8:15 p.m.
[Currently Rocking]: Newly d/l'ed Louis XIV, Franz Ferdinand, Keane, The Killers. I'm way excited about the first two specifically. They've got a very raucus, raunchy sound that I enjoy muchly. I discovered Louis XIV at last Sunday's trip to Soundwaves w/ Mr. P. They have an interesting album cover.

Thursday Happenings & Observations: In the am: 2 World Comm II quizzes & 1 Lit III quiz. Got annoyed, as usual, with the overabundance of hipsters in Lit III. Can't they give regular answers? I mean, gatdamn. They're all about the roundabout I'm-so-cultured-&-pedantic-that-I-get-twisted-up-in-my-own-circular-logic-that...What-was-I-saying-again?...Oh-yah...Something-profound answers. Bitches. One day, I'm going to go to class wearing a Britney Spears tee-shirt and carrying a Wal-Mart bag. Then I'm going to respond to one of Lowery's questions while eating a steak and prefacing my answer with a (false) declaration that I voted straight ticket Republican in October. In one fell swoop, I will offend all of their pretentious sensibilities. Maybe some of them will run out of the auditorium crying...and maybe some of them will admit to voting Republican. Maybe one of them will wrestle me for the steak. Hipsters always look hungry. Went to the Philosophy Honor Society meeting in Ahern. They talked about all kinds of bullshit. All I wanted to know was how to get my damned honor cords. Turns out I have to complete anohter volunteer activity. Looks like I'll be making a dinner for a family of 6. One of the philosophy adjunct profs has a 2 lb premie & 3 rowdy little boys & could use some help. On my way out I grabbed an application form for the History Honor Society. I guess I'm a little pretentious too. I loves me some beefy resumes & graduation honor cords. In the pm: Had a simultaneous car washing/sun tanning session.
By the by, this stuff is great. Alba's Organic Dark Tan oil: "This ultimate dark tanning dry oil spray goes on soft and silky, not greasy. Expertly blended with nourishing carrot oil - nature's own tan intensifier, along with powerful vitamin antioxidants and certified organic botanicals to promote healthy skin and maximize a deep, dark, long lasting tan."
Whitey was anything but white & I was anything but a lightly toasted golden brown hue. That all changed today. Oh, and then I did my nails. Then I went over to Paolo's, and ate one of the cookies Claudia baked. Then Paolo & I dropped by the chapel. Then a breakthru! *smiles* ...Yah, I had to put it in writing.
Wednesday Happenings & Observations: In the am: Hammered out & turned in a long overdue Senior Thesis outline to my academic advisor slash Thesis reader #1. At our previous meeting, he was obviously pissed about my slow going progress. My Thesis should write its damnself. Lazy sonofabitch. In the pm: -Dropped by my dad's new shop so my mom could show me around the digs. It's looking better & better. -Hung out w/ Crystal & Diamond, respectively. They're such interesting individuals. I could talk to them forever. -Had dinner with a sad & beaten Paolo. He had work scheduling problems between his two Walgreen's locations. He wound up working a 12 hour day with an 11pm quitting time and a math test in the morning. But he pulled through and did oh so awesomely.
