The annoying: These essays I have to write for graduation.... going to be the bane of my existence until December 2nd.

Soooooooo close, though!  I'll be your cheerleader in the meantime!  *Waves pom-poms* 

Go Kristen!  Go Kristen!  You can do it!  You can do it!

   Thank you I knew there was a reason I liked you Hailey!

THE EXCITING: This time next Saturday I will be a college graduate

Congratulations, Kristen!

[writerlove]

Thanks everyone I have a Bachelor of Arts in Print Journalism with a minor in History. I don't actually get my degree until January sometime. All they handed me at the ceremony was a scroll welcoming me to the alumni association. Ah well. My hard work is done. Now on to the next adventure.... finding me a job.

The annoying: Headache and feeling icky
The weird: Sitting in silence for the first time in several weeks. House all to myself.

Gratz Kristen!

The VERY GOOD: Just turned in my compiler, finally. A few little things that don't work that I ran out of time for, but got the big ones I think. 
The BAD: Now need to go finish studying for my networking final
The GOOD: Two more exams and I'm done for the semester

[Rosella]

The GOOD: Just got a performance review from my computer organization professor. Favorite quote: "Solving problems in a new language in a short time seems to be one of your strengths. In terms of career prospects, you might find your talents serve you best in the industrial sectors of computer science, where a great deal of quick and logical reasoning is needed." I feel intelligent.
The GOOD: Projects are done, and all I have left is my French final, and I've already written the oral for it.
The GOOD: Chemistry is over!
The BAD: Some of my friends are really having a hard time.
The GOOD: Winter break soon.

[Delling]

Congratz, Kristen!!

THE ANNOYING: Snow.  Oh, the snow.  Everywhere.  And really, it's not just the snow that has me frustrated, it's the blasted ICE everywhere  Seriously, I haven't left the house in five days!  The one day I tried driving, I almost peed my pants and turned right back around and went home.  Cabin fever is settling in BIG time and I'm soooooooooooo bored.  I feel like I need a Captain's Log:

Day 5
Supplies are scarce here in the Dundas household and we have resorted to opening the remaining English muffins and Frosted Flakes in the pantry.  Butter is a luxury in these parts, so rationing has become necessary.  Favorite pasttimes no longer bring the joy they once did; Nintendo has become tedious, scrapbooking dull, and all the books on the shelves have been flipped through until they are brittle.  We are still searching for signs of life in the outside world, but no car has passed by in hours.  We are beginning to lose hope that this winter blast will be the end of us.

the good: almost weekend
the good: last weekend was super
I went to an amusementpark here in the netherland (Efteling). On 2 of the rides I got stuck and all people were evacuated.
The fist time wasn't so extreme. We were evacuated from a room. The second one was in the middle of a ride in a boat.
The ride was the fatamorgana . 

[Haids1987]

THE ATROCIOUS: Not only was I buried in snow for five days, the NEXT five days brought me...a power outage!! Goody goody gumdrops!! 

THE AMAZING: The Puget Sound Energy boys brought it back to me!! I was so excited to see them; they were traipsing up and down my street gazing at powerlines and I flung myself out the window and yelled, "I LOVE YOU GUYS!" and blew them kisses. I think that made them work harder!

[snabbott]

Glad you're all right!

THE AMAZING: The Puget Sound Energy boys

Somehow, when I first read this, I though you were referring to a Boy Band.

[Haids1987]

  They might as well be!  Girls are swooning and screaming when they see them, it's kinda the same thing!

[tessspoon]

The BAD: My car won't start
The GOOD: We have Jacob's so we're not carless (mine hasn't even been used in 2-3 months, only found out it won't start because I tried to take it to get inspected today)
The BAD: Have to start doing research stuff tomorrow
The GOOD: Liking my Graphics class so far

[Haids1987]

The BAD: My car won't start

Cars suck.  I'd so much rather deal with a sick computer than a sick car.  Hope yours gets better soon!
