ACK!! I'll just explain my day in today's Thursday Threesome:
Onesome: Bang--ing your head against the wall? What haven't you been able to get to this week that you really wanted to? ...any hope for next week? Finish my Senior Project. I wish I could have spent more time at school today working on it. Sure, I got 4 hours in and completed a page of code, but I still feel I could have done more. I probably could have done it if I hasn't had to have met my father at the bank today to get his name off my bank account. That was a hassle! The chick there tried to tell us I had to close my account or my father be dead to get him off. My dad tried to tell her he's done this before, so he knew it was possible. Let's just say I'm sick of this bank and their inconsistent policies!
Twosome: the-- other side of the coin: What have you seen this week that was just really so cool/neat/tight/pick your own buzzword that you just had to describe it to someone? Nothing. Absolutely nothing impressed me, other than getting some work done on my Senior Project.
Threesome: Gong-- Okay, do you have one of those cute little gongs in your house? ...or a larger one in your garden? Just askin'... No.

During colloquium today, Lindsey asks me if I want to go to Six Flags Over Georgia this weekend. Seems she has 2 tickets that expire on Sunday. Chris won't go on the rides with her. So, I said I would go with her. I have to get her my share of the hotel room money tomorrow. We're going Saturday for a girls only trip to Atlanta.
We're going to have fun. Joey overheard us talking about the trip. I could clearly see he wished he could have gone. Many moons ago, he worked there. And tonight, during dinner, he pulled out the Six Flags yearbooks so I could see some of the rides. I told him I hadn't been there since I was 9.
Yes, there are yearbooks for the seasons at Six Flags. He showed me the yearbooks he had from when he was 17 and 18. In turn, I showed him a picture of me from the same era.
Colloquium today was presented by our Wesley Foundation faculty advisor, Dr. Kilhefner. From what I grasped of the talk, he was explaining how to find a formula similar to the quadratic formulas for cubic functions. I couldn't understand the entire talk, but I wasn't totally lost, either. Joey grasped it better than I did. The lunch today was some dirty rice mix with sausage and chicken in it. I was hoping it was chili. I had a craving for chili. Seems I wasn't the only one wanting chili. It sounded good to Joey, as well. He made that for dinner tonight and asked me over since I had wanted some. I can't turn down a free dinner that someone cooks for me.
School wise, I only had Senior Project today. Dr. Lau handed back to me my final report draft. I made a 100 on it.
He saw a few errors and suggested I extend 2 items. That work isn't hard. I also spent several hours at school that I didn't have to spend working on my Senior Project. I am 2 pages away from completing it. I want to get as much done as soon as possible. My fall break will be sacrificed as a result. I rather have the break, but I need to do what needs to be done.

I will admit it. I can be shallow. I've known for years I'm a bitch. But, it all came to a head today in Staples. I'm not going into details, but once I realized what I was doing and how I was acting, I was ashamed and pissed at myself. It's something I'll have to cope with and get over. Let's just say I can't believe I have this in me and it's tearing me up inside.
I did better on today's Meteorology exam. I made an 88 on it.
Sure, I didn't do as well I wanted. I've got to break this perfection/OCD spell I'm under. However, I know many people would love to do as well as I do with as little studying as possible.
My free time between classes was spent working on my E-Commerce projects and an ACM Executive Council meeting. We decided this month's activity would be an excursion out to the Coastal Empire Fair. That will be on the 25th.
E-Commerce was fine. My dad called during class. I forgot to turn my phone off, so the whole class heard it.
After the class, our groups had to meet. Maybe I was a better leader today.

Today was my last day of Golf class.
We got back our written exams to view. Overall in that section, I made a 91. I had a skills test in putting and driving. I got a 94 on my driving. I hit 5 over par for my putting exam. But, being a beginner for golf, the professor remarked I did well and that I should look into getting some clubs and continue with my game. I don't have the money for clubs and I doubt I'll ever find anyone to golf with me. During our ACM meeting today, Derrick and Joey were talking about getting together to golf. Those 2 have clubs and have been talking golf since I started that class. Yeah, I know that they've had at least one conversation about my golf game. I hope I got an A in that class.
Yes, we had an ACM meeting. The pictures from that meeting are on our site. It also includes some photos from Friday night. I was a little perturbed after the meeting. I guess my idea as a leader has too many standards to uphold. Most people I encounter that are considered leaders don't lead. In a way, I'm feeling like that with my E-Commerce project. I feel like a hypocrite. But, maybe I'm not. And, I just noticed a typo on the ACM site, which I can't correct until tomorrow when I'm on campus. I did most of my venting today about it to Lindsey.
Digital Photography was a long class today. However, I did have one of the "I wanted to take that!" shots of the day. It was my photos of the road to Wormsloe. My professor was confused by my framing shots I took at Bonaventure yesterday. He thought they were the same. I explained the framing was the same, but the viewpoints were different. We were assigned another project. I'll do that this weekend. I mentioned to Joey I was going to go to Ft. Pulaski and asked did he want to go with me. I don't want to go alone and my siblings won't go with me.
