ok so erica said i never post so i decided why not today. but its going to be very random. seriously like ANYTHING that comes to mind.

so took anna's quiz because who doesnt want a quiz that'll tell you what major you should be.  unfortunantely mine wasn't so realistic:

You scored as Theate.

You should be a Theater major! Like a bohemian actress, you are seasoned and confident and not afraid to express yourself!

it was also tied with a math. major, i dont know if that makes it any better. i dont know if i wanted to see econ up there but i guess it woudl have felt nice to be like- oh i'm on the right track, but then again its an online quiz that someone really bored just made up. 

hmm what else. so i didnt go to class today, which is really bad since i havent gone to that class (int'l migration-- yes it is as boring as it sounds ) all week and we have a paper due thats suppper long, and if you've talked to me at all i've probably told you about it. 16-20 pages man!! ridiculous.

so i'm thinking of joining the debate team in college. they're really eager to have lots of people even if they're just novice because we can still compete against other novices in the competitions. i'm not sure if i'd have to pay to do the in-state tournaments though. i know thers a couple out of state ones and those we pay for.  but yesterday i went to the first actual meeting, since wednesday was the informational. and i waited for 30 min and then i saw a couple pro debaters, just saw them, its not like i saw them debate or anything. but i dont know why, after seeing them i felt weird and left even though i was about to catcht the bus 30 minutes ago but came to this and ended up leaving right before it started.  i kinda have an idea why,but i guess i just as easily coudl have stayed so yea.. sucks that i dindt' join earlier though. they're going to SD this weekend!!!

also going to be helping out at church pretty often now to mentor kids and help w/ the food and serving.  they promoted me to event coordinator in the club :) mind you, its a club where me and two friends probably do more if not the same amount as the president. so yea, she kinda HAD to promote us.  but still i'm glad i'm finaly something besides being a member.  i also want to be in this club called IRSA (in't relatiosn student association) but i havent gone to a single meeting even though i get the emails to go every week. but their meetings are off campus and thats not cool since the buses are convinent to take me to campus. 

netflicks (net flixs? ) is awesome. i'm finally getting up to date on the movies.  madagascar was hilarious, definintely watch it if you haven't already. office space i thikn is kinda over rated. and emily rose wasn't that scary, first half was kinda boring i think.  the islands is coming tomorrow--- when my roommate told me it was coming. i was like uhh i'm guessing thats a movie.. yeah thats how out of the loop i guess i've always been. 

i went to the gym today :) and saw linda ont he bus.  my workout was like 5 min on every machine because i couldn't handle more than that. i felt like such a wuss since on one machine lifting up 30 points was seriously KILLLING me. i ha dto take like 5 breaks to do 25. 

professors this quarter aren't that good but hopefully it'll get better, but overall life is pretty goooood. 

so erica you shoudl still update because i just did :)

today i've actually been really productive with reading.  its so weird becasue its seems like theres soo much work to be done now that i'm tryign to stay ahead or even stay on schedule it like all the studying, homeworks, notes.  but the past four weeks it feels like i've done absolutely nothing until right before its due and so its taken almost no time, which seems so much better than this new thing i'm trying out.  ok i don know how much sense im making but maybe i should just stop w/ that thought since i'm kinda confusing myself.

i was doing my sudoku puzzle int he newspaper like usual and i saw this employment thing to be a studnet ambasssador so that sounded really cool. i emailed them today to ask about it, so they better email me back since i'm soo broke. i hate it, i kept 100 dollars from my check and i only have 30 left, sucksss i hate how money just disappears.  but i honestly need to find a job thats not temporary like my bookstore position because in the past week i haevnt worked at all and im' working one hour tomorrow- ONE- that.s 6.75. thats it!! bastards man, minmum wage should be like 10 bucks at least. 

i dont know what i feel like im' missing but i think i'm missing something. i'm thinking of interning at the capital (sac not dc) in the spring or going abroad because i feel like i realllly need the change.  its not that life is boring but its just the same, well actually some days are boring but its just i feel like i can't enjoy it that much more since its not a totally new experience.  i picked up some applications for this camp adventure thing theyr' trying to get peopelt o do in davis- this is the first year, otherwise it was chico that did it. you get to be a camp counselor for 10 weeks i thin in the summer and they pay you like 1500 or something.  its at some military base internationally, you get to pick your top 15 and most likely you'll get one of your top five picks.  sounds different enough but i'm not sure if i'm in love with kids that much (elementary-level) to spend half my summer there vs somethign else.  plus being at a mlitary base is kinda a scary thought. 

oh yeah-- TAHOE hopefully weekend after veterans day, whatever date that is. because i need to try it out before erica comes up. assuming she does.. sometime lol but omg, everyone shoudl come up with her-- that would be soooo much fun. convince them erica, pleeeease :) ok thats really all thats on my mind right now.. can't wait to go home next weekend !!! wedding shopping will be exciting!

oh my goodness

i never knew i would feel so incomplete without the internet. as sad as that sounds....

but the good part is part of me is glad i had the time away from it but yea today was the first day i had it in my room and i came home at 6.

from 8 to 11 i've gotten out of my chair twice. so sad.

anyways first update from davis so guess i should make this about more than the lack of internet. 

the first week was SO hectic. i had like thirty hours of work that first week.  the bookstore is seriously the place to be; i alway run into everyone there.  basically when i wasnt in class, i was at the bookstore.  i saw emma britton there and she told me she plays tennis for davis so thats cool.  one of the times i was working this girl walked in and she said she wanted to get a refund or something becasue the bookstore had a policy that said if another bookstore has the same item cheaper, then we'll match the price or something like taht.  i was kinda shocked because like any other uni. bookstore, its' really expensive, even with my 10% discount.  but anyways i was like are you sure we have that policy because i woudl hear a lot more complaints if we did, but we figured there must have been some catch.  basically she thought the internet counted as the bookstore and i had to tell her that th internet doesnt even qualify for a store, much less a bookstore. but i wonder if thats actually a policy because there are a couple bookstores that are always cheaper. 

i also met this guy from class last year who is a quadruple major.  and not some puny majors either: i'm talking: mech, aero engin, math, chem (i think or its physics) but anyways he's alreayd almost at the 180 unit mark (whihc is what we need to graduate) and he said when he does graduates (in his 4 yr plan) it will be almost 500 units-- sooo crazy! talking to him makes me feel like i can handle the impossible since hes' thaat crazy.

so my new phase-- and hopefully the last-- switched from man econ, to plain ol econ with IR. i really hope this works out becasue i'm finally done w/ pre reqs for econ so i can start taking the upper division classes. 

the living situation is pretty good so far.  i kinda like that we're secluded in our own way since we dont hang out w/ too many people besides the four of us.  i mean theres the occassional get together and all taht but on a pretty daily basis its usually just us and prob once a week, we'll chill with other people.  but i'm glad since it really cuts down ont he distractions since last year we were always running around and wasting time.  i woudl love to get good grades this quarter...it should loosen up my parents a bit i think, maybe they'd let me go to places every now and then.  which reminds me i need to go abroad either spring quarter or next year.  oh man so many plans but so little planning.  i made this to-do list of about 30 things but for the most part it just sits there.... sadness.. ok back to accounting and econ.

back in davis.  i dont know why but whenever i see someone instead of saying how was your weekend, i've been saying how was your break?.  and the weird thing is that its not like this weekend felt super long or anything, because if anything it was super short since my cousin put me to work the whole weekend.  i was helping him assemble his desk and hutch and that took the bulk of the weekend.  but i'm not complaining since i guess it was a good exercise but its weird that i keep saying break...

i'm getting soo addicted to in-n-out shakes.  me and ranjit were talking about it today - how we like them so much and we're like hey lets go later ok? lol at least this time i didnt have to walk our friend back to segundo around 1am. 

so lots of poly sci and enlgihs reading to catch up on.  one good thing is that my midterms are very spread out.  had one last week, one this week, and one next week.  hopefully all that goes well; haven't found out about math yet. 

oh yeah and double a battries suck for not lasting long enough.  i swear i barely had the camera on for 1 hour total and the battery is already dead.  so tomorrow's err later today's plans are: laundry, get water & battries, catch up on reading, and do math hw by 5. 

i have some things on my mind but i dont want to make this entry more of a mess than it already is.  i've noticed i'm always apologizing for my entries at the end.  lol so sad, but i really feel like i shoud since they are so crappy compared to everyone else's.  i'll make it better next time i promise, i'll try..lol

today is my last day i'll have to worry about my cell phone minutes :) after this weekend, its all about mobile to mobile so if you dont have cingular you're not cool. 

anwaysy i need to fix my sleeping schedule.  its terrible.  i thought i'd pull another all-nighter today and technically i did but then i went to sleep around 6 am and so i got some sleep off and on until around 1pm. 

tennis was pretty fun yesterday even though my team sucked.  at least we weren't shut out - it was 5-1 and who knows how the set would have ended right? but i really want to make tennis a regular thing since i enjoy it a lot, i'd really like to get better, and its a great form of exerice.  but hopefully i'll go the arc this weekend at least once.

also played some pool and ping pong yesterday but we only had the equipment for like 30 min since it was due back at 11 so that kinda sucked.  how awesome woudl that be to have a pool table in our apt? :) ...

also watched dodgeball yesterday.  it was ok. i mean yea it had a few funny parts but i dont thikn its as great as other people say.  thats not the way i learned how to play dodgeball.. we played in a circle...

oh yeah! and i finally got my digital camera, actually i stole amandas' but its all good. hehe.  ok so i'm making a promise to myself: no more shopping until i get a job and i really hope i stick to it because i've been spending quite a bit of money lately. 

i need batteries for my cd player. it runs out so quickly esp since i listen to music before i fall asleep.  i've only fell asleep to the music a couple times but i dont know why but i want to do it more often.  hmm what else..

our place is pretty quiet. since karin (my roommate) already left and now lindseys gone back home since thursday and so she wont be back until sunday so me and jen both get our own rooms plus a living room.  i need to spend more time here though because i'm either out or upstairs.  ok well i'm goin to be mor dedicated. this weekend is all about studying since midterm is on wed. also hopefuly goin to the sac church on saturday :)

i have a few things on my mind but id rather not say here but overall i'm pretty content w/ life and school. i just hope i can be more focused. soon..
