Got my dorm info several days ago, but as I was feeling particually lazy I haven't updated until today. I'm living in Shorts Hall, (which happens to be where Meghan and Kim both are) My roommate's name is Kim W. and she emailed me as soon as she found out. She sounds really friendly except she kind of scared me in her email by saying she was ( Read more... )

I just got back from work and now my brain is stewing. I spent eight hours sitting around the stairwells, while only mopping a total of about two or three floors. Our group usually switches off whoever is mopping every floor. My co-workers are pretty cool, we just seem to have little in common, or at least the group that I'm split off into doesn ( Read more... )

I have about ten minutes before I have to get up and go to work. Ugh. My mom keeps feeding me all this crap about how I have to learn what it's like to make money, whenever I offer to take a week off so we can go on vacation. But seriously it's not like I'm doing anything that's even remotely intellectually stimulating or vital. I could ( Read more... )

Not much up here. I spent all of Saturday painting a mural for my neighbor. It's actually turned out pretty cute. Their basement has a zoo theme, so Melissa wanted to paint some cutesy animals and zebra stripes in it. So together her and I spent like eight hours yesterday painting it. She offered to pay me for my efforts and I told her not to ( Read more... )

I'm buying a computer for college and I'm trying to figure out what I should get. I know I have to get a Mac. because my major basically requires one, b/c it's so good with graphics and everything. The thing I can't decide is if I should buy a laptop or a desktop. I'm leaning more for the laptop because it's portable, but my parents are afraid ( Read more... )

I went to work yesterday, for the first time ever. It kept getting delayed because they had "nothing for us to do." So I spent around four hours yesterday holding alternating between holding a ladder and cleaning vents with some kind of stainless steel polish. This guy and I (ok so I'm horrible at names) switched off every time we finished a ( Read more... )

I signed up for all my classes this semester and my schedule looks something like this ( Read more... )

Took my poly today and it wasn't as bad as everyone had made it out to be. All the questions were very simple, and straightforward. The only really hard part of the test is keeping still while the armband on your wrist tightens so much that your hand starts going numb ( Read more... )

On the way to my cousin's wedding, my aunt decided to air all of my grandmother's dirty laundry. My grandmother is truly a character. She's basically a compulsive liar. Apparently during the past week, she has been making up tales for reasons only she understands. She told my brother she had a one pound twin, which we all know is not true, due ( Read more... )
