A plan, to rid of boredom.

Since yesterday was so useless, I've decided to come up with an actual PLAN today to remedy boredom. Today I am going to:
-go volunteer at the spca from whenever I get there to close (5pm, it's closing early today!)
-after, go to the pharmacy and turn in my recommendation letter to Al
-pick up some toilet paper while I'm there
-go eat somewhere.. wherever is open! It's not too bad today so I'm hoping businesses will be open again today.

Now all that stuff will take up my time until about 6:30 or 7pm. What shall I do all night then????

Well, my professor for his350L, biology since Darwin, finally emailed us today. He has assigned us 5 chapters to read from Darwin's Origin of the Species, which is written in old style English. So I'll get to battle that monster for a few hours tonight. Then also I can study for my communications class too, even though I don't think I have the right book.

Yay, A plAN! Let's see how far I can get with Darwin though. Eesh.

Mindlessly bored.

I am so mindlessly bored. Everything is closed, we've stocked up on food, and the roads are way too icy to drive anywhere anyway. So I've been sitting at home watching TV for the whole day, getting up occasionally to eat. I've finished my essays, written in here once already (now twice including this), started studying for my class, napped, and now I am still bored.

So I typed in "I AM BORED" on my google search bar and alas a site popped up for people that feel useless when school is cancelled.

www.i-am-bored.com, you are my new best friend. Pathetic, isn't it?

Oh yeah, btw, School is cancelled yet AGAIN tomorrow. I swear, this is almost like torture. Good thing the dog shelter is open tomorrow. I'll be spending all day there, thanks.

Christmas Eve and Christmas are so incredibly BORING!

Wow, yesterday was the most boring night ever. For people who don't celebrate Christmas, this holiday kinda sucks. Everything is closed, all the movies at the movie theater are sold out, and there is nothing to do but bum around at home. And the worst thing about it: starbucks is closed when I crave it the most! AHHH (This coming from a coffee addict..) So I ended up going to Bao's and we were going to bake special holiday peppermint cookies, but everything was closed so we couldn't even go out to get the right ingredients. Then I fell asleep and he sat around and we were bored out of our minds. We ended up watching TV (boring!) and baking otis spunkmeyer cookies that he had in his freezer. mmm mmm, they were good!

Anyway, today is Christmas day and I am still bored. I want to go shopping, damnit! All we're doing today is eating dinner at 6 and then going out later tonight to a bar or something. Hopefully the movies won't be sold out already at the theater.

Sigh, can't wait until tomorrow - when the malls open up again! What can I say, I'm a shopaholic =)

i need a new pet project.

I get bored with things real easily. For example, I bought a nintendo DS Lite about a month ago and now I barely touch it anymore. For another example, I played Paper Mario for 30 hours in total and I'm about to beat it but I just got tired of it and stopped playing it. I have about less than hour's worth of playing to complete the game, but I havevn't touched it since the summer.

I am bored again and I need a new project. I always wanted to take up knitting, but I never learned how or had the time really. I guess now is a good time to begin. Then I can knit things for Bao to wear, like entire outfits. He'd better wear them or I'll be really hurt. I'm going to use the ugliest yarn I can find to make him pretty clothes.. =)

I always also wanted to start cooking/baking things. However, the kitchen in my Austin apartment is plain ol' nasty. It's dinky as hell, the stove and oven are as old if not older than me, the ventilation sucks, and my sink is non-functional. There's no space for cutting boards or making cookies from scratch. Why even bother? *sigh I can't wait until I go back to Houston, where the kitchen is almost as big as my living room. Then I can cook to my heart's delight :)

I guess I could always read. I love reading and I go through books like a ADHD kid goes through adderalls. I just need to go to the book store and grab a few interesting ones.. Too bad B & N is closing in.... 4 minutes. boo. Guess it's going to be knitting tonight! Thank goodness for 24 hour super centers that sell a variety of well, just about everything you could ask for.

I'M DONEEEE! but now i'm restless.

I'M DONEEEEE with this semester! YES!! but now i'm completely restless and bored. i have nothing to do. nothing to study. nothing to work on.

i am so damn bored.

it seems as if my mind needs something to keep it occupied when i'm awake. TV will occupy it but only for so many hours. i can't watch TV for more than 2 hours anymore or else i just feel so brainwashed.

maybe this explains why i'm updating this damn journal so much. i've only had it for a day and have written 4 posts in it already. wtf! i need a good book or something.

right now i'd be starting my application for texas tech pharmacy school but they have a silly policy where i can't access my application until the hours of 8am-midnight. what the hell? what kind of dumb policy is that? do they watch us while we apply or something? *sigh

the more i apply to that school the more i don't even want to go there. that makes me not even want to go through the trouble of applying, because i don't even know if i would go there if i was accepted there. that would be a really hard situation to face..

please accept me UH or UT!! pretty, pretty please with a cherry on top??
