read a day in the life of me...or the week or the last couple months...its really up to you... ***************** UPDATE: ill have a song lyric everyday...see if you can figure who it is or where it comes from...no pictures yet but my guestbook is good to go so check it out and sign it...

"i, i'm so in love with you...whatever you want to do...is all right with me...cause you make me feel so brand new...and I want to spend my life with you...they say since, baby, since we've been together...loving you forever...is what I need...let me be the one you come running to...i'll never be untrue..."

friday...chem in the morn...afterwards i went home and watched pulp fiction...that's a damn good movie...ill never get tired of watching it...not only does it have an all star cast but the soundtrack is just as kick ass...after the movie i ran some errands and then i headed to angelo's to help him with some bio...one of our friends birthday is coming up so we went to buy gift for her...

when i finally got home i had a headache creepin...i know its from the lack of sleep so went to sleep for a few hours...when i get up i get a call from my friend glenn...it seems he'll be back in town for a few days...bad news though, i found out im working on one of my houses this weekend...

"i'm going under, I'm suffocating..drowning by I'm holding on...what keeps me breathing?...don't have an answer...away now, no way out...away now, no way out...i've been a walkin' a lonesome highway...i felt as though I had no home...my bed's been taken by another...i made the bed, now i lie alone..."

*ring ring* my alarm goes off this morning and i absolutely did not want to get up...my body felt exhausted...yeah it didnt help that i had only 3 or 4 hours of sleep last night...it was a battle to defeat my reasoning to stay in bed and eventually get up...i had bio in the morn and nothing happened in class...DAMMIT! i should have stayed home...after class i went back home and straight to bed...i woke up around noon and thought to myself, "ahh i got class in an hour"...well bio lab was delicious today...everyone brought in fruit...name the fruit we probably had it...anyways the lab tech brought in some fruit non-native to the u.s., its called durian...the fruit is huge and the outer covering is brown and spikey...inside its fleshy with a pale yellow hue...intially it had a mango texture to it but as you got deeper into it, it became a banana mushy consistency...the flavor was unique as well...mix of banana, passion fruit and something else...it had the weirdest "meaty" after taste...yes i said "MEATY"...it's a whole friggin meal in this one fruit...hey its all about the experience, just trying something new and different for my tastebuds...i just ate all types of fruit the whole lab time...heheh we need more labs that deal with food...

remember when i said i was gonna go to the gym more often...well today i went back for the first time in months...it felt good to be back but i have to be more consistent...ive just been so busy with school...i guess i just have to make time...

as usual im up late...just trying to finish a chem lab for tomorrow morning...where does the time go?

"canary yellow seven house of business on display...my nigga bungle whipped it up so I gone get my rims today...so a nigga can ride out to the colorful hideout...i'ma show you how to wild out like jack trippa...let me be bambino on your snippas...ykk on yo zippa lick you like a lizard...when I'm slizzard or sober 6 million ways to fold ya...like Noah I get crews to choose and you get pretty deep...but i'll call yo ass round 8-ish I know you'll be there for me..."

this morning i turned in the take home test for chem...a whole bunch of us met up at the library before class to "compare" answers...you could say it was practically a group test...yup she wont be giving out any of these any more...after chem i went home to work on a physics lab and homework that are due tonight...

well physics tonight was actually cool...not the lab work, but the professor...he was working out equations on the board and he asked us for the answers...if someone gave the right answer he would throw chalk at them...so eventually when the majority of us had chalk in our possession, the next course of action would be RETALIATION...so with his back turned to us we would peg him back with the chalk...he should have thought of the consequences, before the first piece of chalk left his hands...yeah physics was fun tonight...

now im at home working on this bio lab journal due tomorrow...i never EVER have enough time...im up everynight till 1 or 2...jeez...

"you brace and hold it all inside...it's more than you can stand...no one around even tries...tries to understand...don't turn away...don't turn away...come out swinging...come out alone...they're in your way..but as long as you're swinging...strong then you'll get by..."

bio in the morn...how i manage to make it to this 730am class every tuesday and thursday, i just dont know...im not a morning person...the mug that i drink out of every morning says it all, "i hate mornings"...yes but day in, day out i get up...my hair in every direction, stomach growling, eyes crusted with "eye boogers"...and i do my best...hey its the least i can do...

well its been raining everday now...more in the morning then it clears a little in the afternoon...yeah i think some storm is supposed to be coming...it was hailing earlier today, almost looked like snow on the ground...well after my bio class i went to the chem lab...i had to do some titrations...im mixing all these solutions and then i spill a little NaOH on my hands...my hands begin to hurt and then feel soapy...uh, not a good thing...strong base on skin = bad...anyways i was being tortured the entire lab...not physically but verbally by these 3 middle-aged women...they were giggling like little girls...the values that they were getting were 69's...so they kept on saying "haha another 69, we're so horny"...ahh my virgin ears...they were doing their experiment right across from me so i heard everything...my ears were bleeding...i needed to take a cold shower when i got home...im gonna have nightmares tonight...

well i just finished completing my take home chem test...man that was a beech!...i still need to meet up with some people so we can *cough* compare answers...

"all this time that i felt like this won't end...ones for you and I'll taste what I could never have...its from you all those times that I tried...my intentions, full of pride...and I waste more time than anyone..."

well i just got caught up with weeks worth of blogs from my fellow GBM-ers...and im suprised that two of them have called it quits or shall i went into an inactive status...i salute you my fellow GBM-ers and look forward to your return if you choose to do so...well im pretty sure me and dan will keep it going...i want to keep it alive cause its not only a journal that ive always wanted to do but im learning something that interests me...all this cool webstuff...but i can understand the reasons for not continuing...all this updating takes up lots of valuable time...

what can i say about mondays...they're just bleh!...chem in the morn was ahrite...the professor handed out our take home tests...this is going to be interesting...she has to know that we're all going to cheat off each other...this is going to be her first time to give out a take home test, and it might turn out to be her last...she made the test extra super difficult...only four problems but they each have parts "a" through "z"...this is going to take up lots of my time...i think it might have been easier for her to give a regular sit in test...that way she wont worry about cheating too much...oh well...

at night i had the hardest time finding parking at school...it took me a whole 30 minutes for someone to finally give up their spot...during all this time i was thinking in my head "screw it, just go home"...it sounded real good, but i knew that i can't miss any of these physics classes...well so i strolled into class 30 minutes late and the professor asks if i want my test...whoa! i totally forgot that i took a test in this class this week...when i turned the paper over there was a phat "B" on it...i was stoked...i didnt think that i did this well, but hey you dont hear me complaining...my friends that have taken the class say the tests get progressively harder so the grades in turn drop dramatically...i think i started pretty strong and now its time for me to maintain...

"woke up this morning and the sun was gone...turned on some music to start my day...lost myself in a familiar song...closed my eyes and slipped away..."

this morning my bro asks me who's car is that in the driveway...i tell him its mine of course i always park it there...he's like no the other one...oh that's dad's new car...WHAT!?...yeah and its about friggin time...so we all take a ride in it to church...he complains how small it is...well what do you expect its a civic...

after church i give my bro a haircut...ive been his barber for years now, and he's been mine...funny thing, our dad used to give us haircuts when we were younger, then my older bro took over...since he's in florida now...i assumed the role...yeah whenever i get a haircut i think of all the dough that ive saved...if you think about it a regular haircut costs about $7...and getting one every week or two slowly adds up...im no pro barber or anything so dont come knockin' on my door for a haircut anytime soon...

the reason i enjoy giving my bro a haircut is because its one of the few times that i actually get to talk with him one on one...we dont do this often so i try to take advantage whenever i can...so we jabber about stuff and i get to thinkin...my bro doesnt really talk to me, i think my sis opens up to me more often...what i would really like is for them to feel comfortable to come to me with anything...i know how it is when you dont have that someone to talk to...i was in that situation for quite some time...

well for lunch my mom tried making some fish tacos and they were slammin'...simple and easy to put together...so easy that even my lazy ass can do it...yup i think ill be having them more often...well after lunch i took a nap that turned into a two hour sleep...sometimes i dont know how tired i am until i lay down on my bed...i eventually got up to do some homework...i started on my physics and right away on the first problem i got stuck...i must have spent an hour just staring at it thinking this is supposed to be easy...i get my little bro to look at it and he scribbles on paper and then says use this equation...i look down, what the heezy...thats its thats all i need...yup...you should have gone to another problem he says...but then i explain to him that i dont work like that...i must go in order and i cant proceed to the next problem unless i figure it out, especially if its the first problem...yeah im just weird like that...
