Definite sign that I've become a true Radio KoL junkie:
EyeSpeculum, one of the most awesome DJs on the station, is taking a month-long hiatus. His last show for a while just finished up, and at the end both he and a good number of us listening were starting to tear up. *smiles slightly* Yeah, I know I should have been in bed hours ago and that I'll be heading to Regionals in about an hour, but I really wanted to hear Spec's last hurrah before he goes to recharge his mojo. Really glad that I did. See ya later, Spec; you'll be missed.

[Link] | Well, here it is. One hour before the ball drops in the square and we (on the East Coast, anyway) officially enter 2006. This year is gonna be different than the rest, I know that for a fact. Due to some incredibly stupid thing that I did last semester, I am on my third strike. If I botch it up this semester, I'm doing my senior year at UCF. Screw the fact that the program at FSU is much better, my parents have said that if I can't prove that I can take care of thing in Tallahassee (my grades this semester were abysmal, I almost forgot to send in the rent check for January), I'll be in Winter Springs so they can keep an eye on me.
My parents have given me this talk before, but what really drove it home for me was the fact that my mom was in TEARS when she left the house this morning for my grandparents' place. It made me realize what my slacking was doing to her and I've sworn that I will NEVER let that happen again. So, I've got a few resolutions for this year that I'm damn well going to keep.
1. I'm turning the computer off at 1AM at the LATEST. No more staying up until 4 in the morning listening to Radio KoL and talking with folks online.
2. I'm going to get a job. I've blown through so much money since I started at FSU it's not funny. So, Dad and I are going to figure out a budget before I leave, and I'm gonna stick to it and find a job.
3. I'm going to actually stick with Weight Watchers. I have the booklets and whatnot, so the meetings aren't that necessary. I'm WAY too heavy for my height, and I need to fix that.
Those are the ones I have at the moment; the list will probably grow as the days go on. *channels Darien Fawkes a bit* There's a Chinese proverb that says while teachers open the door, you have to enter by yourself. If I'm going to open the door for others, I need to figure out how to open the lock first. Wish me luck.

[Link] | Salutations from the (almost) Frozen North! I'm currently sitting in the computer lab in a youth hostel in NYC, happy as hell to be here but wondering why they have to charge 10 cents a minute to get online. o_O
I headed down to Orlando with my cousin Thursday morning - unfortunatly missing the Macy's parade - and chilled with the familia for a few hours and had a nice brunch/Thanksgiving dinner thing. I then headed to the airport with my Aunt Kathy, Aunt Ginny and Kathy's four kids. The trip up wasn't too bad; watched the second half of The Island (was reading for the first half. Mmm...Stephen King), had a little nap at one point. Then, we headed out to the train platform and waited for the train to Penn Station. It was COLD. Like, 30's cold. I ended up standing on the train 'cause there wasn't enough seats, but it was only two stops from the Newark airport to NYC, so it wasn't too bad. We then hopped on the subway and came to the youth hostel. For folks who don't know, it's basically a boarding house where you're in a room with about 5-6 other peoples. It's hella cheap, 'specially for New York; $120 for four nights ain't too shabby. After getting settled in and snagging some pizza, I turned in for the night.
I woke up at about 8:45 this morning, then headed to the communal showers on the second floor. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting, although I had flashbacks to the showers in the dorm in Kentucky. After that, we snagged a bit of breakfast, then headed out. We first went to the Cathadral of St. John the Divine, a really cool-looking chruch down the street from the hostel. Got a coupla pics of the artwork from there; I'll be posting everything up on my Photobucket once I get home. After that, we headed down town and went shopping for a while. Lunch consisted of a hot dog and a Pepsi in Central Park, then we went down to the ice skating rink in the park. I was very proud of the fact that I didn't fall ONCE. =D After the skating, we headed back to the hostel, and here I be.
El should be calling me soon, so I should ramble. See you guys later! *walks off humming "New York, New York"*

[Link] | *rises from the depths of lurkdom* Due to a bit or prodding from folks (I'm looking at you, El), I'm finally doing a quick little update. I'll go into more detail on the summer later, when I'm not at risk of being late for Greek.
The semester thus far has been decidedly...meh. I really don't like my Greek Art and Archaeology professor, Greek has been kicking my ass, and I'm really worried about failing Homosexuality in Antiquity. On a ligher note, however, I am fully enjoying Greece and Egypt, Eta Sigma Phi has been fun and I haven't gotten into a major spat with Emily about the apartment. Also, I'm helping to run a Werewolf game in town, which definitelty has its ups and downs. Won't bore ya with the details, though; I know most of the folks who read this prolly won't understand most of the in-game stuff anyway. *grin*
Overall I'm doing pretty well, barring the fact that I'm sans Interweb on my computer at home. With luck the wireless router that Em's mom is going to send up will help; if not, I'm just gonna go buy one myself. I've either been doing stuff on campus or using Em's computer, which workd to a degree. I feel bad taking over her computer, though. *le sigh* With luck we'll get something figured out.
As today is my day for signing up for classes, I figured I'd post my schedule (as it is, anyway; haven't talked with my advisor yet). Enjoy.
Monday/Wednesday
Greek and Roman Epics 11:15-12:05
Beginning Latin 12:20-1:10
Tuesday/Thursday
Aegean Bronze Age Art and Archaeology 9:30-10:45
Age of Alexander 2:00-3:15
Myth in Greek Art 3:35-4:50
Friday
Greek and Roman Epics 11:15-12:05
Not too bad, eh? Only one class on Friday, good break between classes on T/R, done early most days (which will help when I finally find a job). I know the professors for all of the classes barring Myth in Greek Art and Latin II, which is a perk.
Anyhoo, I've gotta ramble if I'm gonna get to Greek on time. See you guys later.

[Link] | Lo, after much too long, I have returned to my poor neglected web journals. Now for the updating!
§My online classes have been going pretty well so far. Not sure if I'm going to hit the double A mark that I need, though. I'l gonna keep going, however.
§In case I haven't told you over IM, I got a job at Subway on May 19th. ^_^ It's nothing too big, but I'm having fun with it so far. Plus, one of the guys there is a gamer, so I have someone to talk nerdy with when we're on the same shift.
§Speaking of May 19th, I saw Revenge of the Sith opening night with Ron and a few of his friends. Although some of it was kinda meh *coughmostofthesceneswithNataliePortmancough*, overall it was a pretty damn good movie. If you haven't seen it yet, remedy this as soon as you can.
§Been hanging out with Ron a decent bit, and have finally met some other folks down here. Steve and Joey are pretty cool guys, I must say. Although, Joey's gf isn't really into the gaming scene, so it's kinda hard to get Joey to swing by for the occasional game that Ron runs. *shrug* Such is life.
§I'm slowly but surely getting things figured out for Nationals. I'm having problems getting a hold of my shot records *grumbles*, so I called them yesterday and they said that as long I get my forms in in the next day or two, I should still be fine. I also need to figure out how I'm getting there, since the university is about two hours away from the nearest airport. *looks to Heather* What are your thoughts on getting a rental or something?
§Been talking with Ben a bit, although not nearly as much as I'd like to. I finally found an international calling card, but the damn thing doesn't work. *fumes* I've also decided that, as soon as I have the money for it, I'm going to go see him in Germany. No idea when I'll be going or for how long, but I really want to do it.
§Brianna's summer is volleyball-filled, as usual. She's had a few tournaments, but the two big things coming up are the Nationals in Salt Lake City the first week of July and the camp at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs. If she makes the 12-man team at Colorado Springs, she'll be going to play in CHINA for about a week and a half. *grins* Awesome, huh?
§This year's trip to Jersey is going to be kinda special, because my grandfather is moving out of the house on the shore. It's just too big for him to take care of himself now. *sigh* I've got so many good memories about that house (and my Nana, who passed away...God, three summers ago?) that it's very odd to think about the fact that Poppop's not going to be in it anymore.
§While I'm in Jersey, I'm going to try to go to NYC for a day or two. I'm not sure what all we're going to be doing once we get to Jersey (decent bit of packing, I'll wager), but if I can, I really want to go and see El. *huggles Nora* Also, while I was watching the Tonys last Sunday (Go Spamalot! ^__^), I found out about a really interesting play called The Pillowman that I'd really like to go see. It's about an author in a totalitarian society who is being questioned about the bizarre short stories he writes; he's brought it because incidents strangely similar have been occuring in his town. I'm just just hoping it's still original cast by the time I get up there. *crosses fingers*
Hmm...*rereads post* I think that's about all of the major stuff that's happened since my last update. I'll try to keep it better updated, I promise. *wink* See you guys later.

At any rate, I'm going to bed now. With luck, a decent-sized post will be coming soonish.
*goes to press submit button, but pauses* Oh yeah, almost forgot. Like the new user pic? It's one of the many I have saved on my LJ icon collection, which broke 300 yesterday thanks to a stash of Firefly icons I came across. *beams*

[Link] | *looks at clock* Yet another night that I'm awake past 3 AM. I have a sneaking suspicion that my current sleep cycles may end up frelling me over at some point. *le sigh* Anyhoo, onto the update.
Friday classes went pretty well. I must say, I do love not having classes until 1:25. *grins* We took our first quiz in speech, which I think I did okay on. Japanese calligraphy was fun as always, and theory was pretty cool. I snagged some dinner with Heather, then headed to SO to watch My Cousin Vinny with Steph and El. Suzi and...Andrew, I think came over later. Much fun was had indeed. ^_^ After the movie wrapped, Tommy came and snagged me, then we headed to the Republic.
Saturday we went over to Tommy's place to watch a few movies and do some BBQing. By the by, if you haven't seen Equilibrium, remedy this. It's got a 1984-esque plot with some of the most amazing gun-fu I've ever seen. After Equilibrium we watched The Ninth Gate, another tres awesome movie. That one is about a book seller (played by Johnny Depp) who is hired by a famous book collector to authenticate the copy of a rather interesting book that he has. I won't go into anything more in case you haven't seen it yet, but it's teh awesome. Once we wrapped up The Ninth Gate, Tommy dropped me back at the dorm so I could change, then I made my way to Wescott for the a capella competition.
*grins* The competition was AWESOME. Although, I must admit, Yahtzee and Acabelles were my least fave groups that performed. My top spot, of course, goes to the fab boys of 36 Madison Avenue. Yeah, they weren't competing, but they totally stole the show. =D Speaking of Mad Ave, I did a bit of searching on facebook and found Justin (aka Little Spoon). ^_____^ I snagged the two Mad Ave CDs as well as last year's BOCA; Heather snagged quite a few others (and sent most of 'em to me today). After the competition (Go Loreleis! *grins*) I headed to game, then hit VI, said howdy to Spartacus, then crashed on the floor of the Republic.
Sunday I mostly just worked on my Greek HW, played City of Heroes, then headed home at some point that night/Monday morning. Monday I got up and went to my classes, killing some time in Stroizer inbetween classes. I actually stayed home on Monday, making a trip to Walmart with Melissa. After pondering for a while, I bit the bullet and bought City of Heroes for myself. I installed it that night, but then found out that I needed to dedicate myself for an additional month before I could play. After talking with Matt, he said that he could give me one of the game time cards that he had. *<3's Matt*
Tuesday I got up, somehow managed to stay awake in Egyptian A&A, went to Greek, then killed time in Stroizer until Matt came with the time card. Then I killed more time in Stroizer until I met Heather for dinner, then headed to SO to watch Life of Brian. Well, that was the plan, anyway. *grins* El had accidentally left the DVD in New York, so I ended up working on my Greek for a while then heading back home. *hugs Nora* No feeling bad for leaving them! I decree it so. When I got back, I tried running CoH. Emphasis on tried. Ends up that I don't have enough RAM to run the game w/o massive amounts of lag. >_< 'tis teh suck.
Yesterday I went to Greek, snagged lunch with Mike, listened to Brother Jed for a while, then went to Speech. After speech I listened to Jed while doing my theory hw, then high-tailed it to theory. After class I headed back to the dorm and started working on my website review for Egyptian A&A, which is due...well, today. While I worked, Heather sent me an insane amount of a capella, including the BOCA CDs from '99 to 2002 and two UNC Loreleis CDs. The 2002 CD is my fave thus far; the Tufts University Beelzebubs do an AWESOME version of Pink Floyd's "The Trial" on it.
I wrapped the project up at about 9:30, then snagged a ride to the Republic with Tommy and Matt. Matt made ziti and garlic bread, which was tres tasty. ^_^ I should cook for the guys again. It's been a good bit since I did. After FINALLY finishing my Greek at about 2:30, I asked Tommy if he could bring me back to the dorm, and here I am. Since getting back I started work on this post, talked with Erik for a while (and printed out his paper for Pullen's class tomorrow) and pondered whether I should pull an all-nighter or try to get at least three hours of sleep. Still pondering on that one.
At any rate, I can't really think of anything else to post about. See youse guys later.

*1/15 - First session of Mike and Quincy's Changeling game, which was teh awesome. ^__^

*1/17 - Snagged Cici's for lunch; finished Greek translation, got back to the dorm at about 2:30AM
*1/18 - Actually stayed awake during my Egyptian Archaeology class; bumped into John Terlowe at the SLB and talked with him for a while; found out what Nora's having to deal with; eventually fall asleep at 3:30AM.
Today I've got Greek, Speech and Theory. I'm gonna try to hook up with Heather for lunch, which shall be nice considering I haven't seen her in a while. Other than that, I'm not sure what's gonna happen. At any rate, I've gotta haul butt if I'm gonna make it to class on time. See youse guys later.
Catch you on the flip side...

[Link] | Today, my friends, has been a good day. True, I didn't fall asleep until about 6:30 this morning and got up at 10, but even considering that, it's been a good day.
I had originally planned on meeting Heather for breakfast this morning, but that changed after I only got three hours of sleep. After IMing Heather, I slept for another hour, then got ready and made the trek to the Shores building for Greek II.
Greek wasn't too bad. The room doesn't have any windows, so it feels a little claustrophobic, and it was kinda hot in there. Most of the people from Greek I were in there, so I knew people. Dr. Stoddard seems pretty cool so far; apparently Dr. Griffin spoke of us with high regard. *grins* After class I talked with Kim and Phil (not Miller, the other one), then snagged a hot dog before my Speech class in Bellamy. That went pretty well; the class is almost all upperclassmen, which is kinda funny.
After class, I went to go check out the bazaar and saw that the people with all of the posters are back. I looked through 'em all, found a really cute one that I'm gonna send Bri (here's a pic), then saw that they were looking for help. I inquired within and found out that they needed help getting the posters packed up about an hour from then and they were 'paying' students with $10 worth of credit towards buying posters for each hour they worked. Not wanting to pass up the opportunity to snag a few new posters, I had a late lunch (was still hungry after the hot dog) and helped them tidy up the posters in the sleeves and carried stuff over to the truck. I've got time to kill both tomorrow and Friday, so I'm prolly gonna go work with 'em again, then cash in my credit on Monday. If you want a free poster or two, lemme know when you can hit the Union on Monday. I've got a break from 12 to 1:20 and from 2 until they close at 4.
After working the poster thing, I headed back to my dorm and here I am. All in all, not too bad of a day, eh?
By the by, I noticed that the OCRemix links on my playlist don't work. *le sigh* Now I need to find some new songs to stick here. Will hafta go looking for more music sites after I snag dinner with Heather and do my Greek HW. Anyhoo, hope you enjoyed my first actual update in about two months. I'll definitely try to keep it up, nut you guys know me and weblogs. *winks* See ya.
