It's as if going to college you must sign up for stress. It's all too confusing, and irratable. Right now I'm sitting at a computer and was registering for classes. I have to take a Biology class here, in my hometown, and for the lab I must drive out of state to Oregon! Why can't there be a lab here?! There's one for the stupid Chemistry class that I have to take, it doesn't make sense!
I'm researching scholarships right now as well. It's coming up with a whole lot of nothing. It seems to qualify for many scholarships, you need to have been involved in some sort of sport! I'm getting a headache! I have that stupid speech coming up, stupid scholarship search, and I have to find a permanent transportation to Ontario during the week in Fall!

Doing Speeches suck
It's true, and you all know it! I have to give a speech today, and I'm not looking forward to it one bit. I can understand why a class like this would exist, but I don't see why we actually have to do speeches in order to understand why they are done. The speech I have to do is a memorization speech ( I chose a Poem), I'm a good way through it, in memorization, but I think that I might fail when I actually have to present it to the entire class. It's stupid, and I hate it. I'm also very tired, so I'm irratable anyway. If I'm still tired by the time 6pm Mountain Time rolls around, then I probably will have been F***** two ways from Friday!
Eh, I'll probably update this on how it went if I don't skip the class.

Two blogs in one day?
Seriously there must be something wrong here right? Nope, I just feel really bored right now so I might as well write another one. Currently I'm sitting in my school's computer lab doing my "homework", waiting for my next class to begin. I'm very exhausted right now... I'm not even kidding. I feel like I might pass out over this computer and destroy it with my drool. It sucks that my next class is 3 hours long... GRRR! Well at least when I'm done with it, I won't have to take it again! :D However, it doesn't mean that my future classes won't be hard... I have to take like 7 math classes in order to get my associates degree... I guess that an Associate's of Arts in Psychology makes me a math genius when I'm done. How nice.
Right now it's 5:40 PM, I have my next class in only 20 minutes... *Groans*. I have to sit through it and listen to my instructor talk and/or read from our speech book. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that my Princess Diana Speech went well, although it was under the time I was supposed to get it. Our next speech is going to be on "Memorization", in which we have to memorize a poem, etc. I was thinking about doing one on guilt. I have 2 of them at home and it would make it far more conveniant to just use one of them instead of having to look all over the place for some. Right?
Well I had best get going! I like being pretty early to my classes so I had best get a move on.
PS: I'm hungry!

Attention Pokemon Nerds!
I probably shouldn't have titled it that way, since I am one myself! Anyway, there is going to be an upcoming Darkrai Event for all US Toy's R Us stores! So if you haven't bought your Diamond/Pearl game, and have beaten it, I suggest you do it now!!!
Here's some info!
If that headline appeared nigh undecipherable to your uninitiated eyes, count yourself very, very lucky, and quickly move on to the next story. Those whose hearts and pokeballs perked up upon seeing that teasing title will be happy to know that the heretofore uncatchable Darkrai, of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl fame, will be made quite catchable come the weekend of May 31 - June 1, when participating Toys R' Us stores will digitally distribute the inn key required to reach said public enemy no. 491.Though it's been a year since the monster enslaving simulator was released, we're sure that the retailer will find themselves slammed by DS-wielding trainers-in-training over the course of that weekend. We doubt that the avarice of many a poketrainer has been slaked by the current digital menagerie -- as they march onward into adorable battle, do they shout, "Gotta Catch All But One or Two of Them?" No, their kind is inclined to catch them all, and then, in some terrifying cases, their shiny counterparts.

Sickness, and Homework
Without a doubt, I believe that getting sick has to do with my laziness. Not laziness like laying around doing nothing, but laziness when it comes to my homework. I'm piled up with a TON of it, not even kidding. Most of it was assigned on Tuesday, but I'm starting to get on it now. I have a speech do on Tuesday along with a math assignment, and an English Composition Essay. Eh, talk about busy! For some people though, this isn't as busy as a lot of them really are.
I realise that I've actually been posting blogs now. It seems that I have much more to write about. Of course, if someone were to look at previous blogs, I wrote maybe 1 per month. I'm on a roll!!!
Hopefully I feel better before Monday, I have a quiz that day... Well hopefully I do, I can't think when I'm sick... It just doesn't work out.

Whoa, College!
Yesterday was my first day of college. I only had one class : Ethnic Studies. It wasn't as bad as I had originally assumed, but of course it was only one class. So far today, I have had 2 class, and I have 2 more left. Today I had Algebra, and Orientation to college. After I'm done writing this, I will going on to my English Composition class, and the follow to my Fundamentals of Speech. Eh, I can't complain, so far the experience is okay, and nothing bad has happened (Knock On Wood). I must say though that even the used books are expensive! Ek! I should apply for scholarships, wait, I have been... But it seems right when I go to get the apps it's already past the deadline! Dang, Guess I'll have to wait for awhile then.

So much time, so nothing new
It has been forever since I've written. But it's always that way now it seems. I'm currently on a journey of self discovery but I usually keep those around me in the dark about my interior motives. They're are not homicidal! I realize that nowadays you have to ensure people or else they can get mixed messages and something that's totally not true. However, people are not always what they say they are... People are random... Before I totally go off the wagon and start complaining about people that I dislike, and what I dislike about them... I'll just change the subject to something a little less extreme and a little less awkward.
I'm sure whomever reads this could probably tell that I enjoy writing, and probably should get into something that could really help my writing improve. I originally wanted to be a journalist, but the college that I'll be attending doesn't offer it.. I had to go with my second choice which is Psychology. It has some certain writing aspect to it, but not as much as I would love. Eh, things don't turn out how you want them... But I don't believe that. People use that saying all the time when they can't get something they won't, but I won't give up. If it takes me 10 years to go to school for journalism then so be it.
Now unto music. Recently I have opened my mind to the new possibilities of varoius music. At first, when I started to like music, I retained only 3 bands : Evanescence, Avril Lavigne, and Garbage. Now, it's upto somewhere around 20 bands/artists. They usually retain around the genres of my first three bands/artists, because they are central to the my preferred tastes. There are exceptions though. Such as Fergie, or ABBA. Fergie as many know is more like a Pop/Hip Hop kind of ordeal. While ABBA is Europop/Disco.
I find that I really like ABBA's music. I know it's old, but not that old. Their first album was released like in the early 70's. I can't really explain one reason why I like them, because there is more than one reason. I can say though why I got into them in the first place. I was watching the TV show MADtv on youtube, it was a skit on one of my favourite characters "Miss Swan". She accidentally went to a gay bar and realized that she couldn't find someone to like her. Then music started coming on, and everyone began dancing. She went over to a bar stool and started singing "Dancing Queen". I didn't really like it because of how she sang it, so I looked it up on Napster. That's how I came across ABBA, and the song "Dancing Queen" started it all. Even now, I find that "Dancing Queen" is my favorite and always will be. It was also the first music video that I saw by them.
Now, onto my Language skills. I would say now that my linguistic skills have improved immensely. I can communicate rather comfortably in French, with some minor problems. Those problems in being not knowing some translations for vocabulary, and not knowing some verbs. I've got the grammar down, except with some very VERY difficult things. They are too complicated to even try to discuss. Anyway, I can write French now without having to think much about it. Many French acquintances tell me that it (French) has improved a lot. Spanish itself has too. I don't even study it, but I'm around speakers from Mexico and Guatemala all the time now. I listen their converstations with my mother and am able to catch onto what the conversation is about. I've been told by them that I have a very good accent when it comes to Spanish... Hmm, could it be natural? Well I do like Salsa and hot stuff.
Well here is my update that is very long overdue.
