Bored to death. Friends are all occupied, one's at some seminar, the other is watching television, etc. I've seen every movie they have at the theater, so that's not option either. It was 5:00pm what felt like hours ago, and now it's 5:15. Sigh, time is frozen, and it seems I'm doomed to a life of boredom. I'll probably just end up in bed at around nine. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

I'm about 1000 words over word count on this essay. I've got a few hours to snip and chop, yeah, but... it was a really good essay. I put a lot of time and effort into it. I write pretty tightly and concisely, so every point I'm making is pretty important and made as briefly as I can; I don't want to amputate the bloody thing :\

Maybe I can get away with using a size 11 font instead of the default size 12. We'll see. If I can get it down to within 500 words over without cutting any of the good stuff, that's probably acceptable.

There is no bigger FML moment than when the hot water runs out just as the shampoo touches your hair.

I had somthing...strange happen to me yesterday. I fell asleep at my computer before doing any of my homework, and went into this weird state of sleep-but-not-really that I kept waking up from and falling back into in a physically painful manner. During this, I had a dream that my school let Kim-Jong-Il visit it, and he said some kind of passcode. After this, the building locked down, and all of my teachers and the police promptly mass murdered the student body, using the survivors for slave labor. I eventually escaped, barely, and then the nightmare ended. I then woke up just at the time I normally leave for school with a headache that made me feel like my skull was split in two.

Screw it, I'm not going to school through all of that, not today. No homework done, a horrific nightmare, painful sleep, and a headache as bad as the one I have is justification for staying home in my book.

I am so tired...  Playing Darksiders, my guy was surrounded by yellow orbs for a moment, and I thought my Pokemon was confused.  Sometimes I realize I have no memory of the past few minutes, like I dozed off and kept playing unhindered while I was asleep.

Looks like the SCP Foundation has been hijacked by spammers.

I try to access their site and get bounced around several IP adresses to a spam page.

It's being spammed by dozens of pages about spheres and cubes that make you go crazy for no reason.

I'm renting a textbook from Berkeley because, for unknown reasons, the professor decided that his honors course needed to use a shitty text.

If it's one day overdue, there's a $160 fine.  The book costs $180 new, and $92 to rent.

Fuckers.

Used, it costs $99 + shipping, and frankly I don't actually want to own it.

On the other hand, it might be worth it =/  Guess I need to think a little.
