Dream Silently

…and all I loved, I loved alone.

Making Faces

I’m experimenting with facial masks. You know, the kind you smear on and let dry. Right now it feels like I have something unnaturally clinging to my face, sucking it dry.

When you’ve had problems with acne for as long as I have, you tend to get a little desperate. I’ve noticed that when I’m stressed, I become a super nova. Ex foliating helps a lot, so I decided I would go up a notch. I’ll share the results when I figure it out. *starts making faces to make sure her cheeks are still there*

Last week sucked. I don’t know what is wrong with me when I go off my BC and onto the placebos. I feel irritable and violent. It scares me actually because I don’t usually have those kind of emotions rolling off me. And they jump around erratically. One moment I’ll be feeling fine, the next I want eat someone for lunch, and then I’m a barrel of tears. I came very close to seeing if I could baseball bat the Colonel’s head off his shoulders one of those times. It felt like (which I’m sure he really wasn’t trying to do on purpose) that he was accusing my testing of being shitty. On top of that, he wants the contractor out of there, but keeps tacking on more items to our “To Do” list. I want to hear his scream of panic when he finally figures out how much he’s paying in Time and Materials (TnM) because that’s what the contractor is doing now and I know its not cheap.

This week may shape up to being better. I scored a hundred on my calc quiz and only messed up fluids a bit. I have to speed things up this week too. I’m promised people I would go boarding with them up in Twin Falls this weekend. Its kind of a last hurrah before spring comes. I’m thinking it’ll be fun and I may come back in pieces because I haven’t boarded in over 3 years :D

Well, that’s it in a jackpot. I gotta go peel crap off my face.

The Circle fits in the Square

If it doesn’t, I’ll make it.

I couldn’t get the proctor extractor top thingy back in place. You have to switch plate pieces because of the different mold sizes. It didn’t fit. I swore it didn’t fit. TS proved me wrong. It was an amusing day, let’s put it that way.

Classes started on monday and I switched my schedule around at work. I’m working from 6 to 3. It is the strangest thing to not be working in the late afternoon. And I’m tired. That’s probably not a surprise. But, I have been studying… go me! And squeezing in a few other activities. Seeing as I’m only 2 days into this, I think I can’t say if this semester is going to be a smooth ride or not yet.

Never mind the brief hyperventilation when I opened the calculus review book. Of course, right now its basics in trig. But to realize you’re rusty… its a scary thought.

So, this weekend I didn’t do much. I went out friday and got trashed. It was a fairly large group of us too. We started out at AL’s place for dinner, went downtown and about doubled our size (a group of like 6 to 12). I paid for it the next day and ended up staying in town, instead of going to Salt Lake like I had originally been planning. I had fun and that’s what matters the most to me. I actually was told, more than once, that I need to come out more often.

I never realized the importance of feeling accepted into a group like that. Wait until they figure out how truly weird I am. hahaha

On a side note, my company’s VP will be here tomorrow and we all have to attend a mandatory staff meeting. I so hope its about the merger.
