I just came really close to falling asleep.
I'm such a mess today.
There are not enough hours in this day.
I have to read philosophy and I can barely keep my eyes open as it is. Of course, my mother will not leave me alone long enough for me to read a paragraph.
Our power has been out for the past 2 hours.

LOST is so damn scary right now. I have to go take an IQ test for five hours today.
I was starving so I opened a cup-of-noodles-like thing and found a dead fruit fly squashed on the inside wall of the cup. I lost my appetite.
I've watched so many scary things this weekend about haunted houses that I'm getting paranoid...
I could've used like four more hours of sleep.
4-hours shifts at work kick ass.
I just had to interview a woman who is going bankrupt...and she was a total b*tch!

"I just had to interview a woman who is going bankrupt...and she was a total b*tch!"
If I was going bankrupt I wouldn't be very happy.
And Jen, you are never on AIM and I miss you!! Oh, by the way, I had some runts the other day!!
I haven't had runts in forever.
I am online sometimes...but the working world has sucked me in, haha.
And this lady was trying to tell me what I could and could not put in the article. She didn't understand that bankruptcy details are public file.

Oh, I see. lol
In class we have to do critical assignment projects and as some of you know, I did Curious George (H.A. and Margret Rey).
I forget the author this other girl did but she read "Lilly's Plastic Purple Purse" We had to do an extension activity so we made...purses. Even the guys- it really was fun actually. I really felt like a 2nd grader.
However, I think I had a bit too much fun.
It's a plastic ziploc bag with construction paper folded to make it colorful inside and then a paper crumpled into a line thing and stapled to make the handle.
And now I'm off to Applied Learning Theory which isn't anywhere near as fun.
UGH. I walked into my bedroom to find a mouse crawling across my desk. I'm not really afraid of mice, it just kind of startled me. And while I'm not really afraid of mice, I also don't really want one in my bedroom. So I called facilities and while they were very nice, they told me that oh, sorry, their exterminator just left for the day and he could come tomorrow (please, by all means, wake me up at 8 a.m. tomorrow when I haven't slept in days!). So I asked them if they had traps, and they don't. This is New York City. Why the hell don't they keep mouse traps around? This is so stupid. I have to be in class in 20 minutes and now I have to go find a mousetrap.
Whoa, that is terrible! In that vein, the first two days of school last semester my room was infested with bees. Apparently there was a crack between the window and the ceiling where they were getting in. The janitor had sprayed insecticide at the hive, which only made the bees want to come inside even more. So for two days I slept in a room with a ton of bees.
Now I've moved rooms, and the light doesn't work. You really have to complain and complain to the people in charge to get them to do anything.

I have to make a children's book (1st grade). I've gotta draw the pictures too (and I am far from an artist) but the teacher said that stick figures can be very useful and often better than "real drawings."
I want to do something with theatre and the like but I think that's a little old for 1st grade.
I'm thinking about something like, "Molly goes to the zoo" but that sounds really dull. It's a pass or fail grade but I still want to make it interesting.
ANY IDEAS???
My thighs are agonizingly sore.
It's all that friction, Jaily.

Here is my story. It needs to be tweaked so if anyone wants to help, it'd be appreciated.
Molly and her mother go to the zoo on Saturday after Molly’s hard week at school. At 10am they arrive.
Molly wants to see the Giraffes first. As she and her mother are watching the Giraffe’s graze on the grass, Molly feels something fall on her head. A bird went to the bathroom!
Molly’s mother fears that she is going to start crying but instead, Molly giggles. As they walk toward the bathroom to clean up, they see a beautiful peacock.
Molly is so fascinated with the peacocks many colors that her mother has to urge her into the bathroom to clean up.
After Molly cleans up, she and her mother make their way to see Molly’s favorite animal—monkeys!
They must first pass the lion exhibit to get to the monkeys. When they begin to pass the lion exhibit, Molly screams and runs in the opposite direction. Molly is afraid of lions.
Although the lions are in the cage, Molly fears that the lions will eat her. Her mother runs after her, scoops her up and sits her down at a nearby picnic table. She explains that the lions will not hurt her because they are in a blocked area. Molly tells her mother that lions eat people. Her mother reassures her that the lions have their own food and do not eat people.
After the short talk, Molly agrees to walk past the lion exhibit to see the monkeys.
As she and her mother walk by, the zookeeper is feeding the lions. Molly watches very carefully and is excited to realize that the lions are not hurting the zookeeper.
After watching the feeding, Molly and her mother go to see the monkeys.
Just 10 minutes later, Molly asks to go see the lions again. Molly tells her mother that she is no longer afraid of lions and they are now her favorite animal. She and her mother watch the lions for 1 hour.
The zookeeper informs them that he will be giving a talk about lions. Molly and her mother go to the area the zookeeper is talking about the lions. After the talk, each person is allowed to get a picture with the lion. Molly was thrilled to get a picture with the lion and the zookeeper.
Molly’s mother bought her a stuffed lion from the souvenir shop to bring home. Molly loved it so much that she slept with it instead of her blanket.
I just have to figure out how I'm going to draw the pictures. And I want to do the bird pooping on her head but I don't think I phrased it very well.
I just cut my finger opening a can of cat food.
I woke up miserably ill.

Me, too, Emcee. My throat and ears are rebelling. Uuuuuugh.
Eeek. Feel better!
I took a 3 hour nap yesterday, and so I couldn't go to bed when I wanted to. Now I'm super tired and want to take a nap again...but I don't want to not be able to sleep again.
I woke up from my nap covered in hives and have no idea why. That's...not good.
