Sailor Soldier of Love and Justice

Today was my Java I midterm. I was a bit worried, but I made flash cards and had little trouble with them so I felt a lot better.

When I got to class, I commiserated with another classmate about how crazy it is that we have to hand write everything during tests. Not even a basic text editor. No one hand writes anything any more so it's pretty unfair, in my opinion. I type much faster than I write.

 Anyway, the test wasn't bad at all. (Aside from the hand writing.) I feel pretty confident I got an A.

I felt really bad for one guy in my class. He gave up halfway through. He didn't know any of it. Though he didn't do any of the homeworks or labs either, so really he only has himself to blame. It would be safe to guess he's dropping the course.

He set up a website about a month ago as a part clown for hire. He even had a few gigs already. Maybe that will work out for him and he can be a small business owner instead.

I learned they are not offering Java II next semester, which is really unfortunate because I wan't able to get any internships for the summer. I guess I'll have to look again and hope there's a few out there. If not, I think I'm going to really focus on Ruby over the summer. And maybe make an android app too if I have enough Java under my belt.

Keeping busy will be the key!

Today is beautiful out. I am sad to be stuck indoors all day. It's unfair and unnatural!

Seriously considering leaving early to go to the zoo...

It is now completely dark when I get up in the morning. It's bad enough the bed is warm and the sleeping husband won't let me go, but now I have to battle with darkness too to drag myself out of bed.

I noticed yesterday that the leaves on some of the trees around my apartment have started to change colors. Sad! I missed the whole summer!

There were so many things I wanted to do, but I didn't have the time. Oh well, now that the wedding is out of the way, I should hopefully have more time.

Last night ben and I started to use our mighty free time to clean the apartment. I think if we do an hour a day, we should have it all under control in a month or so. We're starting with the kitchen. Last night we organized all the tupperware and threw out the lids that had no bottoms and the bottoms that had no lids.

I think the next step will be to put the baking supplies where the pans are (making them closer to the breadmaker) and then putting all the pans with the baking pans in the larger cabinet where the baking supplies once were. We will need the extra space for all the new pans we got for the wedding. I should also throw out the old baking supplies, like the chocolate chips that are over a year old and look nasty.

Ben and I went shopping today. The thermometer on my car said it was 100 degrees out!

The gargoyles comic is supposed to come out today. (Finally!) But I think I'm going to wait until tomorrow. I want to make sure it's actually on the shelves.

Still very very anxious. I tried walking some of it off on my trip to the post office and bank, but I didn't really have enough time to get a good walk in. At least it was nice and warm out. It's always so cold inside buildings. When I step outside, I can feel the ice melting off of my bones.

People, the cold will not slow the aging process like it does for food. Rejoice in the fresh air and warmth of the sun!
