I'm so over this heat...

...amongst other things. I like walking around Houston with my camcorder, but with the heat as it is, I'm not having much fun. I'm too busy worrying that my film is going to warp and my deoderant is going to fail. If you haven't noticed from my last several posts, I'm very concerned with deoderant and the lack of it. Whatever though.

Our dorm fountain is broken again. It apparently has all these settings, and someone thought they'd be clever little ducklings and set the fountain on "four story gyser". I give it three more hours of this before the damn thing breaks again, and I'm left having to explain to guests that no, we don't have a hole in the middle of our courtyard, and yes, we don't seem to be as clever as Rice University about sabotaging water fountains. STOP SCREWING UP THE FACILITIES IN YOUR OWN HOME, PEOPLE! Go fuck with HBU's settings.

I'm also kinda sick of school. I think I probably have panic attacks everytime I try to close my eyes to sleep. I'm paranoid--Oh my God! Have I remembered everything?? I should have focused more on school this semester. But other things were too alluring, and now I'm paying for it in lack of sleep

My finals schedule is as follows:

May 10 (3:00-5:30) Theology

May 11 (3:00-5:30) T.V. Production

May 15 (12:00-2:30) Philosophy

May 17 (8:30-11:00) E-government

May 17 (12:00-2:30) English

That oughta be fun!

QotD: I Should Make A List

What do you always forget to pack?
Submitted by quornflour.

Tampons, my deodorant, and a hair brush. As a result, I always have to go out and buy those things, and then bring them back to my home to join my collection of dozens of tampons, deodorants, and hair brushes.
