wee friday is finally here. this week has been long and tougher. i actually had to hand in hw this week. next week will only be worse. i finally got my john mayer cd. i’m very happy. yesterday i got the email from the post office and ran to the university center to pick it up before class. haha. i’m obsessed i know.

yesterday i went to my psychology experiment. i thought there would be a lot of people, but it turns out to just be me and this other girl who happens to be in my business classmate. we stand in front of the room since the door is locked. we thought maybe the lady forgot. i end up knocking on the door. she finally comes out. then she tells us that one of the booths wasn’t working therefore she can only test one. what the hell? why didn’t she email us earlier about this problem. i had walked all the way from my apartment just for this experiment. the other girl skipped other events so she could come too. i asked the really nice girl if i could go. she already did one experiment, so i was hoping she’d let me do this one. she was really nice and said okay. she asked the experimenter why we weren’t informed of this problem earlier. the experimenter said that the problem was supposed to be fixed today. there must have been a time when they realized it wasn’t going to be fixed. they should have emailed us. anyway, the experimenter said she hoped the other girl would just reschedule, but if she wanted to she could request credit anyway. i’m going to tell the girl to just request credit because the experiment really sucked. i fell asleep at multiple times during it. i had to press these two buttons after each sound. it was so stupid. there were two rounds. i wanted to kill myself. the booth was really hot and dry. i think that’s why my throat hurts now.

tomorrow is lynne’s 21st birthday. we’re going to have tons of ice cream and cake. i can’t wait. today i’m going to see “bend it like beckham” along with the rest of my school. i’ve only heard good things about that movie. i can’t wait to see the hot boy in it. hehe. i will leave you guys with the friday five:

1. Is the name you have now the same name that’s on your birth certificate? If not, what’s changed?
basically yes. i used to go by “terry” in high school, but i got lazy, so i’m back to teresa now.

2. If you could change your name (first, middle and/or last), what would it be?
hmm i guess my middle name. i’ve always wanted a regular middle name. i’d like the middle name alexis or alexandra.

3. Why were you named what you were? (Is there a story behind it? Who specifically was responsible for naming you?)
i tell everyone that i was named after mother teresa, but my mom tells me i was named after this famous chinese singer, teresa teng. that’s about it!

4. Are there any names you really hate or love? What are they and why?
i can’t think of any on the top of my head. i would have to look at a baby name book to pick them out.

5. Is the analysis of your name at kabalarians.com accurate? How or how isn’t it?

from kabalarians.com:

Brief Analysis

Your name of Teresa creates an intense desire for association with people and new experiences, many of which have been rather bitter. This name has given you a gregarious personality and a quick-thinking, creative, and versatile nature, but one that is unstable emotionally. You desire change and travel and would enjoy opportunities that allowed you to be creative and to act independently, rather than to conform to system and routine. However, this name does not allow you to complete your undertakings, as farther fields always look greener. Although you may appear confident and positive, you actually lack confidence and feel self-conscious at times. This name spoils patience and depth of thought, and weakens your stand in matters of principle. You are too open to suggestion, and thus you could become involved in detrimental associations which could lead you into by-paths of thrill-seeking or emotional indulgence.

i guess that’s pretty true. the thing is that i don’t think i’m self-confident at all. i don’t even pretend to have it. i have issues with self-esteem. i also have a lot of patience with my friends, so i guess that true. i’m not sure about anything else. it doesn’t make me special that all “teresas” have the same name personality. i doubt we’re all the same just because of our names. i don’t buy into this stuff…

ok well that’s the friday five. i think the questions were kind of stupid today. i’m going to go make lunch/breakfast soon. have a great day guys! remember it’s FRIDAY
