SithSpit!

That's not Rose and Company, they're meant to get the Moroi to grow balls, in more ways than one, by now!!!

I'm bothered.
Neighbours are playing music loudly and its horrible stuff.

That used to happen to me all the time. The neighbors were druggy people who liked to party so they had lots of LOUD and annoying parties. The same people came over to our house one time when they were drugged up and fell asleep right in the middle of a sentence.

My family was always the loud ones on the block, but we reasonable. I mean once when i was 14 i had a party.. in the afternoon. 3 neighbors called the cops on us and it was like 12 in the afternoon.

Right now, i'm being whinny and walking around with a pout. My semester at college starts back up today. I have night classes today 3-9pm. After two-three months of freedom i don't like the idea of being stuck inside a classroom all night. Plus, i have my sign language class today and I'm rusty because I haven't had anyone to practice with while on break from school. The worst part I have classes at 9am tomorrow. I have no idea how I'm going to pull that off. So I'm worried and stressing but mostly just pouting. lol. I really really hate my schedule.

A 9pm finish tonight and a 9am start tomorrow? That just sucks! with travel and prep time added to that you'll only get like 6 hours sleep.

Ugh. That doesn't sound pleasant at all. I hope my schedule doesn't end up like that when I go to college. It mgiht though because a lot of orchestra and band type rehearsals are in the evening. What fun!

It's not bad the first week cause we don't really have assignments yet. But, it's wicked terrible in getting ready because I just got home at like 1030pm and my dad wakes up to shower and get ready at 11p,. So i dont have to shower again now. And in the morning my mom showers then my brother back to back so 6- 7 am the bathroom is occupied. I have to leave at 730 am to be at school by 9am. I'm trying to figure out where to squeeze a shower in. I mean i showered this morning but i hate leaving my house without showering. I usually shower in the morning to feel refreshed then again at night to groom and be clean and stuff. But as the semester goes on and work piles up .. sleep is out of the question.

Usually people dont have messed up schedules like i do. Only if you let the advisers pick your classes for you. It's just my major classes like sign language is ALWAYS at night. Another class i need is bio and they only have two open sections, one at 9 am and the other at 9 at night but i can't take that one because it's during my sign language class and there is only ONE sign language class. Oh my i had my sign language class today and i'm soooo rusty , it took five minutes and 3 people to figure out what my prof was signing to me... she was asking me about books and reading the point in showing different signing styles like formal and informal.. out of now where she asks if i know Sarah Palian ... i was like whattt who is thattttt and what are you talking about lol. Can't wait for my last semester at this college to be over .. then i have a break before going back to a senior college. Oh joy. lol.

I think that's pretty cool that you do sign language as a subject though. Is there a reason you took it up, like a deaf relative or something or were you just curious and really enjoyed it? I think it'd be kind of tricky to follow, but that might just be because I've never done sign language before so it looks difficult from my point-of-view. Better get talking to yourself again Tasha so you'll be less rusty.

Well my high school had an integrated program for the Deaf. So i was always around kids who signed and their interpreters. And my high school, being a small charter school, only offered two languages- Spanish and Sign language. So i took sign language. But all we really did was learn the alphabet. I started my college career at a Four year university and they required 4 classes of a language and I wasn't really interested in anything else. I had to transfer out of that college because i failed the math entrance exam. I figured my current college i would just be there a semester to take math then transfer back to my four year school. So along with math i took general education requirements for my previous major of women studies and took the first sign language class thinking i could get an e-permit ( allows you to take classes at any cuny college) to keep taking the sign language classes once i go back. But i failed the math again and so had to stay for another semester. So i just stayed at the school altogether changing my major to deaf studies. Sucks because instead of graduating with a BA in 2010 i will only have an AA. But, i do love sign language it's jsut really hard to learn in you dont have people to converse with everyday. it is hard to follow. I tend to know my professors and classmates style so always understand them. I meet someone new and have no idea what their saying.

That's awesome though, even having that options. I don't think my uni even offers sing language as a course and if it does it's definitely not well known. My high school only really offered French and Spanish and after about yr 10 (I think that's like sophomore year-level) you don't see much language participation at all. Anyone who wanted to continue languages of any type had to do it through TAFE (Technical and Further Education) centres.

I only got to pick between French and Spanish at my HS. i would have chosen sign language if given the choice. I took spanish although now that I look back i wish i'd took french instead...anyways I hope your schedule isn't being too hard on you Tasha.

I haven't been up to much the past few days. My allergies are acting up and I've got a stupid cold which sucks cause I've got plans for a girls night out saturday night. We were supposed to go out last weekend but had to reschedule last min to this weekend. But with the way I feel and sound idk if I'll be able to go out. And I sooo desperately need a break from mommyhood lol. I haven't been out with the girls since November I think i deserve 1 night out *sigh*

I found out that Gossip Girl would be loads better, if the entire cast underwent the Agoge[The Upbringing!] in which they live the lives of proper warriors, instead, in hopes of cleansing the fail out of the cast.

It's 1am and while normal people are asleep... I'm wide awake. I could be doing something productive like cleaning my bathroom for when relatives arrive this weekend... But I couldn't be bothered. So I'm eating ice cream and watching Toy Story instead.

Toy Story 01 and 02 are cool, but i wonder if Toy Story 03 will be even better, Ashley?

It will be!!! At least, I'm pretty sure it will be since Pixar's other movies are all pretty great. Toy Story 2 was a decent sequel anyway. High hopes that Toy Story 3 will be just as good. I'm sooo gonna see it when it comes out!! lol I'm a huge Toy Story fan. I know practically the whole dialogue to the movie since I watched it so many times as a kid.

The only thing that makes me sad other than the fact that there will probably never be another Toy Story sequel ever again after this... is that Jim Varney, the voice actor for Slinky Dog, died during the production of Toy Story 2. They had to replace him with someone else for Toy Story 3. I think this new guy will do an alright job... but it's just not the same. However, I'm really glad that Disney/Pixar made an effort to get all of the original actors back. I mean, Woody wouldn't be Woody without Tom Hanks. And yeah. The cowboy's my favorite.

Edit: Even more awesome!! The original voice actor for Andy from TS1 and TS2 is back for TS3!!
I'm probably the only one that's excited by this.

I just hope that Toy Story 3 will give the trilogy a meaningful bang, a nuclear bang, if they can manage[if they can go further than just that, go for one that's more powerful than just an A-Bomb!]

The storyline had better be epic and worth the wait, for that matter, because its not like them to have such a long wait only to be lacklustre, in the end[that didn't work for Transformers 02, for the most part, clearly!]

Isn't Toy Story 3 going to be in 3d? Also I hear they are making sequels to Cars and Monsters Inc. idk how I feel about those...

Aw, Hope you feel better Wilda and get to go out for girls night!

A new Toy Story? That means I have to buy the first and second one before the prices sky rocket lol. I love animated movies, Toy Story wasn't my fav but I'm still a little excited about it.

I always always hated the fact alot of the animated movies are just that, a single movie. So Cars or Monster's Inc having a part two... i feel really great about that... as long as the original actors are used for the main characters.

I always thought that Monsters needed a sequel.

I sort of like that Monsters Inc. has a sequel planned, but at the same time I don't want it ti ruin the first one.

Yeah but I think since Pixar will be behind it that it might actually be good. I mean, Toy Story 2 was the first Pixar sequel and it didn't suck. And they've gotten all of the actors back to do the voice overs, so that shows that they really make an effort. I mean seriously. The kid that did the voice of Andy in Toy Story came back for *both* of the sequels. Pretty impressive.

I'm looking forward to a Monsters sequel. Like I said, I always thought it needed one. As long as John Goodman and Billy Crystal come back... it'll be awesome.

Yeah, pixar does do a pretty good job at making movies, so I do have faith in them. I'll just be slightly wary until I actually see the thing.

Yeah can't wait to see Toy Story 3. I'm really hoping the Monsters sequel happens though.

Right now I'm planning a prank on my mom. She apparently hates turtles (I didn't know this until just the other day) and when I showed her that ThisIsWhyYou'reFat website... she gagged at seeing the bacon turtles. I thought her reaction was hilarious. So I'm planning on making that picture her desktop wallpaper. She's gonna be really mad and disgusted... *evil cackle*

Oh man that is just wrong but soo funny! lol

I guess a Monster's Inc sequel wouldn't be so bad as long as the original people are doing the voices. I just can't imagine Sully or Mike with different voices. that would ruin it completely. but Cars? I like Cars btu I don't think it needs a sequel. they could have chosen a much better movie to do a sequel to imo
