O hay thar, emo update.

So, pretty sure my 2+ year relationship is over. I'm going to go stay at my mom's for a week next week to see if a little break will help any, but I don't think it will.

I have never cried so much or felt so lonely sharing a bed with someone so oblivious. At the same time, I'm scared of having it be over... He's my best friend. Lately it feels like we've been roommates instead of lovers.

I should really go back to bed.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Items:

- I really need to clean my fish tank.

- Breakfast groups have started at work! This means that I am up most days by 5:30 or 6 in order to get to work on time. Sleep, I miss you.

- School starts again on tuesday. Another summer of having no life, hello.

- Beer, I miss you too.

- I've been so stupidly sleepy lately, taking naps and going to bed early. Also, I think my kidneys might be infected again.

- Tax rebate = $550ish. Yay! I am buying new shoes as soon as I deposit the cheque. And then paying tuition with the rest.

- More things... no time. Real update soon.

Why, hello there journal. Nice to see you again!

I keep meaning to sit down and write an entry, but I seem to always get distracted partway through.

Work and studying has been keeping me busy, and... I decided to change my major to just Earth Science instead of ES and chem. Long story short, I get to sell some of my textbooks which makes me extremely happy, haha. Also, I will get to graduate sooner and take... electives! Huzzah.

So, instead of taking a fun mathy chemistry course this summer, I will be taking a biology course. I registered yesterday for it, was 19th on the waitlist for the lecture section and 5th on the waitlist for the lab... this morning when I checked, I had moved up one spot in the lecture! 18th. Excellent. Still 5th for the lab, though.

I'm secretly very excited about being a dirty biologist this summer. Shhh.

Let's see, what else?

Not much else. Watching Firefly again. And now, I must study for organic chem. Erinn, away!

Dear LJ, I'm sorry I've been neglecting you. Sincerely, me.

I've been trying to sort out my degree requirements, so I know what courses I need to take. I have 2 conflicting sources: a degree planning worksheet which says it's up-to-date (2009/2010 calendar year), and the actual calendar itself. I'm sure it will sort itself out... and I need to make an appointment with my adviser anyways.

I've got it lined up so that next year, I can take the following courses:

CHEM:
- Organic Chemistry (235)
- Physical Chemistry (245)
- Transition Metal Chemistry (324)
- Physical Chemistry Lab (364)

EOS:
- Sedimentary Geology (201)
- Mineralogy (205)
- Geochemistry (240)

MATH:
- Calculus II (101)
- Introduction to Differential Equations (201)
- Multivariable Calculus (205)

PHYS:
- General Physics (102)

Pretty okay, I think. Not looking forward to all the Math! of! DOOM! but I'm sure it will be fine. After next year, I will never have to take another math course again... excluding Quantum Chemistry which is all math. Boo.

Things with the boy are pretty good, I think. Except when he doesn't turn his alarm clock off on both of our days off and it wakes me up. Grr. Oh well. ♥ I plan on dragging him downtown with me today so that I may snag some bubble tea (yuuum!).

Today is the grad photo for the Chemistry department grads... followed by a pizza lunch. Pizza which I have to go and get and carry up to the 4th floor of ELL. By myself. Not win.

I went over to Simon's place last night with Dave... good times abounded. I made spaghetti. We ate apple crumble with earl gray tea. It was delightful!

In closing, lemon yogurt is quite tasty.

Our renos are finally (sort of) done!

There's a few little things that we're missing (transitions between rooms, a few shelves), a LOT of things we need to buy (oh god), and a moderate amount of cleaning that needs to be done.

Today, I'm planning on cleaning the whole place from top to bottom (we need cleaning supplies...) and we're going to move the rest of The Boy's things in tonight.

Well, off to clean!

Tonight, we get to sleep in a double bed... finally.

(The boy & I have been sharing a twin size bed for the past 6.5 months. It has been quite... cozy. I've gotten a few elbows to the face & fallen off the bed a lot...)

Huzzah!

Also, the current moodtheme I'm using is very disappointing. I think I will have to get a new set.

Items:

- Wrote organic midterm.
- Wrote 260 final (we have 2 profs teaching; I have another final at the beginning of April).
- I am writing the lab report for B90, about cobalt cage complexes. Fun times abound.
- Pub crawl on Friday = win win win. Our shirt design looks really awesome; it's a wine bottle pouring, with the 1H NMR of ethanol forming out of the wine.
- Student elections start today! Usually the voter turn out is really poor (17% of the student population voted last year...), but... we'll see.

Ah, that's about it. Not much is going on at the moment...

The Olympics are happening! Several of my friends have gone over to Vancouver for the week to paaaarty it up (loads of free shows = daglksjgagWANT), but I'm staying home to, you know, do, uh, stuff.

My reading week has been quite unproductive, likely due to the fact I spent most of it in bed. Oh well.

I did, however, buy myself a new wallet! It's yellow and delightful and has just the right amount of room for stashing all my shiz. Also, my old wallet was literally falling apart at the seams. There has been more than one instance where I went to grab something out of it and ended up with all my change/cards on the ground.

Today, I plan on plugging away at some organic chem and maaaaybe studying for my final in 260 next week. Probably a good plan, at any rate.

Oh, one more thing: they released the final exam schedule and summer course list. I will be done by April 15th at 5pm! Good stuff. Also, I plan on taking 2 or 3 courses this summer (calculus II and analytical chem, possibly physics) depending on how much work plans on fucking me around. Oh work. ffffffff.

Life update:

So, ah, I've spent the last 3 days in bed... with a kidney infection. :( Much suckage. Today was the first day my fever actually broke and I haven't been too dizzy to get up and walk around. Antibiotics are working! I've had absolutely no appetite, so other than like a handful of grapes, all I've been having has been water.

Um, yeah. Not a lot happens when you're lying around in bed feeling poorly, I suppose.

Also: Sick on Valentine's day = suck.
maoli: (smoke baby smoke baby)
Right-o, I write a midterm in 3 hours...

Time to go paint some baseboards and prime a few walls!

*runs off*
maoli: (usa-chan!)
Well, time to break in the new journal.

I had [livejournal.com profile] frogpillow for a long time - just over 5 years; it feels like it's time for a change.

Also, I am a huge nerd. (Pnictogens = group 15/nitrogen group elements).

Ah, in other news, I'm making dinner for a couple of friends tomorrow night-- both of whom I work with/go to school with. I love having friends who are in different programs then the one I'm in; Dave is an engineer turned compsci major, and Simon is a history major/sociology minor. They're both hilarious and I adore them.

I'm making Nova Scotian seafood chowder, a colourful salad with a vinaigrette dressing, homemade french bread, and I'm thinking about making a pineapple upside down cake for dessert. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

In other, school related news... math smells.
