it's already november!

and i realized today there is only 3 weeks of classes left, then finals. oh my gosh. last time i really thought about it, it was in the middle of the semester. 3 weeks have already passed since then and the semester's almost done! this semester has really been flying by. i think it's the way my classes are arranged and whatnot. i don't know...i only know that each week doesn't really seem to drag. i guess each day is slightly different. even my MW or T TH classes aren't exactly the same.

georgie's birthday was on wednesday so on friday i took him out. i took him to the aquarium of the pacific in long beach. i went for a field trip on wednesday but it was cool enough to go again. i absolutely love the sea otters. if it were closer, i might buy an annual pass and just to go sit and watch the sea otters. they're always moving so it doesn't get boring. i think george enjoyed it. afterwards we were supposed to go to a restaurant for dinner but george wasn't feeling it so we saved that for another day and just went to fuddruckers. it was a nice day.

on saturday me and kelly went to pmx just to hang out. first regular con we go to that we didn't buy a badge OR get a room. so weird. it was in pasadena this year and felt really cramped. there were plenty of people [or so it seemed] so there was stuff to do and look at, but it wasn't much. we did the whole, badge-swap thing and i got to go into the exhibit hall just to look around. by the time we went to the artist's alley, the badge checker wasn't there so we just walked in. the artist's alley was so much better in my opinion. there's more things i would buy. and i did. xD there was this adorable star shaped necklace with RAINBOW SPRINKLES inside. i mean, how perfect is that?? i've made a personal quote of mine: "glitter and sprinkles make everything better!" so yeah. i had to have it. i'll be wearing it constantly for awhile.

a lot of people didn't buy badges or get a room. i wonder if pmx lost a little money this year, haha. everyone is waiting for ala now. that one is staying at the lax marriott and is a lot better. the outdoor pool area is half the hangout area. it's also kind of the "new year con" so everyone looks forward to that.

yesterday was a lazy day and at night i went to out to dinner with george and his parents for his birthday [so many birthday dinners!]. we went to woodranch and gosh, i always eat too much when i go there. the food is so good! and the portions are huge too.

as for the masquerade dance party, the venue is set, deposit is paid and people are slowly paying. we still need to get more decorations [as well as put them together], work on the music, and plan a date to see the room again. it's just about a month and a week away! i picked up my dress after alterations and found a mask. now to decide what to do with my hair.

oh! and they opened up another section for sign language. MAYBE i'll be able to actually take it this semester. after 3 years. but i don't want to get my hopes up. eh.

still got 2 weeks until i can register. hopefully the class doesn't get full. >_<
