My Sanity Pulse has Flatlined

Nice blog title right? I have to admit that i didn't come up with it, i have to give credit to Lindsay who tweeted that to me after he found out what i had just signed up for for my Fall classes!

Okay so seeing as i already mentioned it above here's what my Fall semester looks like...

Monday/Wednesday
AJS212 (Administration of Justice)- Juvenile Justice Procedures

*POS110 (Political Science)- American National Government
*-This is what brought on Lindsay's tweet "I just checked @SammyClaire's sanity pulse... OMG she's flatlining!"*

Tuesday/Thursday

SOC101 (Sociology)- Introduction to Sociology

ENG102 (English)- FirstYear Composition

So there yah go! Comment below if you agree with Lindsay =)
I realized i haven't blogged for 2weeks and i know i have a lot to share. So i shall start from where i left off which was here.

I didn't see the new Ice Age, i went with Dad and Nick to see Transformers 2 which i am soo thankful that i did! Because i LOVED it =) They left it open for a 3rd one which i really hope they intend to make!

I can't remember what happened over the weekend so im guessing it wasn't much. Last weekend i had lunch with Jen at Chile's which was yummy before heading over to Matt and Kelsey's house-warming party (actually not sure if it was the weekend just past or the one after i saw Transformers?)

Okay so i'll move onto this past week! On Thursday 30th July i went shopping with Kelsey and bought Gossip Girl season 1! And on a side note i have already finished it, LOVED it =)



Thursday night i stayed out at the mall and saw The Orphan with Kayce. I was freaking out a lot before i even was at the theatre! But i stuck it out and im glad i did because it wasn't as scary as i thought it would be! But man that little girl was f**king creepy/insane! I mean look at her!






On Saturday i had my driving school class! i wasn't learning to drive before you ask! It was just the class so i could get my permit... Which i did!!! =) YAY! So im legal to start learning to drive! Hehe. Dad and i went to the DMV so i could get my permit (license). That's the certificate they gave us when we finished the class and passed.
This past week has been so busy with school seeing as it was the FINAL week for Philosophy! As im writing this i have finished with philosophy forever! =) I really don't think i will take it again. If i ever tweet or blog that i do intend to take it please knock some sense into me! Promise?
I'm really scared as to what score i'll get on today's final test =S It was really hard, hopefully i got a C. Over the 4 tests i have gotten..
Test 1- F
Test 2- C
Test 3- B
Test 4- ? This was the one i had today
Its Thursday night! Going out for dinner and drinks with Phyllis, dad, and Mike (their best friend). Dad is being the sober driver! Grandma is coming to babysit =) Life is good. Haha.
Hmm what else do i need to share? This is the point where i know i need to stop writing because i can't remember anything else =) No doubt i'll blog again later tonight or tomorrow
Have a great Thursday or Friday in NZ and have a great weekend if i don't talk to you before then =)
XxX

Beer + Movies + Philosophy

Well it's that time again! Thursday night or early Friday morning- whichever way you want to look at it! I'm saying Thursday night because i have yet to get any sleep But s'ok it's only 1am. Though i have put on Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Sooooo this past weekend i said i had my driving school thingy. Well they didn't have any room for that day, so i am signed up for August 1st. Then i can tell you all about it!!
Also i said i was going to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and OMG let me tell you that i LOVED it!! It was sooo great! Well worth it. Tom Felton has grown so much as an actor and his ability to portray Draco's vunerable side made me feel sorry for Draco was astounding! I cannot wait for it to come out on dvd =)
Before the movie dad and i went to the Codfather to see what their Fish and Chips were like, and omg they were soo yummy! On the menu they also have Pineapple Fritters, Bangers and Mash, and Shepherds pie along with alot of other yummy English food. Reminds me of home.

Tonight had been so much fun for me! After i sent off a long email about Spiritual Monism to Lindsay i went outside and was talking to Phyllis, my step-mum, and this was around 8ish. She told dad to get me a beer, so were out there drinking beer talking about everything practically. This was like the FIRST time i have ever manged to FINISH a whole bottle of beer! I mean i've drunk it before but i never finish it, and tonight i finished 3. I mean i'm just not a beer drinker and i prefer white wine, but the reason i never (used to) finish a beer was because it'd get like warmish and thats just yuck. Plus sometimes the taste can make me gag, but Miller Light was yummy.
So i am feeling the effects which is odd but it has been so long since i've drunk alcohol, i mean the last time was before i moved over here in Nov! Now i've moved onto finishing my glass of coke which is giving me a sugar-rush. And im also eating a pop-tart. Mmm.
Also me and Phyllis talked about who we had on our list of guys we wouldn't say no to. We made dad go through his too. Haha i'll do a blogpost on that =)

This past week in Philosophy has been sooo hard! Today, well Thursday, we had this MONSTER test that was based over 3 chapters- Material monism, Spiritual monism, and Dualism. I have no idea how i went! Best i can hope for is a C grade.

Tuesday night was also a fun night. Phyllis told me that when her and dad's close friend Mike comes to stay with us that on Thursday, when i have finished with philosophy Aug 6th, were all going out to a Mexican bar/grill/restaurant for dinner and margaritas!! Haha she told me she wants to see me drunk before i go to Uni. So were going to the only place she knows where passion fruit margaritas are sold.

Tomorrow Jake wants so see Ice Age 3 in 3D and last time i checked Nick wanted to see Transformers 2. I'm pretty sure i'm gonna go and see Ice Age with Phyllis and Jake.

2 weeks exactly until Philosophy is over and i cannot wait!!! Literally counting down the days! Also i am in a joyful mood because we don't have class on Monday. We have no idea why- Mr Dickerson never told us.

Well it's 2am and i'm gonna go and brush my teeth and finish watching my movie, just over an hour into it.
So goodnight or good morning depending on when you read this so i might be awake =)

X

UPDATE
I was actually up until just after 3am this morning. Its when my movie finished. What sucks is i woke up around 7.30, but i'm good at functioning on little sleep. Though i wish i could have had an hour longer but 4hrs is ok i guess.

Elven Princess + Driving School + Harry Potter

Aloha bloggy babys.. I am watching LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring (extended edition). I love Legolas and Pippin the best. Who are your favourites?
The guy who plays Haldir, one of the Elven people who lives in the forrest, is kiwi actor Craig Parker.

This past week has been hectic but only in the form of my Philosophy class. Mr Dickerson seems to have his favourite students that he asks for answers to his questions- unfortunately i am one of those few! I have no idea why because i hardly answer his questions. Though some of the discussions are interesting, i will try and remember next week so i can share them with you all.
Though i do remember we were talking about the bible and Jesus and how he rose from the dead... well that's when Kayce leaned over and whispered "Jesus was a vampire?", that made me laugh! =) Come on it at least made you smile??

So im not sure if i mentioned it in a previous posting but i have my first ever Jury Summons coming up! August 10th to be exact. It was meant to be July 29th but i have class that day so me ans Phyllis changed it. Im nervous but excited.

I thought that i would be able to have a nice relaxing Saturday but yesterday dad told me i would be attending Driving School!! To get my permit!!! Majorly exciting =D =D then i can finally start learning to drive.

Also this Saturday dads taking me to go and see the new Harry Potter movie!! YAY! Haha i soo cannot wait. Eeep. Phyllis told dad he should take me to a movie because I've been very helpful and babysat a few times these past few weeks. I think he wants to see it too. But it'll be good- one on one time with my dad.

And I wrote about Harper's Island in a previous post.. I was right about the killer. =)

Tonight i babysat again, hence dad taking me to the movies Sat, which was fun. Nick challenged me to a rematch to the Mario game we played last time on the Wii (don't ask which one i have no clue) anyway i had won the last won. He won this won which he was happy about but then we played the same game but had Tag Teams instead of Battle. Hehe i won that! I was Princess Daisy (again0 was her last time) and my partner was Princess Peach, our team tame was Damsels in Success =) how cool. So its 2-1 and i can guarantee Nick will challenge me again soon. Plus he didn't like the fact that i bet him at his best games, where you shake the Wii remote.
**Will post pics tomorrow**

Hmm.. What else do i need to share?
I cannot think of anything else. Will do another blog with pics tomorrow and one after the movie and driving school.

Back to my movie. Onto the 2nd disc where they are staying in with the Lady of White, the Queen, played by Cate Blanchett. I like this scene because i love the Elves.
Doubt im going to watch all this tonight.

Night xx
