This is how Jack helps out...

All moved in....

Things I like about my apartment:
- It's in a security building.
- It's a 10 minute bus ride from campus and a 15-20 minute walk.
- My HUGE closet!
- Having four washers and four dryers!! That cuts laundry time in like.. half!
- I'm closer to lsgb, Islander and MC:)
- The trees outside my window: with pretty birds and no chance of anyone looking in.

Things I don't like about my apartment:
- The hill from the bus stop to the apartment.
- The dark dark yard/parking lot (Note to self: get little flashlight)
- My wee kitchen
- The difficulty in finding a place for my kitchen table.

never again

So I'm all moved in. Very frustrated, exhausted and ready to scream but moved in. Now I just need to unpack it all.
I'm tired, and so grumpy and I just want to sit and cry. My father can be very difficult sometimes, and tonight was no different so I'm kinda just worn, both physically and emotionally. Here's hoping some tea, a tidier apartment and some sleep will help that.

seeing in doubles... or not.

So I had an eye appointment this afternoon to try and help me see a bit better while we wait to find out what's wrong. The doctor, as all doctors I've been seeing have, asked if I was seeing double. I said I didn't think so but maybe I just didn't know what it was. So he did some stuff with some lenses to show me. Well it turns out that because of how my eyes work, I physically cannot see double. However, what my vision did when he tried to make me see double is exactly what my vision has been doing lately. So essentially, I am seeing double but not at the same time. It is the same thing with my eyes that makes me have no depth perception and be unable to see 3D.
This is good and bad at the same time, good cause now I know and bad cause it means the problem is more serious (ie. the brain cyst is actually causing problems). It does mean I'll get into see the specialist sooner though. Which I guess means we can get this process moving along faster to get me all fixed up. At least here's hoping. P.S. I'm terrified about all this.
Anyways, that's today's adventure. And now I'm off to the move. Be back in a few days when I have internet again.

As if moving and packing wasn't bad enough, I hurt my back today helping my mother. Let's see how moving goes when one's on codeine and copious amounts of Robaxacet.

less than perfect

So the "semi-perfect" laptop bag was very far from perfect and therefore got returned.
But I found another (for three cents cheaper!) that may be suitable, I will find out once I go through a nice trial run with it.
Must do some packing before crashing for the night. I slept about 16 hours last night but I'm still exhausted. I figure I might as well enjoy it now while I can before classes and the world starts asking stuff from me again. Ok. Night!

Media things like books, movies and music!

I updated my movies watched, since the vacation cause well time with Dave!= time well spent watching movies.
Don't think I remembered them all though.
I also read "Forever Odd", enjoyed it. Not as much as the first though but I continue to love the dialogue in those books. Onto the next as soon as I finish Shadowplay.
Also started and finished "All the King's Men" by Robert Penn Warren. It was good, not my time of book though. It took me quite awhile to get into it but once I did I had to finish it. I'm looking forward to seeing the movie adaptation.
Dave! suggested a bunch of authors and books I might like so I'm excited to read some new stuff!
Ooooo, we got to see 3 Doors Down in concert, with Hinder, Staind and Ecoline Crush (*oops :)). Was a very good concert. Very much enjoyed myself. All of the bands were great and definitely worth it. And getting to see Kryptonite played live was very good!
