I’ll wear that dress if you wear that tie and we’ll dance through the night...

  1. MIDTERM!
    So on Thursday we had a midterm in my 443 class and I totally meant to print out all the material before leaving for NY so that I could study in NY, but alas, I ran out of time and didn’t get around to it, so that meant Wednesday night, after getting back, was full of printing and studying. I kind of gave up around 3-ish in the morning even though I didn’t finish going through the material because I was tired and still kind of on NY time. I woke up around 9-ish on Thursday and did a quick skim through the rest of the stuff I didn’t get to and didn't even have time to review anything before I had to get to class. =( The midterm kind of sucked because there were some questions I knew I needed to review and I didn’t get a chance to really absorb it when I went through everything. I’m kind of sad now because I don’t really think I did well enough to get an A on that midterm and I was one point from an A on the last one and there’s only the final left and I really want an A in this class! ;_; So annoyingggg!


  2. STUDIO!
    On Thursday, our professor emailed us and said that he would be coming around to talk to us on Friday and that we had to catch up to Step #5 (which was due two weeks ago and extended to last week before we left) and have it all printed to go over. Needless to say that I was so not there and, honestly speaking, I was still stuck somewhere around Step #3. That obviously meant an all-nighter to catch up as much as I could. -_- Of course, I probably would have gotten more done if I didn’t sit around and catch up on the last two episodes of Glee before getting to work, but whatever, no one said I was the brightest crayon in the box, LOL. At least I knew that it was a bad idea -- I just did it anyway. XP (I am definitely talking about those two episodes later in this post, lol.)

    Anyway, Tara and I were sitting in our living all night working on stuff -- I was mostly working on Revit and trying to come up with a working model of my building so I could get my exploded axonometric done (Step #4). Revit hated me all night, probably because my building is freakin’ huge and I don’t have a lot of memory on my laptop, so by the time class started, I still was where I was before I started -- a little bit of everything but nothing done. Luckily (or not so luckily) he said he was going in alphabetical order in his e-mail and when I was in class, I realized that meant that I was last, lol. So there I was working my ass off trying to get stuff done and then I eventually got a lame axon printed that looked kind of horrible and showed program more than anything else, but at least it was something printed. I also had my hand-drawn section that I drew up in CAD, but I didn’t have time to print it. -_- At least it was hand-drawn and done though, since in his e-mail he said he didn’t want to look at the computer. (Moot point because when he came to me, we ended up looking at my Revit model anyway.)

    So there I was waiting for my turn and I stopped working on my Revit model when it was about two people before me because I knew that if I drew anything, it would take forever to finish regenerating and I didn’t want to take that risk for when he got to me. And so he finally made it to me around 5:57PM, of course, and then I kind of showed him where I was and then he asked about my section model and I said that I didn’t know what the facade looks like still and he was like, "I feel like you still don’t have a building concept" blah blah and that was why I’m still struggling with the facade and stuff. And really, I suppose that is kind of true, but mostly it’s just been me being focused on other little things in my project. -_-

    Then he was going on about it might be because I didn’t think about how the terminal was laid out and how I should reconsider the configuration because I laid out the gates based on the information from codes and more of an engineering point of view or whatever. IDK, it was ridiculous because he started talking about how I can’t do an SFO layout because of space restrictions, then brought up LAX and how things were laid out there and the whole time I was thinking, WHAT. THE. FUCK!

    Seriously! I mean, just saying I should reconsider the configuration made me see red because that was my problem in the first place, was listening to him tell me to think about it more and that’s why I was behind in Step #3 (floor plan, elevation, section) since he told me to reconsider my layout at that point too! And back then, I actually HAD an oval shaped layout that he was talking about and he didn’t really like it -- I didn’t really like it either because I didn’t feel like that was working for the site and seriously, he was basically telling me to go back to where I was at about 4-5 weeks ago and that is just not on! >O Also, I totally DID think about how I was laying things out and there was a reason I decided on doing a long terminal and I was so annoyed he was trying to sell me on the stupid centralized layout thing.

    Of course I argued my point and talked about how I felt that the layout I had worked better for the area because of the circumstances surrounding the airport’s use and stuff, though I probably could have argued it better if I wasn’t so tired from pulling an all-nigher and then having to wait until the end to talk to him. But I still got my point across, I guess, because he backed off trying to get me to change things and told me to do some precedent studies about linear airports and other buildings and how they dealt with the facade and to figure out what the building wants to look like and stuff and to tell him what I want to do on Monday. (Thanks for giving me nothing to work with! I mean, it’s not as if I was going to do that anyway. -_-)

    I haven’t worked on my project at all today, but I figure this is a break and tomorrow I will get down to business and figure out my facade. How is this already week eight?! Two more weeks until finals and 12 more weeks until I’m done with school for good!


  3. CHARLENE KAYE! (And Darren Criss, lol.)
    How much do I love Dress and Tie (featuring Darren Criss)?! It’s so lovely, I think I’ve been playing it on repeat almost all day, since I found it. (Why yes, I am slowly catching up on my f-list, how did you know? XP) I didn’t even know who Charlene Kaye was ‘til today, but I love her voice. ♥ I mean, check out this video of Skin and Bones!


    How cute (and heartbreaking) is that video?! Also, the behind the scenes! Also also, Darren Criss! I don’t know anything about them, but they would totally look cute together (whatever, I totally ship it, LOLOL. XP) I mean, look at them! They are so cute together singing A Whole New World (even when she messed up and he corrected her, lol). ♥ I must go download some of her music later, lol. XP

    EDIT: Now there's a video!
    Darren's FACE! Especially at the end! ♥___________♥ Definitely ship Darren/Charlene! XP


  4. GLEE!
    I wrote this the other day when I watched these episodes, lol.

    Glee 2x13 -- Comeback
    I totally cracked up about the Gummi-Vites, LOL. But really, I hate Schuester still! If he could just go away forever, I would be super happy. But anyway, I still love all of Emma's ridiculous pamphlets (I'm too depressed to open this pamphlet, LOLOLOL) and how she got Sue to join Glee and how she got Will to go along with it. XP

    I kind of think Sam is adorable, LOL. I just like how smitten he is with Quinn and it breaks my heart that Quinn likes Finn instead and actually cheated on him with Finn. ;_; But seriously, that "flashback" of Quinn saving Finn's life was ridiculous and Sam's reaction was so cute (even though it was slightly heartbreaking). And so much LOL at Sam saying that Justin Beiber is rockin' and then doing his hair and testing it out before doing it for Glee, LOL. Then there was everyone's reactions when they noticed his hair, especially Puck with the lips comment, LOLOLOL. (Sue saying "Sweet Porcelain" was kind of sweet when Schue mentioned Kurt. ♥♥) Anyway, the whole performance of Baby was totally adorable, even with all of Sam's ridiculous dance moves, I kind of cracked up a little at Mike's expression during the performance, LOL. And then afterwards, all the guys want in! "We totally underestimated the power of the Beibs!" LOLOL, I can't even!!! (I still dislike Artie, I won't even lie. Why can't he stop talking like a douchebag? And UGH FINN! You are such a douche, I hate you too!)

    Brittany is so adorable with her leg warmers on her arms! I just love her forever, she's so cute! (Also, anthem being the bottom of an ant's pants, LOLOL!) The shot of Rachel's To-Do List, before she saw the whole leg warmers on arms trend was hilarious too -- seriously, "friend request Barba Streisand again!!" and "Avatar on Ice Audition" with stars around it! And then Rachel telling Brittany to dress like her -- Sexy School Girl Librarian Chic! I was totally dying when she said that! (LOLOLOL, shopping at Kids-R-Us!) And then when they finally come in dressed the same!!! IDEK, Brittany just pulls it off, okay? "Totally, most teachers think that by cutting class it will improve my grades" -- oh Brittany!!! And then Quinn and Santana and even Tina rock the look! And they look SO CUTE in it! Definitely agree with Santana’s assessment of hot and smart ♥♥ Why are the girls in Glee so pretty?!

    When the guys walked in to Glee getting their Beiber style on, I was cracking up. I mean, everyone's faces! And then Puck!!! I totally died at Puck with the hair attached to the hoodie!!! Their rendition of Somebody to Love was totally catchy, lol. All the reactions from the girls, though, was the most epic part. I mean, they are so over the top, especially Rachel, LOL, she was hilarious! XP

    I'm kind of with the whole Puck/Lauren program because they are just too cute, IDEK. Puck smiling after talking to Lauren was totally adorable. *_________* And then the scene where Puck is watching her practice wrestling and he totally had heart eyes and it just made me smile! And his advice to Lauren! And "Can I touch your knockers now?" LOLOL, ILU Puck. XP And then Lauren singing I Know What Boys Want -- it's kind of horrible, but hilariously awesome at the same time. I love how she was all nervous and made that nervously sound and face (I do that sometimes too, LOL!) before starting. ♥ And then everyone in their underwear! OMG, totally dying!

    Santana and Sam in the library! I'm sorry, I just can't get on that train because I totally ship Wes/Santana (TOO ADORABLE!), but I'll admit that Sam/Santana could be cute too, lol. I love how dorky Sam is (whatever Santana, dorky is cute!) and he totally has the most adorable smile! But, oh, Santana, telling him how it is with the whole Quinn situation and then her "consider my offer!" and poor Sam, just being all heartbroken because he knows it’s true. =( I really like Sam/Quinn, but right now, I kind of rather him get with Santana. LOL, I typed that while I was watching and then suddenly, they're going out at the end of the episode! XP I'm glad Sam broke it off -- I always get annoyed when people stay together after one person finds out the other cheated (Greek, season one, I'm looking at you!). I hope that Sam and Santana are cute together, though I still think Wes/Santana is cuter. XP (Of course Brittany/Santana is OTP, but I would totally be down for Wes/Santana/Brittany, just saying, lol.)

    I'm not sure if I said it before here, but the Glee version of MCR's Sing is absolutely horrible! They totally killed the song and not in a good way! Also, what is that ridiculous plaid that they're all wearing?! EWWWW!! Please never dress like that again, it hurts my eyes! (But Rachel should totally wear more jeans b/c they actually look cute on her, lol. Seriously, this is off-topic, but what is with TV and their constant need to put the main girls in skirts and dresses?! Girls wear pants too, damnit!) And then them all voting on Sing for Regionals just blows my mind because EWWWW, it sucked! Good thing it's probably not going to be used anymore with Sue coaching Aural Intensity, lol. XP (NGL, I totally was hoping Sue would say she was coaching The Warblers, LOLOL, because how epic would that be? XP) Then there was the end scene with Finn giving Rachel a pep-talk and seriously, why are you suddenly okay again, Finn?! >O I can't keep up with the characterization in this show -- it just jumps all over the place and right when I was semi-okay with Finn, he had to turn douche and now he has to sound like the okay version of himself and I just need them to stick with one -- preferably the one I am semi-okay with, but even if it’s the douche one, stay a douche so I can fully hate on you! XP


    2x14 -- Blame It On the Alcohol
    “Key dollar sign ha”, LOLOLOL. That is all I can say about that opening scene. XP

    OMFG, Rachel's song about her headband!!! I can't even!!! Seriously, totally epic, I fully enjoyed how ridiculous it was. XD Finn is kind of slow that he didn’t catch on about the headband thing until that far -- I caught on after the first stanza, LOL. Then Rachel deciding to have a party so she can live life and write about it! And Everyone's ridiculous phone calls to each other when they could have just met up -- seriously, Brittany and Santana are talking to each other on the phone while standing next to each other!)

    Party time -- OMG, how lame is Rachel's party, LOLOL. I just feel bad for everyone there. And Kurt and Blaine showing up (Rachel, WTF, why didn’t YOU invite them, why did they have to get Finn to take them?!) and Kurt in his red shirt (OMG HOT) and Blaine not in uniform (SO CUTE!) and then Rachel making rules, LOL, and I'm just like, girl, why so embarrassing! (Also, eww, what is that dress she is wearing?! It offends my eyes!!!) And then suddenly, LIKE A G6! Everyone is so ridiculous and over the top, LOL. Also, Santana doing body shots off of Brittany!!! And Kurt, what are you?! Seriously, his dancing, so embarrassing! ;_; (Tears of joy, I don't know how to show that via smileys, LOL.) He's still trying to impress Blaine! And then cut to Blaine doing his crazy dancing, LOLOL, and “clearly he doesn’t have the same concern”! I can't get over these boys!

    Then there was Finn talking about all the stereotypical drunks -- Santana was my favorite, lolol. (Seriously, Sam’s FACE! LOLOLOLOL!) And Mercedes and Tina being happy girl drunks is so cute! But poor Rachel -- there could have been a better way to say what he did. =(

    SPIN THE BOTTLE! Santana sitting it out and saying she OWNS that guppy mouth, LOLOLOL! (Santana called Brittany and Sam honeys! I find that ridiculously cute, LOL. Also, Sam’s messy hair after the kiss! ADORABLE!) Then the Blaine/Rachel kiss! Rachel is going to rock Blaine's world! NEGL, that kiss was kind of hot, LOL. Poor Kurt though, being right there! And then "Your face tastes awesome!" LOLOL! And Kurt's face! Also, the Don't You Want Me duet between Blaine and Rachel!!! Too cute! Seriously, Blaine was bouncing around like there was no tomorrow, it was so cute! (Also, Mike and Tina dancing with Mike moving Tina around b/c she was drunk/tired was too adorable!) Poor Kurt looking on though! </3 But what's with Blaine's dialogue when he kissed Rachel again? Seriously, it was so bad. And then Kurt coming up to Rachel and smiling before putting his serious face back on and Rachel being all excited about it, lol. Kurt’s face during the whole time Rachel was talking was AMAZING, LOLOLOL.

    Overall, I thought this episode was kind of crap in the Kurt/Blaine department, but the overall cracky-ness kind of wins me over, LOL. XP

    That’s all for now.
