Well, here's my attempt at using this as an actual journal.
Today I woke up around 9AM. I worked on the User Manual for the group project in my Software Engineering class. I went to campus around 11. Worked on the user manual until 2, in which I had to go to class. I basically finished the user manual at that time. Had to change one thing after class. I handed in the user manual. I hope it gets an A, because that will almost solidify my A in that class. I'm set up to get 4 A's and 2 B's this semester. I'm hoping I can pull this off, because it would really help considering my 1.7 semester GPA last semester. It would also stick it to anyone who thought I couldn't turn myself around and get back on the right track. In doing the user manual so much, I had to choose not to do an outline for my paper in my Fundamentals of Security Engineering class, which is bad, but whatever. I'll email it to him tomorrow. Shouldn't be too bad of a penalty. That professor let me borrow a book, so I could use it as one of my sources. Funny enough, I actually want to read it. My paper is on rootkits, which are kernel level trojan horses. There's more to them, but I haven't done much research on it yet, so I don't know much else. I got home around 4:30 and hung out with my roomate Austin and Mook, who lives downstairs. I watched them play Madden for Xbox and then we went to subway. After we got back, Me and Austin came back to our apartment. From 9-now we've been bored. I watched him play a game of Madden on PS2, then we played poker until now. I'm bored and tired, so I'm going to sleep after this. Tomorrow I'm going to my friend's house for this Anti-Thanksgiving thing they have. I really don't know much about it other than it's just like thanksgiving, only with more drinking. Austin was supposed to go with me, but he opted out last minute. Oh well.
I've been thinking a lot lately about my lack of a girlfriend, and it's disheartening. In thinking about it, I really don't know why I have never had one. I tend to like girls who are not available to me, I think that's what it is. I met someone a few weeks ago at a bar when I was visiting Justin, but I found out she has a boyfriend, or at least she said something about "hanging with her bf" but she said that after talking about her best friends. So it could be miscommunication, but I'm not deluding myself. It is a little saddening though. I laid down last night, wishing I could just hold someone and have someone hold me back. My roomate and a few friends of mine are determined to get me a girlfriend, well no, they're determined to "get me laid". I think I'd rather the girlfriend, but at this point, I'd probably take whatever. One thing I've noticed is that I get down about it still, but I don't really get depressed about it anymore, which is good. I guess I'll have to just run with it and see what happens. Everyday is a new possibility I suppose.
