the bus driver told me long after they got off at their various stops that they both inquired about me yesterday when i was missing in action (aka took a later bus.) ha. success. i'm growing on them like fuzzy mold. soon they'll wonder how ever they can ride a bus again without an annoying chick asking them their opinion on which backstreet boy is on what drug (nick is on cocaine! he so is!). til then, it's silence. punish punish. mwa ha ha haa.

i'm getting unexpected praise from the faculty regarding the Campus Echo Online. i was afraid people would roll their eyes because it looks too simple and boring ("my 2-year-old could have written this in her sleep!") but it seems they got it - it wasn't a place to be snazzy and gadgety and excessive. they wanted clean, functional and something that echo the paper-version a lot, and they seem to agree that that is what they got and they genuinly like it. so. yey?

my professor told me that he wants to try and get a bigger payment out to me for all my work (currently the monthly $75 doesn't quite match the endless hours put into it so far) and he thinks the way to do it is for me to attach the title 'consultant' to my name and have a company name following. company name? i can honestly say i have never thought of what i would name a company before. i was.. stumped. and then.. pop.

so there you have it. gosh, social security number and my own little (fake) company - seems like i'm on the fast-track to becoming a good, republican pro-life kapitalist, no? ;)

mucus update: i went to the student health at school for the first time ever in my over 2 years at this school (well, i go there for my counsellor, but that's mental.) and coughed and exhaled and measured and described consistency and colours and wham - i got my very own bottles of antibiotics and antihistamines. woo! i'm on drugs!

side effects:

my antibiotics: Stomach upset, diarrhea, nausea or vomiting.

my antihistamines: Nausea, stomach upset, trouble sleeping, head ache or cold symptoms.
