little moments of happiness

Another day at school, which means another blog post. Now, you may think that this means the post will be about nothing. Which is...
Possible,
maybe even
probable.
But you are still reading, are you not? At least I am starting to use these cool little editing techniques to make my posts look cooler. Makes for an interesting read. Or at least a less boring one.

Well, yesterday, as I stated before, was way too loooong. And then you have the fact that I had to go back to school today. Bummer, right? Totally. A few things did make things better yesterday. Like hanging out with people at the Hayden Library. I know, I know, I went someplace other than the institute. Gasp. But its okay! I was back there after my chemistry class! Anyways... I really like the Hayden Library. Its chill, underground for the most part. The only part that I'm ever going to go in is, anyways. This means that even though its Arizona, and extremely bright outside... Almost ALWAYS, you can have nice walls made out of widows completely, AND be able to see. Now that's a nice thing.

Really
really
nice.

And I got a mountain dew while there. It was pricey, but it had caffeine! Something they don't sell in the institute's vending machine. Very disappointing.

Ironic things also happened. Monday, in my english class, someone mentioned the Environment Arizona people that hang out around Hayden Lawn and come up and ask you if "you have time for the environment." And how if you have to get somewhere, and you say
"no"

it automatically seems like you hate the environment. Now, I'm not someone who is going to parade around telling people that they are sinners for driving a car and putting out carbon emission. Or to just spray a bunch of aerosol cans for the heck of it. But then again, I'm not a believer of global warming. In fact, I'm writing an essay on how it doesn't exist. I just don't think that you should get all up in someones face for it. But anyways, I was talking to a friend about this on the way to Hayden, and what do you know... Some kid comes up and asks us if

"we have time for the environment"

So we stopped, and asked if there was anyway for us to help the environment which didn't include us giving money to their organization. And do you know what his answer was?
He didn't know of any.

Yeah, real aware person there. I could tell you several ways to "help the environment." And I don't even go around wearing a shirt advocating it. If you want to do that, then be aware. Otherwise you'll just look like some dumb person who got sucked into it. Which he probably was. Although it was entertaining and ironic.

But that by far wasn't the best part of my day. Earlier in the day, I was really craving panda express. So you know what I did? I went to panda on the way home from school. Got myself an egg roll, double orange chicken (didn't feel like choosing another one), chow mein, and a fortune cookie. And it was delish, wonderful... So worth the seven bucks. Yumm... And it satisfied my panda craving for probably a good two weeks. Yay!

What did my fortune say, you ask?
"You will find good fortune in love."

So, from the last post, you probably gathered that I did not study for my chemistry test. Well, I've now taken the test and graded it based on the key that was posted online. I got a 22 out of 25, which counts as an A- in the class.
Not bad...
...but not great.
I could have gotten 24 out of 25, if I had read the questions closer. They were stupid little mistakes. And that bugs me. A lot. Which means next time, I am going to read the test closer, and maybe study. But only maybe.

Oh, and my tuesdays are way to long. Eleven hours. That's nearly half a day, which is nearly half of the earth's complete rotation around the sun, which is 1/730th of the earth's rotation on its axis completely. Which is way too much time spent at school.
So, I have a chemistry test today. In twenty minutes, actually. Am I prepared? No. Am I with a group of people who are preparing? Yes. Am I participating? Not really.

I love college.

(Oh... And apparently your blog posts don't have to have titles. So cool.)

College, part deux

College. I know that my last post was mostly complaining about it... and I still hold to the fact that its not as great as its hyped up to be. But... Some things make it better. Like the people. I love the institute. They are all really nice. And then you have the dollar lunches at the institute. They are good - and cheap. Another high point is only having a class once or twice a week. Its soo nice... Although that's still too much for my taste. Maybe it will get better with time. Then you have lots of boys. :) lots and lots of boys. But sadly, lots of them are married. Its scary how many people are married or engaged... Out of my friends who graduated with me in may. For sure, I know of one who's married, and at least five who are engaged. How creepy is that? I know of someone who is still at mountain view who is engaged. Now I just find that insane. How could someone be engaged in high school. Like really? Are you insane? But that's just my opinion. A strong one, but an opinion. So don't go hatin' because I said that. Isn't the point of a blog to speak your mind? So that's me speaking mine. And if I'm married in a year (which is very, very, very unlikely), who cares. That's life.

And technically this is is post three...
...but deux just sounds so much cooler.
