  • well quentin, you did it again. despite moderate to low interest in both of these movies, you got me to see them. both in the theater too! altho it maybe it was i who used you for reasons of procrastination. i call it even. except with dianne, i owe her money. ...

    JET: i am very entertained by the adorable pamphlet that came with my placement letter. as if all i need to know is right there. and lots of colors and pictures. woo hoo. but even that cannot challenge my ever-shrinking attention span. learning the culture and language is such a daunting task, that i am just pushing it back and back and back. in the big picture, two months of cramming might help a little, but the outcome will be the same - hopefully success! so i continue the NOT-studying. either way, it's gonna be rough for a time. we'll deal.

    i can't stop biting my nails even tho sometimes the consequences are fingers that make you see stars when you brush them lightly against something accidentally. the cuts make your fingers, a tiiiiny bit sensitive. i had one like that for the past few days, but it gave me a chance to wear all those sweet sanrio band aids that dianne gave me. so it was worth it!!! i am going to have so many toys and crap when im in japan. its going to be great.

    damn school. damn the fork handle i have to build. arg. damn the burly men in the machine shop who overestimate my intelligence. i barely know where i am in the engineering building itself, let alone knowing my way around the machine shop. they are nice, but they have a tough chewy outer layer riddled with bad jokes and metal filings. if possible, i would want everyone to talk to me like i was about 5. not condescending per se, but assume i know nothing, so that i wont overlook any crucial detail that might seem obvious to you. in fact, forget 5 year olds, just pretend i am an alien. cool.

  • Dayam, I'm waiting for my placement!!  Sometimes I don't think they even got my acceptance letter.  Hey if you like "The Swan,"  you gotta check out the new WB Superstar show which pits the worst singers in America against each other, but the huge joke is that they don't know that it's not a serious competition.  Why does everyone seem to be getting their placements except me??  I'm taking Japanese class right now-it's tough.  At least try to learn how to read a little so you can use the public transportation.  Later and thanks for checking out my rants.  Maybe we'll see each other at orientation.
