Forgot my phone & other thoughts

Today was good.
I ate breakfast, went to class ontime, BUT! I forgot my phone. I was thinking I would call someone and see if they could meet up for dinner, but... I forgot my phone, so oh well I kinda got what I wanted, to go to the U and grab a slice of pizza like I did yesterday and sit by myself in the dark eating.

I forgot my phone today and I have been meaning to call this person to find out about the room availability she had posted. I need a place to live next year!

I really, really have to gear up on this W class paper. I want to go to some events this weekend. There's the DDR Conference, I'd like to attend a couple of the workshops, also I'd like to go to the first workshop open to the public by the Pi Delta Psi guys on Saturday. On Friday, I want to go to some of the DDR events and go to Karate class to make up a class as well as to brush up on some techniques especially those that I haven't learned. I hear my friend is going to a party, idk if she's gonna invite me to go, but I should stay in a get this darn paper done! And then if I want to go the DDR Conference on Saturday, I ought to sleep at a reasonable hour to get up for the conference in the morning, go to the morning conference, grab lunch, sneak off to the Pi Delta Psi Conference that's in the ballroom, then back to the conference???

Here is the description of the Convention 8 workshop I want to go to:

And then Saturday night, my friends want to go out to Up or On the Rocks in Hartford. Boy oh boy. Michelle is up for it, so... that kinda means I should go to, besides it's a hella good time dancin' when Michelle there with me, she's my long time good clubbin' AND dancin' buddy.

Technology continues to fail me. Still, my speakers don't work. @@ I guess that's good anyway. I've been bringing my laptop to the library now. I just want to listen to one song though, dang, as a study break, ya knoooo!

There are all sorts of influences we have on ours lives. It's a matter of sorting them out, bad, good, in between, or maybe they are all land good or bad and it's okay to let the bad influence you, too because we are a balance right - yin and yang, light and dark. We are not all good or all evil.

Alright enough words for today. I'm going to listen to the Endocrine lecture that I was falling asleep during. It turned out to be a nice day out today. Very warm. People say it is tennis weather and my friend next to me was making plans with a couple people in my class to go play tennis. I looked on in that planning kinda surprised this other girl was going with her... idk she looks means sometimes... I'm being stupid, judgmental.

Oh, another thing man I'm like Holden Caulfield, I am judgemental, not all the time, but it's when I don't interact with people. I totally over analyze and judge the situation and people anwering the what if's and questions I might ask of them for them in my head. Silly silly. Quite silly. I still have to go read the rest of The Catcher and the Rye SparkNotes. (I read the book and then I was like I don't get it... but that was because I expected that I would learn something from it, but I had read it purely for entertainment rather than understanding which is what I really sought.)

My friend moved to sit somewhere else like a couple days ago. May be she doesn't like the guy the sits next to her. I don't really like him. He always says things under his breath, like the answer - he should just say it out loud for everyone to hear, it'd help the class move along. He also laughs kinda a lot when I don't think he should or appropriate, but sometimes people laugh when they don't know what to do... but don't think it's his case any how, but that is something I have done a lot before with pole vaulting, so silly, and I probably do nowadays also, but dunno when.

Oh another thing, I want to change everybody. I want to control everybody. But I can't. I can only control myself. And I don't think they are good enough. But people have their own merits. They all have some wisdom to offer, I should discount them. I feel other people discount me and minimize me, and so then I do the same as a convuluted way to get back, and I've done the same like when people give me a condescending attitude (hmm actually this is pretty much the same) - now that is childish. Time to stop the bad karma. Take it, move on.

Ah, alright I said I was gonna get to doing my work. I am now. The room/earth feels like it was shifting back while I was typing, must be because of my rocket ship laptop taking off!
