Well the lack of sleep and the minima amounts of sleep I have been getting recently have really caught up with me and I know that all for a fact now. Why? Because I have been napping off and on during the last few days. Before the last couple of weeks I only ever napped when I had been pulling long work days for at least a week or so; now I find I lack the energy and everything to even run (Like tonight) yet I am so tired that the only thing that feels good at all is closing my eyes and laying down. Well, it makes me feel better and it seems to keep me from slightly going anymore of the edge than I normally am. So until I find some time to try and once again reset and re-establish my internal clock and settings. With any luck this weekend, when I head home for Thanksgiving and all and a quick stop over at SUNY Purchase for a quick visit with some people, I will be able to enjoy home, food, my treadmill and a chance to read a new book and reset myself. Hell people, it's my best chance I got to go on so I'm going to take full advantage of it.
Yes sir, home (LI home) still holds many advantages that I intend to take full use of when I have the chance.
Today was very dull actually. I did some light reading, bought some drinks & snacks for the next few days and made plans to cook some dinner tomorrow for everyone at my house and then just enjoyed some rounds with my GBA while I finished a book a very close friend of mine, Jon Cristaldi, gave to me for Christmas last year: Alas, Babylon. A simple, amazing, direct book. I suggest it to anyone who wants a good read with some views on what life was, and could have been, back when everyday was threatened by the idea of Nuclear Holocaust and the general decline and destruction of the America as they knew it.
Classes have been good, mainly getting ready for final projects and performances due in early December. All throughout Thanksgiving break I have to get my research done for two 15 page papers and a performance piece in my Performance Theatre class. Speaking of which I have a piece to create for this Friday in Multicultural Education, about where my views of ME lie and how a text, the I and a group of three other of my peers chose, helps to show where my views lie, how they got there and where I developed them from the beginning of the class.
Also, as of now, I am applying for scholarships and grants all across the board to help pay my way to Emerson in the next coming year and a half, or however long I choose to stay at Emerson or in school for that matter, so if anyone, anyone knows of any sites, links or places where I could find more scholarships, grants or just companies that offer such things please please let me know via here on LJ, on AIM or call me for heavens sake. Any help that you can give me in my month’s long search would be appreciated and loved. As always,
Registered fro my three courses next semester with adds up to about 16 hours of school a week, not including meetings, projects, commute or the such of course, which also means that more time for me to be busy. A lot more than this previous semester I must say with only two classes so this is, for me, a very good thing.
I'm also hunting around for some good work over Winter break and stretching into the New Year of course. So that's yet another journey I have to make this week....I might start looking around at some places that offer commission for sales. I have it on very good authority from a friend of mine that that's the way to go these days. But we'll see.
Now, test goodness:
You choose your friends wisely and even though they
may be few in number, they are high in
importance.
You feel most comfortable when you can follow the
crowd and let others make decisions. But that's
not to say you can't make up your own mind if
you need to.
Faithful and true, Piglets make the best friends.
Which Pooh character are you? brought to you by
Quizilla Your soul is bound to the Rose Petals: The
Wronged.
"'ve come undone and all hopes of mending
me are gone because the pain took my soul.
Can't you see? The only one who can put me
back together again is me."
The Rose Petals are associated with sorrow,
reflection, and wisdom. They are governed by
the goddess Persephone and their sign is The
Teardrop, or Broken Love.
As a Rose Petal, you are always self-reflective and
may be hard on yourself. You probably have
been hurt in the past by other people and can
sometimes distance yourself, as a result. You
don't usually let other get too close to you,
but you are very good at mending your spirits
back together by yourself.

Life's not fair! It's never been fair, but while
adults might just accept that, I know
something's gotta change. And it's gonna
change, just as soon as I become an adult and
get some power of my own.
