What's the story behind your username?

My username comes from a game. I was trying to come up with a name I liked for my Lj and I looked over and my little sisters game was sitting next to the computer. Pajama Sam: There is no need to hide when it is dark outside. I liked the sound of darkoutside, so I used it.

I finished my ENGL final this morning. I have two on-line finals due by tomorrow afternoon. I have a music final at 12:30 and then a Science Final Wednesday afternoon. I have written three of four final reviews for my music class (also due at 12:30) and I still have a lesson plan due for my ENGL class by the 10th.
I was freaking about the work and studying, but I have managed to get through most of it with minimal craziness (though meadowhawk and waterfall_sh have seen most if not all of my crazy this week.)
I started the 50bookchallenge as of Dec. 1 and I am reading Tales from the Teachers Lounge by Rob Wilder. I think he is hilarious and the stories are also very funny. I'm about half way through it now. I will bump up my reading level over the break because I know I am going to be swamped next semester.
I am taking a 6 credit hour writing class that is required to teach language arts. I've heard horror stories and good stories coming out of Dr. Levy's class so I guess I will have to wait and see.
I start TOSS (teaching of specific subjects) this fall and will hopefully be student teaching by fall '09. Then I'm done!

So tired

2006-01-23T17:48:31Z

Saturday night watched movies with butafli and la_pretresse till around 4:00 am. Sunday we woke up around 11:30. Left the house around one and went to Little Five points. We met up with lavender_gurl and spentabout five hours just going through shops. There is one store called something like world market, but they had a little deli in the bcak that was serving all vegan or vegitarian foods with a carribean twist. We got to sample ungoat curry while la_pretresse was accosted by the guy with the anti-bush posters.
We were going to go to earthshaking, but they closed at six so we headed back towards kennesaw for dinner at Bahamma Breeze. After Dinner butafli, la_pretresse, lj-less Michelle and I went and saw the new Underworld movie. I thought it was good though a little too much gore for my taste. Other than that it was a pretty good movie. We went back to my house to get their cars and butafli and la_pretresse decide to stay. We end up still awake around 5:00 this morning. Then when in bed la_pretresse decides to be awake and talkie (hehe). So I fell asleep around 6:30 and woke up at 8:00 (well that is when the alarm went off at least) and I made it to my 10:00 class. Yea me!

Tonight I went to the second sunday series led by blyssmouse and keith_dragon. It was really interesting to hear all the tips on how to remember more of your dreams. After that butafli,lavender_gurl, and I went to the Marietta Diner. We got there around 10:00PM and left around 5:00AM. We were there through two shifts of people. To the point where our waiter had us go ahead and pay because he had to go home.
Driving back to butafli's house we're talking about seeing spirits and other such kind-of-creepy things and out of no where a solid white rabbitt comes shooting out of the bushes and runs inbetween the wheels of my car. Both of us scream and freak out because things popping out of nowhere not so good.
My theory on the hitting the animals thing is I will try to avoid the accident because neither of us (the animal or I) need that, but itf it is me or them I'm not going to swerve off the road risking my life to save the animal. I would go as far as to say if I stop and honk and the animal doesn't move I would probably continue on my way. It is evolution in action. If the animal is too stupid to move then it needs to stop breeding and making stupid babies.
That may be just me, but oh well.

So sleepy...

2006-01-13T07:19:24Z

Today has been long. Woke up walked the dog around 8:00 went to class at like 10:30. spent the rest of the day sewing until my later class. I showed up for my Poli sci class that strated at 4:30 fifteen minutes later still no professor so I start talking to the fairly cute Christiaan kid and two other guys. We all decide to stay hoping that Dr. Barrow will eventually show up and give us our syllabus (which we have yet to recieve). No such luck so we sat there and talked until about six then went our separate ways.
Then, went to Serendipity for classes and was told the for the four people who had never led an esbat were going to get our chance... TONIGHT. That was a little nerve racking at first, but all came out okay I think. Although now that I sit here we should have straightened the living room before we left. I am sorry.
I got home got out of my car pressed the LOCK button. And started to head inside. I then realized that I had just laid my keys on the center consul. So now my keys are in the car along with the spares because I forgot to take them out the last time and now I am locked out of my car with a class tomorrow at 10:00
He's here. Yay to POP-A-LOCK! They do it for almost half the price of the other ten places I called and I might be able to get rembersed by my insurance company.

Friday night I went to PPN with butafli just in time to hug everyone goodbye. So we decided to go downtown an find something to o. We ended up just driving around for about an hour. Then we went to my house and sat and talked for a while.
Saturday I went to blyssmouse's party. It was lots of fun. Played craps most of the night. Had henna done by elizabethjoy it came out really well. Had pictures taken of me in the psuedo Jazz club type dress (thanks to walkingbear) and I will post when I get them.

Started school Thursday. Monday's are my busy days. I love my classes thus far though.

Hauling Wood

2005-12-29T02:17:38Z

Today I spent about five hours stacking and spliting about three chords of wood. Not by myself, mind you, but still that was alot of work. With all the fallen trees down here my uncle has put up a shed to dry age the wood so it can be used for fire in the house. The shed is about twenty feet by about ten feet and it is twelve feet high. It is already full so we are expangin out with rebar and tarps. One of the neighbors has a shed almost exactly like it and alot of that wood went there. That is three trailor (not truck) loads of wood. That is enough wood to last one house hold about two years burning continuously through the winter.

Other than helping out on the farm there is nothing to do here. I wish I could catch up on my list of pagan books I need to read, but I fear that would be greatly looked down upon. Instead I am reading a book called "Four Spirits". It is about the civil rights movment in Birmingham and it shows the story through a wide set of characters and is just now begining to weave their stories together.

Again I miss you guys!

Since last we spoke...

I loved yule at la_pretresse's even though only three of us actually stayed up all night to great the sun. The ritual was fun and the drunken debauchery betweeen the times at the fireside was great as well.

I really miss hanging out with people. Spending time with my family is great and all but I'd like some time with friends scattered in here as well. So far while in Sartinville I have helped put out hay been to two church services within a 16 hour period (Christmas eve service at 6:00 and church at 10:00 the next morning) fed the calves bottles, fed the thirty two cats and eight dogs and ridden the four wheeeler for hours on end. I now can tell that my very southern Mississippi accent is back and in full swing though I will try and tone it down when I return. I won't be leaving here until friday morning which means that by about 6:00 friday I will be back in Atlanta. Untill then

What is everyone doing for New Years?

You may ask me three questions, no matter how personal or strange, and I will answer them honestly. However, if you ask, you must repost this in your journal so others may ask you...

Fun stuff

2005-12-11T22:22:22Z

Friday night went to see chicken little with Daniel. The date went well.
Saturday I saw Narnia with Gary Cat Mom and Julie. It was an awesome movie! Mr. Tomas, although a goat-man, was really cute.

Second Break of the night

2005-12-06T07:46:28Z

I took my Spanish oral final and got a 96% on it. If I finish the stupid quia stuff I should have an A in that class.
I think I failed my math test yet again. I took too long on the first section so had ten minutes remaining to complete four problems worth seven points a piece and I only got partial answers on the four remaining because I did not have time to finish.
I'm not sure what to think about history. He is allowingus to either take the Final on the last scheduled day of class or on the monday after that. I'm not sure which I want to do. Probably the later as all this weekend and all today and on into tuesday (today I guess) I am working on my Research paper which is due Tuesday at 2:30pm.
Wednesday and Thursday I will be working on the Quia workbooks that have piled up. That leaves no time to study for anything else. I swear, the week before finals is always worse than the actual finals week.

In other news I will be driving back down to Sartinville to see my Family for the week of christmas then back here for New Years. If I'm not dead by then.

By thursday after noon I will be done with all classes and will then only have 3 finals to worry about. Yay! I will study for them this weekend!

Then I am free until the second week of January!

Had the first math test over new ( to me ) things and I think I failed it. well maybe not that bad, but It won't be a good grade.I completly blanked on what the right and left hand tendancies for a cubic function are and what form they are written in. Anyways I now have a bad headache. I don't get headaches often, but when they come they are bad.
I spent an extra twenty minutes on my test so I had no time to go get something for the headache so I am now dying in English. I do really hate all the BS that is MLA. Documentation although occasionally needed should not be this complicated.

Arghh!

For those of the wednesday night group:

2005-11-12T17:37:37Z

For those of the wednesday night group:

I propose that we meet in a public place (ie Borders or somewhere) to discuss the future of the group and to define where and what this group will become.
Although I was not a founding member of this group I do enjoy the company and hope that as a group we can come up with a solution to the problems that we are having and can find a way to deal with future problems.

In other news, I am leaving for Charlotte as we speak. I have tickets to Varekai (Cirque du Soleil) for tonight. I am so excited!

School

2005-11-08T19:22:51Z

Although I have taken and passed ( with flying colors I might add) a large portion of the classes I am taking now, I am finally moving into the part I have not completed. The papers and assignments are piling up. I am going to have to cut back on some of the extra cirricular stuff I have been doing such as staying out till 3 or 4 in the morning on Mondays and Wednesdays.

Fall Fling

2005-10-10T20:34:18Z

I really enjoyed fall fling this year. I usually go to festivals and take a class or two each day. I hang out at the drum ircles at night and then return to friends. This festival I mostly stayed around camp or people from the camp. It was more relaxing. I loved hanging out with you guys!

Eye doctor

2005-10-06T16:42:59Z

I went to get my vision tested today because I can't see things that are far away like driving and rying to read exit signs from a ways back or reading the projector screens in class. I am slighty nearsighted. I have ordered a pair of glassses and should have them in 7-10 business days.

Stuff to do

2005-10-05T21:14:18Z

At this point my list of things to do before I leave on friday is about 30 items long. I hope to finish some of them tonight though school is getting in the way. I have to pack clothes on camping stuff and bedding and all that as well as figure out what to do about food. I have not been to a festival where I was not a part of the PA kitchen. Is there any other option than bringing everything on my own? I know at some of the festivals past there has been someone running the kitchen at the hills is that there for fall fling? Just wondering if anyone knew. Though I could go look it up. I think I'll do that.

School is going well. I made a 95 on my Henna presentation in Ancient World history and that one presentation was 25% of my grade I haven't made anything less than a 90 on english papers thus far and I have at least a high B in algebra. The only class I am worried about is spanish we just took our first test of the semester monday night I won't know what I got until next monday.

The weekend after fall fling is going to be spent cleaning out and organizing my appartment. That will be good for me I think.
