i've decided I'm going to try to keep this thing like a real journal. i happen to always forget what happens in my life, so it's a good way to keep a log. we'll see what happens of it.
we'll begin from friday, 'cause that's when i meant to actually do this.
woke up early-ish to study for the ochem midterm, which entailed that i read a bunch of the book which i never actually get around to do until a little before the tests. i've learned that if i make use of the morning hours before my classes, i can get a a lot of work done and not overwhelm myself (or really do any work at all) in the evenings. i also did some work on my cs230 homework which the night before i realized chris and i had done a third of it wrong. i then made my way over to engineering around 10 where i found arturo (theoretical computation lab friend and t.a. for cs230) who helped me out a bit before i had to run off to gen chem (boo) where i studied ochem some more which came right after at noon. i did pretty well on the midterm and at this point we paragraph break because i took a bit of a break.
anyways, in the next two hours chris and i finished up as much as the 230 homework as we could and even had a chance to stop in at the cs coffee hour where they had ice cream floats. once i turned that homework in at 3 i went over to the music library to try to read the book for the music instruments of the world course, but couldn't because some other guys were using it, so instead i just went home where i happened to meet henry and walk with him.
i don't remember the next couple of hours because i probably just passed out as the week was finally over.
anyways, as per usual friday night routine i headed over to the hillel where some good jew action was had, including an always fun dinner with shauna, david, ari, and new people. this was then follwed by a short stop at the chabad where i ate even more until i left to go to shauna's place. there, there was tasting of some peppermint schnapps and a couple shots o' patron (have been meaning to try it). the patron, as most tequilas, aparently required limes, so i ran across the street to freeb!rds to steal some. now, this is only the second time i've entered that establishment since september (since i had started to go to el taco amigo (will be explained some other time)), the other time i was essentially forced by out-of-towners. anyway, i felt justified as i was just stealing from them, so it was to their detriment that entered the place. anyway, david and ari show up and we all (sans david, who happened to dissapear into the bathroom for a long while) had ourselves some tequila. we then gave up on going out into i.v. and just lounged about the place until i left.
next day, as per usual saturday morning routine, i went myself to chabad for some jewness and large lunch. came home and took a nap for an hour or so until i was waken by christopher j coakley (he has taken the place of my mother in always managing to call me while i'm napping). some el taco amigo followed, followed then by him flirting with my housemates and me spending a couple hours on google video. but what's more important than any of that is dr. tran and roybertitos. trust me.
contacted the henry and we went down to woodstocks (as the amigo was closed, as there is not much business since he got his liquor liscence revoked) followed by some dp walking where there were some parties and henry got his groove on with some of the lady folk. as it was nearing midnight and all big parties in iv must be shut down because of stupid laws, we soon left to go to marissa/shauna's place where i left henry and david to their duties. at this point i decided it would be nice to visit the ol' "stomping groups" as it were and went to pendola (the old dorm) to hang out with peoples who happened to be watching a movie. anyways, that happened and then i went home.
such is the exciting life of mine. a 'day in the life' or two, as it once were.
