I'm on midwatch this week, which is from 10 PM to 7 AM. It's okay, because I have a big room with a kitchen to myself all night, and I can watch movies and read books in between the rounds I have to make ( Read more... )

I did see those bands. O.A.R. was phenomenal and most definitely hard to follow up by any band. Their twelve-minute long live rendition of Crazy Game Of Poker was fantastic. They didn't play the song that got me into them, Black Rock, but that was ok. Cake played well, and the lead singer was a sarcastic asshole. I love that ( Read more... )

Haha, fuckers. I get to see O.A.R. and Cake in San Francisco on Sunday - FREE! Yes!

I graduated and got promoted yesterday.

Yeah, I failed. Listening, Reading, Speaking - requirements are 2,2,1+. I got 1+,2,2. I'd feel like a shithead, but it's a new test. Ours were the first three classes to take it.

Our grades are up. I don't know my scores yet, but I'm wating for a friend to pull on her shoes so we can go down to find out. I think I failed - only three people in one of our sister classes passed. Sharkey failed listening. Fuck this new test, and fuck them for making us take it.

Merde.

I have multiple bands for every letter of the alphabet except "X." This is a crisis, and allows me a few happy moments in filling a hole. And then what do I do in that vein?

Give me music suggestions that don't sound like Fall-Out Boy or Death Cab.

I'd better be getting out of here on time. I'm told I'm the best speaker in class because our teaching team leader has never heard someone sound so Chinese before, but my fucking listening - Anyway, I take my final test (reading) on Wednesday and graduate Thursday of the following week.

I don't care how hard you think you are; anyone screams burning to death.
