apple's hold music is so interesting

while i'm sitting here on hold waiting to make my complaint to apple, i decided to do something more productive than stalking people on facebook, so here i am.

a note on the hold music: one song was some weird middle-eastern-sounding music, the last song was the boys of summer (cover, not original), and now we've moved to some rap. i don't know what demographic they're looking for...i'm certainly not it though.

"all of our representatives are still busy" (i've heard that a few times now)

anyway, i had my two presentations today - physics and native american studies. physics went alright...it was kinda long though. definitely longer than everyone else's, but i know we got everything in. native american studies wasn't as good. my part of the presentation went fine, so that's what i'm worried about. and i told bucko that in my evaluation of the presentation, so we'll see.

tonight, my goal is to get a majority of my world lit paper done (due thursday), and i also have to do my regular physics reading quiz. tomorrow i will have to finish whatever i don't get done tonight, and i also have mastering physics due on thursday afternoon. it would be good to be able to start going over native american studies for our review on thursday, but i'm not sure that will happen. it all depends on how much i get done tonight and tomorrow afternoon.

i am waiting to hear from fr. bucko as to if he will let me take the final before thursday since i have three scheduled for that day and i have enough trouble with physics when its the only thing i have going on. we shall see.

i was hoping that posting would fill the time until someone picked up the phone at apple, but that hasn't happened yet. i'm not sure what else i have to talk about.

the big things i have to take care of this weekend will be studying for biology (that one is going to be a killer...) and writing my research paper for ethics. i have all my research, i just haven't actually done anything with it yet. i also have to do my journals for ethics, but i am hoping that it won't take too long. i need to get to work on all three of those things pretty quick though. it just seems that i don't have enough time in the day to work on everything until the day before it is due. that is a serious problem, but i can't change it.

this week has started rolling, and i am not going to be able to slow any of it down until i walk out of that physics final on thursday night. and even then, i'll have to come back and pack before i take the train home that night.

i am ready to go home. i am looking forward to snowboarding, golfing, and hanging out with the people i haven't seen in a long time. i am planning on going snowboarding with ben at some point over break. he doesn't know much about it yet except that i told him we're going. (*hold music UPDATE: solsbury hill, peter gabriel...damn good song, but i'm still on hold and that is pissing me off.*) i probably won't talk to him until i get home because he never answers his phone, but he'll know soon enough.

six degrees here in omaha right now. it was -1 when i got back from class this morning at 10:50...makes me wonder what it was when i left for practice this morning. although, i've realized that the wind usually isn't blowing when i go to practice, so it tends to feel colder later in the day. its snowing in denver right now and i am quite jealous. if its going to be this cold, it might as well be snowing.

and i'm about to hang up because i hate being on hold for extended periods of time (which, to me, counts as more than 10 minutes)...and i'm going on 40 here, so i think i'm done.

au revoir

9 days, 1 hour, 31 minutes, 29 seconds until this semester is over.
