Bitchy

I don't know, I've felt kind of bitchy and on edge all day today. Maybe it's PMS or something, I don't know. I thought I might cry for a minute in Yoga class today, and then like everyone on the road just annoyed me today. :p

Anyway, my research group has to totally realign our survey, as I expected, however not as expected, we're basically changing our hypothesis again. Which means I need to get the survey revamped and email it to her so she can check it, and then perhaps email it to my group also, so they all know what's going on.

I think it's just one of those days where you feel like your head's gonna explode if you think about anything longer then 2 minutes.

Boys on the Brain

I've had boys on the brain for the last several days now, and it's bloody annoying. Seriously, I can't keep my brain on anything for more then like 10 minutes without boys poping up. I'm on one of those like hormonal trips or something where like every guy gets like more attractive. It's highly destracting, makes normal daily functioning much more challenging. Especially since it's like midterms and this week is full of due dates for projects and exams.

On a totally other note, it's started raining out, like just tonight, like just did since the last time I looked outside. It's not currently raining, but the streets are all wet. And it was all grey and cloudy all day today, actually I guess it was yesterday, since it's like 4 am and all now. Could just tell the sky was waiting to start raining. Not a big suprise though, it was in the weather forecast.

Back to boys, there is of course a particular boy at the center of this madness, but it extends beyond to like every guy I walk past. All the guys in my classes are suddenly that much cuter. And I've now changed my computer wallpaper from a very cute but fully clothed black & white of Ian Thorpe, to one of him with no shirt and his underwear sticking out the top of his shorts. Looking all tan and buff from the Olympics. And cause I couldn't fit his whole torso the proper way, I've turned the photo on it's side so I can see him from waist to head... it's totally gratuitious, but oh so HOT!!!

Portland

So, I went to Portland this last weekend, cause my fam is thinking of moving there in like less then a year, that or Seattle, which I'm going to go check out over Thanksgiving. Portland was really pretty, we didn't do a lot other then drive around an look at the city, but it was fun.

I think it could be a nice, cool place to live. Although the thought of really leaving California is a little weird. I know California is over priced and has increasingly freaky weather... and is at times excessively hot even in the middle of Sept and Oct.... or February. *L* I guess it'll just be one of those things where you can take the girl out of California, but you can never take the California out of the girl.
