-"School is evil..." March 6, 2007

...Not that we don't all know that, but still.
And it's not even my classes that are the problem. It's my sister's. She had a report due for Japanese History due today, which she got done, but her computer is in the shop so guess who's she used? Mine, of course. I couldn't tell her no, it was school work but I was without my computer all afternoon/night. And for me to without the internet for that long is...upsetting. All of my reading material and several projects are on my computer and while I did have other things to do, I was twitching the entire time to get back on.
Still, she got it done, I edited it and everything and she shuffled off to class on time.
Sadly, my reading assignment for my class was under my computer the entire time and I didn't know it and was trying to be polite and not shuffle through my stuff on top of her. It's not bad though. It's not like we were quizzed on it or anything.

-"Gonna die..." March 14, 2007

...But not before I kill my sister. She's pulled all nighters for the past three nights in a row and has managed to ruin my sleep doing it. So I'm exhausted. I've a thrumming headache and am just irritable in general. My sister calls me the antichrist when I'm in this kind of mood, which is funny even if I don't believe in all that farse. She is extremely grateful, however, that I'm not violent yet. She says she's gonna let me sleep tonight, which would lovely. Last night I bailed to Sarah B's bed because she was up with Helen all night. And while I am eternally grateful, I still didn't get much sleep. Strange bed and all.
So I'm going to go veg and try to get my head together for that test I have in German Drama tomorrow....

-"Ahhh...peace <3" March 15, 2007

Amazing what the simplest things can do to turn your life around.
Or at the very least my mood.
While yesterday I was extremely snappy, as Helen can attest to, today I feel positively divine. I've had a full night of uninterrupted sleep, blessed as it is, and while I did not study for my German literature test this morning, I have spent sufficient amount of time on the subjects covered in other courses that I found it ridiculously easy despite my mind attempting to escape on several occasions. Oh, and I had a long hot shower that gave me that happy squeaky clean feeling.
But what made me really and truly happy today...was painting. I've been feeling awful this week (Gee wonder why?) and so haven't gotten much done. But today, after my test (and before the steaming shower) I spent and hour and a half in the back room of the art building hunched over meticulous details of a tiny still life. As irritated as I was that the paint didn't want to go on the canvas as thin as I would have liked, it turned out marvelous (at least in my opinion) and I am so thrilled to have gone. It's odd, spending 90+ minutes in a small room being irritated by detail made me near giddy with joy. *happy sigh* I love painting.
