halloween

well it's halloween. almost kinda disappointing in a way. only seen a handful of people in things that could be somewhat considered costumes. granted my costume isn't all that good as i'm just wearing pj's, but it is at least something. also if you add the fact that i don't really wear pj's when i sleep (i'll leave it at that and let you think whatever you want, 'cause whatever you think you're right about 1/2 the time). now that most of you probably just said to yourself "way too much info", back to the disappointment of costumes. you'd think more college students would be interested in dressing up, unless they're waiting for 2nite.

as for me i get to go to work 2nite. kinda hoping i get done a bit early as there's a party i can go to, or just simply go downtown. if i go to the party i gotta beat the costume i had last year, which i think i can (and some of you are probably wondering what was last year, and those that do know what last years was are wondering how). to this i answer waterpolo. if i go downtown, definately will be a bit more conservative (if i even have a costume, which if i do i think might be a biker or cowboy, not sure). also know that if i do go to the party i'll be a bit self-conscience at first, but also really won't be able to drink that much as the cops will most likely be out in full force tonight. eh oh well (to the being uncomfortable at the party).

with the lack of costumes, it makes me get excited to work somewhere that people dress up, or at least attempt to. to this i am referring to my friend ashley's blog where she mentions the costumes of the people in neighboring cubicles and all (http://musings-of-a-demented-mind.blogspot.com/).

k back to costumes and work. i get to wear one, which i'm probably gonna stay in my pj's. i had called earlier to make sure we could wear costumes again, which they said yes as long as it wasn't gorey or short skirts. bit sad on the gorey part, but told them they didn't need to worry about me wearing a short skirt as i've never had any desire to wear a dress, skirt, kilt or anything similar (and pretty sure i never will). the gorey thing tho is sad, well moreso being scary and such as in high school i kept scaring little kids when i was helping at Trick-or-Treat Street (or soemthing like that, the kids would go classroom to classroom trick-or-treating). i didn't mean to scare them, i just liked painting my face like a bloody skeleton (probably part of my morbidity).

hmmm...maybe i'll have a costume party sometime. altho then i'd have to find people that like to dress up, which could be kinda hard. to me dressing up (or dressing down, whatever) is fun 'cause you can be something you're not for a day/night/few hours, whatever. anyways time to head to class (well at least start getting the momentum to head to class). laters

sleep or up all night???

going along with the last post, i once again may have confused the person at the checkout place at best buy (yes i know i go there too often and spend money), as i got 3 horror movies, 2 disney movies, and a couple of punkish (by my def) cd's. eh oh well

anyways, here i am taking a break from working on my senior project/research and/or advance calc hw. i wonder if i'll eventually learn to not procrastinate so much. i do tend to get things done, but probably not to the best i could. i did get prepared tonight tho after getting off work to pull an all-nighter. on my way home i stopped by the store and got a 4-pack of Rockstars, 4-pack of frappucino's, and a 12 pack of mello yello (i have no intention of drinking them all tonight, i just wanted a variety of caffeine intake).

somewhere i know i've said i don't see how people can both go to school full and and have a full time job. i have a hard enough time doing full time (w/ just 12 credits) and working part time (suppose to be around 20, but this week scheduled for 26 and i currently have slightly over 18hrs and still have 2 days left to work). anyways, yeah not sure how those people could do it. i did try multitasking while at work during that slow times, as i had written some of the advance calc problems in my serving notepad. some people did look at me kinda funny as i stood there looking at my notepad for several minutes, and then looked really funny/confused when i showed them what i was working on. tend to forget there's people out there that really haven't seen calculus all that much.

hmmm....i'm really debating now if i should try to pull an all-nighter or not. it's not even 2am yet and i'm already getting kinda tired (and this is after having a rockstar, frappucino, and a mello yello since 11:30). almost tempted to have another rockstar, or at least another pop (yes pop not soda) and try to get a bit more done, but not really sure if i have the attention span to do so (also hence why i'm typing away here)

ok i should stop typing and try to get a bit more done, or at least go to bed and wake up early to get some stuff done. ok my comp is sounding like it's gonna take off soon (really hoping it doesn't). then again if it does i could probably get a new one :-P oh yeah back to waking up early, if i do i'll end up going and getting a mocha at dunn bros. where most of them at least recognize me and know what i get. i am a bit glad i made it 1/2 way thru the semester tho before going about once a day. but yeah, back to hw or bed, not sure yet

Horror, Horror, Kids

k i definately have too many passwords and usernames considering it took me at least 5 minutes to sign in in order to post since i forgot both the name and password. oh well, it's expected that'll happen or else they wouldn't have a button that says "forget your password"

ever wonder what people at stores at best buy or similar think when you are buying movies? every now and then i do. like yesterday when i went in and bought Black Sheep (it's about killer sheep), 28 Days Later, and Surf's Up. the 1st 2 kinda go together as they're both "horror", but then the 3rd definately doesn't considering it's a kids movie, so it just seems kinda out of place. then again the people at the checkout stands probably see all sorts of things that don't go with the main genre of what a person is buying.

i think it would be a bit more fun to have a bigger stack of movies all of which are horror (say all the Saw, Hostel, etc movies) and then throw in a kids movie just to see if there is a confused expression or not. then again everytime i expect there to be some sort of reaction there usually isn't. depressing i know :-P

anyways, killer sheep pretty funny which is the only reason i bought the movie. the box has the quotes "...possibly the single best midnight movie of its era..." and "not for the weak of stomach"

and well that's all i have, which really wasn't much at all

about time

so i figured it might be about time to post again. yeah i know only took me over 1/2 a year. kinda amazing how things change, like having to create a google account. eh oh well. once again i think i'm gonna try to post more often. whether or not that actually happens is a completely different story.

do i have an actual topic to write about? not really. i do have to say tho that it's kinda entertaining to watch drunk football fans towards the end of a close game (the game i'm mostly refering to is the one that just happened where the cowboys beat the bills by 1 point in the last few seconds of the game). there's always lots of yelling and cheering and lots of other things that people wouldn't do otherwise as they would appear rather odd or out of place. however in a sports bar full of other fans there's no holding back.

now i'm not much of a fan of any team in general. heck i'm not even a fan of watching sports. i prefer to be playing them than watching them. there might be some sports i'd enjoy watching, altho it really wouldn't be the game i'm watching so much as the players.

anyhow, it's kinda late, i got heaps of work to do tomorrow before i head to work. laters
