by tomorrow morning i'll have this thing beat

with the deadline of my forensic report mere days (or day and 2 hours) away, i decided that it was finally time to really start it. of course, now that i've spent almost two hours working on it, i feel like shooting myself. i really couldnt care any less about some fake muslim terrorist cell that may or may not blow up some dc bridge. there's too much small print and hex code i have to search through for evidence. grr. doesnt help that my room is hot and my contacts are dry but im too lazy to go get glasses.

ok enough ranting. today was fun... ish. i visited my old school cause my brother was part of a quran assembly. i've already been feeling nostalgic lately because of a project i've been working on (another headache but this one self-inflicted) and being back at isa made me realize how much i miss it. the people, the building, even the smell. it was kinda sad though how much was changing. i didnt know anyone in the english department. i only knew one teacher from the social studies department. and abla noha, who used to practically run the school, isnt in charge of nhs anymore. it was crazy. and when they were asking about girls i graduated with, it was sad how little i could tell them. it brings back all the sentiments in that other blog post i wrote.

at one point i saw my 8th grade science teacher. she was teaching a class full of children i have never seen before. and she asked them if they knew who i was (it actually wasnt as random as it sounds out of context) and they knew me. it was kinda creepy.

but yeah, i miss high school. especially senior year. i miss being able to see the same people every day. i miss going to the chicken place because we couldnt go anywhere else since none of has had cars. i miss the excitement of seeing razan walk in with the red/purple binder. i miss not doing homework but still getting good grades. i miss ceramics class. and english. and math. and physics. i miss isa.

UPDATE: i have decided i hate forensics. after 4 hours and 45 minutes of analyzing evidence, the muslim terrorists really are planning a massive attack against DC. im floored. really. i had no idea that was coming.
