Almost forgot to blog in here. I am 4 days behind schedule. Here's a summary:
Thursday:
Last day of classes! My friend and I were betting that people would only clap for the professors they truly liked but I suppose out of obligation and reverence, each professor got their moment of glory for those 5 minutes. I especially enjoyed my last class, Asian American Labor. Professor F.R. was adorable. She wanted to take a class picture to remember us by and for us to see how much we've changed since college. We got the senior lecture where we're set to do great things in the world. She's one of the few professors that I have a soft spot for. She's genuine, attentive to every student's needs, and is in a way, motherly. I respect that she goes out of her way to teach things differently. We're getting our copies of those photos tomorrow!
Friday:
No work or class for me so I pretty much studied. And by studied I mean skim the bindings of my books that should have been opened that morning. I recall sleeping in...
OH YEAH! This was the day that I suddenly realized I had a paper due today and scrambled for 8 hours or so. Procrastination not at its best. I'm never doing that again. I usually finish a paper days before it's due. I've never felt such bitterness for Freud before. And Freyd. This topic on repression drives me a little insane. There's a lot more I'd want to argue, but then quote searching for everything became tedious. I was 2 hours ahead when I turned in the paper *sigh of relief*.
It was late so Lewis and I decided to head over to the Spectrum to the Apple store for his headphones and possibly catch dinner at Veggie Grill. Never made it to dinner there. Everything closes too early in OC. We had high hopes for the Diamond plaza because well, it's run by Asians. Not to be racist, but they run businesses a lot different from non-Asian business owners. The ramen place was open 'til 11! Sweet, sweet ramen. I need to remember to Yelp about their eel ramen, which is what I'll do after I finish this post. We went over to the bakery and got some cream puffs and honey cake, too :). Delicious.
That was the more pleasant part of the night.
After we left the bakery we heard a woman scream bloody murder. People started to crowd and weave in and out. She was on the ground crying and yelling at this guy that I assumed to be her significant other. Some things were said and she hit him with her purse. He tried to pick her up but it looked suggestively rough. She wasn't wearing any shoes and was running away from him. At one point he ran after her and had her in a headlock. She was just screaming and crying. She kept running until no one saw them. No one did anything until Lewis called 911. He reported it and hopefully the police caught up with them. We were really scared. I know things like this happen all the time, but actually witnessing it was awful. Domestic violence is not the way to go.
Saturday/Sunday:
Actual attempt to study was a success. I plowed through so much statistics I'm down to half a lesson left! I'm not yet stressed out about finals week, but I know I'll be begging for mercy after tomorrow. Wednesday and Thursday are going to be my horrifying days. It'll be over then! I'm looking forward to going to work and reading a good book.
Watson and Holmes aren't doing too well. One has a light shell and the other has a pyramiding one. I've attempted to fix it. The cuttle bone in their tank is not doing so well. They just let it sink. At least Holmes is eating the new food. Watson seems uninterested.
Today:
Working 'til 5 today. I have all four subjects of notebooks around me and my boss just told me we don't open until 1. As my supervisor put it, "It's blissfully quiet in here." It's going to be rewarding at the end of this week, I'm looking forward to finally going home.
