Today has been very interesting. This morning when my alarm went off, like always, I turned it off and then layed back down and began to think about what I was going to have to do for the day. Weeeell, somewhere in my thinking, I guess I fell asleep because the next moment I look at my clock and it is LATE! I jump out of bed (I hate getting up like that) and then rush to put some clothes on and zoom out the door (and, yes I was moving so fast that I think the "zooming" sound effects could actually be heard). Anyways, I got to work and had to immediately begin filming a project my company is working on. On top of things, I forgot to load one of our TV shows into the switcher (stupid me). To say that I was a little frustrated could be an understatement. On top of things, I took an Algebra test last night and I do not feel good about it. I don't like algebra at ALL! It frustrates and confuses me. If I pass it this semester, it will truly be a miracle. I just don't think with that side of my brain. For real, I think colleges should only require algebra for certain courses and not a general class.
Enough of me complaining. I am so glad it is Tuesday because 1) Art class is tonight -- easiest class, 2) I only have two more work days left of this week because it is Good Friday, and 3) God loves me and that's all that matters. :) Sometimes I forget to thank God for the simple things in life and I meditate on things that I don't have.
Speaking of things I don't appreciate when I have them... Jacob and I have decided to try saving some money and we settled on not going out to eat for a WHOLE month. Not for lunch at work, not for dates, not even when we're not together. Ahhh... So I've been bringing my lunch to work with me and been eating at home. It is more difficult then you would think. But, the good thing is I have saved LOTS of money by not spending $7 or $8 dollars a day on food. I am cheap, but I guess I don't pay attention to how much money one person spends on eating out.
On another subject, does anyone understand Faulkner????? I am having to read As I Lay Dying for my English Composition II and it is slightly confusing. The book has 55 chapters and each chapter is narrated by one of the characters in the book.... so, it is pretty much one story begin told by a bunch of people. And it is all about this dead lady. Yupp. So far I am understading it fairly well... it is a little muddy though and I am still trying picture the characters in my mind... maybe I should read more than just 4 chapters... I love my teacher, but she is obsessed with William Faulkner. Although, because of her, I had no problem coming up with an essay on a famous speech for Speech Class. I love it how I can use the same stuff that I learn in one class and put it with another class. I suppose I owe a big THANK YOU to my teacher if I get a good grade on it. :)
So, thought for the day: What if everyone was made out of noodles?
