you know, summer school isn't as bad as i thought it would be. i remember having dreadful thoughts of taking 39c over the summer during the school year. however, the workload isn't as bad as it normally would be. i guess alot of it also has to do with the fact that i'm only taking one course so i don't have to worry about anything else. even my writing teacher isn't as bad as my first impression of him thought to be. he has a very unique sense of humor that makes everyone laugh their laughs that they're trying to keep in. i don't know what is is...gay humor? but whatever it is, that bastard is a funny man. he actually does a pretty good job with teaching us writing too. today, he taught us how to write a good argumentative paper while playing his guitar. yeah, i can't believe it...the stuff actually made sense. but nevertheless, there IS work to be done! i had my first working draft due for my first paper today. last night, i started at 7 and finished at 4 in the morning. ugh, 9 hours on minimum wage. then of course i had to wake up at 7:20 to get ready for work.

but you know what's really cool about my job? our director, monica, actually buys us lunch every time we work! she just asks everyone what they want and she sends one of us out to go get it. how cool is that? i have a pretty chill job. i get good hours. i get good pay. i get free food. what more can a college student ask for? (more money fa sho!). but really, i'm content with my summer right now. i feel like i'm being pretty productive with summer school and work, and i still make time to have fun.

one thing i'm learning this summer is that you really need to make an effort to hang out with friends. i think everyone just kinda sits around at home and waits for people to call them with good ideas to hang out. but if everyone has this mentality, no one is going to hang out and everyone is going to be bored and sad. so i think it's important to really take the initiative to call people up and see if they wanna hang out. if not, too bad. if they're down, you now have something to do! i learned this through observation and personal experience...in other words, the hard way. yes, even a popular guy like me goes through periods of loneliness. haha. i called myself popular.

i watched T3 today with simone, simon, and dykas. i didn't think it was too bad. the action and dialogue was no where close to T2, but i was fairly impressed with the way they concluded the Terminator trilogy. and yeah, Kristanna Loken is hot.
