wednesday's child

i'm DONE! no more notes for the rest of the year! which is only four days, but still. it's a refreshing feeling. if only i had remembered that i had an essay to write, that's worth 20% of our exam. good thing david told me, or i'd be sol tomorrow. now, i don't know if i'm gonna actually do it now or in psych tomorrow, but at least i can say that i didn't forget, i'm just procrastinating.

we took apart our computer this morning. we wanted to put the scsi card from my mom's old computer in the new computer (well, this computer) so we could use the scanner. needless to say, my mom's computer was an old computer. as in my dad's old computer that he used at his law office. yeah. that's like '94-'97. i tell you i don't know how that thing still works. anyway, since it was such a dinosaur, the scsi card didn't fit into our nice new-ish dell. it'll either cost around $100 for a nice new card, or $120 for a nice new scanner.

we're buying the scanner.

so my dad's gonna put an ad in the thrifty nickel to sell our scanner and the computer that he just bought two weeks ago. he didn't think that no one would use it once he put word perfect on this computer, so he bought it. now he's selling it, along with the monitor, and all that other old stuff.

which means money for scanner. and maybe a printer. and maybe a digital camera. oh the possibilities. but of course, there's still those pesky things known as bills. damn.

we have one full day of school left. i thought i was doing very good this weekend, homework wise. all i have to do is a whole book worth of notes, right? wrong. i have a trig review worksheet that i don't know if he's gonna pick up tomorrow. i have a whole history review that i know my mom's gonna quiz us on. and then there's this whole english essay thing i didn't know i had to do for tomorrow.

that's what i get for being optimistic.

i have to study for 3 of my 6 classes for exams, given that we already took our exam in compsci, english you can't study for, and i don't even count guitar as a class. that leaves trig (only because i wasn't paying attention the past month when he was introducing us to calc), psych (like i ever pay attention in that class), and history (i'm CERTAIN i didn't pay attention this last quarter in history. what did we study? some war?). so yeah.

oddness. i'm not ready for school to be over. bah. i want to be with my friends this whole summer, but i know i'll probably only see alex maybe 5 times the whole summer, and not see anyone else until book day next school year.

i think i'm gonna be going through friend withdrawals like i was last year.
