It looks like my Ipod Nano is going to arrive today….just in time for my trip to Vegas next weekend. It’s a black & silver (RAIDER NATION!) 4Gb model with my name & email engraved on the back……as if whoever finds it is going to bother returning it. Yeah, fat chance of that happening. I have ordered Lanyard headphones to use in the gym but those are shipping separately. I’m looking forward to hearing it how it works with my Etymotic headphones. Next I’ll need a skin so it doesn’t get scratched so easily. I hope to start listening to audio books now. I was going to buy them on CD but the player in my car bought the farm recently.
- Edit – It’s here! Dang, is this thing tiny or what? I had no idea it would be this small. Loading it up with Tupac, Ice Cube and Metallica as I type. The first pic still has the clear covering it came with on it.
Back to Skewl!

Okay, so 19 years after dropping out of University of West Georgia I have returned to University of Phoenix to get a B.S. degree. I just finished my first class and I am happy to say I got………drum roll, please………….. an A! 91.5% to be exact. The instructor apparently either cut me some slack or just didn’t check something out. She gave me 10/10 points on the final paper, which shouldn’t have been possible since it was under the minimum word count she specified. I thought it was my worst paper of the class but she thought otherwise and commented how much my writing improved toward the end. I was really expecting a 7.5/10 which would have cost me one letter grade.
I was a ‘C’ student the first time around so I’ve set a goal to finish with all A’s & B’s and a 3.3 overall GPA. Unfortunately UoP is very epensive so I will probably end up stopping temporarily in January unless they increase the amount of financial aid I qualify for. Next up is Critical Thinking & Computer Logic 330.
When a girl…

When a GIRL is quiet,
Millions of things are running in her mind.
When a GIRL is not arguing,
She is thinking deeply.
When a GIRL looks at u with eyes full of questions,
She is wondering how long you will be around.
When a GIRL answers “i’m fine” after a few seconds,
She is not at all fine.
When a GIRL stares at you,
She is wondering why you are lying.
When a GIRL lays on your chest,
She is wishing for you to be hers forever.
When a GIRL calls you everyday,
She is seeking for your attention.
When a GIRL wants to see you everyday,
She wants to be pampered.
When a GIRL sms’s u everyday,
She wants you to reply at least once.
When a GIRL says I love you,
She means it.
When a GIRL says that she can’t live without you,
She has made up her mind that you are her future.
When a GIRL says “i miss you”,
No one in this world can miss you more than that.
- added by me
When a girl opens her mouth,
That bitch is probably about to lie.
