My beloved Char and stuff

So yesterday I woke up to a dead Char. Not fun. At all. I cried during my whole morning routine, and crying just makes everything harder. I only had him for six years, but we don’t really know how old he was. If he really was only 7 or 8, then he died prematurely since their expected lifespan is 13 years. The oldest recorded was 29. Can you imagine that? Having someone for nearly 30 years and then they just die. But he acted as if he was too old, he stopped eating =/ Either way.. he’s gone now, and I miss him a lot. We went through a lot. He gave Caity a nice face scar, and I have a nice scar on my arm xD and he gave me a badly infected thumb one time. And I used to be covered in scratches from him. He was quite aggressive towards me. We dug a grave for him yesterday. I dug half and Daddy dug half. He didn’t take as long as me to do the second half, but I was using the wrong shovel =|

It’s time to go to class and I’m not finished yet, gr.

Haha, it’s actually today.

So today was my second day of TR classes. I don’t like going over the macro homework as a class. I don’t like participating in a class unless I am sure of my answer. And yea… I don’t know squat about the economy. The people in my class, at least four, seem to actually know about this stuff and it’s a bit intimidating as far as I’m concerned. There’s also a class right before ours and it’s an old guy, and the older teachers like to go over their allocated time. That is annoying.

Digi was fine. We started on chapter 2, so we went back to chapter 1. Of course… I wasn’t really listening cause it wasn’t info that actually mattered. I drew horsey stuff, and the one thing was an awesome My Little Pony Tales head. After that! we went back to converting between the different number systems… what a bore =|

My other posts don’t include this other thing that is bothering me right now. I mean. I dunno, maybe it did but whatever. Anyway. I don’t really feel all that comfortable.  I feel kinda awkward everywhere, and I still don’t really have friends. Tony’s not in any of my classes now. I saw him standing outside the school store though, talking to some girl I’ve never seen. He does that, I suppose. Attract girls. But yea, he just talks and seems detached, you know, like you should be with friends. I waved, and he waved back, and I continued going to class. It’s been very cold too, below freezing every day. I had a hard time getting myself to get my books. And I spent all of my money on them too, but that’s what happens when you get new books from the school’s bookstore.

Which brings me to my next dilemma, I only am comfortable depositing checks and money in the ATM, and I’m too.. uncomfortable to do it any other way by myself. So.. I’m stuck with having only $14 for now I guess. I need to get gas soon though.

I’ve been feeling kinda down since Albert left, and I thought that once I started classes again, I’d get out of that slump, but it hasn’t seemed to happen yet, unfortunately. I also have to get used to my new times. I have a lunch time dilemma  cause of my odd classes and cause I don’t really like taking lunch and stuff… nerrr.

Wednesday, woooo.

So today I had my Monday classes again. Uhm… It went well. in terms of classes. Again. Ha. I don’t really remember anything memorable. Oh. uhm. In Network Analysis, I drew. Andddd she apparently includes MC in her PP? What the poo D: That’s all I have to say.

Second day

So today was my second day and the second half of my classes. They were okie dokie. My first class of Macroeconomics was nothing unusual. The teacher talks a lot. It makes it hard to take notes. He uses powerpoints too, yuck. He kept looking in my general direction, and it kind of bothered me! He has humor though, yay for not quite boring.

My second class was Digital Electronics I, with my teacher from last year. The first thing we’re learning to do is to convert between decmial and binary, octal, and hexidecimal. Go me for already knowing the easiest of the three. We haven’t converted between binary and octal or binary and hex or octal and hex though. Josh ish in the class with me, but yet again, we’re in opposite sections. Oh well. I don’t even know if I mentioned Josh before xD But yea, so far it promises to be just as much fun as Intro to Circuit Analysis.

First Day of Spring Semester

So today was my first day back to college and the conclusion of winter break. I was slightly nervous just because I haven’t been there for a month, and wouldn’t you know, I should have renewed my ID the week before, oh well. There was a long line of people waiting to get in because we weren’t informed and at leas 2/3 had to get a sticker. Luckily, I was still early to class, and I found my two classes okie dokie.

My first class was Calc I, and we were actually locked out because the teacher apparently doesn’t have a key. He really should. He turned out to be a slightly tubby, Chinese guy named Mr. Wang. He likes to talk a lot but doesn’t speak English very well. Not so much in terms of words but in terms of pronunciation. I mean, sure, he constantly uses plural nouns and forgets prepositions and conjunctions, but when you say words that sound just like other, completely different words, it can be confusing. Especially when you say words that don’t sound like words! So, I’ll have to listen closely. Thankfully he’s really nice. He acknowledges he sucks at English, and he jokes around a bit, and he laughs. When he was going around asking us our name and what we do, though, he seemed to not want to listen to me, like he wanted to get away from me, cause he walked away before I finished. Maybe I just wasn’t talking fast enough. Whatever, lol. Anyway, our first class was more about not math than math. Or, as Mr. Wang pronounces it, mass. So far, the class seems to be okie dokie. People were saying it’s hard or something, but if we’re just teaching ourselves, I’ll do fine.

My second class was Network Analysis, a continuation of Intro to Circuit Analysis. This time we’re analyzing AC circuits instead of DC. Our classroom gets to be our lab room too. The teacher seems quite nice. She has an Indian sounding accent, but obviously, she could be something else. Her voice isn’t annoying, yay! And I can understand her just fine. She’s also nice and jokes around a bit. She doesn’t talk a lot, our first class was mostly actually course material, and she doesn’t use powerpoints, yay! I can’t really think of anything else to mention.

Uhm… yea. end!

Catsup

Sooooo…. it’s been a longer while. Like, a month! =D School is going very well. I have a 102% in English as of now. I won’t after this upcoming essay, but that’s okay, cause it ought to still be an A. In precalc I’m not doing so hot, I definitely have a C. Tomorrow I’m doing this… uhmmm…AMATYC test for EC though =D Circuit Analysis, is -really- circuit analysis xD We actually have to figure out where the electricity flows and figure out how fast and how much! It can be confusing. Luckily! I get what we’re doing. Speaking of which, I imagine I have an A in the class… I don’t recall how weighted things workkkkk so I don’t have it figured out. In programming! I imagine I have an A in that, since, we’ve only had two tests and the first one I got an A on.. I dunno about the second, we see them tomorrow.

Tony’s been missing class a number of times and it’s making me concerned. I asked him about it today and he said he’s not purposely doing it! That’s so sad =( He also said that he probably is failing English, and that makes me sad too xD;

Friday, October 24, 2008 @ 4:40 p.m. marks the day Pleasure gave birth to two kittens! The first kitten (which was born at that time xD) is a boy, and we named him Kaisai! That is sooooo fun to say! The second kitten was born after… 6? We’re surprised that she’s alive. We named her Joy =) I was kinda disappointed that Pleasure only had one kitten, cause I thought she’d have two. And then she had a kitten after we left! Yay! Mommy said we’re probably going to end up keeping both xD But they’re allllllll getting fixed ASAP.

Happy mommy with her babies, Kaisai and Joy.

So, where are the babies?!

Kaisai and Joy look just like their mommy!

Speaking of Mommy, her babies’ daddies are withholding her babies from her. It is sad. I miss Caitlyn =( Of the reasons I know, I think it’s really stupid that Rob would say they can’t be there because it’s unsanitary, and because Mary was going to a christian preschool. The place was even dirtier when he lived there, and at least a christian surrounding would positively influence them. I mean, the courts believe that it’s better for the children to be with a parent instead of at day care and yet, what is Rob doing?! Sending them to day care! Another thing is that both Rob and Mary Ann are not physically fit to keep them under control. Gr =( I don’t really know what Daddy’s problem is. I get that he doesn’t want Lisa and Nathan to be alone at home. I get that he doesn’t really want them around my mom’s current boyfriend(s). But saying that Mommy can’t be trusted and that everything she does has ulterior motives? Come on. How could she be plotting things with hidden motives when she can’t even comprehend things at that level? Neither of us are capable of thinking that a person is doing something with an intent beyond the face value.

On a much more happier subject! Albert and I are doing very well. Albert’s trusting me moreeee and I’m being more opennnn and he’s being pretty positive for October! I’m just really happy that I’ve finally gotten to the point where I can tell him everything. And the trust thing is awesome. Not cause I’m gonna go off being untrustworthy xP It’s because! I don’t have to worry about being wrongly accused. That worry probably made me seem more suspicious xD But yea, I don’t worry about that anymore.

Tis Been a While

So… I haven’t posted for… 10? 11? days. Uhm… Not that much has actually happened since then though. I now drive myself to the other campus, but I miss driving with Tony. Yesterday, I ended up following him. I wish I had him with me to help me park.. cause my parking sucks. Oh yea, I wanted to browse around for parking tips..

My classes are doing okie dokie. I’m kinda slacking in my studying though, so I feel kinda unaccomplished.. so, I ought to stop procrastinating for once and feel more accomplished… easier said than done =D

I haven’t really felt like blogging. Uhm… I wrote my first essay for English and I got it back as an… 89 B, so, I’m gonna try rewriting it, cause we’re allowed to rewrite our essays. Whatever I suppose. I have another one due Monday, but it’s Classification, and I don’t like classification at all. And I have to do research papering… I despise that even more.

Tomorrow I have a test in Programming. Hopefully I own it. Cause I would enjoy that. Next Monday I have a test in Precalc, and I should do better than a C this time. Next Wednesday I have a test too, and it’ll cover 5 chapters! Wooooo!

I am grumpy.

Hm hm hmmmmmm

Well, now I feel like talking of the previous days xD Thursday, I drove to Wilmington with Tony as my passenger. I think it went well. He was saying that it was scary going the speed limit xD Cause yea, he doesn’t. He gives the excuse that his car idles at 35, which, I guess it’s valid. I mean. it is rather old after all. And Daddy’s deemed the little truck mine, bwuahahaha. Too bad I have no knowledge of vehicles. Well. I know how to do one thing! Keep my tires pumped xD It feels so much nicer with them pumped =) It eliminates the squeaking that occurred. We ended up on the rooftop of the parking garage (props to Stephie for telling me that’s what those are called xDD).

So, we got to class in ample time. Once class started! I realized I didn’t have my pencillllll!!!!! *CRYCRY* I <33333 my pencilllll… (Although I need to get a new one… xD) So I used some pen that was conveniently next to my compy =) Mr. teacher is creepy e.e He looks at me and then can’t stop smiling <.<; And then he’ll ask a question, and look at me like he’s asking -me- and not the class. I mean, yea, sure, I know the answer, but that doesn’t mean I’m gonna answer Dx But yea, right after I realized I had no pencil, I realized! I could see my truck! 8D Uhm. Class was uninteresting.

And I drove home fine. Well. I didn’t u-turn very well. Ah well =/ Now I know. 

Friday was math classness. Moriah skipped. Oh yea, Mikefro wasn’t in programming again. How disappointing 3= Uhm uhm uhm. Back to math. It was boring. Yet. Not… or something. Whateves, I don’t really wanna talk about math xD I have a test Monday though. I best study. After math, I went to the financial aid department and they copied the last they asked for. Uhmmmm I should not have to care about money for the next year or something xD So anyway…

I don’t think I have anything else to say =|

Second Ride

Well, when I went over to Tony’s to go to college, it was rainy and Tony was sympathetic and kind enough to drive again =) That made me feel happy. I got his seatbelt to fit me this time ^^ I enjoy riding with him even though his car is a bit dangerous.. Uhm… if the windows are closed, you just continually smell exhaust =/ Also, it’s really loud all the time and it makes you talk funny if the car’s just sitting, like, at a red light.. Makes you sound as if you’re talking into a fan kind of thing xD The other reason aside from rain is that I didn’t clean out the truck well enough for us to fit. He drove through the whole uhm… parking thing.. I dunno what they’re called. Those things where it’s a ‘building’ for parking. We went all the way to the roof with no success.. it’s about.. uhm… six? floors. On our way down, though, there was a space on the second floor =) He was a little irked cause it’s frustrating maneuvering his huge car in a space.. he had to back out and try again four times (or ten in his mind =) ).

Class was fine. I got my account all Wubbzy and purplefied =) That is, I transferred my current theme to school. I are very happy that that worked! Mr. Sunyata spent like… a half hour trying to get his stuff to work xD And then we went over switches. I don’t quite understand, but when I read the book, I will =) He said he’d give us class time to finish our lab two since it’s so long. There’s more variables than there are numbers being processed xDD It’s ridiculous!

On our drive home, there were a lot of cop cars alongside the road. Oh yea! When we were stopped at a red light, this big guy with a big truck yelled over to Tony “WHAT YEAR?!” and I was alll “Ahhhhh! e.e” and Tony said “68!” and then we laughed cause I was startled! And the Big man said sorry. He was big like… I ride a motorcycle big! Or in this case, I drive a monster truck big xD It wasn’t a monster truck, but, you get the idea =) Oh, we also decided that I shall drive us Thursday. Maybe this’ll be more long term than I thought last night xD It’s good for me. I mean, I’m not lonely, he hates driving just as much as me, or I guess more than xD and waiting for him to do his class gives me time to focus on precalc work! That is good. Oh, and I’m getting out of the house just like Daddy says I should.

Once I got home! I cleaned out the truck. There was a lot of interesting things in there. there were these blades that I totally coulda thrown and killed someone with. I also found a lot of other metal plates that could hurt and a utility knifeeee <3333 I don’t think I’ll be keeping that knife with me even though they are very helpful. There’s also a snazzy flashlight, and that I will be keeping in there. There were two car chargers for our cellphones since all motorollas seem to use the same. Oh, and I found out, if you pull this lever thing on the side of the seats, the seats come forward and reveal a small space to hold things! I think our bags could fit there. They were full of blueprint things, so we couldn’t have used them today even if I had found out earlier. I didn’t clear out all of Daddy’s stuff in the little, dirty armrest thing cause uhm… I was afraid I’d mess something up. Oh yeaaaaa. I found out what is in the bed of the truck. There’s a little ecosystem under that cover xD It stinks and the first thing I saw was a tiny creepy crawlie that looked like a chubby, short centipede. Aside from… I’m guessing mulch leftovers that create a nice living environment for bugs, there’s also some sort of toolbox thing and beer boxes.. uhm, canned beer boxes, not from glass bottles, cause Daddy drinks beer from a can!

Well, I think that’s all. I wanna post about two things that Stephie has on her blog, so I think I will tomorrow. I need to get to sleep for college and! I said g’night to Albert a little over ten minutes ago. (Sorry Alberttt ;-; I love youuu <3 I really needed to finish this post now so I wouldn’t lose my spunk.) Albert introduced me to a new song that’s an OP for the anime he just started watching, and it’s helping in making me feel really happy xD Can you tell from my obsessive compulsive smilies everywhere?! =D Anyway. Until tomorrow!

My birthday! <3 And others.

Firstly, Happy Belated Birthday to meeeeee aka Celiaaaaa =D It was the 3rd, and I’m finally 18! My birthday was the bestest birthday evarrrrrr <3 Albert was selfless and extremely supportive, and he made sure I was satisfied alllll dayyyyy ^^ He was also! The very first to realize it was my birthday and say “Happy Birthday!” to me =) I received 2 or 4 more happy birthdays before sleeping =) At school! I got at least two, one from Josh and one from Moriah. I don’t recall if I even saw Tim.. My classes were pleasant anyway. Once I got home, I relaxed a bit, got on iScribble! I have two my birthday themed pics done by my favorite friendssss <3 (First pic, Second pic) Unfortunately, once I was told about the second one, everyone had to go to bed =( I also tried playing on neopets in hopes of getting an awesome random event. While it wasn’t my b-day in Neopian standard time, but it was in my time, I obtained my very first paint brush xD I didn’t get any random events whilst having my birthday theme. Maybe I’ll have better luck on Neopets’ birthday =) I also got two phonecalls and Mommy’s crew visited. I got an icky cake from her as a sub for Daddy being too tired or something. The visit was nice anyway. I don’t really remember my night.

Thursday!~ Programming class was okie dokie. I learned that I had to still submit the labs even if I don’t go Friday. I wasn’t aware of that, but it was okay anyway =) The lab was easy. I like how the teacher reviews everything, lol. I can’t help but laugh when he says “What shall we dooooo” as if he actually has no clue what he’s doing xD I think… he knows what to do, but has to give a really good thought about it first. Oh yea! I had Tony drive me there, lol. It was nice. I enjoy riding with him. Unfortunately! It seems he doesn’t wanna continue doing so. Oh well =( At the very least, it eliminated awkwardness :x The only negative of riding with him is that I get home later, so, less Albert timeeeee. I remembered that I ought to scan my book for Moriah before I left.. I’m so good at being chronological xD Yeaaaa that’s all I’ve got to say. Oh wait! I also returned Grammie’s b-day call. Yea, she was one of the two calls, but she called while Mommy was visiting.

Fridayyyyyy. It was fine. I wented to math and my parking spot wasn’t all that bad. We went over composition functions (f o g or f of g of x xD).. The class took way too much time going over homework =/ It was pretty boring. Math class is boring when we aren’t taking notes. I’m kinda irked that some lameface calculus people are in our class cause they wanna use the easy way of doing things that we aren’t allowed to do. After class I went home and got some papers to take to the Financial Aid department. I talked to the other person that works in there, and he was more helpful than the lady that’s been helping. I ended up having to call Daddy to request a full script thing of all that he paid. But, ah well. We’re closer to being done.

Saturdayyyyy Was Daddy’s birthday! He’s uhm… I think46 but he wouldn’t tell me. In celebration, he made me my birthday cake xD So freaking awesome. Best cake ever :P That’s the only significant thing I remember.

Sundayyyyyy aka yesterday. I remembered that I had two online quizzes to take! Both of my first tries I got one question of ten wrong, but the second time I got all ten right =)

Now for today. I woke up to Grammie calling me and asking if I knew where Mommy was -.-; But at least she woke me up. I woke up late =( I got to college in okay time though. I found out that Dr. Wilson gives quizzes on the readings he assigns. I didn’t read since… I’ve already taken this class (AP English Rhetoric and Composition) and it was much harder than this too. But he takes the best four quiz grades, so it won’t count against me, yay =D About 20 minutes in to class, we had to evacuate cause the k-9 patrol gave a positive to explosive deviceness. We had to stay out for 2 hours, so, just in time for my next class! Math, we spent the whole freaking class going over problems T_T I drew a list of cute rodents in the meantime. Oh yea, class was in a different room. It oddly smelt faintly like skunk =/ But! it had AC and it was much bigger =) Yay for that! OH! And it had -comfortable- desks. The other class has desks for like middle school. They’re cheap on the desks D: But the positive, it pushed the test to Friday instead of Wednesday =) In CA, we did more boring stuff. I found out that the homework said to be due today is due next week, but, oh well, I’m done now =D My first lab’ll be Wednesday 3= Marie got on early! Yay~! Tomorrow, Tony’s having me drive us to wilmington. I was considering calling it off, but I bet it’ll be beneficial.
