Double free, Tech guy, falling off.

Yeah, today’s been really busy … even though I had a sleep-in (which was awesome) and a double free, lol. During my double free I tried to get my modem to work (’cause it hasn’t since I upgraded to XP) … and I asked Ms. Blue and she said to go to gateway.com and look for drivers and the kind of modem I have … so I did all that (except the drivers were being annoying), and when I’m done I can’t find her … so I email her, and she hasn’t replied. Grr. But oh well … hopefully she will before I leave tomorrow.

I still can’t believe I have like a 5-day weekend. I keep forgetting that I can leave at 12 tomorrow, lol. And I saw the VA Tech guy today, he was pretty cool. The only people who came were me, Erica, and Lindsay — if Erica applies, she’ll definitely get in, and probably Lindsay too, but not me, haha. I don’t have the grades, but for my major (fine art/graphic design), the minimum SAT score is 1000, so that’s already taken care of.

Anyway, after that I had riding … and I fell off. It sucked. My shoulder and thumb hurt a little, but that’s all. I was riding Groovin’ (which I don’t do very often) and we were cantering around Big Track — and I guess he spooked at an opening in the fence, ’cause one second everything was fine and the next he stops dead in his tracks and I fly over his head, haha. In the air I was like, oh crap. I haven’t fallen off since sophomore year, and even that was with jumping. But oh well *shrugs* Luckily when I got up he didn’t run off when I approached him (it would’ve sucked if he did, ’cause Big Track is huge). Part of his bridle was off, too, and he was being head-shy about it so it took me awhile to move it back into position. But I didn’t get back on ’cause I figured we were both freaked out enough, and it was almost time for me to go in anyway. So yeah. That was my little drama for the day.

Oh, and our room didn’t win the door-decorating contest. We so should have … but unfortunately, we don’t have the supplies to make a 6-foot-wide rope spiderweb with a spider. So pssh :razz:

Well, g2g now and do homework and laundry … so adios. Speaking of work, I got my microbiology test back today … and I got a 69 *sigh* Stupid notes, critical thinking, and questions that weren’t even in the notes, and apparently had to spontaneously remember from 3 years ago (wtf?). It also didn’t help that I barely had enough time to finish it. I’m starting to realize that I wasn’t kidding when I told myself freshman year to never take bio again. But oh well …

18 hours ’til I free! :grin:
