Not much has changed in the four days since I last updated. But it seems like it's been far longer than four days...
I haven't been outside for 2 days, would you call me lazy for that? Or can it be attributed to the giant load of homework I've been putting off? Most likely the latter, since I'm prone to procrastination.
Since it's been overcast and rainy for the entire weekend I still have not been able to take pictures for my project and I'm running out of time. I checked the weather channel web site, it's suppose to rain all through the week too. I've tried shooting the pictures in my room, but they come out lacking next to the ones that I've taken outside. I just wish my teacher could give more specific directions and guidelines for this project instead of "add more, move things around, and we'll go from there, though you'll probably have to shoot again anyway." It's extremely frustrating to try and please him when I don't even think HE knows what he wants. And it really doesn't help that I know this teacher doesn't like me as I've had him before. I just hope I can get a better grade out of him this time around.
My two astronomy classes are going well. My lecture class isn't all the challenging though, but, it's just a basic GE class, so I suppose I should have expected that? Maybe? I really need to start my outside labs... I have to do at least 8 sessions for it to get a passing grade, but again, the weather really isn't lending a helping hand to that since I have to observe the moon, the sun, and the stars. Speaking of that... I need to find a box to make my astrolabe. *sigh* I'm not sure where I'm going to find that easily...
Religious studies is a very interesting class. I've learned a lot from it about different aspects of different religions and how coming to America has caused some of the basic traditions to change. Speaking of that... I need to work on my project for that class.
Art history is art history... rather boring. Then again, I'm really not a big history buff unless it's about Egypt or Japan. I find those two cultures fascinating. I have a paper that I need to write for this class that's due in a week and a half.
I'm looking forward to spring break, but it really won't be a break for me since I'm going to have so much to do. I know it's college and all, but sometimes I really wish the work load would lighten up some. I constantly feel like I'm getting buried and falling so far behind when I'm really not. I just can't shake that feeling no matter how hard I try.
I suppose I'll end this entry with the lyrics to the song I'm currently listening to.
Reclusion by Anberlin
There's someone inside me that softly kills everyone around
They don't know they're dead to me cause intent never makes a sound
All along they found I strangled lovers who've learned from slower hands
With these eleven minutes I could teach you what I am
You're sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
You're sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
There's an art in seclusion. Production in depression
If a stranger turns up missing, this song is my confession
Tell the tales of the trail of dead, lovers learn from slower hands
Losing self in myself, inner demons make demands
You're sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
You're sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
You're suffocating me, so very hard to breathe
My mask is growing heavy but I've forgotten who's beneath
You're sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
You're sick, sick as all the
Secrets that you deny
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
