BE's never-ending fun ** 4 completed TR's ** Thousands of Photos

Yesterday we finall turned in master drawings. It only took about forever and a day! It went better than I thought it would, so I'm happy to be sort of done with it. Outside of the minor tweaks I have to do before turning it in with our final portfolio.

And to top it off, guess who had a Disneyland dream last night?! I did! I did! I'm 85 days away provided we don't change our dates by a couple of days, and I'm finally starting to get excited!! It's weird for me to say that because normally I'm a little more excited far earlier but with all of the money stress and is she/isn't she with my friend it's been hard to enjoy. It's part of why I've been a little MIA from here. But last night's dream was awesome. It was myself, my sister, and two of our cousins!! I wish I could really get the 4 of us to go. It would really save us some money between splitting gas prices and the hotel, lol.

AWW! I really wants to go.

Yay for finally being excited! It's hard to get excited when you don't know if or when it's going to happen, but at least you got it mostly figured out!

I get Disneyland dreams all the time! Except for some reason I never make it actually into the park. It's always me trying to get there, but I always wake up before I do. It's wierd. Probably because I haven't been there in so long. But I have been getting them more lately, probably cause it's all I think about!

Glad your art class went well. No more drawing for a while?

 

[Belle Ella]

Funnily enough I usually have Disneyland dreams fairly often. But this is the first one that I have had in a very, very long time. So I was pretty excited, and the fact that I can actually remember it is pretty exciting as well. You know that feeling when you want to dream a dream but the more you focus in on the details, the more you can't remember a thing?

Crud-o-la. I am trying to print out my health assignment and we run out of ink. So not fun! At least I was already planning a trip to Target today to pick up the new Glee music. Guess I gotta go do that now so I can print everything I need to print -- there's a lot of it!

YAY! I love Disneyland dreams. I have them fairly frequently. hehe

Speaking of school, I turned in my last Access assignment today. I took my last quiz for my other class too I think. I'm thrilled that this semester is almost over. lol I did sign up for two summer classes though and I changed my major just slightly. I'm sorely tempted to do a dual degree. hehe

 

[DisneyStitch626]

I hate when you can't remember a dream! It sucks more when you see someone, and then you remember they were in your dream, but you still can't remember anything about the dream to figure out why they were in it.

Ink is so expensive! I try not to use my home printer very often cause it cost like $80 to get ink for it. So I do most of my printing at work!

 

[Belle Ella]

I can't wait for this semester to be over. But it's almost that time. We're about a month out. Today should be an easy day. Helth class, but we always get out early, and then an exam in Anthro. on genetics which should be pretty easy and I'll be home before 8 p.m. -- just in time for Glee!

Yeah, ink is definitely expensive. I don't have a job where I can actually print things from so the home printer is the only option, really. Luckily I don't have to pay for the ink. I bought 4 packs (2 of black/color) plus a CD and it was just under $100 with my team member discount!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

That's not too bad. Usually its $80 just for 1 set (1 black, 1 colour) for mine. I just avoided printing anything if I could. Sometimes you can get printers for less than that! But if you use it for school and stuff, it's probably worth it in the end.

 

[Belle Ella]

Yeah, that would suck. It also depends on where you buy it from. I know my store carries it for less $$ than if I went to an office supply store or what not.

 

[wvnative]

While I do print most of what little bit of my school stuff needs printed at work, we have one of those refill places right around the corner from the house. It wasn't as cheap as I'd hoped at $22 but it was still cheaper than buying a brand new one.

According to my calendar, yesterday was the beginning of week 13 of our 16 week semester. We're getting there. lol

 

[Belle Ella]

Hm. The ink I bought today was under $20 for the black and I think like $22 for the color.

OK, so I had to do an entire project for my health class today because I totally spaced on it. It's a big disease report and I decided to do mine on bipolar disorder (which is what my sister was diagnosed with after the whole in February). At least I did it. Now she's lookig over all the information I pulled together.

Now time to get some mini studying in for my exam tonight, haha!

 

[wvnative]

I hate it when I forget to do something and have ot pull it all together last minute. lol

I'll be working on the paper we have to do for my international business class over the weekend. I've got it about halfway done but will need to add in some fillers I'm sure. It's not due til May 3rd so I've got time. We were informed yesterday that there will be no CIS class on Thursday. He said he'll still be there in case anyone wants to come in but for those of us that have passing grades, he's not making that class a requirement since we're so far ahead. lol I should probably email him to verify whether or not we'll actually be presenting our powerpoint presos to the class or not. If we're presenting, I'll make a few changes to mine. If not, I'll add the music and call it good.

Last night was supposed to be our exam in Anthro so I was so excited that I could get in and get out and be home before 8 p.m. But of course we get to class and he starts rambling for a second about how his other classes missed a day of lecture because we had a power failure the previous week. So he wanted to do lecture the first half of class since he was going to introduce different stuff to his other class before their exam, and we would start it at 8 instead of 7. A few of us were freaking out because we just wanted to go home. Luckily the class voted in favor of just taking the class and high tailing it out of there!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

All this talk about school really makes me want to go back. There is a 2 year Photography program in Calgary that I have been eyeing up for a few years now, but I just can't afford it. The only way I could do that is if I asked my Dad to pay, which I really don't want to ask for anything that much, even though he said he would pay for my education. It would also mean a move to Calgary for both Dillon and I, which also means job moves. Not sure it is all worth it, but maybe sometime in the future. Plus, we wouldn't be able to afford Disneyland, so that might not work!

 

[Belle Ella]

Because life caters to our Disney obsession, not the other way around.

Man, oh man. Nameless likes to give me panic attacks in the DLR department. Her laptop broke which is now another expense coming her way. So now it's once again looking like this trip is doomed.

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Oh no! This is not good!

Just tell her she doesn't need a laptop for a few months and Disney is more important!!! Haha. Although she probably uses it for school, hey?

 

[DisneyStitch626]

If I didn't live so far away, I would offer to get Dillon to take a look at it for her. That is what he does for a living.

 

[Belle Ella]

No laptops would go over so well with either one of us NOT!!

I think I would just die without my laptop. Just die. I remember my vacation last June to visit my grandmother in Texas for a week and my hard drive crashed the first day that I was there. It took me forever to get my laptop back in running order because I kept forgetting to order a new HD. It was absolute torture. Torture I tell you!!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Haha, I know what you mean. I can't go without mine either. You should see it right now. It looks like it's been run over by a bus. The monitor frame is cracked, keys are missing. And I have to have it plugged in, in order for it to stay on, because the battery is completely dead. But because I have an IT for a boyfriend, it still runs like it's brand new. I really would like a nice shiny new one though! I am still trying to convince Dillon to let me get a Mac. If I get a Mac though, it will probably be the full sized one, not a laptop.

Has she said what is wrong with her laptop? Maybe it's something I can get instructions on how to fix it.

 

[Belle Ella]

Nope, she hasn't. I should ask her. My uncle is also an IT for the county. He always does all of our computer stuff, lol. Between our crazy schedules though I haven't had the chance to actually talk to her lately.

I really, really, really want to go this summer but I'm thinking maybe it would be better to postpone and maybe try the end of September?

No. That wouldn't work. A big point about the summer trip was that I wouldn't be missing any school because I need to stop doing that.

GAAH!!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

If you were to go in the summer, would you still be going in the fall? Or is it a one or the other thing?

If you could get your Uncle to look at her laptop, maybe it will be something that won't cost much to get fixed. Usually it's something fixable, unless it's really old, then it might not be worth it.
