today's rating: 8 - not as bad as it could have been
you'd think i'd have it all figured out by now another year of college in the books, and i should have graduated by now. either that, or after 5 years of being in college you'd think i'd have a definite plan of what i want to do.....but i don't work that way. i'm more of a "ya never know" kinda guys...i've extended my tenure at Georgia Tech to complete all the pre-med requirements. am i going to get in to med school? will i ever be a doctor?...ya never know...so i might as well take all these classes now, just in case.
i've been this way my whole life. never really knowing where to go, but rather going along with the flow. for me, after high school comes college...it's just what you're supposed to do. but now i have all these choices: get a job, get a fun job, get a real job, or go to grad school...technically i could do nothing, but even that gets boring...
so here i am, almost a third of my expected life gone by and i don't know what i want to do...but don't pity me...i'd rather have all these choices than none at all...

today's rating:ugh...need sleep...how's that for a rating?
so i stayed up all night studying for my two finals i had this morning: ethics at 930 and music composers 1880-present at 11. well, basically i stayed up all night reading 200 pages of music history...not the most stimulating read i've ever had. and ya know what? IT WAS THE BIGGEST WASTE OFTIME!!! i spent so much time preparing for the multiple choice composer background section of my final, of course the professor would change the format and exclude the part i spent the most time studying for. instead, our final was based on 20 questions via "Name That Tune." he played 20 second snippits of 20 pieces of music spanning 200 years....ya think the odds were stacked in my favor? yeah....riiiiiight.....
yeah, so i was up til 7 reading music stuff...well, actually just til 430. i took a study break then, and, praise be to God, ESPN was rebroadcasting the Stanley Cup playoffs on ESPN and ESPN2....and people say there's nothing good on tv in the middle of the night. um, i don't really have a lot to say about my ethics test except that it was about porn, drugs, animals, and world hunger....hmmm...it was actually a pretty interesting class.
so after staying up all night, ya know what i'm gonna do now? if ya guessed sleep, you'd be wrong. i hafta take a shower, and cut off my massive burly sideburns and shave my goatee, cuz i have a job interview this afternoon.
did ya ever get that feeling? when you work at something for a long time, and then it's over, and you don't have anything to do....where you can do anything at all, so you ride this really huge high? yeah...that's me right now...
no sleep so somehow i'm supposed to take a nap before my interview after taking a shower and riding this awesome energy burst? there's no way i'm ever gonna fall asleep. i dunno why it happens, but whenever i don't get any sleep, i start feelin good...like really good...i'm all jumpy and excitable and play my music loud and wanna just jump around and bump into walls and stuff.....and i was watching the Eco Challenge on tv yesterday, and the lead team hadn't slept in 3 days...3 days!!!!! and they're out rock climbing and hiking and rafting and walking on 5 inch wide ledges and stuff. apparently, this guy on their team started hallucinating and they had to talk to him and tell him every move to make as they RAPELLED DOWN A 3000 FT CLIFF. this guy has the same control of his body as some drunk frat brother, and he's rapelling down a mountainscape? whew...talk about bein a little out there....
um, yeah, so i've wasted enough time...need sleep...no music o the moment cuz all that's in my head is classical stuff....
speaking of which....while i was studying my music stuff, there was this huge storm raging outside. and i was listening to Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique Movement V: Dream of Witches' Sabbath....yeah, that's the kinda stuff they want us to know for our test....anyway, so i was listening to this piece, and um, i got scared. it was weird...i actually was scared, like someone was gonna jump in my room and wreak havoc and do bad things to me....if you listened to the piece, maybe you'd understand. yeah...whatever...
anyway, it's bedtime for bonzos......lata

today's rating: rather productive...i'll give it a 8.642
i used to write in this thing everyday....guess i'm too busy now. or the novelty has worn off. that happens a lot with me, the novelty wearing off. the point at which something new and different becomes commonplace and ordinary is often difficult to pinpoint. but if you worry about these little details, you miss out on the important things in life.
ya know how people say you should stop and smell the roses? i did that once and i got stung by a bee. so now i just stop and smell the grass....especially fresh cut grass...ahhh, the days of summer are approaching
so i finally have a job interview. i've been bumming around, wasting my time since november. so these april showers are bringin job interviews with their may flowers. and what's better is that it's actually something semi-interesting. the company cryogenically freezes human tissue and develops tissue engineered implantable devices...whatever that means. apparently, i'm interviewing to be a lab aide assisting the dissection technicians. now i dunno exactly what it entails, but i think these dissection guys harvest the tissues (cardiac, vascular, orthopedic).....from dead guys? i hope so : )
you're a bigger nerd than me, so i hate you - some guys take their job a little too seriously. maybe he has pocket protector envy or something....
random four sentences from nearest book: Long ages ago, the wod somnambulists was given to the people who walked in their sleep. The resemblance between hypnotism and somnambulism is so great that the somnambulism is used for both, otr at least that is the definition given by Richet. Hypnotism is called artificial somnambulism, according to Poincelot. Professor Bernheim calls somnambulism the seventh degree of hypnotism. - Axel Wayne Beacon's Course in the Science of Hypnotism
music o' the moment: Fenix TX - All My Fault
