Friday at Home

I was at home for the second week in a row. I did some work around the house, but nothing of incredible circumstance. I watched a movie during the day and Enterprise among other TV in the evening.

Lunch and Classes

English class was rather dull and incoherent as usual this morning. After class I had some time to pass before taking the shuttle so I wandered the mall and Canal Street for a bit. I sat in the Astor Hotel lobby for a short while to read the paper. I caught the 2:15 shuttle and went to meet Melanie, a classmate in Journalism, for lunch at Bud’s Broiler near the campus. After eating at talking for a while we still had a good while before class started so we walked to Audubon Park to sit around for a while. After talking some more about nothing of circumstance, we went to class. We had a test today, which I think I did well enough on. After the test, the professor talked for a while about our current assignment. Class was dismissed comparatively early. I spoke with Melanie shortly and tried some long exposures of Gibson Hall before heading to the library to meet Dad and go home.

Tuesday

I was at home today to keep Andrew company who had the day off from school today for reasons I don't understand. I didn't get all that much done today, although there wasn't much to do anyway. I probably should have worked on some papers for school but oh well.

Dull Classes

English class was rather dull today. There were only two fellow students. After class I had lunch with Ann at the Chinese place. After stopping in the store I took the shuttle uptown and made my way to the computer lab in Gibson Hall as I have become accustom to doing. I was there until class started. I spent some time on eBay while listening to Rush. I did some studying before tonight’s test. I think I did quite well today. The lecture afterward seemed pretty pathetic as it was about the basics of telecommunications and networking. I spent three years of high school in a Cisco certification class so I didn't walk away feeling very enlightened. Later in the evening after getting home I watched Alexandra Pelosi's “Diary of a Political Tourist.” I certainly don't have any person interest in the democratic presidential candidates but I did find her film amusing and entertaining.

Another Rainy Day

The rainy weather continued today. We didn’t bother to go to church as a result. Today was almost as unproductive as Saturday although I did clean the kitchen floor. I spent most of the day watching an embarrassing number of Stargate SG-1 episodes.

Rainy Day

It rained steadily most of the day today. Not surprising as a tropical storm is passing by at the moment. I went to class this morning to take the first test, I was fortunate enough to get a ride both ways. The ‘exam’ was not difficult and only took about 20 minutes to answer the multiple choice questions and three essays. I was fortunate enough to get a ride both ways. That was the extent of my productivity today. I spend the rest of the day lounging around doing mostly nothing. I finished watching “Lolita” later in the evening.

Friday at Home

Unlike most Fridays, I was at home today. I had the chance to get a few things done. I did a few loads of laundry and washed all of my clothes and some towels. I was able to straighten my room up and clean the kitchen a bit. I watched some TV in the evening, including the presidential debate. Later in the evening I started watching “Lolita.” It’s a long movie and I didn’t finish it.

Lots of Reports

I went to work today at mid city. Dad dropped me off so I could work some dictation. I did 15 reports over the course of the day. I stopped at the deli for lunch and had lasagna. I don’t remember anything of circumstance in the evening. I may have spoken with a friend.

Wednesday

Before heading to the mall for class, I stopped at the post office to mail Mylena’s yearbook. I had to change the box but otherwise it was no hassle. The real trouble will be in making it to it’s destination after it arrives in Costa Rica. English class was ok, if uninteresting. I had lunch with Ann afterwards and stopped in the store for a minute after we ate. After taking the shuttle uptown I stopped into the financial aid office to acquire about my TOPS award. I was told that I would have to steak with the state because I did not claim the money immediately. After that I spend a couple hours in the computer lab. I listened to Rush, browsed ebay and caught up on some log entries among other things. Journalism class was shorter than usual. The professor lectured for a short while, we discussed some examples of the previous assignment. Lastly Mr. Marinello went over our last assignment. After class I spoke briefly with Melanie, a classmate, before going to meet my dad and heading home.

At Work on Tuesday

I worked at mid city this morning. I went through three boxes of patient files to add the date of accident to a spreadsheet. This combined with access to court records is supposed to help get bills paid. Later in the day Dad and I went to Don's house to get some terminal software working. This evening I watched the vise-presidential debate and finished a journalism assignment. I watched “Easy Rider” late in the evening. This movie's ending was just… bad.

Monday Classes

Today was rather typical. Classes were fine but hardly interesting. In intro to information systems, we had a lab on the internet. Suffice it to say it wasn't much of a learning experience.

Sunday

Before coming home from church, we stopped by the bookstore so Jeff could run in real quick and get something. It turned out to be rather troublesome. As for the rest of the day, there was some TV watching, napping, and typing involved. Jeff went back to school this afternoon.
