carved angel

yesterday went well, i think. but while looking through my underwear drawer for some undies after my shower this morning, i found my lucky underwear. (mark knows what i'm talking about. :wink: ) which i could have used yesterday. damn. oh well.

so i studied and studied the practice test yesterday. and then sohei left work early and took me to the exam. since we were really early, we went to panera and snacked on a sandwich, while i studied some more. when i got to school, i actually found the right building, though a doctor i asked for directions bordered on snarky. i wish people would realize that i can't read their mind and understand that they've had a bad day, and that's why they're being so rude. i just assume that's the case, usually, coz there's no other reason to treat a stranger that way. but i digress...

when i get to the exam room, it's almost full. it turns out some people have to go to another room for the exam. way to prepare... the prof wasn't even there for the final, so i shouldn't be surprised. and the test isn't too bad, but only some of the practice questions are on there. i think i did okay, anyway. except that about 15 minutes in, i almost passed out. this keeps happening to me when i take exams... i'll be sitting there, staring at the test, then i'll get dizzy for a second, and my head just pitches forward. then i snap out of it. i guess it's test anxiety. so i won't say i aced the test. but i should have passed it...

and when i got out, i called sohei to pick me up. and he came along a bit later, bearing a gift. he went to toys 'r' us while waiting for me, and found the jedi twilek from episode three, aayla secura. :yay: then we went to sound exchange for a while, and got some cds. a few of them are ones we own on tape, but we wanted the cds for. this is what we got:
t.a.t.u. - 200 km/h in the wrong lane (this was obviously for me, and it only cost $2, so sohei let me get it.)
ministry - twitch (own on tape)
ministry - the land of rape and honey (own on tape)
front 242 - tyranny for you (own on tape)
front 242 - re-boot
nine inch nails - the fragile
cubanate - antimatter

we're really getting into cubanate. i think that's the sound we're trying for, for junk sick fuck fest. (prolly just jsff from now on.)

and i'm listening to my t.a.t.u. cd, and some of the songs are in russian. how cool is that? i so want to learn that language...

anyway, i was supposed to finish up my other two classes today, but nothing's ever easy. i took my sport final, and got a 93 on it. so i think i'll have an 'a' in that class. the stupid movies i need to see to take the jazz final still aren't working. the profs for that class went out of the country, too, so they haven't been any help. the professors of these classes are pretty useless... if i can't figure it out by tomorrow, i'm just going to have to take the exam and rely on my scant knowledge of jazz, sans films.

anyway, i have some other stuff to finish up, so i guess i'd better get on that.
