Okay, folks. Ready for an update? Good! I am, too. :)

Let's see. What shall we talk about first?

Well, here's the problem I had:

Remember how I was telling you about this person that I had feelings for? Well, yeah, we had gone to lunch and dinner a few times, and I was really starting to grow on her. You know the feeling: You're ALWAYS thinking about her. Everything I did, everything I saw reminded me of her. Scared the hell out of me, actually. Anyway, we have so much in common. Our beliefs are practically one with a few differences here and there. But, no two people are the same, right? Right!

Anyway, we planned this evening out perfectly. Dinner, Movie, and a night drive. Sounds great. She was going to take me to this Japanese restaurant in Turlock. I was going to take her to the movie. And we would finish it off with a drive she said she knew somewhere around Snelling. Well, I was extremely looking forward to it. Time came around 5:00 PM that night, I hadn't heard from her. So, I texted her and asked her what time she'd like to go, and where I could pick her up (she always has her cell like me). Anyway, I never got a response. So, time passed by. Minute after minute. I was all dressed, and just waiting for that call or response. Did I get anything at around 8:00 PM? Of course not. So, I said, "Screw it!" and went to grab something to eat.

Surely enough, she texted me back at around 10:00. She said she gave her cell phone to her brother and they took off for a few hours and she couldn't get a hold of me because she had my cell number on her cell phone and didn't know it by memory. Obviously, I was pretty upset about getting stood up. First time ever, and on a night I thought was going to be damn special for me just because of principle. So, this whole situation just blew up in my face, and we argued and she asked why I would think that she would lie to me and stand me up. Anyway, we both got angry, but then I apologized. She didn't have to apologize. Just because I'm so damned nice.

Anyway, she wanted to talk about everything because she was still disturbed by it, so she calls my cell while I'm in class and says something to the effect that this will be her last call and that if I wanted, I should call her to smooth things out. So, of course, I called her. The beginning of the conversation was, well, let's just say there wasn't anything to be said. I didn't know what to say, and she asked me, "So, why did you call me?" Anyway, I still told her I was sorry (this was like the millionth time I apologized) and she said she needed to call me back because her cell phone was dying. So, that's the last I've talked to her so far. Last Tuesday, somebody called my cell at like 11:00 while I was sleeping, but it said Private Number, so I didn't know who was calling. I have a hunch it was her, though. Anyway, I couldn't get to the phone quick enough because I had to get out of bed, and I didn't have the number to call back because it was a Private Number and the numbers aren't stored in the cell phone. Anyway, that's the last I've talked to her. I'm still debating on calling her just to see what is up. But, I would hate for her to bring up the situation we had a few weeks ago. I wouldn't like that, and don't want to go through it again.

Next up! Well, our Jazz class is going pretty well. They've been giving me loads of solos. I'm not sure if they like them, nobody else knows how to solo, or they're making me work like a dog. Anyway, I love the practice they give me, though. It helps a lot more rather than practicing without yourself to get the full effect of the chords.

So there's this pretty attractive women in my Jazz class as well. Her name is Rona, and apparently she is visiting the United States for a year because her dad is a Physicist and Chemist and is building some things for the UC Merced. Anyway, she plays flute and is pretty good, too. However, she hasn't had much influence to Jazz music. This past Monday, she asked if I would be able to help her sometime with the music and stuff because apparently I'm really good. I don't know. Some people say I'm good, while I think I suck myself. I think it's just personal reflection. I think I always suck at everything, though. Anyway, Rona's accent is tremendously sexy. Besides, I've noticed that a woman's voice in general is very attractive. I'm not sure why, but it just is. Anyway, she has a great smile, and yeah, I could probably keep going on, but I'll bore you I'm sure. I was kind of glad she asked me if I could help her. It's a bonus to get to know her more, and well, in general, I like helping people.

I got my test results back from my first Exams. in my two classes. Needless to say that in my Philosophy class, I did pretty horrible on the test. I got a 69. Never in my life have I received such a score. Oh well. I guess that's what I deserve for studying only a day prior. I think I'll be reviewing past lessons each day so it keeps fresh in my mind. Oddly enough, the multiple choice and True/False questions are what killed me. The short essay questions I aced. You would think if I knew the material, the True/False and multiple choice questions would be easiest. Oh well. I received an 'A' on my Chemistry test. It was pretty easy. I'm actually enjoying Chemistry. I forgot it has quite a bit of math in it, and I'm good at math. I remember when I had Mrs. Livingood for Chemistry. It was hard to link the lectures to the labs. Now, I can easily connect them, and everything actually makes sense.

Well, I appreciate the responses I received from last post. It helped me get through a few days knowing you guys believe in me. I was actually planning on taking 19 units. Scary as hell, huh? Yeah, well, I figured two night classes in a row was pretty stressful along with a full-schedule of day classes. So, I just forgot about the last class.

My job responsibilities are pretty much the same. I thought I'd be doing quite a bit more, but actually, it's not much more, and I get paid a bit more which is always good. Anyway, my position is held right below the Supervisor's, so it's kind of nice to be above some people sometimes. Hopefully, I won't let it go to my head. That could become disastrous.

My car has been holding up pretty well. Actually, I need to go get it serviced. Since I got it June 19th, it's been right under 3 months, so I should go get it serviced.

In reference to my Anonymous, who are you? Is love defined as what I think it means, or is it a friendly love? I may feel the same way, but you will never know until you uncover the truth. Just something to keep in mind.

Well, I think I've covered most bases, so I'll let you go. Yeah, it was long, but you were interested, right? :)

Go ahead and leave me a message if you'd like.

Brent is back in action.
