the linux users club is so exciting

well, i spoke too soon last night. not long after writing that, i began coughing a lot. then i woke up with a sore throat that has gotten progressively worse throughout the day. i feel lousy, and my stomach uh... isn't happy. i read also that the white spots can be related to strep throat... but i didn't think that was it at first. now i guess i shouldn't rule that out.

i don't know. whatever it is, i should probably go to the doctor.

i'm also going on four hours of sleep. i got up at 11:30 today, so i could go out to the mt. hood maywood park campus to take a test for the word processing class. it was a multiple choice test with 35 questions. it took about 20 minutes, including waiting for someone to come along and put in the password for the test.

then i went home to do the second part of it, where i had to actually create something with ms word. i looked to see how i did on the multiple choice part... i got 25 out of 35. i think that's the worst i've ever done on a test.

after i finished that, i had to go out to the school, to the main campus, to meet my teacher for the dos class. last week, i was unable to finish the assignments on time. of course he's nice so he let me turn them in late. the problem was that the assignments are turned in online, but since time had ran out, they weren't open anymore for me to put my answers in. so i had to go out to the school so he could unlock the assignments long enough for me to put my answers in.

i was to meet him at the "linux users club" meeting. in other words, i had to walk into a room full of geeks. well, ok, maybe it wasn't a room full...it was more like five. but they were definitely geeks. i somewhat jokingly call myself a geek, but i'm not... one of them. they were like, your stereotypical geeks. even watching them try to communicate with each other was just awkward.

i watched as one guy stood up, "well," he said while looking at the floor, "i'm going to go."

another guy sitting at a computer looked up at him and said, "bored?"

"yeah," he said while staring off into space, "we all just sit here doing our own things at the computer. we could do it at home."

haha! i love it how he stands up and says this out loud during the supposed club meeting.

"it's hanging out," the other guy replied.

he stared down at the floor again, "well, i'll be back next week," he said with a sort of a sigh.

was that a brilliant conversation or what? of course, i'm probably as awkward as them...

this guy asked me, "are you here for the club?"

i shook my head. sorry guys. i don't think any (supposedly) cute girl is gonna be joining your club anytime soon.

eventually the teacher came over to me and he unlocked the assignments for me, and then i got out of there. after going home, i had to clean the litterbox and sweep the floor. i really needed to clean the ferret cage too, but it had gotten too dark to see. i then took a shower, and now somehow it's already past 11 pm. now i'll do a bunch of homework until i go to bed... and have another busy do tomorrow.

and all i wanna do it just lay down and do nothing.
