I really hate Microsoft Powerpoint.  No one has ever enjoyed looking at a Powerpoint presentation no matter how many fade effects are in it.  I’m just saying that because I just finished the first day of Microbiology and it appears that the entire quarter will consist of the teacher sitting there facing away from the class reading word for word a powerpoint slide while we look at the exact same slide in paper form.  She reads it…  then waits in silence for the people who didn’t buy the printout of the slides to write it down… then goes to the next slide.  Way to take a potentially interesting subject and turn it into a meeting at work that you can’t stay awake in.  What ever happened to actually teaching something.  I find too many teachers are using it is a crutch so they don’t actually have to do anything.  So far the only good thing about that class is the 3 to 1 female to male ratio (I would assume most are nursing students), and the fact that im sitting next to a freakin model.  Hopefully the lab part of the class on Saturday will be better.
The astronomy class on the other hand should be pretty good.  He uses powerpoint some too but it’s a small part.  They have these things now that look like remote controls for your tv and he asks questions throughout class and you push the button for your answer and discuss what you think it is with the people around you.  He also showed a video and did some other things to get the class more involved.  Tomorrow we are going to meet at the planetaruim on the Weslyan campus.  Not bad so far.

There isn’t much going on with me besides that and work.  I am renewing my Y membership and Jordan from work and I are going to start working out.  Well not so much working out this quarter since he goes to school too and he is busy with an internship this quarter.  We will be playing basketball on Sundays though.  Going to try and get a weekly thing going.  We played last Sunday at Sports Courts and man am I out of shape.  I’ve still got some of my ability, I just wear out too quick.  I got smoked 21-12 in the one on one game we played, 1 point for a normal shot, 2 for a 3 pointer.  It’s not as bad as it sounds, I was up 5-1 at first and then got tired and he just went out and kept making 3 point shots.  I wasted a lot of my shots going for threes and missing (trying to catch up) instead of just taking my normal shots which were going in.  I still beat him in round the world and 1 of the 2 games of horse.

I’ve got a question for the people who read this site. Why? What the hell for? I have got to be the most boring person around. I’ve looked through some of my recent posts and it’s nothing but a bunch of crap about work and how I need to get something done but never do. Mix in a few things about the last time I got drunk and there you have it. I don’t even have any good stories from when I got drunk. I certainly didn’t get laid or anything fun like that. Drink a bunch, a bunch comes out both ends, then I come home to the latest dog turd in the corner of my apartment. I am disgusted with myself sometimes.

What the hell is with all the gray hairs im getting? I don’t feel old. I can’t get gray hairs yet, I can’t even grow a good beard for god’s sake. It’s not fair. I feel old but I don’t look that old. Wait I dont feel old… What the hell was I saying? I don’t know. Diarreha of the keyboard… Girls my age assume that I’m 19 so they aren’t really into me because they think I’m too young. 19 year olds think I’m their age but I talk to them and I’m not into them because I think they are too stupid and naive. I swear I want to choke the piss out of some of these younger girls when they speak. What the hell am I going to do with these girls? Pick them up from their parents house and go to a kegger in some field with a bunch of douchebags wearing pink shirts with popped collars? Here’s another question for ya, why the hell am I so agrivated tonight. Who knows? No reason, just cause I feel like it.

Oh theres some pictures of me singing karaoke from a couple weeks ago that got put up on the “all star” bulletin board at work.  I’ll scan them and post them when I remember.

Well, it’s snowing pretty good. I am sitting at work doing nothing because nothing comes in and leaves when it’s like this. I haven’t really done much of anything since I got here and I doubt I will for the next 3 hours until I go home. It is snowing pretty good and it looks like Airport Authority has pretty much given up on clearing the ramp until it lets up a little. It’s going to be a real bitch to get home tonight with my stupid truck. The roads weren’t that bad on the way here at about 1:30 but they are really getting bad now. We had a tanker truck full of jet fuel go in the ditch on the road in here and then it went off the road and got stuck again on the little road to the fuel farm. I don’t know if the roads are just that bad or if he is a shitty driver or what. I know those trucks are heavy as hell and once momentum starts taking you one way that’s the way you are going to stay.

Went out on Friday fo St. Patricks day. Had green mixed drinks, green beer, and green shots. At the end of the night I threw up green chunks and had the green shits all the next day too. Gotta love it huh? Didn’t get much done over the weekend as usual. Just relaxed after working a couple weeks straight. I need to make a list of things I need to get done and get to it taking care of stuff one thing at a time. I will put “make a list of things to get done” on my list of things to get done.
