Busy Busy Bee

I'm sick.
I have more school work than ever.
And I'm broke.

Life if semi-frustrating right now.

And Tom Hanks never got back to me. Well, at least his publicist didn't. Which pisses me off. Its like she knows I'm just some student that she can blow off. Some nobody.

I get depressed when I'm sick... can you tell?

Uhg, well, I need to go get ready for class. I have a review for my charcoal drawing of a paper bag in art today. Hopefully it goes well. I'll post a picture of it later.

Stay beautiful,
M.

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained.

So I have this crazy, extremely ambitious idea.

I want to interview Tom Hanks.

For my mass communications class, I have to write a profile article on a person relevant to Las Positas. How does the Forrest Gump actor fit into that category? In 1974, Mr. Hanks went to Chabot Community College, the sister school to Las Positas.

What was Chabot like in the '70s?
Who did he hang out with?
What kinds of classes did he take?
Was he involved in their theater group?
Did he have a job while attending Chabot?

What was the two-time Academy Award winner like as a college student? Wouldn't you like to know?

Well, I'm on a mission to find out. So far, I've talked to his publicist's assistant, and she is looking to see if he has the availability.


I'm keeping my fingers crossed :)

Wish me luck!

Procrastination

Its raining, and I love it.

The smell.
The sound.
The way the rain washes away everything...

Its like a fresh start.

Anyways...
I have a statistics midterm tomorrow. Ew.
I despise math, there is no room for creativity. They give you a formula, and if you don't follow it exactly, you get the problem wrong. Is there anything else in life that is like that?

If you think of something, let me know.

Game 2 of the NLCS just started.... GIANTS BABY!

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend,
M.

I'm new to all this, so bear with me.

Hello! Its nice to meet you all.

Its 10:10 on a Saturday night, and here I am, not doing anything. Other 21-year-olds my age are out, hitting the bars, living it up, without a care in the world.

Must be nice.

Since this semester started in August, my social life has gone down the drain. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a total loner. I mean, I do things.... kinda... not really.

Ok so maybe I am a loner right now but I honestly believe it will be worth it in the end. This time next year I will be thriving at some fabulous college (fingers crossed for University of Texas at Austin).

Anyways...

I've literally been sitting at my kitchen table for the past seven hours. No, I haven't been eating. Think more along the lines of studying for a stats midterm and writing an analysis essay for english class. Not nearly as appetizing as a homemade grilled cheese and chocolate chip cookies would be.

Shoot.... now I'm hungry. I'm going to go raid the fridge, I think we have some leftover Indian food. Yum :)


Your friend,
M.
