books

tyler, my parents, and i watched wanted and it was actually pretty good. it was way corny and over-done, but i actually enjoyed watching it. there was a lot of blood and bad language, but the overall idea and picture of the movie satisfied me. i don't like movies like that at all, but i actually found the main character(wesley - james mcavoy) to be pretty hot. =D

so tonight i came home from work and went straight to work on dad's desk. he has been stressing about mexico, the pool, his desk, bills, and a lot of stuff. so i decided to take the initiative to get that cleaned. after i started to organize all of the bills and then start to pay them and record where and how everything gets paid. that way when i move he will be able to do it all on his own without me. i think it bothers him thinking he will have to do it all but we will see. 

i got online and did some research about all of the books that i'm missing for chemistry. i figured it all out and got them ordered, and then i called matt and asked him about his mat142 book. he's going to sell it to me, which is awesome. so now i'm officially done. except that i have to get my mastering chemistry and some other login, but i'm going to wait until the teacher talks about it. i got my syllabus from my NTR150 teacher. the course is going to be awesome. it's a bunch of different types of dietitians speaking, and basically we get 5  points a week for going to class, and we have a project and a paper and that's it. there's no final or anything, it's just listening to the guest speakers and learning about all of the different options for our degree. i think it will be awesome to hear about all of their experiences and stuff. i e-mailed abigail today and asked about whether or not there was any word on a 3rd housemate and she said not yet. i wonder if it will just be melanie and me?

i still have to do laundry and pack for mexico. i talked to john and i was like "do we work wednesday or friday?" "no." "okay, then i'm going to mexico." so that wasn't as bad as i had expected. i worked like 4 hours and got a bunch of the fedex stuff done for him. tomorrow i will get the rest of the stuff done, i just got really dizzy and really tired and unfocused and had to get out of there. i have to go get my laundry ready to wash. tomorrow mom and i have a lot of places to go. we have to get insurance and i have to get some things on my list and look for my cinderella toaster(hopefully it's still there). 

i really want to see becoming jane.

spore

i'm so impatient. i ordered my copy of spore on friday and it feels like it's taking forever to get here. i even paid extra to expedite it(only because expediting it still made it a lot cheaper than paying full price). i already started making a bunch of cute creatures and stuff with the trial download copy that i have to hold me over. but it's not nearly as entertaining as the game will be. plus when it comes i get to unlock all of the other add-ons for the creatures, and then they will be super cute and original. i think this game is going to be really fun. from what i've heard from other people talking about it, i think i will enjoy it. it will give me something to do when i'm bored at my dorm at night. because i can't always be studying, i need a break sometimes. =D. it's probably going to show up when i'm in mexico, though, so i won't get it until we make some time to get our mail from the post office. =(. it's alright though, because the wait makes it worth it, and i'd much rather go to mexico than hang out here and play. i can play anytime, really. 

tyler and i finished watching journey to the center of the earth a few minutes ago. it was actually a good movie, and it kept me entertained. and i actually liked the ending, that rarely happens lately. it was one that i wouldn't mind seeing again. we still have wanted that we need to watch and return before we leave, too. but he has to be at work tomorrow morning, so he couldn't stay any longer. it sucks when he has to leave, lately. i'm trying to get as much time in with him as i can before i can't have too much. but i know that we will do fine without each other.  

tomorrow i have to go to work sometime. i haven't talked to john so i have no idea what time he expects me in. i need to get some stuff together for mexico, do some laundry, oh, i need to go to the bookstore at asu west to see how much all of my books will really be and then get my aunt's 10% discount. it's not a lot, but it's a heck of a lot better than paying the $950 that it looks like it's going to cost full price. i ordered my books for my women in history class, and the main textbook came, and i think that class is going to be very interesting. i think i will really enjoy it a lot. we will see. well i'm going to bed. my eyes are heavy, and that's a good sign.

p.s. the cardinals won today! i can't wait to see them in the playoffs!
