productivity, yay!

Feb 20, 2007 21:52

don't be mislead by the subject - it was productivity interlaced with lots of my usual dicking around.  i've downloaded WAY too much music.  but not doing the musical has really opened up a lot of time for me...which will be immediatly sucked up by my four classes, two UROPs, one part-time job, and a goal to get back in shape.  sigh.  its a vicious cycle, it really is.  but i'm really getting into the groove of really focusing on working and not getting too distracted, and when i do, get distracted for a limited amount of time. 
i feel like i'm going back to living in the moment again.  good thing, i was missing that. 
oh man, my metabolism today was in hyperoverdrive.  i got massively hungry every 3-4 hours, even after snarfing down a huge "XXL HUNGRYMAN" frozen dinner...trust me, it was a lot of food...but then, not 4 hours later, I was craving food again.  sigh.  cibbo says its because i'm a 14 year old boy.  i'm not sure that i disagree. 
my creative zen [shiny new bday present from the fam!] still won't work...grr stupid acer computer and stupid installation cd written in DOS and therefore not compatible with linux...

This year was once again a sci-fi celebration extravaganza.  funny thing is, it felt like i had two birthday parties, cuz the night before i went to the burton third speakeasy...it was in many ways a good idea, and in only a few a bad idea...i got all the insane raucous drinking/dancing/partying out of me, and good thing i don't get hungover...even after a blackout...heehee.  but that allowed me to be in the mood to enjoy the movies and [slightly] classier booze the next night. I got some awesome presents - nikki brought brownies [no,not special brownies ;)] and gave me a "freeloader's fork" that can extend like a lecturer's pointer; shanying and anton got me a lucky cat figurine; kathleen brought me a bottle of capt morgan's pineapple rum [tasty...]; mia got me a madlibs book and one of the most excellent birthday cards in my life ever; kat got me a box of random junk that included a dinosaur they [her and cibbo] stole from carlos [heeheehee]; and my brother got me the firefly dvds and the tv show soundtrack.  HOWEVER - the best present I got at the beginning of the day, when me and carlos woke from our drunken stupor in kathleen's futon to stumble to sunny's with dan, daisy, and dawn - and when we met at 77 mass ave, dawn handed me a wonderful wrapped up lump of mystery...it was my very own copy of Reign of Fire, and container of those BIG ASS THUMBTACKS we passed when we visited mystery hunt headquarters and i was tripping BALLS!!!  those two went into my hall of fame of awesome, and  upped dawn's status in the hall of awesome.  that night we started out festivities with "Darkest Knight", and I honestly cannot tell you any more about the plot than i could have before watching it.  but it made for some great group mockery, and then of course we watched reign of fire, and i put on battlefield earth while we played never-have-i-ever, which yeilded some interesting results...muahahaha!
but all in all, good times are flowing...huzzah!  *happy dance*
