I should be looking forward to next week, but I'm not. With the amount of work I've on my plate, I don't think anyone can look forward to it. Usually I would want to write down all the stuff that I need to do, but I just can't bring myself to think about them right now. Yes, this is me; this is usually how I deal with my problems; avoiding them and running away from them until I can't anymore. I'm also a bit out of it lately, or perhaps just the last two days.
Shawn is finally back from his two-week trip to Toronto. So we went out for dinner Friday night. We went to this totally overpriced Italian restaurant in
Little Italy, and he told me all about his trip - the good, and the bad. Afterward I went to the
Albertson's nearby with
Chris 'cause they were having a closing down sale. Everything was 10-50% off. Anyway, I spent more than $80 on grocery and some
Crest® Whitestrips®. The last time I used those was like 2 years ago. It was time for me to get some again especially since they were 25% off. After we dropped off Chris' grocery at his place, we came back to my place and watched half of
Formula 17. I said half 'cause Chris fell asleep halfway through the movie. But I was content nonetheless. I was so blue the whole day and craving for watching a cheesy romanic comedy with someone all day. I even downloaded
Brokeback Mountain waiting for Kiet to come back from work so we could watch it, but having him told me that he was going on a date with someone to watch the same movie just didn't help my mood at all. So I was grateful that Chris was able to spend sometime with me.
Today the blue lingered. Having so much work to worry about obviously didn't help. Well, I basically done nothing productive but watched
Oliver Twist, which is a great movie by the way.
UCSD LGBTQIA's 11th annual drag show
Divas in Denial XI was tonight. It was way better than last year's in my opinion. The only thing was it was suppose to be our pre-rush event for
the frat but not that many brothers were there. So, that was that. I really need to get out of my blue soon 'cause this is really bugging me. I've so much I need to do and yet I don't find the motivation to do them because of my mood.
I've 2 midterm papers for
Sociology of Sexuality and a 20-page draft for my
Upper-division Practicum Writing course due this Thursday, and yet I constantly find myself doing anything else but them. Yesterday afternoon I managed to spent more than 3 hours approving 1500+ pending members on
Open-Mind, getting it back to a manageable state. In case you haven't noticed yet, I also updated my picture on the left. The picture is now randomly generated everytime the page is loaded. I just can't get enough of myself I guess. :) Then I stayed up really late working on
a T-shirt design for this year's Kiss-In, but it is an emergency 'cause they need to turn in the design by Wednesday in order to have the shirts made before Valentine's Day.
Today at work, I finally got a blog set-up for the newsletter. Seriously, I hate ASP so much I wish the guy who invented ASP was never born. The blog uses Access for its database and there was this connection error that took me forever to figure out. Well, at least I got it to work, so now I just need to make a layout for it and it should be good to go. After work, I pretty much spent the rest of the day catching up with sleep. Then tonight we had our first
rush event of this semester. We had a great turn out and what not. But I think I'm wearing myself thin.
