i found my mushroom. but it escaped.

i recently found out i'm very weak in english. especially in literature. it's very hard for me to interpret fiction. the consequences of being a realist. hell will freeze over once i start writing my short story. crap.

my plant is not growing. there are no flowers. i waste five minutes of my time watering it. and all it gives me are goddamn leaves. every day new leaves. all the time leaves. i hate green.

i passed the first two long tests in math 18.  i am officially an ME student.  now i only have to avoid D's and F's.  ah, if only life was that simple.

i found a prey.  i want to call it mushroom.  it lingers in one area.

the guys almost took us to counter-striking.  i didn't come.  i fear i'll be dead in five seconds.  then all they'll ever hear from me are shrieks of terror, surprise or anger.  it's not something one would like to hear while fighting for one's own life.

my english essay was peer-edited by some freak.  now i know i'm not supposed to feel discouraged by it but i still do.  the asshole gave me a 60%.  he wasn't even consistent with his comments.  but what the hell.  i'll try to keep in mind his petty remarks.  (i know it's a he based on the handwriting: it was too masculine)

ah, and according to myers-briggs i am an extreme introvert, sensing, thinking (?), and judgmental.

now i have to study for the upcoming third long test and the dreadful midterms.

today we had our freshman orientation. you'd think we've had enough of this but the admin people don't seem to get it through their unbelievably dull heads.

it all started with the open house. that was last february.

then came the preparatory course. three days of june.

third one's the orientation seminar. again, three days of june.

after that, we had a so-called JGSOM night. one long night of june.

and (hopefully) the last one was held this afternoon.

and funnily enough, there was nothing new and/or surprising about this orientation.

with the exception of a rat running around the theater, it was pretty uneventful.

today is faculty day so no classes for us.

the first four official school days didn't suck as much as i had anticipated. in fact it was just as normal as high school. except for the two to four hour breaks wherein i'm stuck watching (and hearing) men on top of cafeteria tables being tortured by men with wide, profane vocabulary and hopelessly-obsessed miami heat fans.

so they won. big deal.

my blockmates are fun. it's such a relief that i get to spend the first two years of my college life with them. the sad fact is that we only have a couple of classes together. (why call it a block?) we've bonded due to the three-day prep course and the three-day orientation seminar. now we spend all our breaks together in the cafeteria. yesterday we were locked in the caf up. eh. now one of us is suggesting a poker night. since all we ever do is play cards. no one really heard him - or no one really wanted to. ha.

so the chairs in our english class have butt impressions. somehow it's nowhere near comfortable. first of all, it's too shallow. and it's too wide for an ass like mine. it's a subtle way of saying i don't have enough flesh in my rear. really, it's uncalled for.

ah well. at least i'm spared of a serious case of culture shock.

today is the first day of our preparatory course. i honestly didn't know what to expect.

we ended up being welcomed to the school by a bunch of very goofy ME students. then we had a 'backward race'. we won our first heat but during the finals, we all fell. i was hurt.

then we made some 'torches' out of scratch paper, skewer sticks, straw and crepe paper. then we were made to sell it at a profit. we walked around the huge campus searching for 'buying stations'. i think we did good.

and, to top it all off, the thing was supposed to end by 4.30 pm. instead, i got in the car at around 6.00.

now my legs are sore from all the backward running and walking under the scorching heat. and my butt hurts from the uncomfortable chairs.

lucky i wore my chuck taylors.

so eric and jeremy failed to win the amazing race,
chris daughtry wasn't named the fifth american idol,
and i can't slide an automatic mitsubishi lancer properly into a parking slot.

it seems i can't catch a break.

but thank the almighty gods for the dallas mavericks - more specifically dirk nowitzki. at least they give me a reason to wake up early in the morning.

i wish i could just curl up in a couch and watch them win the first game of the 2006 finals come friday morning. but alas, i have this school thing. lucky i have a sister to watch it for me.

but watch out game 2 for i'll be back

so my mother and i got into this fight yesterday. we both are too stubborn to apologize so it's all down to pure emotional stamina. i'm not about to cave - yet. but to hell with that.

melissa just got kicked off american idol. that sucks. i really like her. how can ace, lisa and melissa be in the bottom three in one night and kevin gets to wallow in his less-than-deserved title, sex god?

aargh, the irony in this world. it gives me a migraine.

i am extremely pissed. i'm on the verge of suing this place. for the past sixteen years, four months and twenty-four days i have been taking good care of my hair. then after an hour's worth of swimming in their intensely chlorinated water, all that hard work was flushed down the toilet. my hair is literally ruined. i tried everything: intensive conditioning, even the whole hot oil process. nothing works. my hair is dry and sticky. i hate it.
