School started on Tuesday.

Everything was going smoothly until I check my schedule on the UArts website Sunday night only to find that my schedule is not to be found.

Stupid glitch, right? Every other student was probably checking the same thing.

So I check it Monday morning. No schedule. It even says that I am not even registered for anything whatsoever.

WTF!?

Sarah comes over since I haven't seen her pretty much at all since she got home. I asked her what she thought might've happened.

"Oh? You didn't hear?" she askes me.

"...hear what?"

"Oh. Half the students' schedules got wiped."

Oh. Is that all? That's nice....

*kills people*

NICE JOB UARTS! I had registered way ahead of time, got into all the classes I had wanted, got my Wednesday's free, and this is what happens? Thanks a lot, fuckfaces, thanks A LOT!

On top of that, my cell phonefuvking miraculously stopped working. So I had a lovely stressful Tuesday morning, stomping over to school like an enraged Nazi, fighting through lines of stupid Freshmen at the Registrar who wanted to get shit copied, got my queer little "Spring 2006" sticker on the back of my ID that I 'so sorely' needed in order to do anything, and FINALLY got my schedule reinstated into the computer. One of the girls behind the counter actually had to find the hard copy that I filled out with my advisor and she herself inputted my schedule back into the system. Thank you, dear.

Then, I ditched my theory class (it's the first day and it's the easiest class I have. I am totally in SPED theory) and went to NJ to find the right Verizon store where they could fix my phone. It was in the Deptford mall, so I high-tailed it over there and they mercifully replaced it with no charge since the software was damaged (somehow). So props to Verizon. Fuck you to the UArts computer system. Props to girl who found and input my schedule.

I am not taking as many classes as I usually do this semester (OMG I've gone down from 10 to only 8! *dies*) but this is good. I'll have more time to work on my jury stuff when that comes up.

Another thing.

Something sort of happened when I was in NJ on Tuesday. I was with my friend Glenn (with whom I used to train in Okinawa Kenpo; we got out black betls together) and he and John have been taking Wushu now (Wushu is a form of Kung-fu btw). I've heard some amazing things about that crap they do in there, advanced tumbling, cooler weapons than what we did in Kenpo, and everything is much less commercialized and stupid and nobody cares about money here (unlike my last Sensei) and this guy is totally badass, right of the boat from China, and runs a pretty amazing school. The forms they do right off the bat are ten times more cool and advanced than what we were doing as black belts in Kenpo. So I went, watched, died and now...

I want to take it SO badly!!!!

I figure...if I can maybe work weekends, get at least 50 bucks a week, I can put a hundred into martial arts and a hundred into cons and costuming everything month. It's only about 90 a month. Yes, I know there are places around here around that range, and I wouldn't have to worry about Glenn picking me up at the station or calling my parents and begging them to pick me up and drop me off in the city afterwards, but you know? It's always worth it to go somewhere where you know someone. It's not too far, it's not too expensive, and I met Master Li; he is fucking amazing. I don't mind the commute too much, and I think it's important for me to actually start working and paying for something I really wanna do. I hardly got anything at the video game store, so I couldn't really put away for it, and the Korean grocery store where Beck works needs a person for the deli. They are really flexible and I love everyone there XD I think it would be worth it, and you guys know how I love martial arts and staying in shape and being healthy XD Maybe if I have more responsibility like this I'll be able to manage my time better. And if it gets too much, I'll just tell Master Li that I need to take a month or two off and come back when my school work is done.

Plus, who doens't want to learn how to do an aerial? (A no-handed cartwheel) Fucking hot, huh? People who have been there for a month are already doing shit like that, and backflips and round-offs and all sorts of awesome shit. Hoshi!!!!!!!!

Now I just have to talk to Chris at the store and see if I can work for him, along with making sure I can have those con weekends free. Let's hope for the best!

BTW. I saw Brokeback Mountain with Beck and Kate. FUCKING AMAZING!!! Two gorgeous actors, two gorgeous actresses, angst, love, secrecy, GAYNESS and best of all...SURPISE BUTTSECKS! And fucking wonderful Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal...hottest gay cowboy around with Heath Ledger in second) was quoted saying that he was fucking flattered that people thought he was bisexual and would be totally open and unafraid if he was sexually attracted to a man. HOLY FUCKING SHIT, DONNIE, TAKE ME HOME!! Or....uh...take Heath home. You're pretty 'familiar' with him, right? RIGHT? I've never seen so many fangirls and gay men in a theatre before. Everyone got hilariously silent at all the hot parts, which were, in care you were wondering, OH SO FUCKING HOT. There was also this out-of-place straight couple there and I'm sure the guy was thinking "Man, my g/f is gonna be so aroused by this movie, I am DEFINITELY getting laid tonight." Good thinking, bro.

Anyway. I should join Rebecca in bed. She took off today and I didn't have classes, so we slept until like 3 ><; Lazy assholes. So I am trying to tire myself out...maybe I'll read some smut XD

Goodnight. And get used to these long updates XD I'm ridiculous like that.

PS: Check out my icon made by my dearest Ant! I love you! And Kate and Rob, I miss you guys hardcore! Can't wait for Katsu! And wish me luck with finding work and commuting to NJ to make martial arts! ><;
