All in the name of Science.

But not For Great Justice. Too many people I know say that now; it seemed to have occurred almost simultaneously overnight.

*talks to eldest brother online*

Eldest brother: FGJ!

Aleia: o.o;;

*Goes online and talks to Ken*

Aleia: *falls over* ;_;

*UWAC = University Wellness Activities Center. Basically means the place where the campus health center is, along with the gym/gymnasium, and the general room where they have the Xbox locked up in a steel box connected to the shelf under the tv, so people don’t “accidentally” take it. I personally don’t see why anyone would really want to, so yeah.

…

*runs away from avid Xbox fanboys/girls* XD


Oh yeah. I found out on that Social Work APA paper that I stayed up all night doing (….You know, that one the other week. A long time ago. 5 cups of coffee; never doing it again? The one that even I barely remember.), I got 4 out of 5 points for it, and on the last Logics quiz, I got the last question wrong (It was a tricked question o.-), and so got an 80.

Logics: D, D, and a B.

Yeah. I’m still in shock. =P

Mhm. Paper I turned in last week; got 6 out of 10. My bad. =X

But the one I turned in today; I am rather confident in it. And the English paper I have to turn in tomorrow, I think that’s practically an A guaranteed, so yeah. *Grins*

In my recent papers, I find myself quoting Wikipedia in some form or another, which is how/why Wiki finds itself somewhere in my works cited page.

Wiki, how I love thee.


In Logics class, the teacher informed us that there is indeed a flat earth society. I mean, I guess it would make sense; I just never thought or figured that an incredibly ancient ideology, so easily disprovable with today’s technology, would still be as… stubborn and mule headed with some people.

….

Yeah. I dunno about people sometimes. *half grins and shakes head*


Actually, this made me laugh, just because I’m weird like that. XD


Oy. The one class today, we went to the library for a crash-course type tutorial on research. The librarian teaching the class was trying to get us to understand clues as to whether a site was the real deal or not, and amidst her teachings, I came across some… stuff.

Yeah. My sentiments exactly.

Oh, but that’s not the best part. Some poking around on my own got me here, and it took a smidgen of self controle as to not burst out laughing in class.

Yeah, what a day it’s been so far. And it’s not even noon yet. ;P


What, around last Sunday night, my room mate woke me up at 1 in the morning, to tell me that our bathroom was really sick. Because I had been abruptly yanked out of a really weird dream, I took it at face value, as in our bathroom was very physically ill.

For some reason, it scared the crap out of me.

And then a few seconds later, my brain woke up some, and realized she was meaning more along side the lines of gross and messy. (No, you really don’t want to know.)

But yeah. I think five years from now, I’m going to think about that and still laugh out loud. XD



I woke up the other morning, and the first coherent thought that swirled in my mind was that I really don’t see myself graduating from here, from OLLU. It had been something forming in the back of my consciousness, and brought up front by the rantings of my room mate’s friend, about how OLLU was ranked 63 or something like that in colleges; about how the other schools ranked above us were ranked for better education and were much cheaper. So basically, my school is expensive for nothing.

I’m prolly not going to transfer to a different school until next fall semester. For the first time in years, I’ve felt stable in regards to where I’m living. I didn’t realize how much stress that actually caused, living in a constant state of anxiety that you’re going to get kicked out because you’re continuously being told to leave, then having it finally happen, then living in a house constantly filled with tension usually when the head of the household is there (Along with being extremely intimidated by them); shunting yourself around different places for almost a month, then ending up really homeless; more shunting around, then finally finding a steady rock to rest on for a while.

Yeah, I know millions of other people go through that and much worse, and I’m pretty sure that stuffs causes them some level of stress as well, whether they are aware of it or not.

But yeah. It’s a foreign thing for me, to feel safe and secure in knowing that I’m not going to get long term kicked out of my room; not until spring semester is over, anyways.

But I could get booted out if I can’t pay the thousand out of pocket for next semester. But I’ll try not to fret about that till it’s time. <.<;;;


Saw the movie Just Like Heaven.

It was a trap- I mean, a chick flick. *Grins* I didn’t fully realize the implications of the words chick flick until I heard a guy say the movie title out loud.

I dunno. No matter who my company entails, I always get an uncomfortable squirmy/fidgety feeling, during dramatic kissing scenes. I had honestly considered walking out of the theater right at the very end, but Jon Heder perfected the ending, so yeah. I’m glad I didn’t leave.

And if you don’t know who Jon Header is, then you’re a bigger loser than I figured. Gosh!


So. Hurricane Rita. Seems San Antonio is one of the much safer places to be, as people from Corpus Christie and surrounding areas have been told to go to San Antonio. (And a lot of the people from the New Orleans incident are still here, so yeah)

Stuff is supposed to happen Friday-ish, most likely Saturday. I’m not worried like a lot of other people are; I figure if the area wasn’t safe, they wouldn’t have evacuated the coastal people here, yeah?

Mhm. Although there has been mentionings of flooding…

*imagines people ferrying to the food hall*



I talked to my mom last night, and stuff surfaced that I’m trying to deal with. It’s not that big of a deal, but with that and school stuffs, I’ll prolly be MIA internet wise for a while.

I am ok; just…. extremely tired and worn out. *sighs* X_+

And my period is truly slaying me; honestly, if I didn't know any better, I would have figured it was trying to do me in or something.

I would pay for a massage. Or at least give/do just about anything.

*makes her noise* >.<;;;

*sighs* Goodness. *shakes head*


And there you have it.


I was finally able to get to sleep 3:45-ish am, and woke up soon before 7 am. Couldn't get back to sleep because of extreme anxiety, as yesterday wasn’t that good of a day.

…

I think a nap is in order. Before my brain swells to the point of uncomfortable-ness that'll have it up and walking out of my head, just for breathing space.

*whispers* When the printer in the one computer lab prints out papers, it makes a noise that sounds like baby chicks. Honest to goodness.

...

*Grins* In the name of Science!
