Sniffling Poster Child: Journal 1/12/06
ugh. sooo sick.
I don’t mean to turn this blog into a big whine-fest but…Â Â waaaaaa!
My Dad was just talking to me the other day about how he’s never gotten really sick since he quit smoking. I think it jinxed me. So maybe he was talking about really major debilitating sickness and not just the achy cold/flu I seem to have now. But still, now I have to go thru my little studio and clean all the germiness out of it…. get a new tooth brush…. wash the sheets…. wipe down my keyboard, mouse, etc.
The coffee I’m sipping right now isn’t even enjoyable. All the taste buds in my mouth seemed to have called in sick as well.
But I suppose it’s best to get all this out of the way now. School starts on Monday (3 days!). I’m 90% annoyed by this fact and 10% thrilled. It’s been a long long long road to this stupid degree. Nearly ten years ago I started working towards it. In those ten years I dropped out three times; once for financial reasons and twice for military deployments. I’m like the poster child for that saying, “If at first you don’t succeed, try try again.”Â
Anyways, I got deployed in 2005 with only 3 courses left for my bachelor’s degree. Ah the irony. Enlist in the army for school and they rip me away from it. This is my final push towards that degree. I have images of myself dancing around a bonfire naked while feeding my stupid diploma to the hungry flames. That’s how bitter I am about it all.
And which 3 classes do I need in order to graduate? Back to back to back British Literature courses. Dear lord! hahaha..  Â
