4:44 pm	Finally getting on track. Been too lazy to do much of anything lately, but today marks the first step on the path to full adulthood. I finally got my learner's permit for driving renewed, so I can start practicing again and take the driving test soon. Hopefully I won't booch it this time, as I now know about 3-lane highways and center turning lanes. Time to grow up >.> Current Music: Anathema - Harmonium (2 Comments |Comment on this)

11:07 pm	I'm doooooooooooooooooone! Halfway, at least. Tonight was commencement for the class of 2009. It was a long ceremony, lasting about two and a half hours officially, totaling up to about three and a half hours if you include the pre-ceremony stuff. The first thing I noticed when I got to the other graduates from the College of Engineering was that my tassel colour was wrong; instead of gold, which I had, it should've been orange. I felt a bit annoyed at that, but no biggie. The ceremony itself was spectacular, especially the long-ass fireworks display at the end. After that my parents and I went to McAlister's Deli. Great place to eat, I highly recommend it. Now it's storming outside. Thankfully the ceremony ended a mere hour or so before it started, so we got lucky, as it was beautifully overcast for most of the ceremony. Thanks to the clouds I didn't end up baking in the sun in my black cap and gown. Pictures will come soon! Current Music: Devin Townsend - Sister (Comment on this)

4:57 pm	Spring 2009 schedule MWF 11:30-12:30 - CS 4053 001 - Computer Graphics - Felgar Hall 319 MW 12:30-13:20 - MUNM 1022 008 - Beginning Guitar Class I - Reynolds Performing Arts Center 3260 TR 16:30-17:45 - CS 4273 900 - Software Engineering II - Carson Engineering Center 441 I'm only taking 8 hours this semester, which is for several reasons. First, I only need Software Engineering II to complete my CS major. I'll check to see if I need anything to complete my math minor, though, so my schedule may change. Second, I'm going to see if there are any job openings available for me so I can work on earning some money instead of just spending it. Also, the guitar class is so I can broaden my horizons a bit >.> Last semester, baby! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :D:D:D On a sidenote, my guitar teacher's name is Larry Hammett. I'm going to put the over-under on how many times people ask him if he's related to Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammet at 10 >.> Current Music: Devin Townsend - Notes from Africa (Comment on this)

8:06 pm	Hey Amanda, remember when I said I had two cats? Yeah, I was lying ^_^ http://s92.photobucket.com/albums/l37/OklahomaMama/Rufus%202008/ His name is Rufus, and my dad found him and took care of him for a couple of weeks before we brought him home on 9-20-2008! Edgar and Raven were a bit standoffish for awhile, but they're growing to like him, or tolerate him at least. My mom decided to surprise me (and I must say, job well done!) when I got home to see if I'd ask "who's that?", which I did, verbatim :O Awwwwww so cute! ^_^ Current Mood: ecstatic Current Music: Scar Symmetry - Morphogenesis (4 Comments |Comment on this)

5:25 pm	Good news and bad news. Yesterday I didn't have to take my Operating Systems final because of the ice storm. Unfortunately I gotta take it on Saturday, which is when I was originally planned to move out of my dorm. I'm going to ask my RA if I can move out on Sunday though, so yay.
