I like it. ^_^ It's really pretty Drift!
Picked up my college ID today. YAY!
Picked up my books today! YAY! (Although one was out of stock, and now I hafta go hunting for it)
Saw an old friend while picking up my ID. YAY!
******
I can't wait. I move out in exactly 12 days! It's amazing how quickly this summer has really come and gone. It makes me happy though. I'm ready to start my classes. :)
I could do without the heat though. Arkansas summers kill me. High humidity and high temperatures. Was like 110 today. >_< Walking outside was like adding several layers of gravity onto your body. BAH! I'm ready for winter! I LIKE COLD!
*********
School supply shopping today was fun. I got to actually pick out stuff for myself for once (my parents used to pay for all the crappy-level stuff, but I payed for it this time and actually got some really nice stuff).
I also started the novel my World Lit professor told us to buy (might as well read it and get it out of the way). It's kind of strange for my tates (and really opposses my views as a Christian), but I like it for some reason. It's called Disgrace by J. M. Coetzee, and it's ok I guess. I'll probably finish it tomorrow.
The Good: Got lotsa fun college stuff today.
The Bad: My mom got sick cuz of the heat.
The Ugly: It's way too hot. >:( -
B is for Breaking Dawn

Seriously... I LOVED IT! Best book I've had the honor of reading. The author made the perfect ending... Well, for me at least. The legions of fangirls are all pissy, but I choose to ignore them, because they are just sad people. :P
Things were strange today. I felt a strange sense of anger, irritation, peace, serenity, love, kindness and forgiveness. Things just seem to be speeding up for once! College is coming closer and closer, and I move out ONE WEEK from this Saturday. I can't believe it. I'm soon going to have the freedom that I've been dying to enjoy for roughly the last four years.
Editing wise? Goodness, I have about 1/2 of an AMV done, but I'm just too lazy and not inspired to actually work on it. I have about 1/4 of my WAFV track done, but I'm also feeling lacking of inspiration on that one too. But I'll get the WAFV done, not sure on the other one.
Now, for my new feature of my journal... The good/bad/ugly section of my daily antics!
The Good: I spend a day looking at fun art on Deviantart, beat Super Mario World & got Occorina of Time on the Wii Virtual Console, and beat my high scores on Rock Band.
The Bad: My family irritated me today, my aunt/uncle came down and irritated me more.
The Ugly: My friend Ryan called me and spend about 30 minutes on the phone telling me how he doesn't like his date he had today because she wouldn't kiss/sleep with him on the first date! I wanted to punch him out for his horrible attitude and rudeness, but I spared him, because it wouldn't be a Christialy thing to do. :( -
C is for Complain

It's all I ever seem to do in my journals.
So I'm going to praise a few things for once!
I love my job and my bosses. I get to work from home about 3/4 of the time, and the other 1/4 is spent around good people I really enjoy being around (despite their lack of technological knowledge and habit to irritate me with it).
I loved all the books I've read this summer. I set a goal to read 500 books before I got into college, but I've only read 243. >:( Oh well... Anyway, I loved the Twilight Series (Breaking Dawn was the best ending to a series that any avid book fan could hope for), I loved all of the Melody Carlson novel's I've read, and most of the other classic literature I've been sprucing myself up on.
I love having God in my life. He makes everything so simple.
As much as they irritate and disgust me, I love my parents. I couldn't ask for better people even if I wanted. Sure, they are the epitome of the Christian Bigot, and they spoil my sister like a little brat, but who cares... They raised me and took care of me, despite me being a bastard child (for once the name is actually meant in its actual pretense).
I love my Grandparents. They are the kindest, most loyal people I know. If it wasn't for them, I'm sure my mother would have aborted me. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be the person I am today. If it wasn't for them, I would never know what was right and what was wrong in this world. If it wasn't for them... I don't think I'd be alive today. :)
I love my lifestyle. Sure, I'm not what you would call rich, but we're pretty well off, and my job pays well.
I love my college. It's the most gorgeous campus I could ever hope for, and some of my favorite people are attending there. :)
I love my classes I'm going to be taking.
Most importantly... I'm beginning to love myself. I've been reading over these past journal entires and realized how miserable I was without God in my life. He's always been there, waiting for me to pick myself back up and surrender it all to Him. I see myself differently these days. Not just as bastard child... Not just as a snotty-know-it-all. Not as the fat kid. I see myself as me. And that's the best thing I could possibly hope for.
Well, that, and me having my room back, since sleeping on the couch has been a
real pain in the neck (litterally!) LOL

Ok, it's official. My mother has officially gone off the deep end. Not on me (thank goodness), but on my step-dad. We're down to one vehicle right now (hers), and she blames it fully on my step-dad. Why? You see, our family vehicle (the one he drives normally) got a flat tire, and we had to special order one (its a weird tire). It hasn't come in yet, so he's having to borrow her car to get to work (where he brings in the most income in our family). Well, today she walked into our house griping and complaining about how he cut her shopping trip short today, and how he's "ruined" her birthday (which was celebrated two weeks ago). Seriously, I love my mother (especially since she could have simply aborted me when she was sixteen), but sometimes I think I like my step-dad about twenty zillion times better. For one, because he's so laid back and TAKES the abuse, and for two he's the nicest guy in the world. Even right now, she's giving him the cold treatment as I'm typing this in the living room.
Have I mentioned I'm really ready to move out? Well, just in case I haven't, I'm ready. Really ready. I'm talking seriously ready here. >:( Mostly due to my mother and her insanity, but also due to the fact that I'm ready for classes to start.
Let's move on, shall we?
Actually, I really don't have much to talk about. My mother is the bane of my existence right now, and my desire to move out is the only thing keeping me sane right now. :(
I think I'm going to go buy Final Fantasy IV, because Final Fantasy Tactics A2 sucks a big one. Where's another Persona 3 when you need one?
