Bad Luck
Music: None... well, maybe I'll turn something on... starting with Outkast
Feeling: Stressed, sleepy and I don't wanna study
I wonder if pyschoanyalists are making less money these days since blogging seems to make you feel better. After not updating my page for about three whole days, I have become slightly more anti social then usual, snappy and grumpy. Suzie swears though it's because of the lack of sleep and the long term effects of being stressed out for to long. It's easy for her to say since she's in the visual arts program.
Actually, maybe it's because of the crappy, crappy week I'm having. I accidentally dropped bio (Very long story, may or may not be funny depending on how I'm feeling.) and am currently petitioning to get back in, but the problem is that I can't reach my bio prof. His TAs recognize me since I drop by his office all the time now since he doesn't have any office hours anymore, BUT HE'S NEVER THERE. I got to get to him somehow! I have e-mailed him, walked up many flights of stairs to get to the damn office and now am phoning him up and leaving messages. I have to explain that my exam might not get marked since I'm technically not part of the class, but the board won't review my petition before Saturday anytime soon. Argh.
I can't wait until exams are over. Because what will I be doing when that Bio exam is over? Trying to madly catch up with English with others, getting ready for my campaign and sleeping. Oh, and dropping by my distant cousin's 100th day party.

Study Rooms, Singing and Other Such
Background Music: Gone Till November by Wyclef Jean
Feeling: So very exhausted from studying. I wonder why when you don't move at all when you study.
Today was a very productive day since I had a 10 hour break after my pysh class until my 4:00 class for English Lit (Which was very interesting. Some people think that Clockwork Orange is the work of the devil or evil, but don't realize that it's a great book.) The 10 hours were used to study for the Pysh and Bio exams and to skip down to the down the sacred halls of learning of UTSC with Naliah to where cotton candy was selling for 25 cents, something I could afford. Actually, it was free, but the 25 cents was going to a good cause, and I can't help but like good causes.
While studying, I realized a few things about the study rooms in the ARC. You need ear and nose plugs. Not only are there construction noises (Which my friend from Carleton was shocked about when we trekked to UTSC for reading week. I think she's been away from Toronto to long and has forgotten Toronto's mantra of "Construction is a good thing, unlike Martha's insider trading".) The rooms smell funky. And I don't mean the smell of the food that everyone brings in, but it smelled like shoe polish at one point. Really strongly. And people talk in completely silent rooms. I mean, aren't they imitated by the complete silence of a room packed full of people, staring at their books? And you know that everyone is listening to their conversations, which is sometimes very interesting. I heard about a stripper/student in a bio class and some fellow bio classmates crying over bio. Hell, some people even sing in class. One time there was a girl singing ABBA due to the fact that she saw Mamma Mia recently. Hell, if people weren't listening to the story about the stripper/student in that bio class, there were for sure listening to that girl sing. Or maybe that girl who was talking to herself why studying, trying to memorize a list. Hell, I talk to myself when I study, BUT AT HOME. I'm not that anti social yet.
On a random note, UTSC needs more windows. There's not enough colour either. If I was on the Board of Directors, then I would so something about it. Hint, hint.
Okay, must study now. Wait, damn it, my philosophy assignment that I have to do since I missed the last two.

The Worst Day EVER
Background Music: None
Feeling: Like it's the most crappiest day in the world
It was a horrible day yesterday/this very early morning. I phoned home and found out that the car is smashed, and then I came home at 4:30 in the morning to my mom who was still awake who started to tell me off about not phoning, which I did, I left a message with James. But then James wakes up and denies everything until I start to remind him of our conversation. So my parents are mad at me and I'm mad at James for being stupid because he can't even remember a phone conversation or remember important messages. (The number of times I lost job interviews because of him.) The I wake up four hours later at 9:00 to hear my parents fighting with insurance company, something that the accident wasn't their fault and god damn, why won't anyone listen? (The answer would be if they just calmed down and not be rude, but my mom never listens to that advice. And to everyone else, you get done things faster if you're nice because as an ex-office assistant, we make you wait as long as possible to spite you.) Then I get a phone called from one of the parents that I tutor and find out that I'm fired, and then another one where I find out that the other kids cancelled on my again this week, it looks like the dad is stuck on the East Coast because of the weather and can't drive the kids over. So again, I have no money. And even worse is that cell bill came and it's bloody $80.00. This is the second time I've been over, I got to get a new plan, but with a sudden decrease in my income I can't even afford that. And now my mom isn't very happy about that fact either. And my friends.

Background Music: Nothing, in the comp lab at school
Feeling: In full study mode. Really.
I'm rich! I found 20 cents that was hidden away in my wallet, so my grand total has gone up to 24 cents. Wow! Even if I said that I wasn't going to use my credit cards or debits cards, I broke my promise today, since my mom made me pay for all these supplies at Business Depot since I was getting another desklamp. (Bad light annoys me to no end. Almost as much as not having enough sunlight.) But now my mom owes me exactly $1.50. That means I can get some of these slides printed for Pysh! Wow.
I think I need a job. I've been broke since Tuesday. Twenty dollars doesn't get you very far in life, since 19 dollars goes towards bus tickets for the week. That or I need to take on some more kiddies to tutor.
But on a happier note, I got a phone call from Dan! Haven't heard you for awhile Mr. Engineer Student. And if I don't see you guys, have a safe trip back to school Dilys and Jo! And good luck on those mid terms. Wait. You guys are finished with them. Never mind, but think of me on Saturday at 9:00 am. If you're awake.
Okay, back to pysh, bio and philosophy. I came to school for a reason, and that's to study on a Friday. Because I meant to study at home yesterday, but ended up rearranging my posters on my wall to make room for this kick ass movie poster that Wendy gave me, Nicholas Nickelby, or whatever that book by Dickens is called. I also found out that my mom threw out my French Ice Age movie poster that James got me.

13 Ways of Looking At a Blackbird
Background Music: Not very sure, but from the early 90's
Feeling: Of 3 minds. Should I go to school? Stay home? Take a shower and go to school? Decisions, decisions.
Well, I went to Mac, my old high school to watch the Mac strings compete, but missed most of it since Dilys and I were late. (Big surprise there.) It was more fun to see everyone again. "Where's my fucking pear?!" Amanda, Angela, Tim, Alex, Rob and his new Beer Store shirt, Vanessa and others. (There were a lot of people Heather, didn't I do a good job? I even convinced Dilys to wake up at 7:30) The only prob was that some of us lost the others. So sorry la!
It was so strange to cut through the caf again. It smelled the same, with fries, pizza and dirtiness. The only thing missing are the tables that play ma jong. The music room replaced their carpet last year, but it's starting to get the years of spit smell that's soaked from the clarinets and other woodwind instruments. It's not as strong as it was in my music days, but it's getting there.
Okay, I really got to study. Even Lydz isn't talking on msn b/c of midterms.

Studying... hahahahahaha. No
Background Music: None
Feeling: Full. And very broke
Well I went to UTSC to study since I can't at home since the noise distracts me like hell. The radio going, the music in the basement blaring away, the t.v. in the living room...
Yeah, but UTSC isn't any better. I went today with Dilys and I almost fell asleep in the ARC while Twiggy (Whose real name I can never remember) was busy scanning my Pysh handbook. My body couldn't understand why it was school was so warm that day and my brain was telling me to become very drowsy and stayed like that until Twiggy came back. Which is where we commenced talking. Then she left after Dilys and I took over the entire desk (I had a lot of stuff) until I got a call from Jo about a dinner which she was paying for. (I love you Jo.) Which I dragged Nick and his housemate Benny along to and while we were waiting for the bus, I found out that the guy who I saw dancing in his briefs was called Jason.
At dinner I found out that I had exactly 4 cents left in my wallet and a Subway coupon. And 40 cents on my T card for photocopying. My last dollar went towards a coffee, a worthy cause. Damn, those kids that I tutor better not cancel on me again this week. I need the money. Maybe I should take on another kid.
So in conclusion I got almost no studying done (I went through 2 chapters in about 6 hours) and am officially broke, unless I start using my credit card, but I refuse to. I'm not going to. No way.
Quote of the Day

- "Old people have a lot of sex. No really, I work at a pharmacy." (Nick)
- Pause. "Eww, I see my grandparents in my head! Ah, no, no!" (Kate)

Coffe and Lattes
Background Music: Remember to Breathe
Feeling: I gotta study... but the light in my room sucks since I still haven't replaced my desk lamp that blew out
I have found a new site it's so bloody funny -----> http://www.illwillpress.com Watch the Starbucks one.
Die Starbucks. As much as I have liked you, dear corporation, you're just to bloody snobby and "connoisseur" now. Coffee connoisseur my ass. I can't believe that I got this little notebook with my newspaper telling me how to order a coffee. Wet, dry, on legs... can't I just tell you I want extra foam with another shot of expresso? Any why tall, grande, etc? Do you realize that you're missing an accent on the "e"? And do you even realize that Starbucks cashiers don't even know what that means sometimes? On the one at Young and Bloor, some lady in front of me asked for, "A grande insert some coffee name here" and the cashier had to think about it. "A grande... that's a medium."
Anyway, Starbucks doesn't have Latte Tuesdays like Second Cup. And at least Second Cup is Canadian. And Timmie's is a lot cheaper. Except those damn prices went up again. Soon I have to quit coffee just to save money since my mom is determined not to let me get the single cup, by hand coffee maker and is perfect for camping.
Right enough about coffee, it was just really annoying to be downtown and see a coffee bar, Starbucks, Second Cup or some wannabe every block when I had no more money, even if it was Latte Tuesday at Second Cup.
Oooo... downtown for our little tour! So much fun! Thanks Wends! I never knew U of T was so haunted. And I love Knox Library, even when it's just for grad students. I'll pretend to be a child genius. Yes... I'm doing my thesis on... something in psyh. Yupers. Knox library is beautiful with the stained glass... and the rocking chairs by the stained glass. I think I found a new love that will have to replace the couches at U of T. The most amazing thing I noticed about the U of T libraries and every building is that there is heat. Yes, heat. Jessi, Naliah and I were amazed by the fact that people had their jackets off. The new ARC is freezing. And it doesn't have glass floors like the science library, whatever it's called.
Hmm... I should stop before I start to sing along with Brandy and Norah Jones that's playing on the computer.
Quote of the Day:
"And do you realize that the come here everyday to get a guy or girl because you think that love will make you feel connected? And that's if you even meet someone. Huh, huh? Do you even realize that the floors are grimy and dirty? I mean, this whole place is so gross!"

A Jazz Nightclub?! Woo hoo!
Background Music: Roxie from the Chicago soundtrack. Such a great movie. Oh wait, Ninja Tunes just started.
Feeling: Shopped out. And I didn't even buy anything
Today was a happy day because I got to see Dilys and Jo! Yay! Shopping and eating, how can that go wrong? We laughed, gossiped and I brought nothing but a big tub of candy for the locker that Amber and I share, so something else to fit in with the kettle and a sub for tomorrow. But once again, the pig that is my brother ate almost all of it when I left it in my room for five minutes. He also ate all my Pop Tarts, chips and microwave dinners that I got from No Frills from the $1 sale. You owe me about 3 years of food younger brother.
Anyway.. so there's this thing called Kiwanis (I'm not to sure about the spelling) where the wonderful Sir John A. MacDonald band(s) will be performing... for FREE. That's right everyone, there is such a word in Toronto. The only hitch is that it's at 9:00 am at Mac. But come! Support the music program! Because it's looks like some of us will be meeting at my place at 8:00ish to walk to MAC so we can all defend Vanessa against Kent, the... well, I don't know how to describe him. But he's hard to deal with.
Yes... so join us. Hmm... I should hit the books before sleeping tonight.
Ta ta!

Does anyone really read the title?
Background Music: The NBA All Star game and random comments from James, even when he knows that I'm not into basketball
Feeling: Hmm.. good question
Today, I actually went to church for the first time since Christmas. I was greeted with a loud "Oh my gosh! It's Eunice!" It was nice to see people again and listen to Kyu's random off topic sermons. Today's random off topic was how to beat the buffet. The trick is to eat a lot the night before or something. I think the Lord of the Rings off topic theme is over. After church was dinner and a 3 hour nap. I feel so good since I caught up with all my sleep.

Untitled
Music in background: I Want To Love You Madly by Cake
Feeling: There is no food in the house except bagels and I'm starting to get sick of them.
Update: Friday the 13th
The Lit exam was horrible and I was so mad at myself about not studying enough that I left my Burberry scarf behind in the ARC. Excuse me, Sun Microsystems Lecture Hall. I don't even like Burberry that much, but my parents got it for me for Christmas so I'm mad at myself about the scarf too. And to make my parents happy, especially about last night, I got them flowers for Valentine's day.
Oh, and then I got a phone calls from all the kids that I tutor and they all cancelled on me, so I have no money for this week.
It was a horrible day.
Today's Blurb
Took the day off to "study" with some girlfriends and we ended up annoying half of the second floor at the Toronto Ref Library by talking, so we moved to a restaurant where we talked and laughed so hard that Nalah's nose ring fell off into her burger. Such cheesy lines. "But you have a beautiful smile!" overall it was a good day, even if I only got three hours of sleep last night. And now I think I'm either going to hit the books, sleep or watch a video with James.
Oh yes, before I forget Happy (Anti) Valentine's Day! I swear, I still think that this day is more commerialized more then Christmas. People don't even remember that it started off as a religious holiday.
Quote of the Day: - "But you such a beautiful smile!"
- "And you have such beautiful eyes!"
Insert snorts, laughter
- "Oh no you guys! My nose ring fell off!"
More laughter

The Lit exam was horrible and I was so mad at myself about not studying enough that I left my Burberry scarf behind in the ARC. Excuse me, Sun Microsystems Lecture Hall. I don't even like Burberry that much, but my parents got it for me for Christmas so I'm mad at myself about the scarf too. And to make my parents happy, especially about last night, I got them flowers for Valentine's day.
Oh, and then I got a phone calls from all the kids that I tutor and they all cancelled on me, so I have no money for this week.
It was a horrible day.
Today's Blurb
Took the day off to "study" with some girlfriends and we ended up annoying half of the second floor at the Toronto Ref Library by talking, so we moved to a restaurant where we talked and laughed so hard that Nalah's nose ring fell off into her burger. Such cheesy lines. "But you have a beautiful smile!" overall it was a good day, even if I only got three hours of sleep last night. And now I think I'm either going to hit the books, sleep or watch a video with James.
Oh yes, before I forget Happy (Anti) Valentine's Day! I swear, I still think that this day is more commerialized more then Christmas. People don't even remember that it started off as a religious holiday.
Quote of the Day: - "But you such a beautiful smile!"
- "And you have such beautiful eyes!"
Insert snorts, laughter
- "Oh no you guys! My nose ring fell off!"
More laughter

Midterm tomorrow and I haven't studied for it at all.

Background Music: Something dance club-ish that James has on his page that I can't turn off
Feeling: Party! Woo hoo! Wait, mid terms. Grrr, stupid humanity students finishing exams so early.
I feel very full and now very relaxed since the Soc test is over. Now it's a very late night at UTSC tomorrow for English Lit with friends and another person who I don't know, but I call him Riley all the time.
Random Thought: Hmm.. running for life sci rep... and the ARC was warm today for once. It turns out that some bigwig was visiting today.

Background Noise: The library at 9:00 pm. Quiet, but any noise echoes, so I'm typing as quietly as I can.
Feeling: I'm not ready for Soc test/midterm/grading process that is a very large chunk of my mark as I haven't really read the chapters and I lost some of my notes. In my defense, they were notes all the way from November. Of course I lost them. I probably threw them out with my Women Studies notes.
Wasting time so I don't have to stare at my textbook under very bad lightening, or go home to return to said bad lightening since my desklamp broke and the new one I brought sucked and I returned it. (I also needed the cash to go shopping.) Bad lightening annoys me and I can't study when there aren't people around my that are studying. I end off napping on top of my textbook to wake up to the fact that I'll be late for class very soon.
On another completely unrelated topic (This is how my mind works by the way.) the Johnny Dep look-alike, but better looking the the real Johnny Dep was in the library again. This is getting really freaky. What was even more freaky was the fact that I saw him outside the library. He has effectually replaced the guy that looked like my mental image of what Dorian Gray looks like who I saw all the time first semester.
On the other unrelated topic, I have found another Sexy Hotdog for the 2004. Looks like I don't have to retire the nickname Heather. Hope you're not to disappointed. So congrats Jo. Even if the whole visiting you plan is more or less destroyed. There's always the summer, right?

Background Music: Remember to Breathe by Dashboard is ending and... Sheep Go To Heaven by Cake is starting.
Feeling: Don't want to study. It's the weekend, but no...
Suzie, where the hell were you today? Did you get a bit tipsy at the Fashion Show? LOL.
Random Thought: Maybe I should head over to Heather's...

Background Music: Slowdown by Morcheeba
Feeling: In a laughing mood since James and I are bonding over funny videos on the net. "And Australia was like 'WTF?'"
The Johnny Dep look-a-like was across me again while I was studying in the library. This is freaky.
Random Thought: I wonder how I'm going to drag my bags of food to school to my locker via the Better Way
Quote of the Day
I ran out of them. Find your own.

Today's Random Story #1
Music in Background: Comp lab sounds at 5:14 in the afternoon
Feeling: Sleepy and wondering why I can't get sound with my earphones to watch my lecture. Grrr... I shake my fist at you computer.
Haven't studied all day and it's eating away at my mind. Maybe I should hit the library. Hmm... nah, not right now. I feel to comfy in my sweatpants and sweatshirt at school. I wanted to come to school in my pjs today, since it felt like a "I feel like going outside in my jammies" when I woke up, but it was to cold, so the next best thing had to do. I should do this more often.
Today's Random Story
They still haven't fixed the sound system in ARC 223, better known as The ARC, officially known as the Sunlife Microsoft System Lecture Hall. It still sounds like there's crickets in the room. Well, it went well with the bio lecture today since today's lecture was all about animal sex, complete with background music and videos. With the flatworms that live in the sunny tropics, there was your stereotypical Warm Country, Don't You Wish You Were Here video, we learned that they're intersexed and one of them gets to play the male, so they end up poking each other with their "harpoon like" penis. In fact some of them have a double harpoon. It killed everyone laughing. Poor Jackie didn't know what she was missing when she skipped it to study for chem. We also learned that the fruit fly has the largest sperm relative to its body size. The random info that you learn in class. Great convo starters they are.
Okay, I'm going to study.
Random Thought: I feel like taking a bath.
Today's Quote of the Day
There is no quote of the day. Just an announcement that there's an all nighter at school for pysh and if there's time, bio next Saturday during reading week. E-mail/phone if you're interested because organizing food is VERY important. And if you just need support not falling asleep while you study for other subjects (Like philosophy...) you can come too.

Working Out...
Background Music: Loser by Beck
Feeling: Aches and pains
I have finally hit the gym at the AC downtown and I hurt. A lot. And I haven't studied at all. The bikes and stairmasters aren't very textbook friendly so I couldn't muti-task. Thank goodness for people like Myrui who insists on running/jogging/rowing into fitness and smaller love handles. And shopping plans during reading week. Yeesh, people get off our backs. Shopping is the same thing as visiting your bf/gf during the same time. Don't give me that look Wendy, but thanks for the comparison of the Chipmuck Superman.
Random Thought: Body massage machine... and Mouline Rouge is a good movie. No matter what people say. Bastards.

Da Dee Dum...
Background Music: My pysh prof talking
Feeling: If I study anymore, I'll pop
I was forced to watch a video of Chuck Barry giving a concert for sociology. He looked like my prof. If anyone was in that class, the loud random laughing was us.
On another angle, there's isn't enough study space at school. When I finally did find one, the guy across me looked like Johnny Dep. It was very distracting.
Random Thought: "I don't want to close my eyes, I don't want to fall asleep... la la la..." A song stuck in my head. One of the few Areosmith songs that I actually like.

Music in Background: Thin Line by J5
Feeling: LikeIhadtomuchcaffine
Bio lab report wasn't due today. In today's lab, we had to weigh ourselves, and I realized that I gained 15 pounds since the summer. Now I'm looking forward to the gym tomorrow, which I was trying to get out of today. Nailah wouldn't let me.
Random Thought: Exams next week?!!

Bio Lab... and Pizza
A Long While Later...
I'm sick of my lab, I'm sick of staring at data that doesn't make sense when I start to calculate things and I don't want to interpret the results because they scream out "I SCREWED UP THE EXPERIMENT!" and I'm especially sick of staring at this computer screen all day long. So this lab can wait until tomorrow morning because I would have gotten more sleep then tonight. And have talked to Joanne. Come on Joanne, just go over my calculations. You're good at math. I'll help you with lit, I'll buy you coffee/iced cap/timbits...
Think happy thoughts. Well, this lazy, "I don't exercise" kind of girl is finally hitting the gym thanks to the frosh 15. With yoga 3 times a week and my supportive friends, I'm sure I'll finish... what, a lap on the track? Wait, does the school even have a running track? We have about to many tennis courts, but a track? Hmmm..., well, no running for me. Wait, the stair master, my nemesis. Grr.. I'll show you. Sigh, Nailah, can't we just drop by the step classes or something? I'm sure doing the salsa burns a lot of fat/carbs/whatever you're supposed to burn.
Music In Background: None, because I'm in full serious study mode, complete with wearing my pjs
Feeling: Loving the leftovers
Mmmm... leftovers... I have enough food for school to tide me over for a few lunches. I would be in a good mood except this bio lab keeps on biting my ass. I hate calculations. Maybe I should turn msn off.
Oh yes, and here's my pizza recipe that Mike and some other people were asking for, so why not just give it to everyone? So here it is.
Eunice's Pizza Recipe That Requires Beer
(Stolen and Modified From Black and Decker)

Shortening: 1tbsp
Sugar: 1tbsp
Salt: 1 tsp
Whiteflour/all purpose: 2 and 3/4 cups
Yeast: 1 and 1/4 tsp

Directions
1. Add first 6 ingredients to bread making pan
2. sprinke basil/oregano on top
3. Put baking pan into machine and press "dough/pasta"
4. While it's mixing, chop up some veggies, meat and grate some cheese. (I like to put on kimchee or pineapple)
5. Roll out dough onto lightly floured surface
6. It's about now that you preheat the oven to 425 F
7. Grease pans and place dough on pans
8. Top pizza with sauce, cheese and toppings and then top the toppings with more cheese
9. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 425 F or until the cheese is bubbling and the crust is golden
Yields: 1 medium pizza which will be gone in about a hour with 3 people attacking it
For unusual toppings: kimchee, fake crab meat, squid, etc.
Happy baking!

If one pound of Valentine's candy can be brought for $1.99 at Wal-Mart, then how much will it cost after Valentine's Day? And how much happiness can the candy give to people if I just randomly hand them out to people?
