transomwhiplassOk, so today I woke up at the obsene time of 7:30 so I could go work the APO bakesale. Yeah, it took me 40 minutes to get dressed and out the door. Pathetic. It was really cold though! I was all wrapped up in my scarf and matching gloves when I skee-daddled onto the street to find some people dressed in t-shirts and this one totally ho-esque girl with a micro skirt, tank top, and straw platform sandals. However, her hair was porn star huge so maybe she was keeping in the body heat that way? I don't know, I felt like a wimp but I felt really cute and colorful. So I walk 20 minutes across campus to the bookstore. No one. Ack. I wander upstairs and downstairs meanwhile buying some tracing paper for my architecture project in the art supply store in the basement. Still no one there. Well I was freaking cold and tired so I tromped over to Starbucks and fed the corporate satan $2.50 for a grande hot chocolate. Fuck it, it was too early to be self-righteous. Still.. nobody was there. So I tromp on over to the benches across the street from the bookstore in front of the class that I had in 2 HOURS and waited grumpy and lonely. Eventually Brandi showed up with cookies but she had class so we went over to the APO office and found out no one was there either. We ended up waiting for Anthony to get out of Japanese. After he left on an errand and Brandi with him on her way to class, I tromped back to the bench with her cookies.. again alone. Anthony came back and set up the table and "tabled" with me since I was the only person signed up for that time slot.
Har har. We sold like.. 3 things, well, well he bought a toffee bar. Yeah so it was mostly just sitting around talking about crap. I asked him about why he was taking gender studies and he explained and read me passages from his really densely worded textbook. Wow, well.. more power to him - those passages were so esoteric. I'm totally a visual learner - these passages didn't even paint a freaking picture. Honestly, I can handle anything with pictures and that includes classes involving graphs, diagrams and even poetry (begrudgingly, though) because it's descriptive. Freaking dense, informative paragraphs do nothing for me. They are as impotent as the old guy writing them. Oh zing! Still, I applaud anyone who can plow through that stuff. I have the attention span of a fly and the short term memory of a goldfish and with my powers combined.. I .. AM.. totally unfortunate.
The rest of the day was dull. Classes and a pledge meeting. Woo? Oh, I watched this Japanese movie called "Audition." It was supposed to be SO gory that like a third of the audience leaves in the middle of the movie. Ok, so the first hour & twenty minutes it's the slowest freaking plot ever. The last 25 hardly make up for it; there is a torture dream-within-dream sequence. The torture involves a little eye stabbing, torso prodding, and this guy totally losing a foot but that's about it. Seriously I was expecting TOTAL dismemberment on camera based on this things description and boasting. YAWN. I think we are going to watch the Japanese version of "The Grudge" on Halloween. Meh, I'm making alternate plans. "Ringu" wasn't that much different or better than "The Ring." "Audition" was nothing special - that movie where Kathy Bates takes that dude into the woods is more horrific. I've only seen in on TV, what's it called.. "Obsession" I don't know. IMDB-it. I ate my entire box of Pocky waiting for the movie to get good. Now I are sad and pocky-less. ;_;
I'm tired and grumpy. I'm going to sleep it off. I have an Economics midterm on Thursday and like 4 chapters to read tomorrow. Good stuff.
