Its like I haven't had time for myself.
Current mood: confused

Ugh...I've been so burnt out from school. Working between 30-40 hour shifts while trying to be normal sucks. There's a lot I wish I could do that I haven't had time for. Sleep isn't as big of a priority as I wish it were. I'm stuck trying to sleep twice a day. The days I work, I get up by 7 or 8, goto class, get home, try and see if I can catch an hour of sleep, get up and put the shirt and tie on, work, come home, do homework, and then try to sleep and do the samething the next day. It sucks that the dude at work got fired, I was somewhat cool working 24 hours a week. At least I'll have some good checks again, which is cool, because Christmas is coming up, not to mention I haven't to pay for next years classes. Thank God for finding out I'll be a Junior. Being this busy makes it hard for finding a relation that'll work. Think I'll just put that all on hold until classes at least lighten up. Stupid having to do speeches and essays everyday. There's only 3 more weeks of class left. Can't wait for the break, I'll finally get to hang out with people I haven't seen in a while.

Guess what? My parents are going out of town this weekend. I was thinking about throwing a party, and then I remembered I was going out of town as well. I'm going to go see Mos Def up in Alberquerque. Should be good. There's supposed to be a lot of El Paso heads up there, and maybe we can celebrate on Central and University or something along those lines.

Recently what I've been doing to relax on my days off is listening to This American Life (www.thisamericanlife.org). Its the greatest program in the world. Its a show on NPR that I rarely get to hear when its playing on Sundays, so I make up for it by listening to streaming episodes. Its great. Today I heard this episode of people doing all these life changing events, which I kind of feel I'm going through myself, some cuz I want to and other stuff cuz I have no choice. So at the beginning they're talking to some girl who became lesbian for years, and then finally realized she wasn't. Some Hascidic Jew in New York, who had never seen TV, much less movies, radio, or any other medium suddenly opened in his eyes and joined a rock band. At his gigs he was all studded out in his typical dress, you know all black, hat, and the curly things coming down his sideburns. And finally a girl reading out loud her diary from when she was 13, who ended up having a pretty crazy life at that age. Its great shit to listen to, should you have the time to dedicate yourself to the full hour episode.

Damn, I haven't written so much in a long time. I really need to find more time to do this stuff. I miss it. I also need to start walking again in the middle of the night, though its a bit cold now.

I miss my Miata, I'm getting it back for Christmas. I'm considering changing her name to Motoko Kusunagi.
