Freak Out! (So Fabulous, So Fierce!)
Oct. 7th, 2004 12:07 am1 - Someone in Hollywood when I was there this past weekend was playing the original version of the subject line song, doing all sorts of random magic tricks. But it also fits to the theme of the past couple of days, and my current "mood" of sorts.
2 - Finally got The Red. The Rag, a visit from Johnny Red, whatever. I'm friggin' happy as all hell, even if it hurts, it means all that "jazz and bloodshed," and taking The Pill again, every single day for however long, at around the same time. It meant a pointless, free, and quick doctor's appointment at the health clinic today. So extra yays for that.
3 - Trading clothes? When Scott stayed over, he neglected (hrm...) to bring his pajama bottoms, so I lent him a pair that I got from Erin-- ironically enough, a pair that looks just like mine-- same size, too. They're light purple fleece with a space theme to them. Even though they're a generic Small, they're rather baggy on me-- but big on him, too. o_O Same exact pants. I guess maybe Erin stretched hers out, while I didn't (haha), so he fit Erin's pair... but I'm wearing them now. It was hilarious watching him in the same pajama pants as me. We matched. o_O What dorks we are. And today, Scott tried on another Erin hand-me-down I was wearing-- my gray fleece Nike Athletics. It was baggy on me but a good fit on him. His tight-fitting long-sleeved shirt (heaven knows why he was wearing it when it was 80+ degrees outside. I had the sweater around my waist) was a perfect baggy fit on me, so we traded them for the day. *grin*
4 - Took my geography midterm today. It was harder than I expected, and now I know I got at least 1 (probably closer to 3-5) questions wrong. X_X Bummer. I hope I still get a good grade, though... I also turned in my Media Notebook, which increased from 9 pages to 16, because Ms. Henry asked me to give more descriptions in certain places, and change long paragraphs into several shorter ones. Keep in mind that this is Verdana size 10 font, and double-spaced. Scott was surprised though, and suggested maybe that much extra length WASN'T a good thing. I await the return of my papers by next Monday... X_O
5 - Went to the Darkroom with Scott today... it's nice and cool down there, and doing an impromptu study of both elevators and water fountains (what, didn't you know I was random?), I discovered the Science 3 building with all the photo labs is one of the best for both. Icy cold water that's easy to get (some fountains have poor pressure in other buildings, like the Engineering Buildings), and a working elevator that doesn't break down or scare the shit out of you. *grin* And of course, after telling Scott I was finally on the red, he seemed quite happy (keep in mind that I normally don't tell guys that kind of thing; it was weird, but then again, he ASKED me to tell him. Most guys usually KNOW, or ask in that caustic, Stupid Boy way of theirs. "Is it that time of month or something?" JERKS.) and wanting to kiss me whenever and wherever he got the chance. o_O So I was not only highly shy around him, but tomato red, and super-flattered.
6 - When we had lunch, Scott wouldn't stop flattering me! X_X I'm actually so unused to flattery re: my looks. I know I'm vain, but I don't like FEELING so. But Scott said I was beautiful, and he won't stop telling me that every time I doubt myself. He even said the tips of my hair are the color of "amber," and really pretty when the sun shines through them... *swoon* He's such a sweetheart! Sandwiches! Rides home and to school! Gosh, I'm so lucky!! It's hard to believe how far we've come in just over a month. And yesterday, after not seeing and barely contacting Scott at all on Monday, I said "long time no see" and he said it had only been a day. But today, he said he'd missed me, and I said the same thing-- and he simply said it felt like he'd known me for an eternity, and so of course he'd miss me even if it were just a day. Some might classify that as a bit over-the-top, but scarily enough, I feel the same way. It's like we've known each other much longer than a month. I can't finish his sentences yet, or take any Scott Pop Quizzes, but... there's just that FEELING, you know?
7 - I'm finally getting the prescription thing worked out. I have my Account number and stuff set up for Prescription Solutions, but they seem to be having errors now or whatnot. But I called Mom up and talked to her for over an hour, and we got everything worked out, caught up on stuff... I really do have to call Jill and apologize for not seeing her this past weekend, as Sunday, Scott and I just got held up in Hollywood until late. :P Bad Mer.
8 - Tomorrow: CAD class and Math, which I still have to do homework for and catch up on my NYSE stock project, which entails figuring out how to make charts and graphs in my Excel knock-off, PerfectExpert. Hopefully I can meet up with Scott again for lunch. I have the feeling I'm forgetting something else, but who knows? At this point, it's me just itching to get finals and projects over with, and get my Financial Aid check (within two weeks now, hopefully). But then there's Halloween and my faboo costume idea (sorry Jimbo, you can't talk me out of it. I just need the dress and the paint.) and more Craft Nights.
Speaking of which, on my way to the Botanic Garden/Health Clinic today for lunch/appointment, I stopped by this booth in front of the USU Mercantile because I saw several girls gathered around a table and a big sign saying FREE! It's where the salespeople usually sell jewelry and stuff, so I checked out out- and got suckered into painting a free flowerpot! I got to keep the end result, which is quite cool... I decided on an astro theme, and I wrote "Reach for the stars" in gold terra cotta marker at the end. I realized after I left that I should have written (a'la MK-sama) "Reach for your plastic moon" to go along with the cheesy blue moon that I glued on the pot. Scott saw the finished product and after lunch, went to do his own-- a red, white and blue layered thing that is "unfinished" and currently sitting in his photo locker. ^_^
Anything else? Well, I'm sick of computers because I spent 6+ hours yesterday at the Collabatory, but I gotta finish WDKY11 and at least a beta of Téa KiSS. So if I can't think of what I might be forgetting for tomorrow, I'll be here. Talk to me. :)
