his Spanish 1100 class...I told him not to take it...He asked me why I wasn't sleeping(MSN Convo) and then I said it was homework related..then he said por que?(why?) I responded with porque(because). It was a simple answer...he said "no, I said why" I went "Yeah and I said because"...he has a long way to go..he almost failed beginner 10 and didnt take any after that. I'm glad I took spanish when I did...sure I passed 11 with 55%...but that's fine, when I go to university, all they will see is "passed spanish 11..." which meets the language requirement for SFU...To pass the time this afternoon, I tried to write poetry and for some reason nothing came out...yeah, I'm scared....I should get back into gear as poetry starts the week after next...(sigh)

So I'm done...I should get some sleep...as I don't want to repeat last week's run to KWat...

Wow...February 4th and 5th 2004 15:42

Mood: ok

15 days and counting

Now, I have to stop at the bus exchange twice a day, almost everyday. I've been doing that for the past 4 months. Only this morning to I stop and think..wait a minute, this was the spot where I had my first kiss...Hailey...(sure we'll call it a kiss) I've never thought of it before today...weird...I guess it's in proximity to the day. It also proved I don't think about her as constantly as I think I do...It was nice though. Brought a rare real smile to my face for a moment or two. Again, she hit me so hard that  I haven't truly "recovered", my head is still "spinning"...every now and then...

Enough with that...more to come....It just made me feel so good in that misty morning. I have to stay in that moment...anything after it seems so fake...

Can one person cling to an event for the rest of their lives? We'll see...I hope not...it just showed me I can be loved...that sounds dumb, but when I realized she was cuddling up beside me(took longer than you think)...nevermind...I'm done.

Problems-February 5th 2005 22:12

Mood: ---

14 days and counting

It was my parents 25th wedding anniversery today...was an absoulute bust on all accounts...it's a really shame too...My dad just doesn't seem to care about anything anymore...

All the work is now beginning to pile on...Socio Presentation and Psych Midterm monday...2nd CRWR story thursday...Crim Law midterm and Socio Midterm next week...and I found out I have to prosecute the mock trial on my own. Whoopie...I can get through it all...just takes some time...not like I have anything better to do anyway...The old saying applies..."this is the life I chose"

Bre is ok...maybe I didn't mention she phoned Friday morning and said she was urinating blood and was going to the hospital...servere infection...I feel bad that I couldn't do anything for her...I think she took the bus down...These are the days I wish I could drive...I could be a bit more helpful...Oh well...I'll get it soon enough...

I took Jamie for a run this morning...it became a social stroll...wuss...and he says I'm out of shape...A few more weeks of that and he'll be ready for Rugby and football...American that is...

I guess that's it...I'm going to put some stuff on the Photoblog...so check that out...I'll have more later...

What it all comes down to-February 7th 1:02

Mood: ---

Master procrastinator...thank you...But this is how I work...I'm least I'm not a master debator...I'm not going to open my presenation with that one...I try to start with a joke...I'm leaning towards teh grasshopper in the bar one...it's a classic...and it classroom suitible..I opened with a Rodney Dangerfield bit for Crim 1100...no one got it...Oh well...

I'm glad I finally figured out the point of the theoritical article...I know I like doing things on my own..and that's fine when my actions only effect me. But this is still a "group" project. I'm just doing half of it by myself...The mark from their project and mine are combined to form a group score...here's hoping I don't blow it. I won't...I'm good with a Powerpoint presentation. I know what I'm talking about and I can speak in public. Sad thing is, it's never "me" speaking. It's a character/persona I put on so I can act....I even break out the suit jacket for these things so I can differenciate. Like an actor in a costume, you become someone else. It's sad...but it's how I work...

2:22-I'm done...I cut it down to 9 slides...12 seemed too big for this one...God I hope this one turns out. I'm shaky on the subject matter...with Crim 1100 I knew modelling theory way before...but the entire idea of panopticism NOT being applied to prison design...I have enough info to work...

Ok, I'm done

Random Thought
M&Ms suck...Smarties are  much  better...more milky...less bitter Remember M&M are American and Smarties...aren't...British/Canadian.
