aprilstarchildBah ha ha I did the post-lab questions directly after the lab this time instead of waiting until my last break at work. The pre-lab questions for next week involve stuff from reading chapter six, which I haven't done, so that can wait until next week. Especially since I have my first exam for my lecture this upcoming Tuesday. I'm not completely sure how I'm going to study for that, but I printed the outline of the lectures, which I think might be more useful than my notes. The lectures are done off power-point, and in my urge to write down as much as possible, I often miss what the teacher is saying! So I don't understand things as quickly as I might otherwise. I think from now on I'll just write the highlights of the lectures and then fill in the information from the text, or something. That'll help me understand the text anyway, and the lectures are almost straight out of the book.
Also, note to self: Read the text before class! The online quiz things are usually based on the chapters she's going to lecture on.
Oy, the printouts. I need to get a sturdy folder or a binder or something, my lab is all on stuff printed from WebCT.
Friday of this weekend, nothin'. So far for Sunday: nothin'. But Saturday? Yikes! I have to work in the morning (arrrrgh, but I can use the overtime) to help us catch up on filing. That afternoon is the black'n'white party that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
underthethrow is hosting. And that night is "corset night" for a handful of us at Noir, where I haven't been in ages. glitterninja lent me a beautiful purple corset. It's too big to tightlace, but it'll still be pretty. I don't know what skirt I'll pair it with yet.
Heh. I'll never forget trying on a tightlaced corset at one of the merchants at Convergence. I think they managed to shrink my waist by several inches, and I couldn't stop staring in the mirror and running my hands over my waist, because it felt so foreign, between the shape change and the boning. I had to breathe up and I couldn't bend at the waist, obviously, but it was still oddly comfortable. Too bad it was $300!
It's official: the chairs at this computer lab suck. I can't make them go up and down and the surface is too high for me to use them comfortably for very long, my shoulder's already achy. I'm sitting on my textbook just to add a couple of inches to my height!!
ETA: No, I do have plans for tomorrow night. A young woman on a bike was hit by a cement truck at W. 14th and Burnside earlier today and she was killed. They're having a memorial ride kinda thing tomorrow starting just where W. Burnside comes off the bridge closure, up to the site. It meets at six and rides at six-thirty, I get out of work at six. If anyone else wants to join us, please do.
Ugh, it happened just as I was coming back from lunch withglitterninja, and just seven blocks from where I work. That would explain the sirens we heard just after I started working again. We hear sirens almost every day so I didn't think anything of it at the time.
They're asking people to bring flowers or candles or whatever feels appropriate.
