(no subject)

Wow, I've never felt so alive! I made it to the top of yet another side of the wall; now all I have left is the center side. Leah didn't feel like climbing so I only climbed up 1.5 times, then I went off the the weights but couldn't life very long because I didn't bring my gloves and the bars hurt my weak pathetic hands. Oh, funny story: I needed to wash my hands after lifting and went into the bathroom and there was a guy there washing his hands! I looked around and thought "why is he in here?" So, guess what, I was in the wrong! I went into the men's bathroom! I said, "how embarrassing" and walked out. It actually wasn't all that embarrassing, but I'm sure I blushed...
In spanish today I found out I must present a 3-5 minute speech. She gave us a list of subjects, so I decided to talk about El Día de Los Muertos. I learned about that day a few years ago and always wanted to go to the celebration in San Francisco but never actually made it. This is my chance to refresh my knowledge on the subject and write a speech in spanish. I need visual aids so if anyone has ideas or anything I could borrow, let me know please!
I had my first experience of seeing a human penis in real life! It is kinda weird that this is how it happened but anyway, in my life drawing class we had a male model. He was a really skinny old man named steve. He was a little too energetic for the amount of energy I had for class. He kept bouncing around on the podium in the classroom and just an overall weird guy. So yes, that's my story for today's class
So, my weekend is starting to shape up. Practically all of my friends are leaving either thursday night or friday morning. But for me, I have plans on friday to fire a kiln with my teacher, then on saturday I am planning on reading and having a picnic all by myself out in the sun, then on sunday I am photographing some portraits for my friend. It's not exactly the perfect weekend as my evenings are completely free and no one is here. Maybe I'll watch a movie or something. Is anyone else going to be here??
Do I expect too much from people? For some reason I expect to find some aspects of myself in others. Mainly I'm talking about reliability. I expect people (my friends mostly) to keep their word and fulfill plans we make and if not, a phone call, even if it's 5 minutes before we are to meet or sometime that day, but no, they don't always do that. Another thing, timeliness. I am always early if not right on time, yet, I always find myself waiting-I bet I have spent a quarter of my life just simply waiting. Today I was supposed to clean kiln shelves and possibly load it, but the other person who was supposed to be there never showed. That wasted my time! I am tired of flakey people. I've lived with that my entire life. Sure, I've gotten used to it and actually expect it from everyone, but couldn't someone, anyone, surprise me? I'm starting to wonder if I should lower my standards. Ack, I don't know, I'm just complaining like crazy; I'll probably feel different tomorrow...
