Might be a long one. . .

Hello all. I don't remember the last time I updated this, but it feels like a long time ago. So I'm done with school until January 25th, which is when the spring semester starts. MY LAST SEMESTER? Yes. My last semester. Here's what I'm taking:

  • 1st Semester Chinese - I wanna take another Asian language. Korean is not offered and I don't want to learn Tagalog, so I guess the next best thing is Mandarin right? Maybe now I'll get some decent service if I ever go to China First again. Fucking bastards don't refillmy water . . .
  • Rise of China Since Mao - My senior capstone class in which I will probably have to do a 20, maybe 30 page paper about who the hell knows what.
  • Existentialism - I've always wanted to minor in philosophy but never had the time to, on account of failing stuff and whatnot. I hopefully won't regret it.
  • Central American & the Caribbean - Just another whatever history class.
  • Tai chi & Badminton - I just wanted take the maximum amount of credits and these are both one credit each. It gives me an excuse to not work on Thursday.
Yes. I will be that guy who has to bust ass his last semester. But before it all starts I have this winter break to prepare. Besides work as much as I can and save money, I plan to do the following this break:

  • Take advantage of my Netflix account that mom got me for a month! I need documentaries!
  • Read two interesting lookin non-fiction books. Malcolm Gladwell's "What the Dog Saw: And Other Adventures" and James Loewen's "Lies My Teacher Told Me"
  • Clean this house from top to bottom. This includes the tub.
  • Try to run or do something physical as I don't think I've ever felt more out of shape than this semester. Not sleeping, eating hamburger helper all the time, working too much, broken bicycle (-_____- ) <==my fat head.
I know I had more but I can't remember right now. Probably take pictures or something. Here's some pictures that I took while I was supposed to be doing some kind of school work last week. They all have a shutter speed of 15 seconds or more. I think the street one was 60 seconds.

  1. Nice pics! And nice painting! I'm guessing it's Nozomi chan's? (since she is the only one in your friends that I know who goes to art school... No, I'm not a stalker.)
