Mar. 25th, 2007 07:37 pmOk, so busy weekend.
Assignment due today, done. Whoot. In Sports Marketing, so that will help some. :-P
Went to a convention planning meeting, for a "fund raising" convention set for next weekend. The main goal of the weekend? For those at it to drink, heavily, donate money, and to have a good time.
Today, it was stated they needed someone to basically stay sober, and be a runner. So, I volunteered. Yay.
test at the end of this week. so, I'll be cramming, all week. :-) But, feel mostly good. Also have the "Blind/Deaf/Wheelchair" exercise on Thursday.
Also, this weekend, have been playing with one of the sets of DVDs I got. Basically, one of the sets had episodes out of order. Gah. So, I've been playing, to put the eps in the proper order. Right now? I've got that, but the menu's on the DVDs look odd, in comparison to what my meager skills can do. It's not a big point, the eps are still viewable, in the proper order (even though one ep is missing), but I'm pushing myself to learn just a tad more about what the software can do. Tis fun to play with so far, and can't wait to see what the end result is taken as (as I'm not just doing this for myself, I do have someone else in mind for these).
Now, for the bad. I've been feeling an angsty cloud of dread the last several days. I have no idea why, nor what to do about it. Part of it? Feels like spinning wheels. I know that school is a long, arduous process, and I'm enjoying it as well, but every now and then, I wonder. I also had the brain saying "EM isn't quite right for you". *shakes head* I hate that. I'm kinda tired of it. EM still feels right, and a good avenue for me. I'm people based, I'm helping people based, which is why EM is good for me, better than Psychology (and I've had many people point out that they didn't think psych would be a good fit for me). But, I want so many things yesterday.
Friends? I miss them. I miss just hanging out, gaming, Wednesdays..all of it. I have so many things I miss that there are days where none of this school crap seems worth it given the cost.
I'm not trapped, far from it, as I put myself here to be going through school, to get that little scrap of paper that I always put quite a bit of power in. But, there are some things that right now, it sure as hell doesn't seem worth the cost. And again, we get to concepts in my head that I don't know how to put the right words to.
But, I'm also thankful for the chance to be here, at this moment in time. Really, at this point, it's not even if I make it through school (though, I WANT that), but I guess what I'm trying to say here, badly, it seems, is that if while going on this path something else seems even more right? Then it's cheating myself more than I did when I was at ABG and miserable to not investigate such options. Yeah, the one that got me is what I'm currently working, the DVD authoring/editing. :-P
I hope all is well for all of you. There are a few I've not heard from (or read), and I'm starting to wonder. Might wait another day or so before nudging. :-)

Date: 2007-03-26 04:55 am (UTC)Um...when is normally good? Tomorrow night isn't, as parents have me, and Friday isn't good (well, yeah, now that I think,for numerous reasons for both of us). I'll bring the thumbdrive of HotR pictures, and bring cash to have you bring me back a DVD or something. :-)

Tonight Jase and I are going to see the Last Mimzy.
Btw, Happy Birthday!
