I have the ultimate schedule. ULTIMATE. there is no other word to describe the serenity i feel now that i have registered and gotten the perfect schedule: no classes before noon. ever. on any day of the week. kiss my arse, zero period science!
I'm taking Problems in Philosophy, Introduction to teh Mind-Brain (i've been accepted to teh Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology program, and this is the itro course), intermediate french and language lab (i'm a freakin' masochist...), and How Things Work (yes, i'm voluntarily taking a physics curse course. i actually made that typo. can u say freudian breast?)
Driving W/ Dad: the master of accelerating before a red light, country music on the radio maestro, driving guru known as Dad was the first to accept the life-threatening challenge of taking me out to drive in West Hempstead Long Island. His concentration: parking ("what's with these sharp angles?") and "fluid turning."
conclusion: improvement noted.
Driving W/ Mom: The bipolar-acting, non-signaling when changing lanes, patience of a hamster on ritalin substitue for my dad took me out only once to the same place in LI, and we worked on the same things as w/ my dad. Ogre side of her personality was undetectable (read: erica still alive).
conclusion: parking notably worse. shouldn't improvement come w/ time?! but all in all, my mom said, shocked and appalledly: "you're actually a good driver."
Driving W/ Dominican Guy for $25 a Lesson: the hairy-chested, cell-phone-that-never-stops-ringing carrying, turns-out ot be Russian driving instructor criticized what my dad showed me abt turning ("don't drive w/ ure father anymore") and physically took my hands off the wheel whenever we stopped at a light (" you don't look relaxed. relax"). We drove around brooklyn for 45 mins.
conclusion: don't touch me, hairy russian dude! i'll keep my hands ON the wheel when i drive, thanks >P. He criticized my dad's driving, which is actually really good, and he didn't improve mine any, so why pay $25. I ended it like a man: "uh, i'll call you next week...yeah"
Well, basically, the answers to those questions are depressing. I get a whopping $6 an hr (oh please, wait, i think i'm having a coronary. ugh.) and i have to wear a stupid black uniform and put up w/ annoying managers who don't like giving me days off. On top of that, i'm a concessionist, and everything we sell is counted, so i can't even get free candy or give it to my friends. And on top of THAT, i have to watch a video loop of previews and other such nonsense on the video screens directly in front of the counter where i normally work. Sadly, they have an ad/video for this prepubescent boy band called Dream Street that plays abt 6 times an hr. So i told everyone: "when i learn all the words to this song, I'm gonna quit cuz i'll have been here too long." And i will quit...in abt a month and a half when i have to get ready to leave for college.dammit, i have to leave for college. how depressing. The only perqs this job offers are free movies. i just call the theater and ask for up to 4 tix, and i can see a movie at that theater, the loews theater on 19th and broadway, or a few other neighboring movie houses. this is nice, saves me $10 a pop. and those who go w. me. So...anyone wanna be my friend? :)
i love lava lamps :)
