not ==
it's just first week and there was not a night i slept before 2am... granted that's partially due to discovering the stupid bejeweled app on facebook, (btw, i don't seem to have any competition at all in bejeweled... can anyone beat my score? XD) i really did study though... as part of my "no-more-failing" initiative, i even did some studying on the weekend of first week~ hopefully all this nerdiness will pay off haha..
at least school is fun this quarter though.. the hours are longer, but they're mostly lab classes ^^ meaning i dont' have to study-study as much heheh, but still... with something like 8 classes and 3 labs, it's pretty intense~ i made my first impressions the other day~ they're pretty fun to do, but a little messy hahaoh, and thanks to gossip-girl splee, we found out that our bench instructor, who is extremely social and pretty funny, was sued for insurance fraud in '96 haha
"The Los Angeles dentist recently pled guilty to eight counts of health-care fraud, and was sentenced July 15 to three years probation and 10 months of electronically monitored home detention, according to the U.S. Attorney's office. He was also ordered to pay restitution and had his license revoked by the state Board of Dental Examiners."
i guess it's safe to say he won't be teaching our ethics course...
so those of you who know me know that i keep tabs of (almost) all my expenses in excel like so:
and i've noticed changes in my spending habits from 2007...
first of all, i've been spending a lot less on food... in the first quarter of 2007 i spent an average of $408.26 on food, but in 2009 i spent $304.67... also, you can see that i've been spending a lot less on entertainment and car/gas, but more on school... i guess what you can draw from this is that i now am more studious, have less fun, eat less, and walk more.
one thing that bothers me, though, is that my "other" category seems to have increased... i don't like that because i don't know what i spend it on, since it has everything from the 1.5tb hard drive i got to the listerine toothpaste i use... oh well.
speaking of expenses, this is quite funny, in a wow-that-kind-of-sucks-for-you kind of way http://consumerist.com/5198894/worst-april-fools-ever-online-brokerage-zecco-pretends-to-give-away-millions-panics-when-people-start-spending dumb customers, dumber company, even dumber april fool's joke..
after i found fmylife.com, i found other funny sites too: mymomisafob.com and mydadisafob.com, which chronicle stories of fob parents and the fobby things they do.... so funny :P
and finally, i decided to be a good son and get a haircut since my dad's been badgering me about my hair being too long... it's really short now compared to what it was before, but still, the first thing he said when he saw me was, "when are you going to get a haircut".... i saw him the day after i cut my hair.... i'm growing it out again -_-;;
