Moving

I've only been home for a little over a week, and I'm already bored with the whole "nothing to do" routine. I miss being on campus (strangely), and I miss the normal routine of classes (ok, that's not surprising).

Before graduation, I managed to settle a lot of things. I got a job, managed to find a pretty nice apartment, and stayed on top of quite a few personal affairs. Now I have to think about moving, and I realize I have no idea what this is going to entail. I guess my best bet would be to make a bunch of lists, which still doesn't seem like such a bad idea. Maybe I'll start working on that in a little while.

I could also theoretically build my apartment in the The Sims just for the heck of it. I might end up doing that sometime after the move. Hehe. Then I could drag and drop furniture with ease! Right. Too bad moving in real life is going to require a rather large expenditure.

Went to B&N today. They have a stand set up for the Nook right in front of the entrance. It's a pretty nifty thing. I've tried the Sony e-reader before, but I think I like the feel of the Nook better. The iPad was pretty neat too. I wonder what one of the new Kindle's is like. I think I'll hold off on buying an e-reader for a while though. It'll be something to look forward to getting in the future.

Anime wise, I finally watched Hellsing Ultimate volume 3. It was pretty good. I think four is coming in the mail. Currently have Darker Than Black volume 2 sitting out on the coffee table. Probably going to watch that tomorrow night.

I can't wait for Thursday. Not only does the new season of Royal Pains start, but I want to see if the LBP store still gives out free stuff! Man, I wish I'd known about that a couple years ago. I could have gotten sooooo much stuff. Oh well. Hopefully. *crosses fingers*

And I didn't trip on stage. Yay!

Packing

I've finally gotten around to packing my stuff up for dorm check out. Blah, I get to go home and start looking for a new place to live in another state. Geez, I don't know how I'm going to do it, but things have always managed to work out in their own way. My dad said not to worry cause he and mom have got this whole "moving thing" down.

I guess this is more like a mini move compared to the big move that's coming up. I'll have to fill an apartment to myself. Probably. I don't really know if I could, would, or want to find a roommate down there.

There's something really sad about packing all your things away.

Two of the four HiFlex computers aren't working.

I think this assignment in cursed.

Netflix + Wii

I really wish I hadn't brought my Wii home last weekend. Netflix suddenly decided you could stream instant with the Wii. That would mean I could watch instant on the TV in my dorm. Which would be perfect for times such as right now.

To top things off, if I activate this awesome service within the next 7 days I get a 10% discount on my fee for next month.

Of course I'm not going home this weekend. Blargh.

Sim Heaven

I have just realized I never bought Sim Agents for the Wii. What a shame. I shall have to correct that oversight sometime after graduation. Sadly, I have not turned on my Wii in months, which means I'm still somewhere in the midst of Muramasa. That game I was supposed to finish over winter break, but ended up leaving in Clemson for the entirety of it. Yes, I am a genius.

This feels so weird. I don't feel tired because I took a nap earlier, but I know I should go to sleep. I look at my iCal and I don't feel extremely anxious. It all looks quite manageable at the moment. I can scroll back up to February, and go, "how did I even do that?"

It's 1:30 AM and I really want to play the piano right now for some reason. Unfortunately, I will just have to wait till I go home tomorrow. My roommate is strangely not here, and I'm sitting here listening to iTunes cycle through my random collection of 2000+ songs.

I watched volume 2 of Ghost Hunt today. There were six episodes. I watched the first four with Matthew sometime ago, but I finally found time to watch the last two today. They were about a boy's spirit that was trapped in a game of kakurenbo (hide and seek). Something about that game is just creepy. Not surprisingly, I really want to watching Kakurenbo the (anime) movie right now. That was pretty good.

It's my mom's birthday this weekend.

Capital Exp---what?

I want a paper moon. A BLACK PAPER MOON.
Ok, not really. I just want Soul Eater. All of it. Impossibilities aside.

One week and one day till CEP presentations.
Two weeks left of regular classes.
Two weeks and three days till the GAA conference.
22 days until my final exams.

This is going to be a crazy last 22 days as an undergrad, but I bet it's going to be quite a bit of fun.

It's late at night,
Just the music on the radio,
No one's coming and no one's gonna telephone...

There's still something nice about the 70's flashback on 102.5. It's just a great way to start off a Saturday.

This is the first weekend I've had that isn't TAGA crazy. There's no InDesign party, no Photoshopping to be done. I'm quite confused. It's kinda weird. We got people to fill up the time slots for selling t-shirts at the FIRST competition, so I'm glad I don't have to physically be there to take care of that.

It's nice to take a weekend to myself. I predict piano practice, ISDA write ups, book report re-writes, a little bit of research in the library, and a good bit of Solidworks-ing between now and tomorrow night.

There's another episode of FMA coming on tonight at midnight. Yay!

Last night was great. Craig and I played DDR. Then we had dinner with Melissa and Ben at Five Guys in Anderson. Afterwards it was back to Ben's place for some SSBB and FFIX. It's been a really long time since I've seen FFIX, I forgot just how pretty all the attacks are in that game.

Over 'n out.
