so tomorrow is thanksgiving, supposedly a time for giving thanks and appreciating your family. But to be honest- we just eat a lot adn watch TV. Still, my number three favorite holiday(behind Christmas adn the 4th of July), and since I love to cook, I'm especially excited about tommorrow becasue I'm cooking my first thanksgiving dinner. woohoo.
Anyway, happy thanksgiving everyone!
wow, can't believe I've been on here almost all day. and mostly on the heroes board.
today is my fourth day without meat. Not something I plan on making permanent, but ever since we read an excerpt from "the jungle" by upton sinclair in US history on Thursday, I've been too disgusted to eat meat.
I got TOSed today, for posting off topic. I was in the tech support forum about the levels not running and someone made some post and I replied to their joke, and got TOSed. I understand, but I still think it is silly.
anyway, its all good.
Heroes countdown to "save the cheerleader, save the world"- 25 hrs and 55 mins.
woohoo!! Finally got to level five(after the levels ran- with a catch-up- yay!) on Friday I think. I'm excited- seems like the levels have been going faster.
On a completely unrelated topic- i watched SNL last night and was severely dissapointed. Probably because after Friday and the Chapel Hill Players, it just didn'tseem as funny. This show is going downhill fast.
Heroes Countdown to "Save the Cheerleader, Save the World"- 36 hours, 25 minutes. Hooray!
(sorry for my extreme amount of happiness- I have a feeling today is going to be good. :D)
Hola all! So yesterday I took the day off(my school gives one day not counted as an absence for college visits) and went to "Carolina Close Up". Basically, I was invited to an event at the University of North Carolina of Chapel Hill with transportation. I got up way early and caught a van with a few other people from my area. Once there, they took us to the fanciest building on campus(like we wouldn't realize that he rest of the campus isn't as nice:P), the Alumni Center and gave us a really nice brunch. They had a Q&A session with a panel of four professors and four students about admissions and academics- totally boring and about a bunch of stuff i already knew. Then we went to lunch at the Ramshead(if you ever go to chapel hill, eat there. apparently, it's the best place to eat on campus.), which was also paid for. Then we went back for another hour speech on study abroad, research, and student life(by the student body president). also boring. then they let us go talk to the study abroad people, students who had conducted research projects, and club representatives. They gave us a bit too much time for that, but it was interesting. Found out a bit about study abroad, and did something I'm kinda proud of. This is about to get personal and serious, so be warned.
they had about fifteen clubs(of 600, hmmm) represented. I talked to the Habitat for Humanity person, the student government and student ambassador reps, and to the GLBTQS rep. That is what made me proud of myself because, I've never really came out(except just now i guess:roll:, and to a few friends), and in a room full of strangers I just went and talked to the rep. Very public. Anyway, i'm probably being totally dramatic,and corny and stupid, but whatever.
So the day was good, especially since we ended it with a improv show. This group, CHiPS, performed. it was hilarious. I almost died, my cheeks hurt and I was crying, it was so funny. We definitely should have done that all day. Anyway, sorry for my seriousness, and the long rambling post.
So, I'm up an hour early this morning because I have to be somewhere early. Now I am usually ready to go by the time I would have to leave, but I just couldn't give up my internet time. And I had to study.
anyway, so I got up early and got on the computer, and, drum roll please....I got five submissions approved. Yay! I knew I probably would eventually anyway, but that's the most at a time. Hmmm..I think I see level 5 in my near future...
i feel so stupid asking this(seems like a theme today. html-retarded this morning, couldn't get the derivatives right for derivative bingo in calculus today, didn't understand chem until I read each paragraph 3 times...), but where can i get the banners that people have in their signatures?
ok, anyone who has followed my blogs has noticed how annoyed I've been about the little problems I've been having with tv.com. But I'm feeling a bit more cheery now. Why you ask? well, the mail problem has stopped happening. and i made some more friends, and then there is the fact that I realized that Thanksgiving is only a week and two days away. I knew it was close, but hadn't realized...
anyway, that means a two day school week. Yay! and gilmore girls and veronica mars are on tonight- some laughs and feel-good moments(can't wait for the proposal on gilmore girls tonight) will do me good.
Now if only I could forget the huge AP Chem test i have thursday....
P.S.- i just started blogging about 4 or 5 days ago- and I'm already addicted...just something I realized as this is my 3rd(4th?) blog post today.
Ok, this is going to be a very long random post- just so you know.
So, I watched heroes last night(as I do every week), and it was the best episode so far. It had been getting slow- but not last night. And-spoiler alert!!!!-
I so called that HRG was good and that Mohinder hd a power.
On a non-tv note(my first post with one), my sister is going back to school after getting her wisdom teeth out, so that means no more bad coming of age teen girl movies. (ok, so I liked stick it, and the perfect man was ok but aquamarine? Seiously!)
Still having the mail problem, but I did get a submission approved this morning. But a couple did get denied- i can't get the html right on quotes. Gosh i feel computer retarded. Lol.
