Is it winter? I forget. Anyway, Christmas is just around the corner and here I am with presents for NO ONE...not even me. $10 is all I have right now and that's suppose to last until the next recycling Sunday, which is I think this upcoming Sunday. I know Old Navy has sandals for 2 bucks..I'll get a couple for stocking stuffers. I really wish I had a job. I applied to the Wendy's across the street yesterday. The manager looked optimistic. The day before I went to the donut shop across from school and the stupid lady said "Uh....no...try the 99 cents store or something else." It was rude how she said it too.

Well I'm not looking forward to 2007 so far. I have a huge research paper due sometime in February, a big fat FAFSA application I'll be filling out, (which will be useless since my mom ain't gonna pay anything toward my college education) my delayed driver test, (since I haven't practiced in over a month), and shopping! I have no money for shopping... I can't even go to the barber today 'cause I'm broke. I hate dealing with money.

Today I just stayed home 'cause no school. I'm happy because I just did nothing. I woke up to my phone beeping the battery was dead. Haha, I thought it was my alarm going off and on and off and on every 10 minutes. Oh well.

Yesterday I did some experimenting. My nephew who is 10 months almost pulled my iPod off the desk and I was so scared, lol. I thought and thought...."Hey, the new Macbooks have that new magnetic power plug dingey-whosit! Maybe I make something like that!" I got my extra USB iPod cable and begun.

All I did basically was pry the cover off the front and back of the iPod Connector and fold the latches down behind the squeeze buttons. Here's some pics on how to do that if anyone's interested.

I took a sample video just now on how okay it works. Sometimes if its too close to the end of the desk it won't work, so I keep it close to the back as you can see in the video.

Pic 1, Pic 2 and Video.

Oh and there's a tip in iTunes I know about I'll post when I get back.

Guess I got stuff to add to my porfolio =)

to really catch up on what I'm missing: lots of homework I put off which is really BAD (I hope I'm not getting senoritis, haha). All I talk about now a days is college college college..it's quite boring now to think about. I will be applying to U. Hartford tomorrow so I'm eager about that :) but other than that, I still need to get Letters of Rec., to get transcripts (for scholarships and applications), and to write an uber amount of essays.

I KEEP FORGETTING IT'S WEDNESDAY! I gotta' yell that, since I've asked like 5 people today... oh man, I've gotta' type my essay for English when I get home. Then I gotta write an essay for a scholarship due next week...oh forget that, I'll do it on Friday.

Hope everyone's well. I've been home for about an hour today since 7:50 this morning and now its just after 8:30PM Wednesdays are the longest day of the week.....

I am split in two about what to do. A lot of little internal conflicts here and there that I really don't like. I think November is a great time to think about goals for the new year, don't you think? I'm tired of trying to live life just going by.

It really makes you think what you live for. To live then die? Little conflicts you have here and there..do they really matter? Should the people you dislike really be a part of your life? Well so many questions...I can't think right now..maybe thinks will make sense tomorrow.

continues throughout this week. Lots to do, so little time. CSU application deadlines on the 30th, which I'm not worried about, but I also was thinking about updating my empty myspace, which I won't link because it's so not updated, haha. I also need to get a move on with Thunderbird. See here for more information about the whole thing. I just got to get it done by Friday because I eagerly promised someone.

I can't wait until winter break seriously. I'm about to go insane with all the assignments and homework that we have this year...it's crazy. Essay after essay after analysis after current event...oh seven more months until summer.. :)
