Complaining about school and other things.

Luckily, classes weren't too rough today. I only had two classes, and they were over by 11:00, which gave me some time to hang around and make a Subway run with my friends before the manfriend and I had to leave to pick my brothers up.

I've been feeling a little under the weather today, which is typical. We finally start getting sunshine and it starts to get nice out and then I get sick. Huh. Go figure. To be honest, I almost forgot to blog today. My brain feels like some sort of pancake batter and oatmeal mixture, so my thoughts have been painfully slow. It's a miracle I can string together a coherent sentence, let alone remember to actually get things done.

Not only that, but I still have to finish writing my script for the contest I'm participating in. Which ends Wednesday, I believe.

So what have I done this afternoon and evening, instead of blogging and working on my script?

What a great question.

I've been on youtube watching all three of the Scream movies back to back. Now, I know, the movies themselves are pretty terrible. But I freaking love them. They're campy, the characters are hysterical, and the movies do nothing but make fun of every single other slasher film out there. It's great. I honestly can't wait for the forth one to come out. Not because I expect it to be some huge success or win an Oscar or anything, but because they're good for a cheap laugh. However, I'm the only person in my group of friends who has any interest whatsoever in seeing Scream 4, none of my other friends can stand the series at all, so if I were to see it in theaters, I'd have to go alone.

I doubt I'll see it in theaters though. I mean, I'm a poor college student who works a minimum wage job two days a week and is trying to save up for LeakyCon. I don't see very many trips to the movie theater at $9 a ticket when I don't even earn that much an hour at my job. (Minimum wage in New York is $7.25 an hour for those of you aren't from here or just don't know).

There's been a lot of time to dwell on a few things, the largest of which is that I'm getting to that point where I really miss reading for fun again. Even during break, I was reading my assigned book (and countless others for my final project) for YA Lit and a play for World Lit. While I've managed to snag a few chapters here and there of something I actually wanted to read, it's just not as satisfying knowing that I won't be able to sit down and finish it until I'm done with everything else. It's incredibly frustrating.

I'm still trying to finish up all of my transfer stuff. It seems like every time I think I've finished getting everything around, some other papers that they need crop up that I need to have signed by a million different instructors and, just, gah.

Meh. I'm just going to end this now.

Until tomorrow!
