I feel like I haven’t written in forever!!!
Well, I got my new phone today
YAY! It came yesterday, and my roommate was in the shower, and my boyfriend (who was at my house so that if fed-ex came to the door in my room, he’d be able to hear) was in my room, and they went to the front door instead… so I missed it. I was very bummed. But I got it today. Thank you who ever invented leaving a signature. Anywho I can’t activate it though because one of the things that’s wrong with my phone is I can’t call anyone haha. So I get to wait until 5 or so tonight. Not so yay. Oh well, at least it’s pretty.
I’m really proud of myself. I’ve gone to the gym the last two nights in a row, and I’m going in a little while again! Yay for being skinny! … oh yeah, and healthy : P It was really exciting too because last night I went and I was in a bad mood when I got there, but it put me in a good mood. Gotta love those endorphins!
I also had an oral report today on a super confusing article about origins of The Odyssey, but I think it went well, and I think I did better on this than I usually do during speeches. Then I got to work and got to do a project. It’s nice to do projects and get away from the mundane stuff I always do. PLUS I got my work-study situation resolved, so now I can get more hours at work if I want them.
I love good weeks – maybe because good weeks don’t happen often, and maybe I’m exaggerating and it’s only been a good day, but at least it’s making my week look better retrospectively.
Let’s see… my class is also almost over. I have 5 classes left! AND I ordered my books for my next class online and it was only $36! for shipping and everything! AND two of them have already arrived.
Okay, this is probably such a happy post people who read it will puke. I’m going to get ready to go to the gym!
καληνύχτα – aka Goodnite!
BLEH!

I don’t like this week. I have too much to do, and I didn’t get anything done over the weekend because we had a big religious convention all weekend and my parents were here for it, so even after the religious stuff was done, I was hanging with my parents. Because of this, I barely studied for my quiz that was on Monday, but hopefully I did okay on it; I think I did. I have a four page paper due Thursday, and I’m still iffy on my topic… and my midterm is on Friday.
Frank was telling me I should’ve just taken both my summer classes during the first summer session, but with just this one class’ assignments piling up on me, I wouldn’t want a second class to worry about too. If I had taken a second class, this weekend probably would’ve killed my grades.
I watched 27 Dresses this weekend and I LOVED it! Especially the ode’s to Elton John haha. It was an awesome movie, so I decided I need to catch up on the recent romantic comedies. Frank doesn’t like them, plus we’re both skint, so I haven’t seen many movies recently. I’ve like Katherine Heigl ever since I saw her in Wish Upon a Star, the old Disney movie, but my respect for James Marsden went up.
Since the end of this fiscal year is ending at the library (and everywhere else) this weekend, my boss told me I could come in and work a couple long days, so I’m going in on Saturday, and hopefully Sunday too, to work 6 hour days to make a little extra, but I’m not sure how many hours I’m going to get once I get my work-study paperwork in. Hopefully at least 14, because that’s not even enough for all my bills…. Bleh. I hate paying for everything with my credit card. It feels so immature, but the truth is I just don’t have the money and no one down here is hiring.
Speaking of that, Frank had a job interview scheduled for yesterday and they called him a half hour beforehand to say, nevermind because they filled the position. That’s super-lame if you ask me, but Frank says he bets the person they hired knew someone else who worked there. Most likely. Probably nepotism at it’s finest.
So I plugged the page I did because of the recent blog on Shaq’s rap about Kobe. As much as I hate Kobe and love the Suns, the rap’s kinda dumb. I didn’t listen to it that closely, but just the “Kobe, tell me how my ass tastes” is a tad ridiculous. I’m just gonna link it, cause I don’t particularly want it on my page haha.
Okay, Frank is nagging me about starting my paper, and I guess he’s right. I don’t want to be stuck with all four pages left to write by tomorrow night. OH, but I’m excited because of the Before You Know It software I plugged in an earlier post, I know 14 animals in Greek and I can write them and everything haha. silly me.
4 more days till my new phone – I CANNOT WAIT!

My LG phone has now put itself permanently into “CAR KIT” mode and I have tried numerous ways to try to get it out, to no avail.
I found a forum where other people are obviously having the same problem (although that isn’t my exact phone), but of course I still have no answer.
Basically with “CAR KIT,” I have no sound for text messages or when my phone boots up, but I can hear my phone ring and my alarm go off. BUT when I get or make phone calls, I can’t hear the other person and the other person can’t hear me. So I kinda just have a beeper right now. I can send messages and that’s it. GRRRR
And it looks as though the forum is saying that there is either moisture in my phone (which there isn’t) or there is something wrong with the charging port, which there is. Back in, like, December or even longer than that, I noticed my phone wasn’t holding as much of a charge, and when I went to a Verizon store they told me that the charger port had been ruined, kind of. The little metal bars, or whatever, in the port – some of them were bent up. So, I guess this is just my continual punishment for ruining that.
So, back to the title of my blog: Thank God I only have 8 more days until I get my new phone.
Anywho, I took a quiz for my class on Tuesday(?) and I realized Tuesday night that I had forgotten to answer one of the parts. The IDs said to answer 5/8 and I only answered 4. I got my quiz back today and I got a 90%. Totally lucky. I couldn’t believe it. Unfortunately, as it is a summer class, and therefore sped-up, I have another quiz Monday, a paper due Thursday and my midterm on Friday. BLEH.
My parent’s are here this weekend for a church thing. It’s good to see them again, but I just saw them haha. I kinda wish it could’ve been a couple weeks from now, just cause I really don’t know when the next time I’ll see them is. It may be as far away as Labor Day weekend when we go to Hatch for the Chile Festival.
Bleh. I have to get up early and I’m mad about my phone, so I’m off to bed.
