As time goes by

Mood: content  Music: La La - Ashlee Simpson  Reading: A lot, lol

Shiny new domain! Yay! Hello Salvation came to me whilst I was doing my reading for Medieval English Lit. So Dr. S, thank ya. I sorted out Nothing but Song as my portfolio. I think it looks pretty good if I do say so myself V. me.

On another note, I cannot believe it’s midnight right now. I think this is the first year that the time change has made me loopy. Every previous year I’ve adjusted pretty well. But every time I look at the clock, I keep thinking it’s hours earlier than it really is. Boo. I took a nap today and I think that’s what messed me up too. Whatever, at least I feel better. Everyone at work was so zoned out today. It was really quiet. All the shows are coming in next week.

It’s spring break right now, as far as I’m concerned, lol. Doesn’t technically start until Monday. I had a couple of midterms before the break. I don’t think I did v. well on either one. And let me tell you, I hustled trying to cram for them. I’ve never crammed for anything in my life. I usually pick things up pretty quickly and get tolerable grades. Unfortunately for my grades this term, studying is the last thing on my mind after I get home from work. I used to be able to handle studying for school. But this semester, I just can’t.

I’d rather go to school in the morning and work at night. That is way easier for me. Work takes more out of me than school does.

Ugh. At least it’s halfway over! Gotta look at the bright side.

Speaking of the bright side, I only need 3 more classes and they’re offering them all in the fall!!!!! I’m on track to graduate, my friends. It’s so close, I can almost taste it. That knocks one more thing off my mental “to-complete” list. Next, paying off my credit cards and car loan. Then CALIFORNIA!!

My co-workers asked me what my plans were after I graduate, and I said, “goin’ back to Cali.” And that set two of them off. They started rapping the LL Cool J song, “Goin’ Back to Cali.” It was great! Then of course, J teased me that I’ll be back in Vegas after a few months. I was kinda hesitant to explain my reasons for going back to them, but the one thing I blurted out was I need to be by the ocean. Like I said before, NOTHING in the world beats the ocean, as far as I’m concerned. I don’t care what I have to do, I will make my life in Cali work. *crosses fingers*

I saw Watchmen the other day with Corinne, and the only thing I can’t get off my mind is Patrick Wilson’s epic ass. Siriusly, not even playing, it was EPIC. Though brief, lol. It really is a lot to chew on and makes you ponder when you leave. That’s prolly why everyone’s been bitching about it. Anyways, my review is up at Kiss My Sass, if you wanna read it.

I didn’t realize what a pain in the butt transferring registrars was. That’s prolly why I avoided it for so long. But NameCheap’s prices and their promo code, “switch2nc,” was too good to pass up in this economy. The code’s only good for March 2009, so if you want to switch, no time like the present!

GoDaddy jacked up their prices pretty severely. I’ve lost money on some of the domains I’ve renewed for clients at American Princess in recent months. Not good. I’m pretty much free from Godaddy now. Just need to transfer one more. GoDaddy’s interface is really nice-looking but it takes so long to load. Plus it’s a little clunky to purchase one domain. So many upsells. I respect that though, since we’re all in the business of making money. But it gets to be tiring after awhile, yeesh.

I splurged hardcore yesterday. I got my tax return and it was a welcome sight in my bank account, lol. I socked away half of it for emergencies. Then I went to Target for some supplies. After the movies, Corinne had a job interview at Fashion Show, so I ended up hitting Icing (picked up some cute earrings and necklaces) and Sanrio (red envelopes for Chinese New Year and some bad-ass, straight from Japan chopsticks) while we were there. I’m feeling buyer’s remorse for a couple of items, so I’ll return them next week since I have nothing going on. I shouldn’t say remorse, more like “I wish they did what I wanted them to do so I don’t have to go back.”

She also wanted to check on a job she applied for at Caesar’s, but I missed the turn for the parking garage there. We ended up parking at the Bellagio and going to the Bellagio Botanical Gardens first. Then we spun back and went to Caesar’s. The FAO Schwartz there was finished with their revamp so the sweets counter was open again! I bought almost 2 lbs of gummy candy of all kinds. Me and my niece N are fighting over them, lol. Then we went home. I wanted to get sushi but I was so tired from walking around all day. It ended up getting pretty late. It didn’t help that the movie clocked in at nearly 3 hours, whew.

I should get to bed. I’ve got an early day at work tomorrow.

?: “Any exciting plans for spring break?“
