I swear that class could be half as long and we'd still get the same amount of work done, if only the teacher didn't waste so much time.
It's great for him to be fun and entertaining, but not when it wastes over an hour of my time.
Tyler texted me throughout the class, which was a welcome distraction. Although I am now thoroughly aware that he has feelings for me. He wants to come visit me, he even made some inuendo about staying in my dorm with me - which he couldn't do anyway, because my roommates and I agreed no boys can sleep over our dorms. (I didn't want to make that a rule... but whatever.)
Anyway, he definitely misses me and I don't know how I feel about that. A little amused, I suppose. But I don't really care either way. I'm feeling similar to Meursault in Albert Camus' The Stranger. Very detached from things that should be affecting me, emotionally.
I suggested that Tyler buy TF2 and play with me. He is now planning on doing that. I hope the -SNiGS- don't hate me for unleashing the immaturity that is Tyler upon their servers. Ehh, a hefty majority of them are just as immature as Tyler.
Hmmm...
After that I was off to my Asian Behaviors and Thought class, which was actually more interesting today. We finally touched upon actual philosophy-
she mentioned epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics. I was , however, quite frustrated because she called them "ten dollar words," and treated them like foreign words (pronounced them very slowly, repeated them a lot, etc.) even though I think they're words that everyone in a college-level philosophy course should already know.
I mean, come on, metaphysics? duh.
Hasn't anyone read Plato and Platypus Walk into a Bar... ?
I know I have, and Thom, and Chris. It's a simple enough book, it illustrates, through jokes, such concepts as previously mentioned. I would equate it to a more interesting version of Philosophy for Dummies.
Anyway, Chris started texting me in that class, and asked if I liked Haunted Houses... long story short, late september into october there is a really intense haunted house - you have to sign a waiver to even enter it! He asked if I wanted to go, so I said sure. It sounds pretty sick.
He also wants to meet up to get dinner later tonight - I invited Liz...
I cannot take any chances that he will get the wrong idea about me! Inviting Liz emphasizes that this is a friendship.

Anyway I just got back from ~*finally*~ selling my chem textbook, and now I have $100 towards seeing Matt!!
Even that small step forward makes it feel more... I don't know... within my reach, I suppose.
*On a side note, I was talking to Mike last night (well, this morning around 3AM), and he tried to offer me money to fund my trip to see Matt - he called it "The Tennessee Fund". He's been trying to help me so many ways to get together with Matt - he offered to have Matt stay in his dorm before... and now he's offering money?! I obviously said no, and then we got into a huge fight over it... we made up and whatnot, but now I just don't know what to think. It was very sweet of Mike to try to help me, especially when his best interests would not be served. So I don't know whether to trust his offers for help at face value (like he's genuinely trying to help me be happy), or to suspect an ulterior motive (showing me how sweet he is, thus winning me over - which would never happen, but guys can be delusional sometimes.)*
My Wall "Dot" (dry erase sticker)
Shutup, I just figured I would post it because it fits with today's thoughts.
I am also considering working at the Temple Owl Call Center - the offer was just made to honors students - I would basically call potential students and tell them why Temple is the right university to attend... it would be an excruciatingly boring, and somewhat deceitful job, but it would pay $8.75 an hour.
ehh... we'll see if I even qualify... it might be only for upperclassmen.

Well, I am going to go buy something to satisfy my sweet tooth, and then run off to Morality and the Law.
I will add more later, if there's anything worth adding.
