Just a few updates
Last night I had the best 10 minutes of my weekend. It's a shame "those moments" are so fleeting and meaningless. In fact, it's really pathetic that I get so excited over such things. Here I go being all ambiguous again. Unrelated... In case you were wondering, I had my car looked at and the transmission appears to be fine. My mom pointed out that just having snow and ice packed around the engine and transmission could have been causing problems last Sunday. I do need a new wheel and a couple of new tires though. The wheel had to be ordered and should be coming in this week. All in all it should cost around 320 bucks. Could have been worse. This weekend has been so relaxing and enjoyable. All day Friday and Saturday I didn't do any work. Friday night we went out to Karma on Coventry for JP's birthday. It was good Indian food, but really expensive. Last night I went bowling with FCA, which was a lot of fun. (109 and 137 if you were curious) Today I studied a bit for my test coming up on Tuesday and just chilled the rest of the time. Looks like we'll be making milkshakes and having people over later on which should be fun. Still no new leads on job stuff. I'm starting to accept that come May 16th I'll be moving back home. Where I go from there, though, is uncertain. Yesterday I started looking up some stuff on art/design schools. I requested an information packet from Academy of Art University in San Francisco. One of the things I've been thinking about is getting a degree in industrial design or transportation design. I think designing the aesthetics of cars would be a pretty cool job. Like I've said before, I went into engineering thinking that would be part of what I would be doing. Instead engineering is only designing how things work while industrial design is designing what they look like. Who knew. Anyway this will probably just end up being another one of my crazy half baked ideas that I never have the guts to follow through on. Here's hoping one of these days I actually get a good idea that I can follow through with. For now I'm just glad that I'm taking all the uncertainty fairly well and not getting really depressed/angry over everything. It'll all work out for the best in the end. I just have to keep telling myself that.....
Current Mood: Relaxed

Last movie I saw: Hamlet (2000)
One line review: Interesting concept but the "Olde English" made it hard to follow.
On a scale of 0-5 sucks (0 being the best): 2.5 sucks
