Today I discovered that jalapeño poppers are delicious, and that some people have never had truly bad food in their lives. Seriously, a couple people were talking about how supposedly bad the food was for supper tonight even though it was good... I mentioned the jalapeño poppers (which I couldn't remember the name of at the time and called "those jalapeño cheese fried things") and some guy sounded kinda grossed out and said something about how he wouldn't trust them "knowing the school's food." Um, what? This is the only school I've ever been that had edible food... I'm guessing this guy doesn't know how bad cafeteria food can get. The only problem I've had with the school food so far is the way some people tend to drop random bits of icky stuff (like green beans or peas) into the good food (like jalapeño poppers or black olives) so I have to be extra careful not to accidentally put some of the icky stuff on my plate.
Also found out that my weird feelings that something was up earlier in the week were (for the most part) not just me being paranoid. One of the girls I've gotten to know pretty well actually has been having some trouble lately because her medication runs out soon and the pharmacy is a good walk away... and also she doesn't have money to pay for it. She said she'd try to just go without for a while, but I'm not sure that's such a good idea... the last time I knew someone who was supposed to be on meds who decided to go without them for a while, things got really nutty, really fast and I discovered that the "on meds" version was much more pleasant to be around than the meds-less one. Of course, probably not the same problem here (actually I'm 100% sure it's not the same problem) but still, going without medication for potentially serious conditions just doesn't seem like a good idea to me.
Starting to get more used to doing my Spanish homework on time now. It's a little easier on weekends, since I've got tons of free time (two days! plus the rest of Friday and early Monday), but I think I'll be able to pull it off on the weekdays now, too. Painting might be a bit trickier, but since the library's open all day tomorrow (until something like 7:00 anyway) I should be able to figure out which painting I'm going to imitate for the next assignment, get a print-off or two done, and then finish it over the weekend.
Also showed some of my games to more people today, and thankfully nobody seemed offended by Fat Frog (despite Chuck E. Jesus being possibly blasphemous in some people's eyes and "MOVE, BITCH! GET OUT THE WAY!" blaring in the background.) Of course, the song was kinda inaudible thanks to the loud cafeteria noise all around, but still, nobody seemed to have any issue when I mentioned that there was a rap song in the game with some profanity. Showing people silly stuff that makes them laugh is always good, too. Plus, I think I may have directed a few people toward actually downloading and playing my games for themselves, rather than just watching (pointing them toward Slime Salad, of course.)
Oh, and I just noticed that most of the people reading this (which is... not really anyone, heh, I've had five hits total since I started) are from Germany, which is a little odd. How are German people finding some random guys blog that's not even linked anywhere? A little weird!
