I don't know what's with me today.

I think I've said before on here that I'm an integrative biology (IB) major planning to go into dentistry/orthodontics.  This implies graduate school, which over the last year I have been finding out may well be out of my reach.  My grades aren't good enough.

Why aren't they good enough?  Apathy.  I care about my grades, or at least profess to, but really when it's time to study the game is on or I spend time on my computer...anything.  I have great crunch time, but I can't get the A's I need in classes by studying 1-2 days before a test.  I have 2 next week and have been yelling at myself to get started now, but I just can't.  It might be the old "I'm afraid to try because I'll still fail" psychological perspective.

Chemistry and biology, the core classes of my major, suck.  And they don't really interest me.  I don't know what does, besides beer boobs and sports.  I'm lacking drive in my life, 110%.  See "writing, anything the last 2 years" for details.

I got laid last night.  I told her to give me a call/text today if she wanted when she was leaving.  I can't call/text her because then I seem emotional or needy.  It hasn't worked out in the past, trust me.  Anyway, when I got up today I strutted a bit, but then eventually came to realize that this girl has no reason to call me.  Sure, I fucked her good (minor hell yeah!), but we didn't even talk to one another before we started making out at the bar.  I talked to a bunch of other girls at this exchange, and last night my drunken self figured I had talked to this one (she knew my name and my year...I knew neither, which is always unsurprising).  So...not another booty call probably.

I feel like sex should fill this apathy hole in my life, but besides a smile on my face for a short time this morning it did nothing.  Masturbating doesn't hit the spot either.

This all harkens back to my essay on DS, where I talk about how I'm waiting for something to happen.  Something life changingly momentus, anything.  I'm begging for it.

But life isn't a movie.  Maybe another D on a test will pound that in, but I doubt it.

Alright, so follow me here.  I take my Ecology test yesterday, then go to lab.  End up sick and my teacher sends me home 20 minutes early (3 hour class).  Get home, pop some motrin to get rid of my super pounding headache and sleep for a couple hours.

Then, pregame and go to an exchange.  The theme is things we hope we never are.  A lot of girls show up with "sober" on their shirt.  Pretty funny.  I go as an old person because my friend has some clothes his older brother gave him when he graduated.  I wanted to go in the ninja suit but they wouldn't let me.  I'm totally down to be a ninja, but it still would've been sweet to wear it.

Anyway, end up talking to this girl for a while at the exchange, which is at this bar called Station.  I get her and some friends some drinks because they weren't carding us because we rented the place out.  We're flirting, chilling, my friends are there and we're all having a good time.  I gently probe about a boyfriend, just to be safe.  She says no.

Speak of the devil, her ex shows up.  At an exchange for our frat...wtf?  They're apparently having some drama.  Whatever.  Wait it out, see what happens, more fish in the sea etc.  Her friends and her had already invited me and some other guys to another bar (the exchange is ending).  So we head over there, without her.  Me and a friend, 2-3 other girls.  So it's still good.

The girl ends up catching up to us, her ex-boyfriend apparently stalking her.  I inquire again if they're dating or what's up.  She says he's creeping her out by following her around and that they're not dating.  K.  We hit the dance floor a little bit later, end up kissing a lot on the floor and I ask if she wants to go back to my place.  She's down.  Fuck yeah.

We start walking back.  Now, why a lot of this typing has been mentioning her ex, we haven't really talked about him too much.  And no, he's not following us and he does not attempt to get me with a knife.  I'm not into breaking couples up and I'm not trying to screw the guy over.  Just met the girl tonight, she's cool but most likely it's a one night thing.  I'd be down for more, but who knows, y'know?

On the way back she keeps talking about her boyfriend.  She calls him boyfriend.  The girl is clearly confused (not to mention drunk, as am I).  We walk past her dorm on the way to my apartment and I ask her if she wants to crash there and not do anything...she says no, let's go to my place.  Okay, I'm not sure what's going on but that seems like a go ahead.  I'm still definitely going to ask before anything goes on, but we're on track.

About two blocks out from my place, she gets a call from the -ex.  She has to wait for him.  Okay...well, her ex is crazy so I'm not about to sit and wait for him to show up two blocks from my place.  "Oh hey!  You're this girl who I've been making out with and walked to within to 2 blocks of my place with's boyfriend?  And you've been stalking her all night?  How's that going for you?"

I'm gonna text her.  All around, a fun but very confusing night.  People need to decide if they're dating people or not.  Whatever lol.

I got 12/16 picks right again.  I'm averaging above half, and a few upsets always happen.  Decent.  I should get better as the season goes on and I get more experience at this.  Congrats to Detroit on the first in almost 2 years.  Bears game was too close considering how injured they were, but we made it into a win.  My fantasy team got crushed.

Currently 9-6 in projections.  Pleasantly surprised Green Bay lost, and the Bears game was pretty impressive.  Lions almost made my weekend, but it wasn't to be.  Watching Monday Night Football and it's a game.

Got an 85% on my math test.  Pissed about that.  Get it back tomorrow and there is going to be hell to pay if I made a bunch of stupid mistakes.  Organic chemistry test wednesday which...I...haven't...studied...for...yet...Yeah.  Had chem lab today, which went better than last week.  Bio lab tomorrow.  Then cram cram cram.  Going to crash early tonight, maybe before the game is over.

Got another win in fantasy.  My opponent started Wes Welker, though he didn't play Sunday.  I lol'd.  Got a tough opponent next week but I think I can do it.  I played Aaron Rodgers instead of Hasselbeck this week and it was definitely a good decision (Hasselbeck got hurt).  Bears have them next week so I wasn't going to play him anyway, especially since Green Bay has the Rams.  Yeah.  He'll light them up (hopefully better than Clinton Portis did last week...).  I'm picking up Johnny Knox as an extra receiver.  He looked good this week, and has the Lions in week 4.  It's all about the match-ups and injuries.  Oh, and the Giants D picking Romo for 6 (should've been 12).
