With gently smiling jaws...

Sooo, I tried, I really tried, to post the two hundredth comment on your page. I truely did, but this crazy new Buzz that we're living in (which I am not a huge fan of) decided it didn't like my comments. So, to you Dipp, your two hundredth comment, as written by Noodlemantra.

200th comment! And it's MINE ALL MINE! and it won't post 'cause new buzz doesn't like me! And half of your trackbacks are from people looking for "nood girls" and "nood photos" haha. I swear, I'm just going to keep adding to this comment until buzz posts it. How 'bout... now? NO! "Please wait until your comment is posted" is a LIE!!! LIES I tell you. What a lying liar who lies. Perhaps my commenting abilities have been stolen away by the buzz gods for never posting... I JUST WANT THE 200TH COMMENT! Psshhhhh. I'm going to go read my homework, come back, and try again. Maybe it'll work. Or not. Alright. New buzz = teh suxorz. Pssh, I quit.

So there it is. Except it soooo wouldn't post, so instead of Siobhan's 200th comment, there will be another. Sadness. I tried. So I guess it won't be mine all mine.

[i'm a tad little tiny bit... a really lot tired. good god no one should be at school for 14 hours straight.]

Buzz abandonment makes me sad. I don't like that I don't have time to post on here all the time like I used to. It's mostly because I average 45-55 hours a week at school, the rest of the time is either doing homework or sleeping. (Well, kinda...) I do have straight A's though. Half of my high school grades are 99%. Heh.

I was thinking of trying to post a picture a day. I'll try, but it'll prolly be more like once a week if we're lucky. Every other week. I'm going to try to be around more. The semester is almost over...

My featured user profile is so very out of date.

I need to go do that damn book report that was due today though, and a heart worksheet, and learn some Spanish tenses (finally). Oh procrastination.

School is taking over my life. Seriously. I feel bad for not being around here.
I have class on Saturdays, that's just not right. Then on Monday I have 12 hours at school. I get the regular 6 hour school day, 1 hour of tutoring, then 5 hours of community college. Pbbt. That suuucks. Wednesday is the second longest day because school starts at 7 because of Student Council. Then I have 2 hours of class after school.

So Calculus (aka math 181)... Yeah, I understand it. I just can't do the work without making dumb mistakes. Also, I'm the only person on the Smith Valley campus so the teacher calls on me all the time. There's a test on Wednesday. I'm kind of scared.
Other math related news that's a lot cooler than that is... I got to teach Algebra I the other day! Haha. There was a sub and the kids learned the concept the day before. (So did I, I didn't know about that shortcut!) So I taught them and they were the only class that did the homework right! Yesssss. Being a Teacher's Aide is kind of awesome. I can sit there and look superiour when I do my calculus homework and they do their algebra. Heh.

Randomly annoying class - PE. Too. Much. Running. 3 miles in 40 minutes, 1/2 mile in 3:30 minutes. Football. I'm sore and have blisters on my feet. I'm one of those people who thinks that the PE grade should be 100% for some reason. I'm also competative, which is kind of weird... in a good way. I like that PE is getting me in shape though. Except I ran 3 miles and I hadn't exercised in months. That suuuuucked.
English is also kind of annoying. Need to write book reports. Need to write a short story! I NEED A FREAKIN' PLOT BY TUESDAY! I am completely blank when it comes to ideas for that sucker.
Alright classes - Chemistry - we haven't done anything cool yet. At least I'm the only one with an A in it though. Yesss
Cool classes - Anatomy - cool dispite beaver heads, Spanish II - I just freakin' love Spanish

But right now, I'm procrastinating because I don't want to do the reading for psychology. And my computer seems to have contracted a virus. I think it got West Nile. So I'm on a different computer in a different part of the house. But I should go read.

I less than three you all! - Siobhan - Noodlemantra

Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist DIED!!!! OHHNOOOO! This is bad and scary!

I'm back at home... I'll start uploading pictures soon. Very soon. Washington DC was incredible. I love and miss it so much.

Presidential Manipulation of Public Opinion in the Modern Presidency

It's a ton of fun. Wow. I thought you guys should know. I'm going back to Nevada on the 7th. I will post.

I miss posting excessively on Buzznet now that I'm at Georgetown. It's so much fun here, but I don't exactly have ready internet access. Right now I'm stealing my room mate's ethernet jack because the one on my side of the room doesn't work. So that totally sucks. But other than that, it's really cool here. A couple of days ago, I got to meet the senators from the GREAT state of Nevada. Yeah, no matter what the bias is in the New England states is, (apparently, the kids from NE don't really like the West or the South, it's kinda annoying) I still think Nevada is great! So I got to meet Harry Reid and John Ensine. Harry Reid wasn't that cool but John Ensine was. Go figure. We also went up and saw the office of the minority leader which was really cool. Yeah, Reid's office was cooler than Reid was. Reid had a Harry Potter book on his desk too. That was funny.
What was funny about John Ensine... I went in a group with 3 other people. A girl from Reno, a girl from Vegas, and my RA. So John Ensine walks up to us and starts talking, only I was the only one who realised that it was John Ensine. So, he walks away and the others wonder aloud who it was. They were figuring a high-level staffer to Reid, but then I broke the news to them that it was, in fact, John Ensine, and they all felt really dumb. When I came back from the Hill, I saw the director of the program and he said, "I heard you were the only one who recognised the senator." So that was really funny.

We've also met... Mike McCurry, Clinton's press secretary, Nelson Mineta, the Secretary of Transportation, Lee Hamilton, one of the heads of the 9-11 Commission, the French Ambassador, and a handful of Department of Defence guys. One of the DoD guys was in the war room with Rumsfeld at the pentagon during 9-11. Overall, we were pretty impressed with these guys.

So tomorrow I have a midterm for my class, the presidency. The guy who's teaching is absolutely awesome. He's one of the top analysts for the office of the presidency. His name is Martin Sheffer, so if'n you've heard of him... he's really cool.

Alrighty, I need to go study. I'll try to keep you guys posted dispite the fact that at current, I am internet-less. I love you buzzfriends!
