Well we just had our midterm. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a good grade. Doesn't help that I feel like I haven't been doing my best. Though I've been getting lucky during some of those timed tests. Liang Zhi has been enjoying watching some cartoons during then. He fusses from time to time but it hasn't been too difficult to take these classes.
I get ot relax the rest of the day - well other than with taking care of my son. Oh, hey, Eve did you want to go out today for lunch or something? I was thinking it'd be nice... Maybe we can get together for another night out here soon as well!
Geeze... I should work on some of this project. Say Komui did you want to help me with it later this evening?
Oh say, Kanda! You should come over sometime.

Why are there so much dirty clothing?! Geeze nice to know that at least not all of them are mine. I better start some laundry so Komui and Liang Zhi have something to wear next week. School's be nice I guess, I passed my test and now I just have to hope that this Math class was worth it. Taking Math online was probably not the best idea.
But this means I'm getting closer to getting that degree and then I will make sure to prove to everyone I can be a forensic scientist. Johnathon called earlier and told me he really missed having me around the office. Guess Mr. Gavin has been driving everyone up the wall with his annoyances. And they told me he wasn't so bad. HA.
Geeze things are really starting to calm down a bit aren't they? I need to get out more. Doing all of this online classwork has been killing me. I really miss the sun lately. I think Liang Zhi does too, he's been getting really antsy lately. Though he started rolling around on the floor. I have to keep a closer eye on him. I'm sure this is early signs that he's going to start crawling soon.
Say Eve...are you all right? Why don't you and I have a girls night out? You know, go out to dinner, and just generally hang out? It's been far too long and well... I'm sure you need it.

I can't remember the last time I've had to sit down and do Math. I should really go back and do some review before I finish this homework. With my luck I'll fail the first assignment because I'm not in the class room learning properly. Oh well, at least I'm doing something with my day.
I'm so behind in my schooling it's not even funny. It'll be a while before I catch up to where I should be but...I am sure I'll get there eventually. At least I'm back in school now.
Geeze, I really need to work out a routine with my son. He's been fussy lately and I can't really figure out why. I should try talking to him more while I'm doing my homework. Maybe we'll go on a walk tomorrow to make up for the first week of school. I wonder if the fresh air will help a bit.
Say Lei Fang, are you going to be busy tomorrow? Maybe we could go to lunch or something.

So going back to school and getting a new rooming assignment. Geeze you'd think it'd be easier to just get an apartment. Moving around like this is tough sometimes, especially with having a baby. Though Sulfate doesn't like it either and I swear he clung to my leg for dear life when we drove him around to the new quad.
At least we have a car. I don't even know how we'd work it out if we didn't. And let me say that cleaning the room was the easiest thing I've done in years. I can remember my first apartment when I was in England and that was quite the job.
I called Lana earlier in the week to see how she was doing and to thank her for letting us stay with her. I'm just glad we got out of here when we did...
Oh, Lei Fang I'm in Carnation East now if you'd like to pick up on that working out. I've been doing some of it on my own, but it's better when you have a friend. I found one of my sisters old tapes her friends gave her back when she was in high school. "Working Out to the 80's" has been hilarious.
I better start unpacking my stuff. Liang Zhi is asleep... so now is the perfect time.
Oh say Ron? How have you been lately? It's been a while since we've spoken. And say, Lavi how are you doing in the library? I'm sorry I haven't been around... I mean I could try and drop by and help out for a bit or something if you need it.
...Eve we should go out to lunch sometime. What do you say?

So I've got a plan for the fall semester for school. I'm going to start taking some online classes again just so I can get closer to my degree. With that I can keep an eye on Liang Zhi and just hope that he doesn't bother me too much during tests. I need to take a Math class, an English class, and another Psychology class, but once he's a little older I can get back into the hands on training. Forensic science here I come!
Also I turned on the T.V earlier only to find B.B.C's Dr. What was on. It's been ages since I had seen it since the season finale when I was a kid but geeze... it's still pretty good. Predictable now that I'm older, but good. I can't believe he was up against the Cyber Pepper Shakers again! Those things just don't give up do they?
...oh. Oh! Komui I need to talk to you.

I cannot believe I even thought...geeze next time I jump to conclusions I'll remember this incident. I have a fever of about 100°. 98.6° is normal but... I don't even know where I would have gotten a cold.
I should get some water and make sure Liang Zhi is fed. Lana sent me some of her work load to help her out, so I should get started on that. I gotta admit that it was nice to hear from her, especially after what happened on Mother's Day. Seems like the office is as busy as ever... I'm sort of missing it. Maybe I should call Johnathon and see if he has any new cases I can take a look at. I mean it's not like I can go out on the field right now but I can at least catch up on what I've missed.
... I should pick up a coursebook for the fall semester. I'm thinking about going back to school and trying to finish getting my degree in Forensic Sciences. Maybe it won't be too difficult if I pace myself right between school and being a mother... but I'm nervous about it.

He's so quiet... I keep thinking that something is wrong and I keep peeking into the room during the day. He makes some noises, he smiles, he tugs on my hair and he likes to be held... I might start logging everything and keeping notes for future reference. I really should stop trying to call my pediatrician every day. At least she's nice and understands my concerns. She reminded me to mark a date in June as he's going to be getting his first set of immunizations. I'm not looking forward to that but it'll be for the best.
I'm wondering if I should sign up for the fall semester. Maybe take a few online classes and one or two classes on campus. It'd be nice to get out and actually sit in a room with my peers. I'll talk to Komui about it.
Speaking of Komui... I wonder where he went. He said he was taking Liang Zhi out for a walk and he hasn't come back yet. I hope he's okay... and he doesn't have a cell phone. Maybe I should get him one and teach him how to use it. Not that it's difficult but just in case he might need the lesson.
Geeze it's been what an hour or so? Maybe two? Where did those two run off to... they've left me with nothing to do. Maybe I'll take a summer course online to keep myself active while Liang Zhi is asleep. I have been catching up on my reading as it is and I'm sure I'll run out of books sooner or later. I knew I should have grabbed more when I was at my apartment.
Say Lei Fang, I was thinking maybe after Liang Zhi gets his immunizations we could start working on a schedule. Maybe we could shoot for mid-June?
Oh...and Ron, who is your friend? Is she going to start coming to the school or is she just visiting?

I'm not sure what to make of this feeling. Holding him in my arms for the first time was...nerve wrecking I suppose, but I think I also felt clarity. That moment you hear women talk about when time stops? I think I finally understand it. He's... barely in this world and he already seems so curious. And I wanted to give him up. I feel like a horrible mother. He's my child and I wouldn't trade him for the world.
It's nice to be home though despite how relaxing the hospital was. He's fast asleep in his crib. I feel so uninformed when it comes to caring for a child... so I asked the nurses for advice. I should call Lana later and ask for some advice considering she raised me. I wonder how different feels when it comes to a sibling expectation of a child and a mothers.
Geeze now I'm rambling. I'm glad to know he's healthy. He's so small too. His hands, his feet... I didn't think I'd be so fascinated with my own child but he's adorable.
I should go check on him.

I think I'm beginning to see the disadvantages of taking an extended leave from work and school. Online classes aren't the same as going into a classroom and sitting down with your teachers and discussing techniques for the forensic field. I wonder how much different criminal investigation is here after all.
Scientifically speaking it's probably better for me this way, considering the factors involved but I'm going stir crazy.
Geeze... I should probably get out more.
Eve...do you think we could go for a walk tomorrow? Are you busy?

All right. Johnathon is going to pay for having the ladies in his apartment email me about my pregnancy. All the "congratulations" and the "oh how wonderful!" comments are okay, but a lot of them are asking if the father is Mr. Gavin.
Just because I work for him doesn't mean I like him. I wonder if... ... oh. Well looks like they're dated from April first.
...I actually sort of miss Mr. Gavin. Say what are you up to? Maybe we can sit down and just talk or something.
I should probably start... cleaning my own room. I need to at least start getting ready for the baby. Geeze I can't even bend down and I'm trying to clean this mess. Maybe I should get some help.

Geeze and here I didn't think Johnathon could send me any more paperwork. It's nice to be doing something for a change rather than sitting around here. I keep trying to clean the place and it's really not that messy. Maybe I'll start a load of laundry later to keep me occupied.
I shouldn't be up this late...but the baby won't sleep so I guess this means I won't either. I think I'll attempt to go grocery shopping tomorrow. Be easier if I could drive my car without any fear and worry.
Harry! It was really nice to meet you. Perhaps I'll pick up some baking items as a thank you gift. You could come over and invite your friends. It'd be nice. Lavi? Lenalee? You two should come too if I manage to bake anything. It feels like I haven't heard from you in a while.
Say Eve have you managed to get Godot out of jail yet?

Oh geeze... I hope I didn't wake anyone in my quad last night. I couldn't sleep - it's hard to get comfortable lately - and I was pretty hungry. I dropped a few things last night and boy is it hard to pick things up once that happens. I should be more careful.
I got a phone call from the office today asking when I was coming back. Apparently they're short staffed with a few of their detectives and Johnathon is really needing help. I can't though... I've already told him that it's too late and it'll be a while before I even go back.
I wonder if I'm ever going back to work. I'm really missing working with everyone even if I was pretty much Mr. Gavin's errand runner. Maybe I should see about doing some paper work for him as it's the least I can do.
Maybe I'll try and sleep again even if pillows don't make that much comfort.

I really need to get something more...comfortable. Maybe I'll see about going back to my quad and at least grabbing some more pillows and my cat. I made sure to leave plenty of food but I didn't think I'd be here this long. I should see how Sulfate is doing anyway. I hope he hasn't gotten into too much trouble.
This is absolutely ridiculous. How long must this go on?
We need to do something. Do we even have a list of who has been taken thus far and do we have a plan of action?

Komui, Lenalee, Lavi? You're safe right? I might try and leave town haven't been caught up in this. I'm going to keep to myself in the mean time. Lock myself in the quad I guess. I'm going to keep save this time.
I better make sure I have everything in case something happens.

Geeze... making sure everything is moved out completely is difficult. I didn't realise how much crap I have laying around until I started going through it. Thankfully there is some trunk space in the car I can put some of this in for now. I still have a lot back in the old dorm.
I better finish tomorrow. It's getting late. It is late...and I'm still unpacking.
... maybe I should get some help tomorrow.

[13 Feb 2009|06:40pm] |
Geeze... Johnathon really shouldn't answer the phone while he's attempting to perform an autopsy. But it was nice to talk to him. Maybe I should see about visiting him in the future. He did manged to find what he was looking for after all. Seems like they're busy as ever. Maybe... I should try going back to work for a little bit.
I really miss the forensic sciences. Spending my time working on homework online isn't the same at all. Maybe I'll go to the lab and work through scenarios or grab some of my old case files and look them over. Anything to get my mind off of him.
Now where did I put that coat...

Komui...how are you feeling? Is there anything I can do? Something to eat or some company?
( Private; slightly hackable )
Say...Eve are you busy tomorrow? I was wondering if you'd like to go shopping with me? I think...I need to buy some new pants. And anything I can hide myself with. I can't stand this. I look terrible.

I don't seem to remember baking a cake... but I guess since I've already made it I should do something with it.
Eve...are you busy? I was going to let it cool then frost it...and if you'd like some I'd be more than willing to share.
Kanda would you like some?
I really...need to stop this baking. I seem to not realise I am doing it until it's too late.
Johnathon emailed me the other day. He said he was making sure to get his work down twice over now since I'm not there. Apparently they're working on a high profile case...it's been a while since we've covered one of those. It's all over the majour media networks. I should take a look into it. I haven't...been interested.
I should probably make sure I have everything for my classes...or at least all the books so I can borrow them from the library.

Happy new year. ...I hope this year turns out to be better than the last. I didn't even think about a resolution this time...
Lavi? Think I could work in the library tomorrow?

I... should wrap this. I forgot his present came in this week. I wonder if he would have enjoyed it?
He would have loved it. I'm sure.
Sulfate seemed to love the catnip I got him. Though he keeps trying to figure out how to eat it. He's been quite silly the last few days... He got into the eggnog the other day. It's a good thing it didn't have any alcohol in it. I wouldn't know what to do with a drunk cat. He also has taken up with sleeping on my chest at night. I feel bad when I have to push him off because I can't breath but at least he's being sweet.
I registered for classes. Most of them are online courses but at least I know I'll be able to pass those with no problem. I am planning on retaking my science classes...hopefully next fall. I found my forensic kit the other day and it reminded me that I had some work to finish. I wonder where that is... I'm sure it's back in my quad.
I should cook something for lunch. Lenalee are you hungry?
