So THAT'S where all the people reading this come from...
See you next Tuesday.
Tuesday, October 16, 2007 @ fuck I do not care
I am so fucking tired. I spent quite a bit of last night studying for my virology exam. Second test in a row that was not at all as bad as I thought it would be. Maybe my time would be better spent NOT studying so much. Because now I am dead tired.

I want to call into work today and tell them I am going to sleep. Maybe I will. I worked for the first half of my schedule, which was fine, but now that it is later in the day there is no way I want to work for the second half. I should take a nap. It seems like the right move. I have a short paper due tomorrow and I need to actually sound conscious when I write it. So sleep: ever the more attractive option.

Someone is taping an interview outside of the cafe I am sitting at. The camera is pointed in my general direction. I may be in the background of the shot, but it still makes me nervous. I hate the way I look on film.

I have gotten over how I look in pictures--that is okay with me now. But when I am being videotaped? Ew. Fucking ew. I really cannot deal with it.

This is a particularly hard (and awkward-sounding) entry to write because I cannot type apostrophes. For some reason, typing an apostrophe brings up the Quick Find dialog box in Firefox. (I tried to type out "Firefox[apostrophe]s Quick Find dialogue box", but I was foiled once again.)

Oh, hello! The camera guy is pretty cute. I did not notice that before because I was so preoccupied with how I look on film. How self-involved. I make myself sick.

I quit this bitch. Later, folks.

I can't, either.
I still haven't taken pictures or videotaped myself yet. Not properly anyhow. I don't even have the equipment. ;D No camera or anything. And no one else can before I do it myself! Oy...>.<

Um...
I don't remember. Oh, wait! Something about a hungarian? girl that the murdered man had brought from Hungary?. And...I didn't actually finish watching. *sweet innocent smile* Heh. Oh, I wanted to, I just...couldn't.
Haha, don't worry. I won't turn in THE murderer. Your secret's safe with me. ;D

I never liked how I look in the pictures or videos or even how I sound.. I stay away from cameras all the time..

Take care till Tuesday!
