Okay, William wanted to know what I wanted for christmas so here it is.


Amazon List  (The things on this amazon list are specific  things that I want, not general.)

Small, good quality digital camera  (So that when I go to parties and stuff I don't have to carry around mommy's big camera, but can still get good quality pictures.)

Nice set of drawing pencils  (I like to sketch, but all I have is my writing pencils and they don't draw very well.)


There you go.  That's all I could come up with that I want at the present time.  Well, all that I want that others can get for me.  There are some things that I want but would want to pick them out for myself at the store.

My sister and I decided to make a story by going back and forth. Here's what we have so far.

So aside from still coughing my lungs out, I'm feeling marginally better.  I have my voice back, I feel awake, and my stomach has stopped churning everytime I think about doing something or eating.  Food still tastes funny, but at least I can get it down.  I think finally having a weekend to myself helped quite a bit.  Still, going back to the doctor on Wednesday and hopefully getting a culture done to find out what exactly is causing me to be ill.

 

 

    

 

Ok, so you've probably heard me say this before, but there are a TON of idiot drivers here in Tallahassee.  Just today on my way home I was behind at least three different idiot drivers.  The first one saw the speed limit sign that said 45mph and decided to go 35mph.  Then, when another car turned onto the road, from a side road on the left hand side, turning to go the opposite way than the us, the guy in front of me decided to slam on his brakes and continue down the road at 20mph, finally turning off the road some five-seven miles later.  Then another car gets in front of me and sees the speed limit sign and decides to go about 30mph instead of the 45mph.  He finally turns off and just as I'm starting to reach the speed limit, another car comes zipping up a side road and pulls out directly in front of me without stopping at his stop sign, and proceeds to cruise along at 30mph, causing me to yet again hit the brakes.


Why can't people just obey the rules of the road and show courtesy to other drivers????  Is it really to much to ask???


   

So I'm trying to come up with something that I can write about every week that won't be too long.  Something that I could convince the Havana Herald to publish.  So far the only thing I have come up with is "The Adventures of a Tallahassee Squirrel".  But even with that title I can't seem to come up with any adventures for the squirrel.  :(  Any ideas anyone?  (And no, mommy, I'm not going to write about my adventures as a student.  I don't have any adventures as a student.)

I was looking at the projected path for hurricane Hanna, and it just doesn't make sense to me.  It looks like it turned around and is head back the way it came, but they still say that it is going to go up the east coast.  To do that it would have to completely turn around and with the cold front and high pressure areas pushing it away, I don't see how it is going to do that.  Now, I realize that I'm not a meteorologist, but it really doesn't make sense that a storm would turn completely around and head towards a high pressure area. 


But, then again, it also doesn't make sense to me how parking at TCC could be even worse this semester than it was before when there is now a five or six story free parking garage on campus. 


  

 

Well, I auditioned for Singing in the Rain, but didn't get a callback.  That probably means that if I do get cast, it probably won't be a speaking role.  Bummer.   :( 




    

Well, this was the last essay of the summer term.  It's really a letter, not an essay.  I was supposed to write to future students of the class about how to get an F in the class.  Enjoy.

Now I'm going to review my spanish before the next semester starts.  This semester's spanish is going to be difficult, since it's conversational spanish.  Not just learning verbs, nouns, and conjugation.  Now I have to be able to actually use it in a conversation.

I just finished all of my school assignments, and it's not even nine o'clock yet.  That has got to be a record for me.  Also, I think the teacher messed up one of the questions.  I'm not for certain sure, but I'm pretty sure.



   

Here is essay numero cinco.  

I find myself writing more essays in history then I did when I took english.  Two of them were summaries of lectures, and two of them are about a book that has a setting in history in some way or another.  And the ones about the book are worth more than the ones about the lectures.  Go figure.  I have to write an essay every week for this class.   


I'm learning English in a History class.  It should be a double credit class.


And they tell me that community colleges are much easier than regular colleges.  Yeah right.



  

 

I finally got my headshots!!!  Yay!!!


In other news, I'm still working on my astronomy tests and history essay.


I'm also starting to get seriously annoyed at the boys and Catherine.

 

So this weekend I have 3 take home tests for astronomy, research about global warming for astronomy, a 1000 word essay for history, and ushering at TLT.  



It's going to be a long weekend.

I was wondering the other night, why do people watch television?  Sure, it entertains, but why do they really watch it?  I find myself getting bummed out and depressed when I watch shows and movies lately.  Yet, I still continue to watch.  



Then again, maybe people really do watch it just because it's entertaining.




And maybe I'm just an irrational person.  




Or something like that, anyway.




 

 

I hate essays.  Here's number four.  Two more to go.

Mommy gave me a challenge: to prove statistically that it would be safer for me to have a motorcycle.  Unfortunately, I can't find any statistics about scooters, but here is what I can find and form about motorcycles.

( Motorcycle statistics )

How do you find movies to watch that you think you will like?  What are some of the criteria that you look for in choosing the next one that you watch?

 

Me, I look at a couple of different things.  For instance, I look at the name of the movie.  If I’m scanning titles and see something like “Hide and Seek” I’ll almost certainly skip it in favor of the one called “Hitman”, because it sounds more like my kind of movie.  Sometimes, though, I’ll see an actor that I think did a good job and I’ll search for other movies that that actor has played in.  For example, I liked Steven Seagal in “Above the Law” so I went and found more movies that he had acted in.  While they weren’t of the same quality as the first one, they were all the same basic type of movie that I happen to enjoy. 

 

So, how do you choose your next movie?
