Welcome to a new semester

School is up and running again. My break flew by so quickly and I was just starting to finally relax too. :) This semester I’m taking two classes: 2D Animation II and Intro to Criminal Justice (CJ). Ya, I know, I know. I said I wasn’t going to take an animation class this semester but I just want to get my damn degree done with. I’ve got over 90 credits at this college and no degree to speak of. OK, so technically it’s a Certificate of Computer Animation and not a degree and most of my credits have nothing to do with animation…but I digress. :) Honestly, I don’t know if taking animation this semester is the right thing for me, because I feel sort of burned out right now, but I’m going into it with a positive attitude. I’m hoping that I’ll get something else to add to (and actually put together) my demo reel. Also, Francis is my professor this semester and we know what to expect from each other so I’m not so worried about it. My CJ class, on the other hand, is not so easy to figure out....

I figured that since she was a female doctor, she could give me a rough "guesstimate" because I didn't know if it was a "female thing" or my bladder or what. Well she didn't do anything except for tell me "I don't do pelvic exams" and "you need to see your ob/gyn." Um...since when did internists become so specialized that they won't deal with certain parts of the body? I made an appointment with my ob/gyn but I couldn't get anything until Friday. It didn't matter that I had been in some serious pain for three weeks 'cause they must have been so busy that they couldn't squeeze me in. *rolls eyes* Well, the pain started getting bad again that afternoon that I said "screw it...

Tropical Storm Zeta?

I was just going through Yahoo! News and saw this article about T.S. Zeta. It's amazing to think what about what a crazy year we had with hurricanes in 2005 but to see this storm not only forming but still around? Geeze. We had a total of 27 named storms, 14 of which became hurricanes. Makes me glad I don't live down south.
