Countdown to...everything!

The end of the quarter is approaching, that why my blogs are getting few and far between. I have finals in two weeks and Spring Break the week of March 17th! I cannot wait! Knowing me, I will probably get some more hours in to save up a little $, just in case I cannot work that many hours in the Spring Quarter, depending on how I configure my schedule.

The big concert for the Men's and Women's University Choruses is on Sunday, which is hard to believe. I just hope and pray that my cold is gone by then. It should be.

I missed 3 of my 4 classes on Monday on account of it. My body felt so weak that I couldn't make it through the rest of the day with classes. I just went to my 9 am Managerial Accounting class, and then to my Doctor's appointment at 10:30. After picking up my medicine, along with some orange juice, a bagel and some chicken noodle soup, I made it home around 12:30. Went to sleep for a few hours and got up to begin studying for my Stats exam that I'm going to take in a few hours. I think that I'm prepared.

Not much has occured today, except for the drastic drop in temperature that made it cold enough to snow, and its still snowing outside as I type this.

Damn Netscape! I ended up posting the same entry twice! Oh well, it will just have to stay then.

Last night was my second concert as a member of the University Women's Chorus. We, along with the Men's Chorus performed "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." I heard the song before-well, the melody anyways-but didn't know the name of the song, let alone the lyrics. It sort of goes like this:

Glory, Glory Halleujah!
Glory, Glory Halleujah!
Glory, Glory Halleujah!
His truth is marching on!

I hope that I don't get in trouble for posting lyrics without permission. Sound like something from Business Law class; which also reminds me, that I need to read the next chapter so I can follow along duirng tomorrow's lecture. Thank goodness that is my only class tomorrow! Business Stats is cancelled! I'm afraid for Tuesday, because I have my second exam in that class. I need to study all weekend pratically.

The mind is beginning to wander; guess that's my cue to get out of here.
Might as well link to a pic thatI made while I'm at it. Trying to learn how to use the erase function on PhotoImpact

Well, it looks like I have to continue explaining this exciting, busy, yet confusing weekend right here since the last entry was pretty lengthy.

Well, anywho...
Yea, the old guy was looking at us crazy and I got up and briefly told Justin about it. I told him in so many words: "If I try to throw a punch at him, grab me." I was that heated. I just don't enjoy it when people continously look at me or any of my friends strange. After I moved, he continued to turn around. After a while, Justin made this "turn around" signal at the guy with his finger. Eventually the guy moved a row or two up and got the hell out of there. We were content from then on-the Bearcats won. I called myself flirting with dude in the Bearcats jersey. The end. Well, not quite; some of us went to Steak and Shake around 1am to get desert. I got home around 2am.

And then there was Saturday! My girl Mary and I decided to hook up and hang out Saturday afternoon. We met Downtown, and I got to see that one guy (Dave is his name) again. He got me a bear, some candy and a card for V-day. It was a sweet gesture. Mary told me that he still wants to get on with me; but he doesn't say much from the two times that I've seen him. If somebody is quieter than me, then something's wrong. I am sill wondering what happened to the other David (the NKU cutie) went to. Maybe I should email him to see what's up. But I don't wanna seem like I'm buggin' him though. There is always that fine line between concern and annoyance.
Well, while out on our excursion, Mary's brother Alexx picked us all up; it was Mary, myself, Mary's lil' sis, Mary's boyfriend, and David. All of us was squished hella close in his car; his car reminds me of some car that you would see in The Fast and the Furious! It was hella cool!
While at Northgate mall, I applied and got approved for a credit card at Olstermann Jeweler's. Maybe the next time that I could get out there, I'm going to purchase a dressy watch to replace the old one that got broken. It's my first credit card by the way. :) I'm sure that I can handle it, as long as I don't go on a jewelry shopping spree.

After that, Mary and I went to a baby shower of her brother's girfriend. It was nice, although a lot of people decided to show up at the last minute, but it was nice nonetheless. Later that night, Mary stayed over my house but we fell asleep around one.

It was cool hanging out with her though, and with my other friends on Friday. And to top it off, the Janet Jackson concert, live from Hawaii on HBO Sunday night- a kick ass way to end the weekend!

I didn't even know that today was President's day, until I found out yesterday from my friend Mary that she had the day off from classes. I think that most normal people are out today. I wish that UC was out today.

I dislike Mondays anyways; especially when I stay up late the night before. I had a legit excuse though. The Janet Jackson: Live from Hawaii concert was on last night. Is it okay to say: best live tv concert ever? I think so! :) Made me wish that I was there! One of these days, I'm definately gonna get some tickets to one of her concerts; even if I'm in the nosebleed section- as long as I'm in there! The energy of the fans is unbelievable- I just want to experience it one time; that would make me content. Watching that concert was a great end to a jam-packed weekend. All starting with Friday afternoon....

I met up with my girl June Friday afternoon at the Starbucks on East campus, located in University Hospital. It's amazing where they still find room for more Starbucks, although it seems as if they have supersaturated the market enough as it is, well, physically with their buildings popping up on every corner. :P I'm not much of a coffeee drinker, so I got a Caramel Apple Cider. It was good! I may buy one today before going home, just to make the Monday a bit more bearable. We sat around with some other people and cracked jokes and talked for like 2 hours. I was just happy to see people that I recognized. I've been in a rut this quarter, trying to keep up with classes and trying to stay positive about everything, it was comforting to take it easy and chat with some friends.

After leaving from East Campus, June and I went back to my house to hang out for a little bit and wait for our buddy Tina, whose birthday was Friday! Happy Birthday! She invited us to go to the b-ball game. Bearcats won by like 50+ points; 'nuff said. Except I was trying to flirt with this one guy that was sitting close by June and I. His Bearcats jersey caught my eye- I couldn't contain myself. :P

But there was this old guy there that was getting on my last nerve cuz he was looking at June and I really crazy and ish. I hate to say it like this but here it goes: it probably had something to do with me being Black and June being Asian and the rest of the peoples we were hanging with were Caucasian. I really didn't care cuz for one, they're my friends and two, that would be petty just to think of them just by color. But the older man had a big problem with it. BIG.

Here's an image from that envy.nu site that never got off the ground. Every time I've been cheking my site lately, it wouldn't load. Maybe they are upgrading the site. Who knows.

Compare and contrast:

Okay, a friend sent me this and I forwarded to a email forum that I'm a part of through webzine and received a more accurate version of the info, with slight variations in numbers. Check this one out.

It's all in the numbers, baby.

By the request of my girl Cass, here is a page of some of my newest creations for your viewing pleasure! Oh yea read my bio that I'm working on for this site too.

And now, for the news:
I am so glad that my last midterm was on Tuesday. I didn't do so well on the ones I've got back so far: Managerial Accounting, and Business Stats II (which I made mass calculating errors on!)
I need to buckle down and do some more studying. I could do some right now, now that I think about it. But I'm on the verge of yawning again though. I need to get some sleep in a few.
Its been a stressful week so far, been spending extra hours at work in the afternoon to catch up on some work, and to make some extra money until I get my check in the mail next month. I should get backpay because some documents that I sent off in January got lost in the mail. That alone made me fustrated. From now on, I'm going to either fax or hand-deliver important information.

I was supposed to blog about something else, but my train of thought has left me for now. Later peoples.
