Busy

Hey!

Second day of work today. Amazing how busy things get in such a short amount of time. Had my Latin midterm of Friday... think I did ok, except I said "servitude" instead of "servitute". The Latin has the 'T'. English has SO many words from Latin... for example, I would have no idea what inimicial mean, until I learned that inimicus was Latin for enemy.

Gained a pound last week. Rrrr! Losing pound and a half this week. I will.

Better go get ready for work!

Wednesday

Here I am, in the Cage at the University. Big glass building with roof 5 stories above my head. Concrete supports... not too pretty. I'm just waiting until 9:00am, so I can sign up for classes for next semester.

I'll be taking Principles of Communication, then Statistics with Applications, then History of the Theater I. I wanted to take Astronomy: Stars and Galaxies but there is something whacked going on with that, and I'll probably end up taking Spanish *gag*. I'd much rather learn Chinese or Japanese, but they conflict with my Theater class and are too late at night, respectively.

Right now I'm taking Principles of Acting, Latin II, Plants and Civilization, Introduction to Urban Studies, and Yoga I. Intro to Urban Studies is so easy! It's all online, and the ONLY way you could walk away with less than 100% is getting terrible grades on the 1-3 page papers or flunk the midterm (the question for which come from a multiple-choice quiz bank you can practice with up until the test). SO easy. Pretty much all my classes are... I do have a Latin midterm on Friday, though. *grimaces* I've been better prepared for other tests, that's all I can say.

I'm really looking forward to tomorrow, my first day of work. I'm supposed to get there at 10:45 am, but I'll probably aim for 10:30, leave at 10:15, and arrive 30 minutes early. Well, there are worse things, wouldn't you say? Hah, when Doris (my manager) hired me, I totally forgot to ask about wages. It's probably 4.50 an hour or something! :-P

Off to snatch up those classes!

Welcome!

Hello everyone!

I've never tried blogging before. This should prove to be an interesting experience.

As for the title of this blog: Chamma. Chamma is currently the title of the book I am currently writing... 300-some pages long right now. Double spaced! I'm not a complete loony. Me and mom are working on it. I love my mom. I wish all people could have moms like my mom is. :-P Well, perhaps minus a few things... she does worry so. :-( Anyway, back to the story. As you can tell, the story is very focused, very clear... coherent.... what? Oh, right. I churn out the raw material. She makes it good. As I often tell people: "I do quantity. She does quality."

Right now I'm a student at *cough*. Security issues, you know? It's a public university, not too pricy, maybe could have aimed higher, but I got a scholarship so I'm staying there. I will also add that it is next to a body of water. :-P

But the big news of today is that I got a job at *cough* 'a cute tea shop' as a server! They do lunch and stuff. It's going to be wonderful. I just know it.

It's 10:22 PM here right now. I'm in my pajamas, and I should be sleeping. I have to sign up for next semester's classes tomorrow!

Goodness. What I didn't expect was to have so much to say.
