I’m really tired, bored, irritated, lazy, unmotivated, etc. Seriously. Since I came back from Thanksgiving break, all I want to do is watch LOST, sleep, and download Black Crowes b-sides. I procrastinate and feel sick when I realize how much I have to complete before the semester ends. (see: Oh Crap, How Can I Get All This Done) It would help a little bit if I had ideas for my projects.

Blah.

On a happier note, I’ve got a sickening amount of black crowes mp3s. I’d love to see them on New Year’s Eve at Madison Square Garden, but I have a feeling that it might be a little … crowded in New York that evening.

Since someone mentioned sharing the b-sides, I figured… why not?

Black Crowes B-Sides
1. Waiting Guilty -> I think it was a b-side of Shake Your Money Maker (1990)
2. Peace Anyway -> a b-side of By Your Side (1999)
3. Darling of the Underground Press (live) -> B-Side of The Southern Harmony And Musical Companion (1992)

Let’s go with the playlist first.

In 9th grade, I had to take a cooking class because ‘they’ wouldn’t let me take an art class. (Bitches.) Every week we would get “Minute Minders”, sheets of paper that gave examples of proper etiquette. The only one I can remember well is “How to stop someone from making an annoying noise.”

• 1. Ask, “What is that noise? Do you hear that noise?”
• 2. If they don’t stop, you say, “There it is again… Does anyone else hear it?”
• 3. If they continue, you say, “Excuse me. Can you please stop making that noise?”

(I personally like the “STOP DOING THAT.” method.)

I want to know if those Minute Minder people wrote one about informing other people that they smell bad. Is there a polite way to do that? “What’s that smell?”, “There’s that smell again.”, “Excuse me. Can you please take a shower?”. I think that piece of information would be like gold.

P.S. If “No offense…” is in it, it’s offensive. It is to me, anyway.

I finally found a photolog that I will probably be visiting a lot. Binary Silver. It makes me want to go back to the Philippines. Of course, I bet that a lot of my favorite shots were taken on an island that I’ll never visit. You see, I’ve travelled to the Philippines six times. I love visiting my grandma, but I’m pretty tired of going to the same restaurants and the same resorts. I want to visit other islands besides Luzon (or, at least, other regions of the Luzon island). My dad is too afraid to fly to other islands in those small planes and my dad’s sister is convinced that I’ll be killed. No sense of adventure.
Look at this! How could you not want to go to this place?!

for my Illustration sketchbook.

How do I explain I know I didn’t do much? He knows it. I know it. Save me the humiliation and just give me the not-so-stellar grade. I could blame it on a whole bunch of reasons, but I think it looks bad to blame it on other people. I should’ve found a way to do it. Of course, with no key, no contacts, no organizer in the office, no ftp information or computer passwords, and no one giving me just a little bit of help… it was kind of hard.

I just don’t want to waste another 200 dollars.

I think I’m going to throw up.

Oh, and I totally forgot that I have a test today. Didn’t study.

I think I’m going to throw up. x 2

edit: 9:21AM Okay… so I overreacted. Again. There was a misunderstanding and he thought I was doing the internship for 4 credits instead of 1. Once that all cleared up, he said the site was just fine. I got an A. Higher than what I think I deserve, but I’m not complaining. My GPA went up a little. Insert first sigh of relief here. Here’s the website. Beware: Some pages are a bit off in resolutions higher than 1024×768.
