The one where I rant about eggrolls

Wednesday, Apr. 24, 2002 – 12:09 pm

Mmmm …… I just ate a very delicious egg roll that I purchased at the Chinese Hut. I just could not pass up the $1 satisfaction of a good juicy eggroll. It’s only noon and feel that I have been quite productive today … in fact I may just take the rest of the day off! NOT. I went to both of my classes, and turned in my article review for Physics. Any time I have a big assignment or or paper that is due, I never feel fully relieved until it is entirely shed from my body. There is just a final sigh of relief when I actually give it to the teacher. Maybe it is because so many things could happen to my magnum opus from the time I finish it to the time I turn it in. It could get swept away in a flood, destroyed in a fire, or eaten by an antelope!!! Well its not my responsibility anymore!

So what’s up with everyone asking me how to make a works cited page?? The other day it was Courtney, and today Mike in my Physics class wanted detailed instructions on how to make his reference page. It started out as “Do you know how to write a citation for a source from a book?” So I began to explain to him, and noticed that he was writing everything down. He really had no clue. Seriously … we all had to take our Lit courses, and it’s not that hard. He then proceeded to ask me how to cite journals, magazines and personal interviews. Do I look like a walking reference to these things? Apparently.

After my classes, I realized the the weather for the day had turned out to be much nicer than I had anticipated, and I found myself sweating from all the layers I was wearing. It was kind of cold when I left at 9am. Nonetheless, I strolled on over to the bank to do some bankly business … carrying my unneeded coat of course. The lady at the bank was like “Wow, this is the most checks I have cashed all week and they are all from one person!” Well, most of them are for like $2 so I don’t think it counts. I also cashed Brian’s check for the Green Day concert, and he had written in the memo “Green Day, Blink 182.” So the bank teller struck up a conversation with me about the concert and we talked about it for a while. Good thing she didn’t comment on the memo from the check that Jamie Kutsch wrote me … why you ask? Because she wrote “CRACK”. Whoo Whoo .. Green Day is exactly one month from tomorrow!!! I hate months.

On the way home, I decided to skip on over to the Chinese cart/hut outside the HUB and that is where I got my very delicious eggroll. Still not as good as Heritage Days Eggrolls, but at least it wasn’t some gross mystery meat eggroll. They are just vegetable ones, so I don’t have to worry about shrimp feces being in my chicken eggroll. Chickie Eggroll … I can’t wait for Heritage Days!!!! I think the Heritage Day eggroll people also distribute their eggrolls to the food hut at the Grove City Outlets, because I ate one there on the way back from Halloweekends at Cedar Point and my taste buds were saturated with Heritage Days nostalgia. It was so delightful!!!! So if anyone is going to be in the vicinity of Grove City, PLEASE get me 12 dozen eggrolls to tide me over until July.

My apartment is very nasty, and I really need a mop to clean my kitchen floor. I don’t even care at this point. I really need to vacuum because there is hole punch remnants and tostito crumbs all over my floor. I seriously think I will vacuum today … before bugs start eating the food on my floor. And I don’t want another mouse roomate … I’d better get on the ball before they sniff me out!

So .. I just realized that I am going to have like 4 days to do absolutely NOTHING!!! My education here at IUP is practically over on Monday. Yeah, the Monday in 5 days! I have a test and a paper due on Monday, and then I’m done … almost. Tuesday I have to turn in my take home final, and I will probably get most of it done today. And then NOTHING until Friday evening. I take my stupid final for my online class that day. Its seriously ruining my life. But its all good because I can work on moving out all week, and hopefully be totally moved out by next Saturday!!!

And I cannot forget the exciting Gin Blossoms Insanity on Saturday! Things are looking up … and I feel like dancing!

Well its time to go attack Brian and drink his white out, clean, take tests, watch my Soap Opera, and then fall into a coma. I’ll probably be up and full of vitality again around 10PM. Have a great day!!!

MY ARM IS A STUMP
