*is cold & tired but still awake*
Ugh... some bad things happened since I last posted. Okay - to begin.
Philosophy.
I talked to Al Pollock about it, and he said I couldn't miss all the Thursday classes. Then I found out we might not be doing anything important every second lab class in Mechanics, so I'm now thinking of asking my Mechanics teacher if I can either miss one out of every two Mechanics labs or if I can be switched into the other program. Things to do next time I see him.
Haven't checked my e-mail which should hopefully have a response from Judy about me taking Cal II & English over the summer but the people in the TV room don't seem to have any problems with it.
Yesterday I went to PTY, which was fun. We painted for an art show at Algonquin college and when my piece gets back from the exhibit I'll take a photo of it with my camera and post it on-line.
The way back was hell - we were half an hour late finishing as I thought Pat was getting a ride with me but Pat wouldn't leave without Jaz, but then Jaz was really late finishing and then took a long time getting ready, then it turned out Pat wasn't going with me and so I was really late getting to the pick-up spot for my mom, who then apparently decided to go home without me, leaving me stranded in downtown Ottawa. it was about 10 after 10 by the time I'd figured this out (of course I waited about... fifteen minutes) and I only figured it out once I called my dad who then told me to take a bus home and hung up on me. I got to walk to Wellington to wait half an hour for the next bus back to Aylmer and then my usual 15 minutes home as I had no quarter left to call for a ride from the McDonalds (my family's normal plan when it's cold/bad weather).
Today - I left around 5 to go to Rideau, looked around a lot of stores and finally get soem food (I only had interac and I didn't want to use the machine as it charges me $3 and I get more money than I want out.) So instead I had wonderful cheese bread & A&W chicken burger for supper. Then I was nearly falling asleep (I'm exhausted) and so I fell asleep several times on the bus, managed to be awake for my stop, got off and fell over into a snowbank. Was helped up by a kind person getting off the bus with me, then I stumbled the 15 minutes back to my house.
On the plus side? I went to all my classes today.
I really have not had enough sleep over the past... heck for a long long time now... like three years. I don't think since... about when I met Nicky have I ever been fully rested. I'm always depending on the levels of caffeine in my system to keep me awake lol. Today I started my no caffeine diet & i'm going to stick with it. My banned list of soft drinks currently is...
Coke
C2
Pepsi
Diet Coke
Diet Pepsi
Barqs Rootbeer
Dr. Pepper
my accepted list
Mugs Rootbeer
Sprite
7-Up (though ewwww)
A&W Rootbeer
C Plus
Crush
Ginger Ale
I plan to eliminate all soft drinks from my diet sometime soon - but for now I am sticking to the ones with caffiene so that I can break my caffiene addiction first then break off from soft drinks rather than doign both at the same time.
My diet/sleeping pattern have all been shot to hell over the past week or so.
I went for three days (Th-F-Sa, last week) on two chicken thighs and a handful of fries. And since about noon yesterday I've had a can full of pringles, a loaf of cheesebread and an A&W combo. i've been going to bed at the earliest 12:30am (changing that tonight as I am off to bed at around 10:45pm) and sometimes not until 5 or 6 am... even had two all nighters.
Anyways - I'm really thirsty so I'm getting water, then I'm going to bed.
*hugs to Andy*
Laterz all!
