Wow. I am so cool (okay, well fine, cool in my way, okay?). So far I've managed to do my laundry -- without shrinking or ruining anything -- and I've just now finished cleaning the bathrooms and the floors and the counters and tables. *phew!*

So I guess I'm going to have to have some sort of career or job in the future, because this housewife thing is tough. :P Guess that means I should get back to work now :) ...

I Still Like This Poster...

It's funny, though, because I like the poster and I didn't even really like the movie Trainspotting that much when I saw it a long time ago. Although I think I'd like it better now if I watched it again...

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.

Well, if you can't guess by now, I just got back from watching Macbeth at Hart House Theatre and it was really quite enjoyable. They had a head on a stick and everything. Very Heart Of Darkness-y. :)



Anyway hmm, I guess it's kinda late, huh? Guess I'll just be off, then. I'll leave you all with today's excerpt of the day:

---

Cut to the Summers house. Cordelia kneels over Giles and gives him a sharp slap to the face.

Cordelia: Wake up!

She slaps him two more times, and he begins to come out of it. She is about to slap again, when he suddenly reaches up and blocks her swing.

Giles: Cordelia?

Cordelia: Took you long enough to wake up. My hand hurts.

Giles: Pity. (rubs his temples) Oh...Why are you here?

Cordelia: Things are way out of control, Giles. First the thing at school, and then my mom confiscates all of my black clothes and scented candles. (Giles sits up) I came over here to tell Buffy to stop this craziness and found you all unconscious...again. How many times have you been knocked out, anyway? (Giles finds his glasses) I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

Giles: (puts his glasses on) Wake up in a...Oh, never mind. (struggles to his feet) We need to save Buffy from Hansel and Gretel.

He heads for the front door. Cordelia follows him out.

Cordelia: Now, let's be clear. The brain damage happened *before* I hit you.

That's all, folks. :)

Apparitions...

I just finished another soul-sucking, mind-searing, dull-as-hell (though I doubt Hell is really all that boring...) 2-hour Calc lecture. My prof. is just so...boring. I think I'm really starting to appreciate Ms. Ziniuk now . . .

Okay, now about the title of this entry. I think I'm going mad. I keep seeing the faces of people I know as I'm walking to and from classes every day, only they're not really the people I know and are actually just people that slightly ressemble them. I'm losing my mind or something, I think. Today, for example, there was a girl who was sort of tall and lanky (though not even that much, really) and for a split-second I thought she was Susan. But I knew it wasn't, really; her walk was different. I even think I see people that I never even talked to in high school -- people I didn't know, but knew the faces and names of. Odd. Very odd. If anyone else here thinks I'm a prime candidate for their psych project or something, then by all means psychoanalyse me if you want to. I'm sure there'd be some rather interesting, quirky results...

Well, just got back. I am probably so behind in my work now, though...notice I said "probably"...I don't even know what I have to do...but whatever. *shrugs*

Question: Why are there only hopeless romantics? Aren't there any hopeful ones?

In 7 minutes I'm leaving for registration (and related hoopla such as speakers and refreshments) for FiestaFever2002, the Commerce orientation weekend trip that I'm going on. We're leaving at 7:00 am tomorrow morning so guess who should go to sleep early but probably won't anyway? And oh, I have to pack stuff too...

Anyway...I hope it's fun. I don't know if any of the few people I've met are even going on this trip, not that it makes much difference since I don't know them well anyway. Hope everyone has a good weekend and I'll be back on Sunday at 5:00 pm...

Okay, I was just in the TV common room from 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm and no one came in at all...you can all probably guess what I was watching...it was on the Space channel...(and really, if you can't guess, you probably don't talk to me often enough ;) ) and no others came in to watch it...so I must be an extinct race/people or something, at least in this area...

I know other fans exist around the world (the Internet fan base is huge and rabid) but in this particular location I seem to be the only one left. Well, everyone missed out...it was one of those really good episodes tonight... ;)

And you can all make fun of my addiction as much as you want. :) It won't make me stop watching -- actually I probably couldn't stop if I tried to, as that is the nature of such an addiction....but anyway...

This entry sounds a little abstract and spacey to me and I'm the one who wrote it, so I apologise in advance if I'm not making much sense. All right. Off to do homework I go....at least theoretically, in any case...

I just had the most mind-numbing two hours of Calculus in my life. Dear Lord.

Since I left the lecture hall I've been in some sort of daze, only half-seeing everything around me... No, I'm serious. It was just...boring...and some of it was over my head...and some of it was stuff I knew (so one could say that some of it was under my head) and it was just....mind-numbing. I had trouble locating the light-switch in my washroom a minute ago. Gaah.

I remember I sort of maybe enjoyed Calculus in OAC...now I'm starting to forget why...
Guess I'll see how the rest of the year goes....wish me luck.

I was at my house for dinner today because after my last class ended at 3:00 pm, my mom picked me up to take me to work at Kumon (okay, it's not like I said "Mom, come pick me up. Pllllllleeeease?" She volunteered b/c now that me and my bro are gone, she says, she's got a lot more time on her hands...).

I'm telling ya...once I walked in through that door and smelled my mom's food cooking and saw everything that is familiar to me, and once I remembered that I was once again standing in my favorite place to be (home)...I didn't want to ever leave again. Ever.

But you know, that's not to say that it isn't nice sometimes to not have my parents around all the time...it's kind of great (and kind of big, now that I see it for myself and how much work goes into maintaining a place and a person) to take care of myself a bit more than I'm used to, and it's not really that bad, mostly...

Today I had 2 different English classes and Economics (yay opportunity cost!). In Effective Writing class we had to write an informal, in-class essay as a writing assessment so that the prof. could see "who should be in [the] class and who should not"...which I loosely translated later (when I was telling my mom about it) to: "to weed out the losers who aren't good enough *evil laughter*..." But no. Forget that. I'm just strange, and I know it. :) The prof. seems pretty nice so far. Which is good, because she's teaching both of my English classes...

The English classes are pretty small. About 35 students each. The Economics class was huge. Filled an auditorium that had a main seating area and 2 balconies. We actually took a note in our first class, which surprised me (again...yay opportunity cost!).

Anyway. My first class tomorrow is at 12:00 pm so it shouldn't be too terrible. Just 2 hours of Calculus and then 3 hours of Intro to Commerce...sounds like a blast...if anything interesting happens I'll let you know. :)

Why is it that I have more online Stuff than anyone else I know (i.e., a website, a diary, a blog, etc. etc.) but I still update everything more often than they all do?

Either I use the Internet too often or they just don't use it enough. Or maybe I'm more dedicated. Or maybe they just have more varied social lives. :)

I don't know. It'll probably be at least a couple days before anyone is unbusy enough to read or comment on this anyway, but I hope everyone's doing well, wherever you all are...

Well.
I just got access to the Internet today so I'm back online and it feels good. :)

I still miss everyone like hell though because even though I'm still in the same city...everyone else is gone or leaving. But I'm glad I've got people I care so much about and I'm glad I'm close to my parents (but not too close). So far it's been kind of weird but I'm sure everything will get more or less weird once classes (yee gads!!) start next week.

*shrugs* I don't know. Frosh week has been okay, but no one's really been blown away by it, per se, but it's fine and I've met some nice enough people. I don't know. I think when classes start I'll be able to meet some more people in my faculty...

I have not yet accepted the weirdness, but I was so scared to come here and now it's not that bad. I still would rather be at home and having a summer break, though. I miss the summer. I miss everything.
