I opted to name my Thinkpad, Marlow. I absolutely adored that character in Heart of Darkness and Lord Jim, I couldn't tell you why but I did and so this baby shall get it's name from that.  I like naming things, and I think it'll discourage me from wanting kids because I'd feel guilty naming my kid after a laptop or something, at least that is my theory as to why no children for me, ever.

I also damn enjoy Rilo Kiley, especially the song: A Ma/Me/Then Jim.  Every time I hangout with Aimee, she is playing one of their CDs and generally, this song.  We both got into Rilo Kiley around the same time, but separately and it is just nice to have someone else to listen to their music with, I mean, Andrew enjoys it as well and I dunno... ramble.

Last night Aimee, Robert, and I went to Shorty's.  Aimee and I were desperate for some activity and me being the genius that I am opted to call my twin brother, Adam, as he's generally out doing something all the time. Apparently, on Monday and Tuesday nights Shorty's have an Open Jam night and people can bring their instruments and jam out.  My brother of course played, Create Evolve played and a few others.  It was nice to be out, we drank and shouted over the music and had a good time.  This Friday there is a party going on at the newest party house, and Andrew seems willing to go because it is mostly his friends going and hosting this.  I am glad that I am invited, and I am glad to be getting out of the basement more, even if I am stuck being the designated driver.

I do enjoy my quiet time, I do enjoy small crowds over large crowds, but sometimes I want to be out and party, let myself go and enjoy everything.  I am glad that Andrew is more willing to get out,  it always felt awkward going to his friend's parties without him.

Past Saturday was a game night at my brother Paul's house, it was fun.  Chill and relaxed, we played mostly Apples to Apples and then  a game of Cranium, but I enjoyed it.  We had work the next morning so a nice relaxing game night is always good. Also had a test yesterday in my World Civ. II class, I think I did decent and its my fault for not studying until Sunday, I literally studied all day trying to get the terms down and thinking of the essay questions, one would think I'd learn by now but I enjoy procrastinating, I am sure.

I am off to shower. :]

Tch.  I had my first test of the semester, I felt rather confident about it until I was glancing over my notes this afternoon and realized I had mixed up two definations completely, oh well. The essay portion I am confident about and it'll be one vocabulary word wrong, and hopefully I'll just resubmit the correct answer.  I am not too worried as the class is set up where it is virtually impossible to fail, but I don't know.. I still don't like the fact I made a stupid mistake.  Eh, oh well.

Saturday was a fun night, it was a game night over at my brother Paul's house.  Andrew

and I brought Pop 5 over and Apples to Apples, both brilliant games, a load of people were over, we also played old skool nintendo and it was just fun, cozy, neat.  On Friday I started playing Tales of the Abyss, which is brilliant. I absolutely adored Tales ofSymphonia, when I played it a couple of years ago, having a crazy-insane-girlish crush on Kratos, haha, in fact naming my  beloved car after him.  Thus far I am enjoying Tales of the Abyss, time shall tell when I begin playing it more. :O

Yeah.  Life is going good, am glad to have a game to occupy myself with, am slacking off in the reading department but after Tales I plan on reading crazy again, I do have so many books to plow through, I blame school as it always makes me lazy and the only thing  I ever feel like doing on my day offs from class, studying, or work is something like a video game or watching episodes of Scrubs, hrm. Yeah...

Thus far my plan for eating healhier is going alright.  I don't really want to lose weight or anything, I just want to get into shape, I have an awful diet, I am very out of shape for my age and I need to motivate myself a lot better.  Damn it all. Oh well, I want to go sledding. Good day.
