Rose: I really love college.
Rose: I really love being an art major. Rose: I really love living with my boyfriend. Rose: I really love my family. Thorn: It's hard to enjoy any of these things when I'm broke. -------------------- Her dignity shone so bright like a light on a hill and she burned for me, no other man came near her flame.

Thorn: Grounded for breaking a curfew I didn't know I had.
Rose: Friday night was awesome. Rose: Saturday was some much needed sleep. Rose: Pretty chill homework day. Thorn: Eugh, it all starts over tomorrow. -------------------- Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and for life - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way for them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget God. The stars died so that you could be here today. ~Lawrence Krauss

Rose: My family is gone.
Thorn: They were here for hours and hours while I was trying to get my schoolwork done. Thorn: When they left (finally) they said, "Are you still working?" I find that annoying because I am usually always working (except when I'm playing uno in IRC lol). Rose: I have 2 classes done and am halfway there on my third class for this week. Thorn: 29 more sketches to do before tomorrow at midnight. Thorn: soooooo tired. --------------------  Being Pimped By Aries Since 2003 |

Rose: Pretty good week so far.
Thorn: This is the last week teachers can (legally) give tests this quarter, and oh man are they taking advantage of that. Rose: Today was just so much fun. In physics, we were launching rockets all period (...somehow I got very wet in the process. Grass is slippery in the morning. >_>), and in chem we played with more fire. ;D Meh?: I'm not really into school football. This has been noticed by my overly spirited friends, so I'm going to the game by threat of locker decoration. Rose: Our marching band is playing some Beatles, The Who, and Aerosmith, so ftw on that count. Meh: Wtf at pep rallies. ...Thorn: Which means tomorrow I'll leave home by 6 and not be home til like 10. Fridays are always long days for me, but usually I can come home inbetween activities. =/ Rose: Though, it will be more fun than staying home. Bleh, still grounded. Thorn: My hand hurts. ..Where did all the thorns come from? I'm all happyface right now. -------------------- Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded.

Rose: Oktoberfest last night! Drunk German people are hella entertaining, especially my aunt.
Thorn: Hands down, the most awkward moment of my life was being stopped by my ex-German teacher (mutual hatred) and her asking why I was carrying a beer pitcher. I lied, the mom took my side. Win. Rose: After confirming with my family that there wasn't any underage drinking going on, she f*cked off. Woo. Thorn: So upset over so much stuff right now. :/ *edit so as not to double post >_>* Rose: Awesome day in the Orlando area with my friends. Rose: Gave up trying to find Muse's Resistance online and just bought it. Yay for helping the collapsing FYE and having new car music. Rose/Thorn: My new stat partner is failing, so the teacher said if she gets at least a C on the next test (tomorrow), I'll get extra credit. ..I was supposed to help her this weekend, but.. meh. Now she wants to compare answers on the review I haven't done. Will be a long night. If it comes to it, I'll just let her cheat off of me, no big deal. Rose?: With relevance to the above, between that cup of coffee this morning, this B-12 thing one of my friends convinced me to try, some academic steroids, and a double shot of espresso in a caramel frappe, I probably won't be sleeping tonight anyway. Thorn: I have no idea how all of that happened. >_> Rose: At least I have a lot of stuff to do, so I'll be entertained. Thorn: My mom wants to move to Texas. I found out, from someone else, Saturday. I can't even put into words how much this upsets me. I've pulled every card from hardcore logic to guilt-tripping ("You're seriously going to be this selfish and jeopardize my academic career to pursue something whose success rate you don't even know?", ending with flat-out lying and being offensive with it* ("Texas is full of those stupid conservative fundamentalist f*cktards. I don't want to be atheist in Texas. Some redneck will shoot me. Bush. Look at Bush. A product of Texan schooling.") *Sorry Voices. >_> I know it isn't exactly like this, but I'm trying everything I can, and if that means using Texas' stereotypes against it.. it's worth a try.  Totally nothing personal, Texas is actually probably better than Florida. I just.. don't want to move during the middle of high school. =/ Thorn: Two days of crying and my family trying to reason with her later.. there's been little success. It's gone from "We're moving." to "I guess there are some things I need to look into first." Practically praying the school doesn't offer HL chem, so I can use the "How can I become a chemical engineer?!" excuse.

Rose: I managed to finish all of my classes before Smiler's radio show, which never seems to happen.
Thorn: I got a huge splinter in my heal yesterday and so it's sore and I'm walking strangely on it. Thorn: Because of walking strangely on my bad ankle, it's now twice it's normal size. Rose: I'm in a good mood and probably will be for quite some time, even if I am stressed or unhappy for a day. I don't know that this makes sense to anyone but me and my multiple personalities.

Rose: Lawl, my history teacher gave his classes all the questions and answers to the exam while the other teacher's classes have to write an essay on the spot. That's a nice change from the other dude giving weekly extra credit and inflating the hell out of his students' grades.
Thorn: Wtf at the PSAT. I don't understand why they expect the apogee of our math skills to be "20x=4y. How many times greater than y is x?", while assuming we know words like apocryphal and abstemious. Ask me some calculus and the definition of alliance or something. Math > English. Rose: Those two questions excluded, it was still really easy and a nice mid-week break from exams. Rose: Nice weather. Rose: Yummy noms. Rose: Studying outside. Rose: Almost three day weekend time. Horror Niiights Thorn: Only five more exams.. Rose: Only three of them matter, and one of those three I know all the answers for, one is take home, and the other.. I'm devoting the next 5 hours to. Rose: Generally happy, but, also, headache. D: -------------------- Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded.

Thorn: I had to drop a class today because I was doing so poorly.
Rose: Now I have more time to concentrate on my other classes. Rose: It won't be effecting my financial aid. Thorn: I had to pay money to drop the class. Thorn: I've been kind of bummed all day about it. Thorn: And stressed because my adviser seemed to think that I could only take 2 courses next semester instead of the 3 that I need to get the financial aid check. Rose: But the head of the department approved me for taking a 3rd class! Thorn: And it felt like forever waiting for an answer because she's in Australia. Rose: I will not have to suffer an "I told you so" moment from my mom now! Rose: Or worry about how much I'm spending while in England.

Fml: I really need to stop these 20.5 hour days.

Rose: So.. if grades would be determined by exam scores exclusively, I would have all A's..
Thorn: But they aren't, so I have a B in Stats. Eugh. Rose: High B? Thorn: Rick Scott is passing Alex Sink in the government elections. Thorn: Eugh at people. Right now, we have 7 cent sales tax, 1/4 of a cent going to public schools. This is expiring. People would rather it be 6 cents than 6.5 cents, with half a cent going to school.s Stupid people. Taxes are good. Honestly, if you spend like $50000 on stuff a year, (I'm estimating on the high end), you spend $250 more a year on taxes than you would with the 6 cent tax. Big lamping deal. Schools get twice as much. Rose: My classes are all still wonderfully enjoyable. -------------------- Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded.

Rose: Man, I love my chem teacher's notes. Ten pages of the notes she types up covers 70 textbook pages. Granted, no pictures, but they're super specific, have stars next to the important things, and will save you from a night of hell the day before tests. Rose: Donating blood tomorrow. Thorn: Have to miss physics. Rose: Love English class. Last week wrote an essay admonishing corporate sponsorships, this week took the piss out of Bill Buckley. 100s on both. Ftmfw. Rose: The "like my status and I'll post a song that makes me think of you" has reminded me of how awesome the Flobots are. Rose: Going to a 6 acre corn maze on Saturday. Actually totally excited to play around on a farm.

Kind of scared of shower-baths in the dark now. >_> I guess drowning was never a real threat considering it woke me up.. but.. still. Thorn: All wrinkly now. >_> Rose: Tired. Will sleep awesomely.

Thorn: Uneventful Halloween.
Thorn: My halloween costume didn't even get finished in time, though I guess it doesn't matter since I had nowhere to go. Rose: Landed what is more or less my dream job. Thorn: Said dream job takes up a lotttt of time, all of which is spent staring at a computer screen. It's not good for my poor eyes. ROSE: because the job is all done online, I was finally able to get a mohawk.
