I don't know what compelled me to do it but when I got home tonight I started looking into my course selection for next year and I actually finished all the research including a final printout of what my schedule is going to look like in about 2 hours. Last year it took me FOREVER to figure everything out so this is just weird. I really hope I get all the course I want because having Thursdays and Fridays off first semester will be pretty fuckin sweet. and give me two entire extra days to work on my studio projects which I definitely could have used last year.
I can't believe I could have been graduating at the end of this year, it's pretty mindboggling that it's gone by so fast and just like high school I didn't get involved in anything at school. I care but at the same time I don't. I don't live on campus, I'm a pretty demanding program, and I have a part-time job...that doesn't really leave a lot of spare time for joining a "club" or being on a committee. I might make the effort this year to join BAASS (the student architecture committee) to meet some ppl in my program and at least be involved in something. At the very least it takes going to a meeting sometime every week. Last year it was at some ridiculous time on Fridays around 6ish or something....if it's like that again they can kiss my ass lol there's no way in hell I'm gonna stay till that late on a Friday. But if not I might as well make some effort.
It has only been about, what, 2 days since Joe left for Cuba with his familia...but since summer started, at the very least, I've pretty much seen him everyday so it's weird having not seen him for a couple of days knowing that I won't be seeing him till Sunday. It has given me some time to focus on getting some organization going though so at least that's a good thing. Tomorrow before class I wanna tackle my closet and throw some shit out. Some thing are just impossible to finish...there's no way all my architecture stuff will ever get organized...ideally I wanna have all my projects each year labelled and carefully put away, all my supplies organized in a kit of some sort, and a good place to keep my paper and modelling materials so that everything doesn't get mixed up...but for all this I need a studio room and my house is just not equipped for that unless my parents give me the spare room to work with which is possible but probably won't be ready in time for September. Then I need to figure out some way to store all my shoes so that I can see them all and access them all easily...right now some are in boxes, some are not, some are piled up on top of each other, some are too high up for me to reach without climbing up to get them and without something to climb to get up there. Then I need to find an affordable way to store my CDs and DVDs, the ever-growing collection, because the system I have now is not working. My towers are falling over...I need wall-mounted shelves, but that's not the problem, the problem is wall space. My room is a fucking box. As long as I have minimal furniture actually on the floor it will look a bit bigger. And I need some kind of filing system. Right now this box acts as a bedroom/studio/office but in the space of a friggin rat's nest and things are just not accessible the way they are right now. It's pretty frustrating.
Whatev...I gotta get some sleep
