In case you missed the subject, today is the last day of my summer vacation. I have mixed feelings about that. I really want school to start, so I have something to occupy my mind. On the other hand, I've come to enjoy working at the Blackwell day after day. It's sort of relaxing just going to work and then coming home to do nothing. My professor assigned reading for the first day of class, so I started that and I realized how much better working at the Blackwell is then longitudinal data. I also cleaned my room which is hateful. I cleaned it up in July as the garbage was knee-high. I've been doing okay at keeping it reasonably clean. Certainly the garbage is nowhere near knee-high, anyway. Back on the subject of the Blackwell. I always complained about working there before, but now it's the only thing that temporarily allows me to escape from myself. It's also where I do most of my socializing. Of course now that school is starting, I'm cutting back my hours there. That means less socializing and more time with myself working. That's all that I feel like ranting about for now. Thank you.

I guess this will be my last summer entry. School starts next week, and it's hard to believe, but I'm looking forward to it. Meredith came last weekend. She was tired. I was drunk. I guess that's all to be said about that. I went home for a couple days, and that was relaxing. I left my phone there, so I'm uncontactable until further notice. I got all the pieces to my digital camera back, though, so I guess I can take picutes again. Of who, you ask? I'm not even sure. It does mean I can finally put graduation pictures on my computer, though. I have a headache, and I don't have anything to say, so I guess this is good-bye. Thank you.

I'm not even sure why I'm writing. I guess I just need something to do. I had 69 hours off from work, and I've been going a little stir crazy. I still have about 15 hours to go. That's not so bad then, I guess. I work five days in a row starting tomorrow. It's sad that I have to use work, which I hate, to escape from myself. During my long hours at home, I have been doing puzzles to keep my mind occupied, and listening to the same song over and over and over again. Sober by Tool, in case you were curious. Two days ago, the play count said that I had listened to the song twice total. Right now, the play count says 120. And that's not including all the times I've listened to it on my iPod before I go to sleep. I would say that in the last two days, I've listed to Sober over 150 times. It really suits my mood right now.

On a happier note, today I deposited almost $1000 in my bank account. It always feels good to have money. Continuing on the positive trend, school starts in a couple of weeks. It'll be nice to have something to distract me. I talked to my advisor recently. I want to graduate on time, but in order to do that I need to write a thesis as well as retake a couple of classes on top of all the other classes I need to take. I confessed to her all of my school-related sins, such as never attending class, never doing homework, blah blah blah. She wasn't very happy about it, but she said that there is still hope for me. She said she was going to find one of those Lindsay Lohan alcohol monitoring bracelets and reprogram it to monitor my going to class. Hopefully, she was speaking figuratively. Who ever heard of monitoring a 23-year old graduate student? Also, I've heard those bracelets are really uncomfortable.

It feels really weird that I'm writing in this again. I used to really like it, and I used to really like reading other people's posts. I have this desire to continue to document my life, but we'll see. It's probably temporary. It's been so long since I've posted, I doubt that these words will be read by any human eyes buy my own, but to continue with tradition, thanks so much for reading.

I suppose I should post since it's kind of pointless having an LJ that you don't post to. I just finished work for this week, and I have two days off until I have to work again. It's busy as all get out next week, and I might die. In other news, my grand proposal is seriously stressing me out. It's due right after Thanksgiving break, and I've barely started. I'm sitting at my computer waiting for Desperate Housewives to start, and then I've got to get some work done on it as well as do my homework for Surveys. Remember when Grey's Anatomy used to come on Sundays? That was great. I'm also listening to all currently published Harry Potter books on audio CD. I'm halfway through Goblet of Fire, which is my favorite thus far. I think about book 7 a lot, and I'm not ready for it to come out. I don't want it to end. There will never be a new Harry Potter book. Is that not the most depressing thought in the entirety of thoughts? That's all for now. Thank you.

I always feel great after I take a test. It doesn't even matter whether I think I did well or not. I just feel this huge sense of relief, like I've reached a major milestone in my life and I crossed it. I have another midterm next week which I thought was this week, but just recently I discovered it was next week, so that was nice for me. I have a lot of homework due this week and next week, though, so that's not so nice. And I hate my job. My feet are going to be permanently damaged. And quit telling me to get better shoes because after four days of standing for 7 hours in a row, it does not matter what shoes you're wearing. Unless of course you're standing in heels for 7 hours in a row, in which case I might tell you to get better shoes. I don't have much else to say I guess. I never really have anything to say nowadays. Not anything that's interesting for people to read anyway. So I'll leave it at this. Thank you.
