"We Don't Eat"

I think this is the first time I've felt good at the end of a Monday.

Following the Super Bowl (I'm not talking about it... I'm upset as a Colts fan, but as a fan of karma New Orleans really deserved something good for a change), I spent the entire night taking care of Jenna and working on my German take-home test and my website, and finished just in time for a half hour nap before my 9:05 German class. German went swimmingly, and I managed to survive most of the class without being horribly lost, which is the first time that has happened this semester.

Following that, I hung out in the telecom building to finish my assignment for my last class and... APPLY FOR THE DCI INTERNSHIP! It felt good to finally send off my resume and cover letter, and I could not be more excited for this internship. It's absolutely perfect for me, so I'm absolutely going all out. Hopefully they like me enough to interview me and eventually pick me, which would basically make my life. You really have no idea... An entire summer of watching drum corps and working behind the scenes, flying off to the big shows in cities I've only dreamed about, just to watch more drum corps. And I'll get to work at finals in Indianapolis, which will be amazing.

Woo, back to my day... Which seems so dull after that little rant... In my second class, the professor was sick, so the AI took over. He began with this: "Well, I got an e-mail from Norbert at about 1 am and then I realized, 'Oh shit, I have to do lecture now.' So... I'm gonna get you out of here, mmkay?" The lecture was literally seven minutes long, and he probably covered the material just as well as the normal professor would have done in an hour and fifteen minutes.

The short class allowed me to finish up a nice chunk of my assignment, which allowed me to go to my math class for what I believe is the third time this semester. We got our tests back and I got an 82/100, mostly because I'm retarded and they don't give partial credit. In a somewhat-lengthy problem, at the very end I stupidly thought that 3x3 was 6 instead of 9, so I canceled out the last fraction wrong, and my wrong answer was one of the choices. And then I subtracted wrong on another one and was 1 off, so there was another 6 points.

But at least I made it to class, and I'll be in relatively good shape for the mid-term, which is good news.

After that I finished my assignment just in time to SIGN THE LEASE FOR MY APARTMENT! I'm so pumped. And nobody is fighting me for the single room, so I'll finally have a room to myself, which I've wanted for the last three years. It'll be the smallest room, but at least I'll have my own space and I won't have to worry about someone else's messes.

Audio production was really fun tonight. We're doing music editing now, which is right up my alley. Our next assignment is to mix a song that he's been hired to mix, so it's not even out right now and we just get to play with all the different tracks in Pro Tools. Then after doing what he wants us to do with the song (so he knows that we know how to do certain things), he said we can get five extra points for just making our own remix of the song. And I know exactly what I want to do with it because there's this really pretty piano/cello bit that gets completely buried in the song, and I really want to build my mix around that.

Overall, I'm just really excited about today.

But now I have to read. Oh well, good things can't last forever.
