i'll be looking forever
Weekend sure was nice. I got homework done on Friday and Saturday! Not major things, just small crap like pre labs and finishing chinese homework.
Oh yes, so on Friday Mary Ann, Swarnima, Lara and I went with other building residents and Stan and RAs (I include them only because we know a lot of them from last year so they're like friends) to an Indian restaurant called Electric Lotus in Los Feliz. The four of us got to ride crammed in Eugene's car, so that was fun and probably annoying to poor Eugene. But the food there was quite good, and I enjoyed it a lot. We had Swarnima to pretty much order for our group of people (there were 2 large tables but we all kinda split up into chunks to make ordering and choices easier). Yum. There were so many new things I tried, and it was cool. We were supposed to see Memoirs of a Geisha after but we ran so late and just came back when we were done.
Then I went home at like 9:45.
Saturday was delightful. I woke up at a home record of 8:30. My mom started making a nice breakfast and I hopped off to buy flowers from the Farmer's Market. I'm glad I went there instead of getting a bouquet elsewhere like my dad usually does, cause I got the best flowers in the world. A bunch of white mums, an interesting bunch of carnations cause my mom loves those (they were dark red and white), and my favorite, these awesome tulips that are red and yellow. They're soooo pretty! I also picked up a small basket of strawberries for breakfast and they turned out really good.
Later that day my mom and I went on a few errands..I had to get a microphone for Chinese. Found a good one at Target, and picked up other things. A cool hair curler that is the size I've really been wanting, and lots of Goldfish. I really like the Parmesan one.
Dinner with my mom's side of the family at Tokyo Lobby was ok. It got a little annoying sitting next to my cuz who demands me attention and doesn't let me talk to other grown ups. It also got a little annoying just cause..family stuff grates my nerves sometimes these days.
I stayed up til 3:30 watching Pirates of the Caribbean last night. Don't ask why. That is such a bad movie..
Now I'm back at school, and I feel so bad. I just don't wanna be here right now. I'm trying really hard to figure out what I want to do with my education and career and life, because there is nothing worse than having no goal. It must be my ruin. I have NO motivation. I feel like one of those down and out drunks who lost everything (like in the movies) and just sits around wallowing in misery and guilt and whatnot and can't get up to do anything. Ugh I mean, honestly..if you suddenly didn't know what the hell you were doing and where the hell you were, and you were taking biochem and ochemb, you'd be like WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING?!#$ Cause those classes suck. But anyways, I have now determined that I must go..to the BIO DEPARTMENT. Env. Studies wouldn't have worked out that well for me, and there's actually a lot of upper div. bio courses concerning ecology and the environment that I want to take. THAT'S the type of stuff I was searching for. So it looks like I might just end up with a B.S. in Bio..and I'm going to ask the department for help on a minor and a course of study to work on for environmental stuff. Yay. I feel better already. I'll go make an appointment with the advisors tomorrow.
