Dear Journal,
This is me, writing in hopes of redeeming myself for neglecting you as I have. It is no secret that I haven't had the time, though I should try harder. I finished my fifth-semester as a Law School student and altough I don't have my final grades yet, I know that I did pretty good, all things considered. Uncle is getting better each passing day and I hope that it continues to be like this. Aunt told me that the doctors are thinking about discharging him next week! Meaning no more days spent at the hospital. On the down side, I think I'll miss that cute neurosurgeon *smirk* but everything comes with a price, right?
Starting tomorrow and for about three days I'll be taking a round of tests to qualify for four levels of English without taking the classes. They'll cover English 3, 4, 5 and 6 and then I'll be able to take levels 7 and 8 as intensive courses. I'm doing this because I really didn't want to take all of those as normal courses because they annoy me. I mean, I know all about them! Sadly I can't do the same about the last two levels because they refer to technical English pertaining to my career and the University doesn't let you to pass them with tests. However, I'm looking foward to those lessons.
As I write this, I'm downloading an MV of BoA - MOTO, and by the heavens does she rock! Awesome MV for what I've seen so far.
Lately I've become a freak when it comes to XP-Performance and Shell Style. So much so that I measure with a stop-watch the time my notebook PC takes to shut down and start up. I decided to stop tweaking things in fear of having to restore the whole thing to the manufacturer's default (and go through another backup) which is a pain down there. Still I'll keep an eye on how it performs...
I spoke to Rachie today and the poor girl was fretting about her Valentine's plans with her boyfriend. I've never in my life planned a thing like that and got a bit scared. I suggested a couple of things but I don't think they helped that much. Kyte got online and I added to our IM window but she left us without as much as a gretting. I also got an e-mail informing that I've been removed from my position in her LJ community, which I know is the right thing given that I don't make many appearances there but it hurt a bit. I hope she's not kicking us out of her life.
I've been watching E.R in the hospital, specially the nightly episodes and it's quite upsetting when, after an hour of gore and human drama, you look at a the hospital bed at your right (or left, depending on the room's accomodations) and become face-to-face with a sick person who's gone through all of that (and you along with him). I watched an old episode in which Dr. Green (I think I misspelled it) did some reflections and died; it made me cry for about twenty minutes until I fell asleep in that hospital kind-of-bed reserved for family(which is very uncomfortable mind you).
I think I should go to bed now... I can't be late tomorrow.
Oh! I got my Proactiv Solution Kit today! I'm so excited! Can't wait to see the results!
LOVE,
Dana Daidouji
