My Daily Fix

This is like the 3rd or 4th day straight that I've blogged.

I'm proud.

Anywhoo, what to blog about today.

For one I do not have any ounce of motivation to do any of my homework. I wish I had actual projects to do, something concrete. When I only have reading, its way too easy just to push it down the road, saying "Oh I'll do that tomorrow." Well that tomorrow becomes the next day, and the the next day becomes another day, and then finally its the day that you have to have finished the reading, and you don't have it done. Ugh.

Such is life.

Next on my list (Yes I have a list of what I would like to blog about...) is I don't understand how people can't find my house. Really it is not that hard. Ok. I know my house after a down sloping driveway, and it is hidden a little bit by all the trees in the summer. But in the winter, you don't have to worry about that. It just frustrates me because we always get calls, "WHERE IS YOUR HOUSE!?!?"

And then I'm like did you not follow my directions. If people were just to look and maybe use some common sense to figure out that when I say its the last house on the right before the big turn, and if you pass another stop sign you've gone too far I really mean that it is the last house on the right.

BUT NO. Its just too much to ask. So what would normally take like ten minutes to get picked up, turns into like half hour because people can't figure out where I live.

Ok.

I'm done.

I feel better. And if you are wondering what brought this on, was because someone called my mom asking where our house was. And it took her 10 minutes to explain it.

Why do I always....

...Take a Spanish class every semester. I'm always regretting taking it when I see the huge amount of work that I have to do.

For example

I have to write a one and half page paper architecture. I have been writing (staring) at my computer screen for a total of two hours and I have about 3/4 of a page. One and a half pages doesn't really seem a lot, and it normally isn't, but it is a lot when you have to write about architecture and it's historical impact...
It took me nearly 20 minutes to figure out what the directions said in the syllabus.

Ugh this semester is a total bitch, and its not even the third week.
And of course instead of working on the paper, I complain on my blog.

And moving on.

I want this semester to be over. Enough said.

Until next time.

Its hard to believe...

...That I've been bloggin' since September.
Give some breaks in between the boring, random, quite uneventful life of Ryan Gallagher has been chronicled for about 5 months.


HOLY SHIT!! Where has the time gone?

Always a good question.

One Hit Wonders

I'm listening to She's so high, which is definitely a one hit wonder of the awesome decade of the 90's. But hey, its a good song. I mean he even has the 90's haircut. Which would make sense...

Anywhoo...

I wish 90's Saturday cartoons were on. I hate to say that "kids these days" don't know what they're missing....because I am only 19, hardly an old geezer myself, but, its true.

And moving on.

Today is Saturday. Which means I work in approximately 4 hours and 7 minutes. Well actually 2 because I can clock in 5 minutes early to work. BIG BUCKS RIGHT THERE.

Hopefully work won't be such a debacle as it was last Saturday. I'm praying for a good shift.

I really should be starting my Spanish paper. And reading for philosophy. and reading for psych.
and paper for college writing. But why?

Exactly.

Until next time.

Hibernating Squirrel

What to blog about...
My backspace button STILL isn't working and it is making me mad.

Our newspaper (UMD's) had on the front page an article about how Sen. Klobuchar came to UMD and spend the day touring our exciting lab facilities blah blah blah...

What really got my attention was the byline or tagline or whatever line you want to call the caption under the picture. Under further examination, the caption read "Sen. Klobuchar looks on as she sees a hibernating squirrel".

Um, Excuse me?

1. I didn't know squirrels hibernated...
2. WHAT THE HELL.

Why would our state senator come up to our university to watch a damn squirrel hibernate. HOW IS THAT EVEN EXCITING!?
And why can't you just go outside and find a squirrel? Please come to my yard, and you'll find thousands. You can observe them in their natural habitat, and watch my dogs try to kill 'em.

Anywhoo... I would think that if a senator is going to come up and view our science facilities that you would him or her some really cool chemical reaction. Just anything cooler than a hibernating squirrel. Really...

And while I'm on that topic, instead of paying big bucks to observe a squirrel, how about we use that money to pay towards tuition. But of course not...

I'm really sure observing a hibernating squirrel really has its benefits........

All right, I am done ranting about that.

Its a Friday, which makes me really happy. And I don't have tooooo much homework, so life is good.

Well that's my blog post. Until next time.

RG

I can never remember what day it is.

...But now I know it is Thursday, because I checked the date on my laptop.
Anywhoo...

How is my week going?
Pretty blah and nothing too exciting has happened this week.
I have had classes, I tutored on Tuesday, worked yesterday, and now I am here, bloggin' before my first class of the day.
In case you wanted to know, my stupid enter button is not working. AND ONLY ON THIS WEBSITE. wtf.
It's really bothering me. But I digress.

So what do I want to blog about? Nothin' really.
It's actually really balmy and warm outside. And by warm I mean 23. But hey, I'm a duluthian, so I can take this type of weather.

I really wish I had something really important to blog about, but nothing in my life reflects such a thing.

So this post was a whole a lot of nothing (like they usually are).

But!

 

Case of the Fridays...

It's a Friday. Which means it's nearly the weekend. Which means more sleep. 

Again this vicious cycle has begun yet again.

Anywhoo...

What to talk about.

MY PHILOSOPHY CLASS.  The class literally boggles my mind. I find it interesting, but holy sheeett....my brain is fried after that class. To make it better? It's at 8 in the AM. Just lovely.


I don't understand why I take 8AM classes....I hate getting up so damn early. But here I am taking another class that early and complaining about it on my blog.

Anywhoo...

What are my plans this weekend? I work the whole weekend. Ugh...


And thinking of money doesn't even help me want to work anymore...


Well I think I'm done blogging.


Adios for now.

Getting back on the bloggin' (band) wagon...

Hello virtual world,

Sorry for the lack of bloggin' lately! But alas, I am here and ready to rant and vent about my (boring, but sometimes amusing) life.

So. Where shall we begin?

Well second semester of college started yesterday!

And so far.... so good!

Classes are fun. It's going to be a hard(er) semester, but looking forward to it.


Ok now that I have the school info out of the way, now it's time to vent about how I really feel.


I AM SO EFFING TIRED. But understandably because I was up until like 2:30 watching the stupid Australian open. I've always been a fan of tennis, but last night I could just not stop watching it... I watched Venus Williams' match, and she nearly lost! So of course I had to watch the entire match (which ended up being 2.5 hours) to see if she won, which she did. But barely.

 


So I lost two hours of sleep because I couldn't not know what happened in that match. Typical...


And it wasn't even like a championship match or anything like that. It was still the second round, and she nearly lost to some chick was who/is rated 97th in the world...


But I digress. So yes I am tired, and instead of going to bed, I blog about it. Logical huh?


I should be doing homework so I don't get behind...but bloggin' is so much more interesting.


What else can I talk about?

Hmm..I think that's it.

Until next time.


RG.

Wisdom teeth....

SUCK. 

Enough said.

First Sunday of 2011

Exciting huh? Not really...

Random musings:

I hate the price of textbooks-it really pisses me off.
Tomorrow will be my 10th straight day of work.
I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled out Tuesday.
I really hate the packers.
But I don't really watch that much football.
I'm tired.
It's 10:00


This was another pointless blog.


Night.

Day 1/365

Well, the first day of 2011 is nearly over, and what did I realize?


I'm horrible at keeping my resolutions, and its only day one!


Writing in my blog is the only resolution I have kept so far.


Today:
1.) Drank pop
2.) Ate junk food
3.) Swore way too much


But, tomorrow is a new day, so another second chance.

So, what else to talk about. I know this sounds really nerdy, but I'm definitely ready for school to start, yet I still have two weeks left!


I really do enjoy being in classes, and other than my writing class, I'm really looking forward to my classes this nest semester.


And then next semester, its Spain!! HELLS TO THE YES.


Well my computer is being a bitch, so I'll write tomorrow.
