Monday and Tuesday were pretty weird for me...
Monday night I was trying to do some homework quickly so that I could actually go to sleep by 3am, though I try to go to bed by 2am on school nights. Unfortunately, I went to bed at 4am and fell asleep at 4:30. Of course, I usually wake up at 7, so of course I woke late. It really sucks to take the bus to school...
Well, I was planning on taking my laptop to Bestbuy and have the Geek Squad take a look at it since the cooling fan inside doesn't work too well and the CPU usage is at 100% eventually (warrenty on my laptop expired so I am screwed) . So, after my class was over at 11:20, I took the 11:45 and got to the West Oaks mall an hour later (I forgot what time, but I usually get home in an hour). I got inside Bestbuy and talked with the Geek Squad guy and he told me that an overheating could make the CPU work faster, but more than likely it could be something else and offered to take my laptop in for servicing. When I asked how long it would take he told me it would take 3 to 4 weeks, and so I told him I'd think about, but really....not really...I'm just going to, eventually, buy an external hard drive, put all my crap in there, reboot my laptop so that it would start up as went I first got it, and see what happens....
With my laptop in my book bag (designed to hold a laptop) along with a book and an umbrella, I walked outside into the 101 degree sun into Borders, where I bought 3 manga (Dolls), spending my clothing money in the process. After that, around 2pm, I walked outside all the way to the mall with a heavy book bag feeling heavier. I decided to go into a store called X-treme Play to play something and waste an hour. In fact, I wasted my time there by not playing there, but by surfing the 'net and drawing a quick oekaki. I really should have played some Warcraft 3 like I did before. I didn't really do much at the mall. I got my watch battery changed for the 3 time, but my watch still doesn't work (I now believe that it is the watch itself that is broken, not the battery). After walking around some more, I became hungry and ate some lunch. Once it was a little after 4, I called my mother and asked if she could take me home (her job is close to the mall), but she could only get me once she is off at 5. After that, I decided to just sit in one spot and start reading my manga, because walking around was killing my back.
I don't really regret not seeing a movie this time since I already spent enough money on manga and going to a movie theater alone so soon just depresses me....being near the food court kind of depressed me, which is why I waited a while before I ate there.
In no time, she finally came and we before we went home we needed to pick up a few thing, but that meant going outside into the sauna like heat. I was suffocating! Anyways, after we got home at 6, I was finally able to get some sleep.So, from 6:30 to 11, I was knocked out, though I only briefly opened my eyes at that time and quickly fell back asleep. I actually woke completely up at 2am. Seeing as how I was asleep all night, I ate something and watched some TV and then went back into my room and read some more manga until 4:30am and tried to go back asleep.
Because I only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday, I was able to sleep in. I still wanted to wake up at around 11am, but I was still too drowsy to get up and put the alarm on snooze. I, then, wanted to get up at 12, but was still too drunk to get up until 12:30. I didn't do much today except for reading the rest of my manga and going to work. I hope that I'll be able to get my laptop fixed, because it feels pretty hot right now, but not hot enough to shutdown, I hope....
