One more day

I'm getting ready to take a shower before work, then this will be my last night here in Norman. I do have to work tomorrow night though, 5-11, so ill be leaving when I get off work, and be strolling into Tulsa around 1ish. I'll prolly just head straight to the apartment and set up my computer, and hang out all night, then crash there. I'm not working at starworld when im in town so besides family stuff, i'll be available the whole break for chillin. Well thats not all the way true, I will have to return to gamestop every week, but the way I have the schedule worked out, I should be able to stay the maximum time in Tulsa. I know I have at least till Christmas off, but i'll get the rest of my schedule tonight when I get back to work. I'll let you know then.

some awesome stuff

Today was a good day for expensive things to fall into nick's lap. To start, we finaly got a few DS's in, (near impossible to find) and my parents were going to get me one for my birthday, so I called her up and told her that I found one, and she told me to go ahead and buy it, and it would be my birthday present! So now I have a DS, and im very, very happy with it.

Second, im prolly more happy about this, I took my 35mm camera in to bestbuy and switched it out for a way awesome digital camera that just happend to be the exact same price my first camera was worth. So now I have this sony camera It's about my old camera x 2, the megapixels are doubled at 4.1 instead of 2.0, and it has 3x optical zoom, so no more of that shitty grainy digital shit. Can't wait to use it this christmas! birthday was awesome, and as soon as I am done with work ill be right in that living room at the house. See ya!

It's OVER!

School is over! And my birthday has begun! I've already got most of the day planned, sleeping it late, waking up, check mail (if i got my bestbuy product replacement plan recipt in, then i will go switch out my 35mm camera for a better digital), THEN watch the delayed LOTR:ROTK, then the drinking will begin, and the hopping of bars will soon follow. I can't wait! I'll be safe, don't worry.

Good news and some so-so news.

I got an 88 on my Documentary Film Final, and that means that I have solid B in the class, and maybe a chance at an A, very happy about that! But I couldnt enjoy my happy times because the final I studied my ass off for the past few days, didnt go as well as I wanted it too. I prolly got a C on the final, and I really was shooting for a B. This grade was important because I think im borderline C/B so ill keep my fingers crossed. After coming back from the final, I realized that I worked today, at 4, and had only 20 minutes to get my shit together and head over for my 4-11 shift....whew, almost fucked up. The best part of my work is how not only I get to talk about video games, but I play them all I want. Im always trying out DS games, but most of my time is spent playing Burnout 3, an awesome racing/kill cars game, and I love it. If you guys havent played it, its worth buying.

Thats about all for now, I still have 2 more finals and 4 more days till im 21.

Damn you Erik!

Erik guilted me into posting, although im sure I have loads to talk about, I guess im just lazy.... I have been pretty busy though, picking up more hours at work, and spending less time playing World of Warcraft, and more time studying. I've had one final already, and I think I got an A, but we will see. I have 3 more next week, one on Monday, so lots of work to be done. School ends on Thursday the 16th, and my birthday is the following day! A nice gift if I do say so myself. I'll be staying here in Norman for a few more days after that, I need to work something out with my boss, where I work my 2 or 3 shifts in a row, or possibly doubles so I can spend the maximum time in Tulsa. Ill keep you updated on my Tulsa/Norman work situation.

Baths

Let me just say something about baths. I was sitting here on the computer, just finished some homework, and I thought "maybe ill take a bath, havent done that in awhile"....It turns out that this is a terrible idea. Let me explain, you draw out some steamy hot water, and you climb in. It's nice and hot! Then you sit down, and begin to streach your legs out, and realize, "im not going to fit snuggly in this" So you place your legs against the wall, out of the bath, so your chest and surrounding regions will be covered by water. Now your legs are cold, and the water is slowly draining, because the mass of my body is too much for the water, and it has to escape out of the little silver circle thing. So the water is droping, and im getting colder by the second. I turn on the hot water, to get a refill, and try to enjoy at least a few minutes of the bath...but nothing comes out but cold water, I give it a few min, but no, its just ice, cold, water. Great, so now I don't fit into the bath and im cold. My bath was terrible, and ill never take one again. I think it overall lasted about 8 minutes. Now I have to put on 3 shirts to keep warm, because my house is freezing, and my body tempreture has dropped to like um something cold.

Showers for life.

Sneaky Goverment

I just found out something kind of....disturbing...turns out that the government told CNN that we were raiding falluja, but it turns out they were lying. Yeah, read it here. Turns out it was a "tactic" to see how the Iraqis would respond to the misinformation. I think that the government has crossed the line on this one. I first read about the original "attack" here from Jp's site

I know that the Iraqis use CNN as a news source and that is why our government gave CNN false information, but I think this is crossing the line. How do we know what news is real? How can we trust them?
