Pitiful Weekend

And it started Thursday. Talk about NO free time at all. Woke up Thursday and went to class. I came home and did homework and studied for a few hours and then went to my night class. I got home at around 11 (yay for 4 hour night classes). So there goes Thursday. This morning I get a wakeup call…from my boss. He says, “I have good news and bad news.” I ask him what they were, and he replies. “Bad news is, you’re gonna have to work tonight.” I never work Fridays, but i guess once in a blue moon is ok…. I ask for the good news, “You’re still working Saturday.” Don’t you love it when your boss has a sense of humor?

So after class today, I’ll have about two hours to do any schoolwork and then get my ass to work. Most likely, I will be there until midnight or 1am. So much for going to bed early tonight so i can wake up early tomorrow and go to……

Traffic School! Boy oh boy, this weekend just keeps getting more and more exciting! Lake County was created specifically for me to get tickets. I’m serious. I’ve never gotten a ticket ANYWHERE else in the world, but I’ve gotten three speeding tickets in Lake County. Hell, I average 90 on the highway in my home county, Cook, and I always go 10 over the speed limit on roads and I’ve NEVER gotten pulled over. And then there’s Cook county where the cops seem to be deprived pedophiles who take out their frustrations on kids they can’t get with. I got this ticket in February, for going 10 over the speed limit when i was coming home from work one ngiht at 2am. The cop was really nice, he even said, “You were going 53 when your radar detector picked me up.” Funny, I don’t have a radar detector. And the Greek smartass comes out and i say, “Gee officer, I’m so glad you’re not a detective, cause I don’t HAVE a radar detector. Maybe you should ask Watson for a second opinion before making accusations.” He turned bright red, I mean, it was night out and all he had was his spotlight on us, and I could see his face steaming. Instead of giving me a ticket, he made me wait 45 minutes and THEN gave me the ticket. LOL. Luckily, I could do traffic school online, so i don’t have to drive to bumblefuck.

After doing my traffic school, it will be time to go to work again. Hooray, there goes Saturday. And then there’s Sunday. I’ll be able to do all my work in the morning (I hope). But in the afternoon and the rest of the evening, I will be with my family cause its my Easter. Oh yeah, i have a Calc quiz on Monday that i have no clue what i’m doing with the material. Woo hoo.

I’ve noticed that my posts have been rants. So i feel that it is fair that i should warn you whenever a post of mine is a rant. So here it is:
WARNING: This post is a rant.

Class Bites

I’m ditching Calculus. My teacher is straight from hell, so instead of sitting there and listening to her chastise us on how we have to memorize every formula in the book by heart (compared to every other college professor, who lets you use notes), I’m gonna post on here. That makes me highly productive, if you think about it.

So its a typical Wednesday. I was waken up this morning by two little monsters arriving at my house at 7am. Luckily, I managed to fall asleep again until 8:30, but one of them decided that sleep is for old people, and insisted on slapping me till I woke up. Thats right, slapping me. If she wasn’t almost 3 and wasn’t my little cousin, I’d have punted her across the room. Every Tuesday and Wednesday my mom babysits my two little cousins. Its fun, but at the same time my house is a zoo. Makes me wonder WHY I decided to transfer back home….

I have less than 3 weeks left of school, and then I get a two week vacation! Then I go back again for summer classes. I’m hoping that my parents will go to Greece for the summer, like they did last year. I’d have the house all to myself again for three months…not that I’d do anything BAD….:p I promised my Italian teacher I’d have my final project done by tomorrow, so she can proofread and correct it. I better do that tonight, cause I haven’t started it yet. Thank god for Alta Vista and its Babblefish translation thingy.

In web design news, i’ve finished the new site for Galaxies Radio. I’m just waiting on Cadina to send me the DJ info and schedule so I can update it and upload it to her site. Its nice how that worked out, because i was too lazy to do my final project for my Web Design class, and now, I can simply submit the Galaxies Radio site cause it meets all the requirements. So thanks Cadina for the inspiration :)

In music news, i’m back at it again. Its been almost a year since i last mixed a CD of any sort. So i’ve dusted off my software and started downloading music again. Its gonna kick ass, a nice House mix.

In Greek news, Elli Kokkinou and Christos Dantis are coming to Chicago on May 13. Its on a Friday, so I can go. I was so pissed that i couldn’t go to the Ploutarhos concert cause it was a Saturday and i was working. Gonna tear it up this time!

Well, I’m ranting. Something i do quite often on these things. I’ll update again when i feel that you no longer have eye strain from reading this.

My First Post

It’s been a little over a year since I last did this. Participating in a community blog that is. A year and 13 days to be exact. I am a Xanga refugee, my Xanga lasting for well over a year itself. Due to severe drama and loss of interest, I killed my Xanga. I was tempted to kill Xanga’s hamster as well, but I didn’t have the guts. So then I started up my own website, which I just use for personal storage and stuff. I attempted a blog there, using B2Evolution, but it didn’t get anywhere because nobody knew it existed. So enter LiveJournal…

I’m tierd, late, and I’m lazy. Not much of an intro post, but its an intro post. More about me in my profile.
