Day off of work was nice. Actually, it made the day feel a lot shorter for some reason. Oh well.
I did some loads of laundry and studied most of the daytime. My dad took me out to Thundercloud Subs for lunch.
Later on in the evening, I went to some study sessions for the test I have tomorrow. They were informative and made me feel like the information kinda stuck this time.
Came home, ate some pasta, cooked some pasta stuff, and went back to studying. Pretty boring day; I hope me and Kelc change that by watching some 'It's Always Sunny'.

Today was mostly uneventful. Turned in an acoustics assignment that, of course, was extended to Friday. Spent a lot of time in the lab working on a 3-week lab, and have finished 13/14ths of it in two weeks, woo woo!
I spend the rest of the day studying for the Government test and DSP hw. Late last night I watched a really good episode of It's Always Sunny with Kelc.
G'night folks.

Woke up bright and early for work today. It didn't feel too bad to wake up that early since daylight savings occurred over the weekend.
At work, I got a good chunk of work done. Andy and I went out to lunch at some hole-in-the-wall mexican place, delicious and not that expensive. Greasy food made me sluggish and tired afterwards. I stayed late and cranked out a bit more work since I will not be there Thursday.
I sped home and then went to go vote. Yay voting. Actually, I kinda hate how everybody gets all excited and proclaims "let your voice be heard, go out and vote" but if everybody voted, then it would just show how conflicting everybody's view is. I think the real solution here is to change how people deal with winning or losing.
So Obama won. Excellent. I was not an Obama supporter, but I am a supporter now. The real goal for people should be to get excited about politics and encourage debates, not complain about how bad a politician may be. Let's get excited about the next 4 years, no matter who you were originally supporting.

Fun week beginning. School wasn't too bad, though I was exhausted through most of it.
Worked most of the evening on school work to prepare for the end of the week. Glanced up at the Steelers game every now and then, well done players!
Work tomorrow... mmmm.

Woke up grumpy today. Ended up going out to Kelc's lakehouse and getting away from everything. Nice mini-vacation. I was told I'm somewhat mechanically smart, yay. For dinner, we had frozen pizza. The pier that Kevin and I started is getting rather large. Then everybody began collaborating on some projects that should be somewhat challenging, but rewarding.
Ha! Thanks BCS rankings? Texas lost to number 7, and is now ranked number 4.... Tech beat number 1 and is now only number 2. And to think, this year was projected to not be that great for Texas... just think about how awesome next year is going to be.

Woke up late today. Felt good to finally get some continuous hours of sleep. Kelc and I parted ways; she went to watch the leander various cheer and dance squads perform at LHS. I went home and watched some football games and dealt with my phone ringing at inopportune times. Lunch consisted of a frozen pizza that I didn't cook quite long enough, but oh well, I was starving.
Later Kelc and I went over to Justin/Habibi/Travis's and watched the football game. Texas's had a rather disappointing first half offensively and defensively. Second half was better offensively, but the defense just didn't not pick up their game very well. Mistakes happened all over the game, and frankly, it was about time Texas showed that we are not flawless. I could go and on about "if only..." but it doesn't matter anymore. We played a good game. I'm still proud of the team. Texas Tech played a great game and kept us on edge the entire time. At least it's nice that we were beat by somebody in the top 10 and not someone ranked much lower.
Later, everybody met up at the yellow-house party. I had a fantastic time. Katie really could have killed somebody, Justin was a rock star, Habibi was about to take flight, Travis was doing ollies over everybody, Ray was the scariest comedian, Taylor was a creep rocker, Marisa was animated, Andrea was from a different country, and Kelc was the little devil she really is. Oh and I was able to drink away the concerns of a loss.

Wow, Halloween already come and gone. There were a ton of kids going around my neighborhood, but they ended up stopping trick-or-treating by like 8:30pm. If I had gone, I would probably have gone till at least 10pm. Such babies. It's all about the candy and the fear of night.
After school (which was mostly uneventful), Kelc and I went to get some Rudy's for dinner. Then we stopped by Hollywood Video and got 5 movies that were being sold for 4 bucks each. I guess DVDs are being thrown out for the new format of the US...Blu-Ray. Funny how everybody though Blu-Ray was going to be a failure along the PS3. Anyways, I think buying those for 4 was a better deal than renting the movies. Last time I rented two movies, it was around 7 bucks. What a waste since I only had them for 5 days.
We watched Elizabethtown, which I know is one of Rudy's favorite movies. I noticed all the music, and a good chunk of lines from all the times he would be watching it while I would be doing homework. Pretty decent movie. The story isn't too involved, so you can just sit back and enjoy the dialog.
