All That I Can Say

today is alan's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALAN!

so maybe life isn't all about being happy. maybe it's more important that you're content. who knows.

yesterday was fun. my group completed our final presentation in our systems analysis class. i think it went pretty well. there is this dude in the class that sits up front and always has some shit to say about everything the teacher or anybody else says. while we were trying to fix a slight problem in our presentation before class started, that dude was there and he kept commenting on what we should do and how we should do it. first of all, he didn't know what the hell the problem was in the first place, so how can you offer advice when you don't know the whole story. second of all, shut the hell up. so he started saying how we should have done this, and should have done that. then one of my group members just looks up from the computer and says "how bout you stop being such a smart ass" and then goes back to working. it was funny.

we got a 24.5 out of 25 on that presentation. i don't think the teacher likes that dude either.

after the presentation, i planned to study, but instead went to supreme's and chilled. i was so tired, but i didn't go to sleep because i was too busy playing minesweeper.

last night was the terrace hill buck auction. matt from res life came out to see how it was gonna turn out. i am proud to say i'm a part of this community. the program went smoothly yesterday and it seemed people were enjoying themselves. we gave away good prizes too... umbc stuff (t shirts, sweatshirt, umbrella, mugs, etc.), fleece pillow/blanket sets, really nice cookie jars with pre-packaged cookies in them, a coffee set, smores kits, body lotion/wash sets, dvds, cds, and a 13" tv. there was more, but i just can't remember right now. all you gotta do to earn more money is to attend programs. we'll see how it goes next semester. i anticipate an even greater turn out.

of course i wanted to go to sleep after that was over. the auction lasted about 2 hours. sheesh. but i had to do jen's hair real quick so she could have crinkles. i didn't mind too much though. if i wasn't sleepy, i wouldn't have minded at all. that's what friends are for.

we were gonna go to the store afterwards, but i chose to pass out in my bed instead.
oh yes... my bed. my lovely bed. did we talk about how i changed my room around? and how it's a brand new room with brand new possiblities and brand new curtains. i love it. you should come see it. well... call first because i need to filter thru the requests. :)

and my throat hurts. but i have thera flu to take care of that. i wanna take it now to relieve the pain, but i wil surely fall asleep at my desk and that will be the end of that.

2 more tests to go before this semester is done.
