Feeling more normal

I'm almost back in knitting shape - which is great, because I want to get started on my HPKCHC assignments as soon as possible.

I have the theme from Happy Days stuck in my head. I guess it's because I've taken to watching Fraggle Rock at 9:00 and Happy Days at 9:30 whenever The Ellen Degeneres Show is a repeat - which it has been for the past few days. *is irked*

I started reading Fruits Basket the other day, and it's pretty neat. I'll have to put it on my birthday list.

Oh, and I started geometry yesterday. So far it's going good. I'll probably do some later - I'm avoiding polynomials ;) It's actually a pleasant change from polynomials. I'll probably finish my algebra booklet soon, I just need a break from it. Then I can move on to more interesting algebra :)

Drinkin' pimple juice

Actually, it's pineapple juice, but my mom and I like to call it pimple juice. lol.

So today has been somewhat eventful. We went to the lab because Mom had to have a blood test done, but there were, like, 25 other people there, so we had breakfast at the restaurant in the same plaza. I had a waffle with a side of breakfast sausages. It was yummy. And filling, since it's ten after eleven and I don't feel hungry. I may not eat lunch for another couple of hours.

I tried to do some polynomials, but I may have to redo some of them, because they have mixed symbols - a plus and a minus. I hate those kinds of polynomials, because you have to figure out if it has to be positive or negative. And usually, when you times a positive by a negative, you get a negative (see? I remember at least one of the algebraic principles!), so if you're times-ing the factors at the beginning of the polynomial, you'd wind up with all negatives - but, at the end you have to have a positive in there. So yeah... re-writing must be done before I can say that the polynomials are finished. eep.

My Labyrinth fanfiction is coming along nicely. I've also started a crime story that I wrote down in a notebook a few days ago - basically, I wrote down a paragraph, the plot, and a few character names in the notebook, and today I started it in Word, and it's taking shape better than the paragraph I'd written in the notebook.

So, I don't think I'm going to youth group tonight, because I think Dad's working this evening. I'm not too bothered, though. As long as people don't bitch me out for missing three meetings, I'm happy.

The weather's nicer today. It was chilly this morning, though - about 32 degrees farenheit - so I wore my ski jacket. There's still patches of snow here and there, but not as much as yesterday.

Writing!

All I did today was write, listen to 80s music via Youtube, and muck about on my computer. I tried to doctor a photo in Photoshop, but it didn't work out well.

Anyways - writing. I got quite a bit done. I started some Harry Potter fanfiction, and I worked on a story that had been resting for a little while. And I've found that 80s music helps with writing - I logged onto Youtube to put some music on, and in the 'reccomended videos' was the video for Billy Idol's 'White Wedding'. I love that video. It's so cool, and weird - like a Tim Burton flick. After that I saw a video for 'Rebel Yell' in the 'related videos', so I listened to that. I had noticed that in the 'White Wedding' video's related videos was the video for 'Don't You Want Me' by Human League, so I, being paranoid, checked to make sure it was the same one that AJ had put up on her Facebook page, then I listened to that, too. Awesome :)

I'm such a music geek :p

So. I didn't pester Dad to help me with Human 3D today. Maybe I'll ask him tomorrow, after youth group. I hope I can get to youth group.

I didn't do any algebra at all :p I did some polynomials yesterday, though.
