The spiral of life!

Just some thoughts about life, school, and whatever else comes to mind :)

The new graduate newspaper launched this week and we got great feedback. People really seem to like it! And my review got a great review :) and so did my anonymous rant!
I used to aspire to be a writer and a poet once, but then my high school teacher informed me that I wrote like a mathematician. I somehow sensed it was not a compliment, she said I followed a formula when I wrote and lacked style. After that I hid all my books of poetry and stopped typing up my short stories I had written. Maybe it is time to rediscover my work. Actually, one of my poems got published last year, so I have gotten a little more confident in my poetry. The only problem with having it published is that my parents insist on showing it to all our family and friends when they stop by. I tried to hide the book but my mother always seems to find it and she forbids me from removing it from the house.
I think that is my main fear of publication is that others will read it. On the other hand I want to get my stuff published so I can reassure myself it is not absolute crap.
"A paradox A paradox A Most Ingenious Paradox"
I am a complex system of paradoxes it seems.

I am one step closer to handing in my group project and regaining my sanity.
I am usually a people person but my group makes me hate people sometimes.
As of tomorrow, after handing in the project, I will be free, no more annoying
calls or harassement. I will be free. Well free to work on all my other crap.

Aside from that today has been very frustrating. I really wanted to sleep in today but I told myself I had to come in and do work before my class. Well, my class was cancelled and I could have slept in and done work at home. grrrr. And I had planned to ask the prof some questions today, it is too close to the final to be canceling classes, but then again this might just mean less new material.

Okay, I had better go and attempt to do some work now.

Okay, so I am slowly getting used to HTML and rediscovering Java script.
I always thought making a webpage would be super easy and it would just look pretty like everyone elses.
Anyway, I have spent most of the evening making my webpage prettier and adding some junk to it. On the side i did do some school work. I can't believe my first final is in less than 2 weeks, its wierd that i am not freaking out yet. Well, I guess the bottom line is there is no point freaking out... yet! Anyway, I have a great study buddy so I am not too worried. I just need to stay motivated, and I will be okay. Well, I have nothing else exciting to say, so I better jst say goodnight :)
