despite the extra cash, today was not a good day. i woke up feeling all sorts of twisted. my blanket-wrapped burrito-style fetal position was severely warped due to my dreamless tossed-and-turned sleep. i stumbled around, getting ready and making my last minute edits for the eight page paper i wrote yesterday for religion as well as the two pager for english. i had a lovely breakfast of soy granola (mm mm trader joes!) and freshly picked oranges from my uncle's backyard that my mom brought home from cali for me. i wanted it to be a good day, but nothing seemed to work.
feeling rather ominous, i set off for school, weighed down by a calc book i didnt even bother to open and a travel cup of chocolate truffle flavored coffee with two packets of sweetnlow, per usual. the sun glare was particularly terrible today. music positively nauseated me and i'm surprised i made it to school at all.
miraculously i made it through spanish and english (pop timed essay! who does that!!!) then developed an enormous headache unlike any other i've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. seriously, i would not will it upon anyone. mr. b let me go to the nurse for tylenol, and she suggested i stay for a bit and lie down. the thought of sleeping on the awful, yellow plastic cot with unfluffed pillows and still blankets repulsed me. plus kids were in and out and it wasn't as though i would have received any rest anyways.
i ended up coming home and falling asleep in the comfortable pillows of my own couch to the backround of kitchen accomplished on the food channel. i woke up 5 hours later, ate too much food, and fell back asleep.
i'm supposed to make up a physics quiz in the morning from the one i missed last week but i dont foresee that taking place.
i'm also supposed to take the ap calculus exam tomorrow but i dont think i'm doing that either. pc would apply credit (if i actually pulled a 5 with the aid of buddha) only for calc I, meaning i would advance right away into calc II. mmmmm do i really want to do that when i could just take calc I again with an extra solid foundation this time around? nope, didn't think so. i think i'll save my 82 bucks and buy prom shoes.
okay. time for sleep again.

Good call on AP Calc. I re-took it in college, too. It's good to have at least one class you are familiar with, so you know you can get an A or a B in Calc I your freshman year. People who jumped right into Calc II had it much harder. And they had lower GPAs.
