What's with all the plaid?

Is today National Plaid Day or something?

I'm guilty of the plaid... but it was a spur of the moment decision this morning. Sir Cuteness also wore plaid (a darker shade of blue than my shirt) and the cute math guy wore plaid... as well as about 30 other people that I saw today. Totally random... or was it?! Dun, dun, dunnnn... it's all a conspiracy; we're all plotting to take over the world. 

World Lit was a bore, but what else is new? At least there were more than 9 people in class today... and/or it wasn't cancelled. My mind wasn't on World Lit, though. I was running a tad late this morning... but apparently, I had perfect timing! Brief interaction with Sir Cuteness FOR THE WIN!!! Have I mentioned that he was totally adorable? Well, he is. I can't help it... and apparently he can't help it, either. I love totally random moments. I really do. I know it's not going to go anywhere, but I'm liking the verbal interaction. That's all that matters, as far as I'm concerned. Constant smiling and eye contact just wasn't going to cut it. 

But yeah, back to boring World Lit. I think our instructors illness has gotten worse. He talks a lot lower/softer than he did before... and classes keep getting shorter. He handed out the prompt for our 2nd and last essay... all I can say is "Yikes!" A big, fat, yikes! He's letting us pick our own topic/junk to write about. Um, no? I'd rather him just tell us what to write. In English this time. He also handed out readings for the final couple of weeks... the readings end on May 7th. That's 11 days before the semester is supposed to end? Though he did mention something about printing out poetry... so maybe that'll last us until the final day? If not, my semester ends on May 7th, baby!

So yeah, the plaid thing was spur of the moment. I was going to wear one of my Def Leppard shirts... today is April 23rd... Steve Clark's 53rd birthday would have been today. Steve is (and will forever be) one of my favorites. I wear Leppard shirts on this day every year... but I couldn't today. I was already half way to becoming a wreck. I posted a pic on Facebook and changed my profile picture to a picture of Steve... that's all my heart could take. Normally, I would also jam to old school Leppard all day... I did that today, but not really by choice (at first). I did NOT want bawl like a baby in the library. I decided to put my iPod on shuffle (there's like 8100 songs on there?)... and the first song? "Gods of War" by Def Leppard. Geezus. Goosebumps central. And yeah, I bawled like a b*tch. Zero shame. Oh, and the next song after that? "Wasted" by Def Leppard... Steve wrote that song. From that moment on, I decided to just make it a full Leppard jam session. I had constant goosebumps for well over an hour... with tears in my eyes... people probably thought I was on something. Again, no shame. Steve Clark Forever!!

Math class. I'm really going to miss these people. Well, not all of them... but I will miss about 7 of them. Just like last semester (in that case it was like 4? haha!). I don't know what it is, but I like the people in my math class more than I do the people in my English class... just like last semester (with the exception of 2 or 3 people). Probably because of a lot of the English majors in our classes have been stuck-up ass clowns. 
Math class ends (for the majority) on May 2nd... May 7th is the day where you can come in and check your final grade, as well as your grade for the last test (Ch. 6). If you've passed you can leave... if you're not at a passing grade, the final day is May 14th. Either way, we all get an early vacation. Yeeee!

OH! We took a hellacious test last Thursday and I totally thought I bombed it... 100%, yo!! Miraculous. Absolutely miraculous. Two 100% scores in a row. It's a miracle. 

The San Jose Sharks are an absolute buzzkill. Mhm. Not all the time... but a good majority of the time. I don't even think they've clinched a playoff spot yet? Tonight's their last home game of the regular season... and I believe they have another game or two on the road? Yeah, they better clinch a damn playoff spot.  

Songpop awaits.

*EDIT* (10PM) The San Jose Sharks are headed to the playoffs!!!!!! ♥

A peanut butter sandwich.

So.. um... 


I HAD LUNCH WITH THE CUTE GUY!

 The end.

Mhm. I'm serious, the Universe has been on my side this week. He got out of class a tad earlier than usual and had a bit more time to spare. I was sitting in the library about to eat my sandwich, when all of a sudden I hear: 

"A peanut butter sandwich tastes better when it's eaten outside..."

He gave me a look and motioned for me to come outside with him. "Lunch" only lasted about 10 minutes or so, but yeah... BOOM! Does a peanut butter sandwich really taste better when it's eaten outside? Heck yes.

He had to go and do his thing and I went back into the library and watched "Mr. Belvedere." I have an exciting life. Ha!

The math take-home test scores were posted today... 100% babyyy! My head wasn't on straight when I took that test. I took it the day before we returned from Spring Break... I still wasn't 100% better from that 2-week illness. I think it's safe to say that I have an 'A' in that class... miraculous.

The Sharks. Still on a winning streak. But most importantly....

WE HAVE SCOTT HANNAN BACK!!!!
YESSSSSS!!!!!!

I know people are saying he's no better than Douglas Murray... but he's Scott frickin' Hannan, and I've been wanting him back in a teal jersey for years. The Sharks also acquired Raffi Torres... that should be interesting...

I love this day.

I repeat: I love this day!!!


World Literature. I did not want to go this morning but I did anyway. (I'm feeling a lot better, btw. Having spent 99% of my Spring Break sick.)
He handed back the atrocious midterm. I was totally convinced that I had bombed it. I guess it was worth 50 points... I got a 39. 78%. However, he decided to grade on a curve, because "some people did really good and some people did really bad. Really bad." Yeah, we didn't want to see ours. My friend and I didn't do too bad... and with the curve, it's all good. The curve made it out of 46 points. 40-46 is an A... and so forth. So I got 39/46. Not too shabby. He was very kind to me on the brief essays. I should have scored a lot worse. 7/10 on the first and  8/10 on the other one. Ha!

The library. Oh, the library. Funny things happen in there. Mhm...

HE SPEAKS!!! 
Yep, cute boy speaks. He spoke to me. I didn't even recognize him. Honestly. He has short, spikey hair now.  Yeah. He went from looking like an 18 year old to looking like a 25 year old. How long were we on break for?? It's not that I forgot what he looked like... he just looks different all of a sudden. And he spoke to me. Ha! It took me a minute to figure out who he was. "What are you doing?" Random people who make small talk ask me that all of the time... but he never does. So I figured it was just some random guy killing some time. Then he looked at me and I couldn't help but silently squee. Like, whoa. I said I was watching Led Zeppelin, which I was... I have "The Song Remains the Same" on my iPod. He was like, "Oh, The Song Remains the Same?!?!" Marry me. He speaks Zeppelin. Marry.Me.Now. Ha! "Yep!" He nodded his head and said, "cool!" He looked at down at my iPod's screen for a few minutes, smiled, and then walked away. Um... what? The Universe is on my side today. For sure.


The Sharks. Last time I blogged, they had traded Murray. They've been on a winning streak since that trade. Go figure. They have since traded Handzus... and today, they traded...


CLOWE! They've traded Clowe! 
Bye-bye, Clown. 

This day has been amazing. Mhm!


SongPop awaits.
