Been doing stuff at work today. Not just sales, but I have homework, which Mario pressed on me to do. It is basically vital that I do my share of the homework in order for both of us to pass Poly Sci. Anyways, I've been sifting through all the shit in this book, to find what I deem is necessary to be known. The only problem with that is that what I feel is important is completely irrelevant in the teachers point of view most of the time. He puts a bunch of questions that are really shitty and annoying, nitpicking at little information that if you had actually read rather than skimmed you would know. Unfortunately, I am too stubborn to fix my studying technique, so I'm probably gonna get a 'B' this next test, supposing that there aren't as much crap questions as there were in the last one. The entire chapter 5 is mostly just common knowledge, or whatever you should have learned in highschool or even middleschool, elections and stuff, really simple.
The type of blood donation I gave was simply pure red blood cells. They separated the red from the rest, and then gave me back what they didn't need. It was crazy though, 'cause whenever it went back into me, I guess because of the speed, but my heart felt pressured, and my lips started trembling, probably unvisibly so, but I felt it very profoundly. Also, the plasma and stuff cooled down to about room temperature, so when it went back in, my arm, followed by my neck and chest started feeling awkwardly cool. A unique experience if I say so.
While waiting to leave, Cloud called me, so I went over to her place, which is actually within walking distance of the blood bank. We were outside for quite some time, just talking and stuff. Went all the way into the evening, till around 8:00, when Da and Mario called me about heading over to my house for Halo. So I invited my cousins over to my house. Cloud finished up typing an essay for her class, while JC sat around watching Da, Mario, Diego, Mario's brother and Omar play Halo. I swapped between watching and chilling with Cloud. Eventually I started to play Halo, since their match ended, and we did some CTF. I was either on the winning team or the winner of almost every match that we played. Not in a timeline, we played a bit of CTF, and Zombie, which was hilarious, but you can't really tell who the winner of those games is. We also played Swords, where I lost once, coming in second to Omar.
Cloud and JC had a curfew of 10:00, so when that time came around, I took them back, JC giving me a massage on the way over, so good. Da and I teamed up for the last two games, one in a really close quarters urban battleground, and another on the island foundation. Good tactics on boths sides, it was really fun.
Well, gotta close up work, I'm hungry too.
