So for the first time in Rutgers history we actually got the yesterday off. The WHOLE DAY. As in, all classes, not just evening classes. AND we have today off too. I think this must mean that Global Warming is winning or something, but I don't care because DAY OFF!
I was hoping and praying desperately to have tomorrow off because I have a presentation on Tuesday and I really didn't want to present. I praticed with my group on Sunday (during the terrible rain storm that soaked EVERYTHING I own. Water somehow snuck it's way into my snap iPod case and I have no idea how. I guess it was just like "MUST DESTORY THINGS!" But thankfully my sweet, sweet iPod is fine.) And this was me: "So Jayson Blair...bad...new york times....journalismisquotemuffinunethical!"
That's really not much of an exaggeration.
I did however do really productive things today. Like watch the last episode of the Pussycat Dolls search. (Don't judge me! You know you secretly watch that skanky show to. While singing Buttons into a brush and trying out your hoochiest dance moves....just me?)
Also I finally got to see Marie Antoinette. I know a lot of people didn't like the movie, and I guess can see why. But seriously? Why did there have to be plot when the movie was THAT PRETTY? Seriously. I'm saving the movie on my hd just so I can cap it and then recolor and picspam later. It was so pretty! I wanted to marry it and have a million of it's brightly colored, pastry babies.
The Virgina Tech shooting is really, really scary. I go to a big university, and honestly it's not hard for me to imagine that it could happen here at Rutgers. It makes me sad that people can have such darkness in themselves and feel like they have the right to take another person's life.
My heart and prayers really goes out to all the people affected by this tragedy. This is so sad, and scary and horrible. It makes me really sad about the state of the world.
On a less serious, more LJ-RIFIC note? WTF is up with my journal? Have you guys noticed that my journal loads really, really friggin SLOW?!
When I try to check my friend's page it literally takes like five minutes for it to load. That's weird right? Have any of you guys had the same problem? And how did you fix it? It's starting to get really, really annoying. I really want it to load faster but I have no idea how to get it to. Freakin' LJ!
Any help with that would be apperciated guys, really. I would love you forever and ever and ever! Isn't that prize enough for helping?

I am in LOVE with Marie Antoinette. I love it, it's been my constant wallpaper since February, and I also want to have tons of it's pretty pastel babies. Of course, I also covet the shoes. And the dresses. And everything else pretty.

Who doesn't? I can't wait until the semester's over. I figured out how to do screenshots on one of my video programs and now I can cap the hell out of that movie. It's SO PRETTY. I want to watch it over and over again just for the pretty factor. This is the first time I've been so enamoured of a movie just because it's nice to look at.

Hmm, your journal seems fine to me. Everything's loading very fast.
(no subject)
Oh I can't wait to do the picspam. I would expect more picspams now that I've finally figured out how to work the screencapping program on one of my media players. :) Exciting times.
Yea, everyone's been saying that the journal is loading fine. Hmmm...I guess it's just a problem with my computer hating my LJ then. Maybe it wants me to actually get work done. Stupid computer!

My being "productive" included watching LOST and Sports Night! Hehe.
I'm trying not to think about the Virgina Tech thing being able to happen at RU. Because... yeah. Scary.

My being productive meant watching some movies. Seriously. I finally got caught up on Lost awhile back, which is probably what I would have been doing otherwise. I'm glad the show is getting better than the first half of it was, I was starting to lose my drive to watch.

Probably a good idea. It's so scary and sad what happened over there.
Yea it seems like it's a problem with my computer, not my actual lj.

Are you going to Rutgers Fest? I'm not sure if I want to, none of the bands are really....my favorites.
Yeah, I'll probably go. But just because, you know, it is Rutgersfest. A fun time for free stuff. But I really am not crazy about the bands either. Everclear is alright, I guess. I liked them as like a pre-teen though so, yeah, that is weird. I remember they were on one of those NOW CDs. :D Hawthorne Heights has about two songs I like and the rest seem forgettable, at best. I downloaded two of their CDs to prepare for Rutgersfest. Their music keeps randomly coming on and I keep forgetting who it is and being like "why the hell do I have this on my computer" only to discover it is them. So, not crazy about that. And The Roots I couldn't care less about. Not my musical taste. *sigh* I miss last year's Rutgersfest already. OkGo kicked serious ass.
Honestly, Under the Influence of Giants probably sounds better than any of the Rutgersfest bands. Which is odd since DAB never throws better events than RCPC. Too bad I almost definitely won't be going to the DAB Rockfest (or whatever the hell they are calling it). It is my own fault but whatever.
Do you do Ag Field Day? I wasn't on campus last year and I don't think I understand what it is. Like, what is the allure of people setting up booths to sell seeds? From what I've gathered of the day, isn't it just like a place to buy seeds and flowers and the occasional food? I know I have to be missing something.
Oh, don't get me wrong, I am nowhere near caught up with LOST. On Monday I got all the way up to The Man from Tallahassee (3x13). I believe 3x17 just aired. I won't let myself watch anymore LOST or House until finals week because I have FIVE papers I haven't started. Three due the 26th and two due the 30th. Since my first final isn't until the 8th anyway, I need to not be watching TV and actually working. (We'll ignore the fact that I really shouldn't be on LJ right now.) I would say I'd give up Supernatural too, but I can't pretend with such a bold lie. It would it just be insulting my own intelligence since I know me way better than that.
Yea it seems like it's a problem with my computer, not my actual lj.
Uh, is that better? I'm not sure that is a good thing either.
