Music: Beastie Boys - Intergalactic

My moods are completely out of whack right now, so this entry is going to go from pissy to normal in two paragraphs. Here we go.
I'm not going to Human Impact. I'm just not. It puts me in a terrible mood and I'm already kind of edgy today, so really I think it's for the best for everyone I know if I don't go. Not that we ever do anything. We look at slides and then he decides he's taught us something, gives us tests that make no sense, then does a shitty job grading them. So I'm not going. Fuck that. I have better things to do with my time. Like upload more songs to my iPod. Well that's not totally true. I'll be working on my Fransisco Franko presentation at some point.
Next up, and open letter to the Fucker Who Orders Scrambled Eggs At The Takeout Breakfast Counter,
Dude...come on! It's just dumb, man! All you're doing is holding up the already massive line by specifying that you want your egg scrambled as oppossed to...of wait...SCRAMBLED! The way they make the eggs for the breakfast sandwich is is that they just crack and egg on the griddle. When they do that, the yolk breaks and basically, the egg gets scrambled. The only real difference is that it is qucker to leave the egg-thing in a pattie-like form than to have them checking your damned eggs constantly to make sure they haven't gone in to one solid lump. This takes away from their taking orders and making the sandwiches that EVERYONE ELSE IS ORDERING. And so help me God, if you ever make them look for shredded cheddar cheese to put in you eggs again I will pelt you with oranges. And it's not just me, man. I really thought the guy behind me was going to kill you today. He was apparantly late for class now that your scrambled eggs held up the assembly line. So please, guy, just go to the caf. The eggs are better there anyway.
I feel a lot better now. It's amazing what a little venting and a Milky Way Midnight bar can do for one's mood :)
I got all my classes. Next semester I'll be taking Theories of International Relations, International Law, Goya and his Times, and Italian 101. I am so happy to be taking Italian. I've wanted to do that since I got here. I'm thinking of that as my treat for not trying to hang myself after a semester of Human Impact. I also applied for a job today at the campus coffee shop. I think they might actually hire me, too! I go in there for my morning coffee every day and I get along very well with Shirley, the lady who runs the place. When I handed in my application today she said she'd give it right to the lady in charge of hiring when she came in today. So here's hoping!
I've wanted a job for a while, now. The desire is especially strong right now because my soul now cries out for FFXI. They have a version of it for the PS2, so I won't have to deal with my weakling laptop. It just sounds like so much fun, but it's *expensive!* I'm not going to spend my parents money on something like this, but using my own paycheck seems fine. That and disposable income is just generally happy.
I'm now gonna go take some happy-pills
