I got an IPOD Touch!

I was trying to think of a good title, and remembered how ambiguous titles really mess me up when I'm looking for things in previous blog posts. So yeah, I got an IPOD for Christmas. I also got sweaters. I'm ecstatic about both.

Two of my sweaters are already messed up because my cat decided to attach herself to me by the claws, and then messed up the sweaters because they're so awesome and kinda delicate. :( I am now resolved to keep my cat away from me whenever I wear one at all costs.

Apparently you need to register a credit card for your IPOD, even if you're only downloading free apps. I am suspicious, so I am putting off doing this.

Papa also got me military tested cases, and the most expensive head phones they offered, so I have some damn good quality material. This is GREAT because I have already dropped my IPod Touch....more than once. I swear I don't do it on purpose.... It just happens.....

I'm supposed to go to bf's parents' house on Thursday after I get off work (I also have work, yay!) I was uber nervous, but I'm beginning to calm down about it. The worst they can do is start to hate me, but I always seem to end up the favorite of anyone whose house I stay at, so logically I shouldn't be worried. Unfortunately, logic get's its ass kicked when it goes against an emotionally-charged female. Every male in the world will likely agree with that statement, along with a currently logical female. :P Yay sexism?

I'm working as an English teacher for Honda employees from Japan. I have four students, but I've only taught three students at any point in time so far. My first time teaching them by myself was last week, and they were saying how they learned a lot of useful vocabulary, and were super surprised when class ended. All of them checked their watches and were flummoxed by the time. "It's already over?!" is what they said, so I think they might have enjoyed it. I hope so, at least.

I have two more exams (one tomorrow, actually), my Women and Literature class and my Social Deviance class. I'm not all that worried about the tests, but I really want to do very well, so I'm attempting to study for them. Not sure how well that's going to turn out.....

Papa leaves on Friday to go back to work, and that's why I got the IPod early. heh. He gave me my present in the same bag I gave him his in, and explained he didn't have time to wrap it. I guess you could say we exchanged presents early this year because he won't be here.

BF got to see my family at a more normal pace, where we all got dinner at KFC (he was amazed by the amount of food mom bought), and everyone watched TV together while we ate. We ended up watching iCarly, so he was kinda disillusioned, I think. Made a comment about how shows nowadays suck. I think they're pretty interesting, and show what kids are into now, but I like psychoanalyzing and he doesn't, so I think that just illustrates our differences.

I stayed Friday and Saturday over at his apartment, actually. But not the way you all just imagined. I slept in his roommate's bed. C-kun's bed is big and comfy, so I prefer it. BF and I don't sleep well together on a twin bed, so it makes sense.

Finally, I broke my promise to pineapples, and forgot to talk to her on Sunday. I agreed to talk to her on Sunday because I thought I'd be sleeping at my own place on Saturday, and waking up early enough to be online long enough for us to chat together. Instead, my room mate kicked me out of the house apologetically so her parents could stay over, and though I woke up thinking about talking to her, by the time I actually got home, I'd forgotten. I played on the computer and studied for a few hours, but then I watched movies for the rest of the night, and only remembered again when I was laying in bed. I still feel terrible. I'm debating calling, but I'm not sure if I'd be welcome, so I'm holding off.... >.< Any advice for me?
