Not In My Nature To Be Overly Excited

2009 November 3

It’s just not.  So today….went to school, got there a little early so I was in the classroom by myself.  By the way, this is the classroom without the comfortable chairs.  Apparently the University ran out of new desks to put in the classrooms.

The first class was Spanish.  Of course, the few days I get there early and do work before class starts, she gets there early and says, “Hola, chicos, blah blah blah” (she says something else but I forget and I never respond anyways).  Before class I was working on my project for aquatic biology.  I was able to find a study site for my proposal.  It’s in the U.P. of the state, prime location for what I want to do.  Anyways, since there was little pictures online of the place, I screenshot the location on Google Maps.  Right when editing the screenshot for my presentation she walks in early.

During class we were going over culture stuff, like where else in the world they speak Spanish.  Apparently in the Philippines and Israel there’s a huge Spanish speaking population.  Then we focused on the U.S. and she told us places in Michigan that had huge Spanish speaking populations, which some surprised me.  Then she said you can tell just by going to the grocery stores cause they’ll have a huge international section.  Then she did mention something I do like about Michigan, which is the multicultural factor.  Usually you hear of California or New York, but in Michigan we have huge sectors of different ethnic groups.  South West Detroit has a huge Latino population, it’s my second favorite place to be at in Detroit.  My first favorite place to be in Detroit is anywhere in Midtown, that’s where school, museums, hipster hangouts and libraries are.

Back to class stuff, then we were practicing negative and positive expressions like, “Que Fabuloso!”.  We practiced with our partners and then she wanted students to practice in front of the class.  So my partner volunteers us to go first and we have are told to do a positive expression.  My partner said something about a party and I said in my normal bland voice, “Que fabuloso!”.  Apparently that wasn’t enough.  Apparently she wanted me to say it with “enthusiasm”, “emotion”, “excitement”.  Everyone was looking at me in the class and I started laughing like look, I can’t do that.  Then in response she just said, “Que fabuloso!!”. And I keep shaking my head NO and then she said, “QUE FABULOSO!!!”.  So I gave up and said in a fake high pitch voice (kind of like hers), “Que FABulosoooo!!!”  Then I kind of put my hands in the air like I was excited.  People were laughing, but she asked a couple other people and they also responded “Que fabuloso” and she didn’t make them re-say it in a more enthusiastic way!

It’s just not in my personality to be excited over things like this, especially not excited when it’s 10 something in the morning and I’m forced to learn Spanish.  We have a quiz tomorrow in Spanish.  I didn’t even study, I have other crap to do for Math and Biology.

My next class was math, where only 10 students showed up.  I don’t know why, it wasn’t raining, snowing, or that cold to be missing class.  I for one, was sitting in the back of the class on my computer, working on my project for biology.  I took notes from the board every now and then but he practically regurgitates the examples already in the book.  Um, that and the fact that I couldn’t stop thinking about sex for some reason.  I don’t know why I’m like that, but it’s totally distracting.  Also the fact that I just found out I only need a D- in Calc 2 in order to get my Bio degree only makes me not work harder.  Before I knew that I was just going to get whatever grade in the class and retake it next semester, but now I’m just thinking about letting is stay as a D-.  But, hopefully he curves the class as I’m sure I’d be the most to benefit from a curve.

After class I went shopping for more clothes, at my “fashion sanctuary”.  I only spent $138.00 that time.  I would take pictures of all the cute clothes like I did last time, but I left my camera in the car, again.  I actually only went there for some pairs of jeans but ended up getting some other stuff.  The lady that’s there is so annoyingly excited, probably cause she gets commission off of what I buy.  I also got some super cute gloves for the winter.

Later on I left back out to go to work.  I got so frustrated that I one point I asked Jesus to give me the strength not to kill people.  Whelp, Jesus exists cause I was sure about to kill a few (give or take) more people.  Now, I’m at home writing this post, que fabuloso…anyways, this post was actually going to be about the stuff I found on Google Reader.  I made a mistake and press the “explore” button instead of the button that list the shares of the people I follow.  I found so much kwool stuffs, I’ll probably share them in the next post.  Have a nice day and remember to live QUE FABULOSO!!!!

      lol, it sounds stupid as hell I don’t blame you or anyone there for not using it. They’re teaching the 80’s-90’s, cheesy, valley-girl, dumbed down version of Spanish. That’s the only expression I could think of that was less, stupider sounding then SUPERBIEN!!! lol.

      Thanks for visiting, I hope you had a Que FABULOSO time here at my blog, come again and you’ll have a Superbien time ;D
