Things I Hate:
1) University - frankly it's too hard, and way over-rated. Think I'd much rather be ignorant and happy. The less you know about the world, the better.
2) Statistics - I don't care. Frankly I hate numbers, I hate calculations, I can't stand all those stupid Confidence Statements and whatnots.
3) Leechers - in short: they suck.
4) People who can't write in English - okay, normally, I'm not one to discriminate, but when it comes to writting 3500 word essays, I don't exactly have a choice. I have neither the time nor patience to put up with ppl who claim that they know their articles inside out, but in reality, don't. What I hate, is the fact that I'm put in a position where I have to write their part for them cuz my marks are on the line if I don't.


Things I Miss:
1) TV - whatever happened to the days of endless TV marathons?
2) Sleep.
3) My friends - haven't seen any of them for the longest time... I miss talking to ppl whom I actually care for and vice-versa.
4) Baking - craving for cookies T___T

Things I Look Forward To:
1) The end of this semester
2) Christmas
3) Sleep
4) 2nd annual snowboarding/ski trip?
5) Dinner - omg.. so hungry right now... been in school since 10 this morning... think I'll head home now...

I hate my group for my Business Thinking class. Actually, no. Hate is just not strong enough to describe it. It make me wanna frickin' hang myself. For future reference, never, EVER put yourself in a group where you'll end up being the only one who's perfectly fluent in English. So how exactly did I end up doing so stupid, one may ask? Well, the answer to that question is perfectly simple: I am a naïve brainless moron.

At the begining, we were a group of three (including myself). I knew that English is not a strong point for one of the members, but she was very willing to learn. As for the other girl, I had the impression that she is fluent from the conversations we've had. Apparently, girl #2 can only speak, and not write, and she only chose to tell me this last week, which was 2 weeks after we handed in our proposal and it was too late to change anything. As for girl #1, she's ranking pretty high on my "people who annoy me" list because she chose to invite someone I've never met before into our group, and silly me.. I accepted. Well guess what? It turns out girl #3 doesn't even speak English TT______________TT. The only thing she can speak fluently is Mandarine, and that, in no way does it help or benefit the 3500 words essay we have to write for this effin' project!! Oh yes, and did I mention that girl #1 is not at all the hard working student I thought she is? Well, she isn't. It was all a façade to cover up the fact that she's leeching off of her boyfriend who's also taking this course. Since our class falls on a Monday, it means that we're 2 weeks behind all the other Business Thinking classes due to the fact that the first day of school was on a Tuesday, and the fact that Thankgiving also fell on a Monday. That means, girl #1 is only doing as well as she's doing because she's getting all her materials from her boyfriend, and I swear if I have to hear the words "Oh, my boyfriend can.." or "I can get ____ from my boyfriend" one more time, I swear I'll strangle her. Is your boyfriend in our group? Is he writting your report for you? If the answer to both questions is "no" then I don't care how great your boyfriend is!!!! Just shut up, read the god damn book and artiles and do your part!!!

Ah yes, speaking of the book.. turns out I'm the only one in the group who read it!! I'm the only one in the group who's taking a full 5 classes, so if I can read it, I don't see why they can't!! Girl #1 and 2 are taking 4 classes, and girl #3 is taking 3. Girl #1 and 3's excuses are "ooOoo.. I've been soOOOooo busy with my project/work for my ___ class" Well, I'm sorry but, screw you!!! I'm taking 5 courses and totally messed up on my mid-terms for 3 of those classes so I think I know more about stress and work-load than those 2 morons combined. As for girl #2, "I have to work" is not a good enough excuse. If you can't handle school and work, then stop working!!

.. *cries* ..

Can't wait till Christmas break...

I'm so depressed.. I lost my uber bass skills =_______=. Haven't practiced for over 4 months, and now I've forgotten everything. My fingering's awful now, and I've successfully lost all my picks, *sigh*. And to top it all off, my guitar-pro doesn't work anymore cuz of the new version, and I flat out refuse to pay $30 for an upgrade when there was really nothing wrong with version 4 to begin with. Well, guess this marks the end of my bass playing days. That or play everything by ear. No time to learn how to read notes >______<.

Can't believe this semester's almost over. Never been so stressed in my life. Too much to read, too much to study, too much to write!!! Omg... Well, that settles it, I'm definately not taking 5 courses next semester. Nope, never again!!!

P.S. - HAPPY BELATED 20TH, LISA!!!! Oh good god, it's already started.. we're all slowly turning 20 TT__________TT
