Let me see. I’m on my fourth class. I’m taking a train to Texas next weekend for my monumental summer event. I just got back from watching Shrek the Third and it was cute. I keep finding myself in awkward situations. I’m reading three books at once, two of which I’ve read before and the third I started to read years ago. I’m also going through this nostalgic music phase, and am currently listening to my well-worn copy of Jesus Freak. Oh, and I forgot Music Monday… and seeing as how it’s Saturday (early early morning Saturday to be exact), I’ll just wait until Monday. Work’s not been that bad this week. Tomorrow I’m going to freak out on my room and clean it. It really is a mess. I’ve been playing the Sims 2 more than is probably healthy… and staying up way too late just to talk to the friends that don’t sign on until eleven or twelve. My toe hurts. I can’t find any motivation to write. Myspace is more addicting than it should be… because it’s such a frustratingly stupid site. I’m one cat short of halfway to my goal of twenty-two… and we’ve all got reason to believe that Tia’s been at it again.

That, in a long rambling paragraph, is what’s been going on in my life over the past week or so. Happy? Good, I am!

Well, it’s back to the classroom! College really isn’t coming through right now. It’s really frustrating… and I’m sure I could be doing a million things better. I’m not going to dwell on that right now.

Besides that, none of the colleges around here have a great web design program (most don’t have one at all), and there’s not even any art institutes, like Andrew suggested. Anyhow, the local tech center (Gordon Cooper) has online classes… and quite a few that are on web and graphic design. Hooray! That means no fussing with my work schedule (I really do like working days) and no transportation issues (another story entirely). Classes start tomorrow. I got to bypass all of the way, way easy courses (Shawna, they teach you to use tables and iframes and <FONT> tags… oh my!).

I was a nerd in school. I’m really excited about starting this tomorrow. Six weeks! I’ll be having a blast. We’ll see how it goes tomorrow.

Edit: I “attended” my first class today… and really enjoyed it. It was informative and didn’t assume you were an idiot. I think this will be a fun six weeks!

A turn for the better. I won’t see a guy that’s been really annoying me until this weekend, Becky and Ben are coming to visit me at work tomorrow, I’ve got a new Music Monday song up, I’m finding incentive to do things again, and it looks like I’ll actually be able to go to Texas next month. Finally, a good day!

I’ve found myself having some weird conversations this month. But that’s another story for another day.

Anyhow, what I’ve been wondering is this. We all know this site is boring. Boring as all getout!! So, what can I do to make it more exciting… or is there no hope for me?
