   I'm digging this song SO MUCH! ♥♥



2. JURY DUTY!
   Remember back, like, a month ago, when I said I had jury duty? I don't think I ever said anything on here about it, but that day they said they were looking for jurors to be on a long two-month criminal case and I was called back to be a potential juror. Anyway, I had to go back, like, three times. The first callback was to get more info on the case and to fill out questionaires, the second one was a follow-up on the questionaires, and the last callback was for final selection, which was on Tuesday. This was my first time going through this process because the other 2-3 times I've had jury duty, I just showed up on the first day and my name was never called, lol.
   
   So yeah, on Tuesday, they were making the final juror selections -- if you've never experienced it, the way it works is they have 12 potential jurors sitting in the box and each side would take turns excusing one person from the box and then the next potential juror would replaced the excused person until a jury is picked. I happened to be near the end of the line of potential jurors of the first set (about 50-ish people? I think they had about 100-ish potential jurors which they split into two groups), so I kinda thought they might not even get to me since it was pretty fast in the beginning and was starting to slow down, lol. They did get to me though and I was actually really nervous sitting in the box even though I didn't even have to do anything but sit there, LOL. But yeah, I think it was because the five or so people before me got excused right away, before they even got a chance to sit down in the box, so I was hoping for that too! But I ended up sitting in there for (what felt like) a long while because both sides were taking a long time deciding on who they wanted to excuse and one of the sides started passing on their turn, so I was kinda worried that I would end up on the jury! There were, like, ten other people excused while I was sitting there before I was finally excused.
   
   Anyway, that was my ridiculously boring jury duty story, LOL. I'm glad I didn't have to be on the jury for it. I mean, I don't have a job, so it's not like it would have mattered that I would be on a long case, but I don't think I could have handled the case itself. I don't think I'm suppose to talk about any details or anything, but it was a pretty big case with some pretty serious charges, so yeah.



3. CHINESE!
   We had a pinyin test in Chinese class on Tuesday! We went over the answers right away afterward and I actually did better than I expected, lol. I mean, I know I took Chinese before, but I kinda totally fail at pinyin and I think pinyin is, like, the hardest part of learning Chinese -- I mean, besides the speaking part, LOLOLOL.
   
   Anyway, while we're talking about class, can I say how much I hate semester system? Because seriously, quarter system is definitely more my speed! 16 weeks in one class seems like FOREVER, especially considering we'd be halfway through if this was quarter system. I'd forgotten how torturously LONG semester system was and how slow it was too. I'm tired of going to class already, lol, but May is so far away. =(

That's pretty much it. As for job hunting, it's whatever. Same old, same old. Send out resumes, hear back except for once-in-a-blue-moon, and then nothing. =/
