[info]carrot05
Continuing on from last entry....... I talked to the teacher after class. Today we have a one page "project selection" due. Wednesday we have a "project timeline" due. Not bad. I already did the homework due Wednesday and he has it. I can just turn it in again Wednesday though in case haha. So after this journal I need to write that up and e-mail it to him.

Java project due today got moved up to Wednesday. I found out when I was just checking Moodle for no reason. *sigh of relief* I still plan on doing it tonight, but in case something goes wrong I have a few days.

It was nice to see Koi happy and active today. (Although I secretly suspect she's on drugs.. @recentlivejournalfromhertoconfirmthisstatement). It was also nice to see Paul Ridge April Katie and other people who were at that table that I know but don't know. And Karl, which for some reason we have a silent mutual agreement that we know each other exists but we don't ever dare acknowledge the other one's presence. jk

Garrett and I are going to see Breaking Benjamin. Anyone who wants to come should come :)
It'll probably end up being just us, or just us and Lauren. It's far away and costs like $41 because of a stupid TWELVE DOLLAR service fee. Fuck you livenation. But I think Garrett will force her to go, so it doesn't really matter if she wants to; if she's off then she's coming :P And the people we know that spend that much on bands don't like BB haha

I am so tired.

Boy Boy Boy..

I skipped the last 2 Networking classes..

Get here today..

*classmates turn in some paper*
teacher: "and don't forget the timelines due wednesday, as well as your homework"

i only turned in the homework, which i did friday like the internet said.. what paper? what timeline?
sigh, to be continued.

dear journal,

I could complain and whine, but it would do no good.
My hands are numb from coding.

I have GOT to get my priorities in order.
I waited until the last minute for this project, and it killed me.
I got about half way, everything being sloppy along the way.

Thursday I skipped Java and English to work on project. I skipped Java only because I was late. Then I realized this project was tough, so I worked on it through English. Yesterday I spent 9AM-9PM at CC's working on project; there was no time for Networking or Stats. I also turned off my e-mail. Today I worked on it all morning so I skipped Java and English.

What I'm trying to say is, I skipped 6 class periods in the last 3 school days. SIGH. I hadn't missed at all yet, and don't plan on doing it again. This assignment HAD to get somewhat done though.

Time to relax and catch up.

Peace

so like.. an hour ago, my sister woke me up..
i was all confused like what?.. i just went to bed lol

i notice my parents still aren't home so i'm like weird..
anyway.. she takes me to the patio window and tells me to listen..

and you can hear someone suffering.. like breathing heavy.. screaming.. crying..

totally someone got their ass kicked, and getting their ass kicked.. a girl.

and right before my sister woke me up,
she had woken up to screams.. and then she heard someone say to "keep breathing don't stop".. and she heard beating noises like throwing shit and slapping / punching.

trying to figure out if we should call cops? or like? so confusing cause it's so random..
and parents won't answer phone and aren't home.. this is their house so they can call lol..

so we are all *turn on light outside*
then it gets reallllyyyy quiet, and we are just confused as can be.
then we hear a man pick up a phone and call the cops..
he says something about he has already called the cops on his daughter like 5 times and they need to come and take her away.

so.. *15 min later* a cop arrives next door

they talked for like 30 minutes.. he went inside and out, over and over. we heard the neighbor say "the goddamn neighbor turned on the fucking lights so i had to call yall" and we are like.. OH HELL NAW. of course we turned on the light, there were fucking rape noises!

i wanted to run outside and be all "well fuck yeah we turned on the light, someone was screaming loud enough in the back yard to wake us up." but my parents aren't home yet so we didn't want to get involved? i would have probably gotten a ticket from the cop anyway.

is just funny, it was obvious he thought we called the cops.. but we didnt. he did. and he sounded so guilty cause he was defending himself against nothing.

anyway.. eyesdropping.. i hear him tell the cop.. "I DID NOT BEAT MY CHILD. I PUSHED HER AND SHE FELL. I DID NOT BEAT HER. IT WAS ONE HIT. AND SHE FELL."

and at that point i'm like jesus man, you are confessing everything? it's like a movie. who knew people talked like that in real life? so dumb?

but anyway.. the cop left... and that was that..

my parents still aren't home.. next door is quiet.. and my sister is up for the day lol

mk back to bed for me though

Today..
[info]carrot05
Today had its ups and downs.

Woke up this morning. Late. Garrett called to wake me up and that worked.
Hopped out of bed with just enough time to let the dogs out (parents are out of town) and make it to school.

About 5 mintes after I left home I realized I didn't lock the doors.
So I hurried back home.

Stopped the car.
Got out.
EPIC --->
Realized the car wasn't in park.
Jumped back in the car; attempted to press the brakes.
Pressed the accelerator instead!
Ran into one of the black supports for my house.
Pressed the brake correctly before it hit my mom's car inches away.
<-- EPIC.

So.. the black support is now slanted majorly.  I moved it about a foot.
I'm just hoping when I get home tonight after work that the carport area didn't fall down :-\

Now on to other things.

Since I woke up late I didn't have time to study for my English exam today.
However, I knew more than everything on it. The only problem I had was that I can't physically write anymore.  My brain knows the answers but my hands fail at writing.  If it was typed I would of had 100+.  I probably got a low A though.

Got my PL test back today.  He said he wanted to curve the test 12 points down.  It's the highest average he's ever given.  The test was so easy that most of the class made A's.  Even one person made a 100.  This never happens in his class.  He said the other teachers were clowning him because he is known for being "that hard teacher."  So I'm sitting there like OMG, if I fail this I will have been an idiot.  I made an 82B though.  Not high, but not low enough for me to care. I can still graduate this semester now.

So.. off to work on school stuff.  Work tonight. Still need to catch up on Desperate Housewives.


----- Yesterday -----
Went to CCs with Garrett. Found Noah there. Koi came meet us after she got off of school.
Noah invited me/us to The 13th Gate Friday night. Garrett/us invited him to The House of Shock Saturday.  He said he would try to make it and would let me know.  I told him the same about The 13th Gate.

Went to target; Koi bought boots.  Ashley and Alexis already own them haha.

Went to Spirit, Koi tried on a guitar.  Garrett tried on Gumby.  Both work.
I still have no idea what I will be.  Neither does Ashley.
Garrett would be cute as Waldo; but Brett is being that so there may be a Facebook photo war.

We need to book the Halloween hotel.

Toodles. Not really. Peace.

Dear new neighbors,
I've become quite used to waking up to find you washing your bus, continuing unfinished remodeling projects, running sex scams with the underage neighbors across the street, and prepping your boat for the fishing trips you never take.  However, today it sounds like you're building a fucking atomic bomb in your back yard. I just thought I would inform you.
TnxXoXo, Beau

So, woke up today.  Mother called... over, twenty, times.  In a five minute period. Seriously.  I needed to make a phone call before 12, I'm not sure why I was expected to wake up the second she wanted me to call, but whatever.  But that's not what woke me up.  What woke me up is when the lamp-eye plague visited me.  She hasn't came in months, but she did this morning.

So, I called this office to see about my ticket.  "Failure to yield to emergency vehicle."  This is what getting a ticket "fixed" in New Iberia consists of now, due to a new program called "DISPERSION." (1) Going have an interview and fill out paper work with Jill. (2) Paying a $150 fine.  (3) Paying a $20 processing fee.  (3) Paying $30 a month until you complete the program (shouldn't take more than one month).  (4) Taking a class all day on a Saturday.  Then, and only then, will I not have a criminal record. Fuck. The. Police.  Fire hydrants - $200. Parked cop cars - $200.

So, just showered and shaved.  I hadn't washed my hair all week no joke.  Pretty gross.  Eating lunch now.  Then will find something to do.  Maybe school work or maybe go run, I don't know.

Later.

waiting for neXt class

Java Assignments so far: 5/5 were 100/100, k tnx

Just finished my English paper and went to class turn it in, procrastination at it's best.

SOOOO behind in PL, haven't started on semester project yet and we got it a month ago.  We get another assignment today.

SOOOO behind with senior project. I haven't worked on it in a full two weeks =[

SOOOO behind with health and fitness.  I've gained weight, and I keep slipping and eating bad.  Also I get like no physical activity lately besides walking from class to class.

SOOOO behind on life. I have no portfolio up. I haven't done Bobby's sites. I haven't tried Windows 7 and my Google Reader has like 400 unread articles. Etc.

I made an 88 on my Stats test. I wish it was an A but that's close enough.  The one I knew I missed was worth 8 points.  I missed another one with 4 points, I don't know why but I saw everyone got it wrong.  I shall find out tomorrow in class I guess.

Networking test yesterday was hard.  My fault, I haven't been reading the book and keeping up.  I just do my homework which I work through the answers via google.

So basically: big SHUN. WAKE UP BEAU.


On the brighter side,
I am done all my work until next Thursday for now.  I need to take this time to catchup on PL and project, and get stuff done from next week so I have more free time as well.  I believe I'm going to Girl Talk this Friday, and maybe 13th Gate Saturday which is awesome.  Girl Talk depends on if Garrett can come.  Not sure if Rob can come either even though I doubt he will.  Doesn't like 7 hr drives or moshish crowds lol.

Things to do today:
- Work on project, hours are due Thursday @ 2
- Celebrity, place order/sign/work
- Start on Java Assn8/9
- Start reading next week's English
- Do some kind of physical exercise

And we'reee off..

Farming before bed.  Been working on project, meeting tomorrow.
Planted grapes;  I have 9 horses? lol.. John Bates keeps sending me them.
Hm.. my farmer is stuck in a fenced in area.. and farming goes faster? HMM! Will test tmw.

Applied for graduation, 12-19-09 is the date... but may only be reached if I pass everything.
I have 2 projects due next week for the same class.  In my hardest class I have been assigned the EOY project already.
I have 20+ pages to read for each English class, and we haven't gotten to the novels yet.
Lots of work, but I'm doing it so that's cool.  This weekend I'd like to get ahead on everything.
I have a lot assigned so doing it now wouldn't stress myself so much.

The project coding should be all moved to me really soon and taken completely out of the teachers hands.

I need to design Yomanbob's site.. the designer not the comic.  Hobby work.

Watched Glee tonight w/ Garrett. Great show.
Jordan: Let me dress you. You look like a damn technicolor zebra.

Tomorrow Friday, Weekend. Yay.

.
In ACTR STEP lab waiting for my class to start next door in 15 minutes. I'd be sitting in there but there is another class going on right now.

Got to school a little before 8.  Parked for free in Kelly land.  UL isn't getting $5/day out of me.
It is close to ACTR anyway. I figured I had from then until 1pm to work on project.

Worked on it, went eat lunch, then realized at around 11 that it was Thursday and I had class AT 11.
So I went to class.

My USGS meeting tomorrow got rescheduled until next Wednesday.  That's cool I will just work on stuff this weekend to show them.

I get Celeb paid tomorrow and USGS-ULoL paid Monday.. =)

Class Review:

MW:
Networking, boring.  I want to learn the information because I don't know much about the topic but it was really boring yesterday.
Statistics, alright.  This one seems like it will be a lot better than the last statistic I took which was just BS basically.

TR:
Java, cool.  I like that teacher.  I've had him before for lab and he is my advisor.  I learn stuff in his classes. Java is what I'm doing project in so that's a plus. I get to learn it and do it at the same time.
English, alright.  I will let you know when I do the readings if I like the material she chose.  She is ditzy though so kind of funny.
Programming Languages aka PL, suspicious.  It's supposedly the hardest class in our curriculum with a 46% pass rate.  I will be focusing a lot on this.

Life:
Working out needs to continue soon.
Eating better needs to peak at a high again.
More time needs to be solely dedicated to project.

Rest of today:
- PL
- Mall
- Park
- Movie, TFD I'm hearing.

Later.

GO UL(oL)!

First day of school.
But.. my first classes isn't for another 15 minutes in the next room.

I'm taking 15 credits.  Hopefully 16 if I'm enrolled in another 499 for project.
I had 18, but I decided against it.
My GPA has to be extremely high this semester to make the cum3.0 like I want. I rather a 3.0 than a minor in math.
If I go in the Spring (whichI have like 2 weeks to decide) I will take a math course.

Project.
I'M BEHIND!!!
I need to get my act together before they get mad.  I need to have a meeting with Dustin this week.
I won't be clocking too many hours this week to catch up.  I need to upload 2 things that are nonexistent but linked to blank pages.
Teacher was like, where is it? lol
I think I will be a lot more strict with the project now that school is in session and my schedule is kind of hardwired.
Also if I'm in the class then I'll have a "boss" to meet with to keep me on track of doing something.

I was feeling terrible this morning then again at lunch.  IDKY. I'm fine right now though.

The Grand14 has 500 days of summer, I want to watch it.
Kelly says Margarita Monday, maybe so since I've had such a stressful day :P

Off to class I go. Ttyl.

Beauuuu
[info]carrot05
Eating breakfast chilling.
I need to add some stuff to Copper, but I just realized I need to know one small thing before I can. However, I'm 99% positive my teacher is sleeping.  I will just add it the way I think it needs to be done in a second.

Meeting at 1:30 at USGS. Wish me luck. Scary.

Last week I started off GONNA WORK HARD on project, and failed to produce anything. This week shall be different.
Last week I also started off major strong on exercising and eating healthy, only to be followed by 2 days of Little Caesars. This week shall be different.
I'm up early Monday morning ready to get some stuff done on this and clock some major hours. Cooked a Julia omlet minus butter and greens. So just an egg ha.

This week I would also like to:
- Have a draft of a portfolio site and tumblr theme.
- Finish  yomanbob app.
- Run all 5 days, not just 3.

I also have work the next 3 days. Rah. I shall iron my clothes in a minute.
Lunch with Rob I believe. Not sure if Gar will be attending because he needs to go visit his aunt before she leaves.

Good day to you sir.

Technocratic
[info]carrot05

I am starting my senior project now. It's veryyy overwhelming. There is so much to read and catch up on that I've been going at a snail's pace.

I created a new blog, slice and dice. It is to keep track of my project. I feel this is the most convenient and thorough way. I have set a goal of posting everyday. This should help me keep track of hours I may miss recording and help me when I have to go back and write my report at the end.

I just calculated that between Celebrity and this project, I should be making enough to move out? Shall see.

I'm having difficulty organizing my time. I am attempting to do so now. I basically need to create a new whentowork account for myself ha. It's hard to stop yourself from doing everything when you need to do research online. Tumblr is a click away from facebook which is a click away from all the stuff I need to read. I"m working on this.

Garrett's birthday is tomorrow. We are going eat tonight because I have a stupid wedding to attend to tomorrow. We shall go out downtown after. Tomorrow he gets gifts and cake and the real going out experience.

Sadie has a bladder infection. If she has stones again my family will die. They feed her table food. She can't have that. Her begging is much better than the pain she has to go through with stones and surgery. I don't feed the dogs anything. DUMB PEOPLE. Little Debbies are for fat humans, not fat dogs.

I have just made a new discovery.  Chocolate coffee.

That is all. Later.
