Music: Flogging Molly - Rebels of the Sacred Heart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, I've got a lot to go through today, so everyone bear with me and it will all be over soon.

You'd think I'd be in a worse mood today. Not only did I get a parking ticket, but I walked back from my Italian class (where I got a 78 on my quiz) in the rain. But I payed the parking ticket right away, and since I took that quiz I've been working much harder on the Italian stuff. And I'm finally starting to dry out. I guess it's a good feeling of having all of my work for today done, and that my Spanish class is going to go a lot better.

For one thing, I went to talk to Prof. Fischer yesterday. Turns out she's actually really nice. I was in there for an hour going over my paper. I didn't want to leave until I was sure I figured out everything. Once she told me what some of the markings meant, the corrections made a bunch more sense. I learned some new frases too. I figured out that I have this tendency to write my essays very tentatively. I don't like to say anything is deffinite since most of the papers I write are on theoretical issues. I'll have to break out of that habit for this class, but I did pick up some good frases to use when writing that way.

I'll also be able to kick some ass during the class because of today's topic. We're going to be talking about King Juan Carlos I and Francisco Franco. Oh wait...who did a report on Franco in Fascism Class last semester?...oh right...It was ME! Hahahahahahahaha!

And one last thing....now don't laugh.....but I think I may want to get a Mac..........

DON'T JUDGE ME!!

Seriously, though. I've been having so many problems with this laptop lately. It's been crashing non-stop. Macs, I know for a fact, hardly ever crash. And I need to be honest with myself: What do I use my computer for? Word processing and the internet. I'm a console gamer, so it's not like I'd need to play any games on the computer. Hell. I can't even play anything on this piece of crap. The graphics card may have come out of a cereal box. I know my printer works with a Mac. And my iPod...well...Duh. I hated the old iMacs in the computer labs here, but those things were so fried from students messing with them that they weren't a good litmus test. I spent a grand total of 30 seconds on on of the brand new flat-screen iMacs with OS X and I figured out how to use it pretty well during that time. I also used Bree's new iMac to email my father about my hatered of this laptop. The keyboard wasn't very good, but I think I'd get used to it, like I got used to the laptop keyboard. So yeah. This is deffinitely something to ponder...
