Good day all.
I don't really know where to start about anything so this might not be chronological... or even logical.
Sept 6th was a big day. Not only was it the first day of class for College; but it was 5 months with Crystal. We woke up at about 7:40; strangely at the same time and with both of the alarm clocks that had been set not going off. It's about a 25 minute ride to school and my first class starts at 8:05. I'm not sure if I've ever talked about it in the Journal but well; Crystal takes about an hour to get ready normally.
Though this day isn't a normal day and we fly out the door in about 5 minutes; traffic being kind to us I make it to class; after getting lost at about 8:10 maybe 8:15. Doesn't really matter I'm not even the last person to show up and nobody really cares. Humanities might be an interesting class; thats my 8:oo on Tuesday.
I've bought all my textbooks now; I think it cost somewhere between 600 to 700 dollars. Fortunatly some of them are for more than one course and at least one of them is for next eithe semester or year. Regardless Textbooks are retardedly expensive; charging those who have no money to be charged.
I've been living at Crystal's house lately and I really miss home. Right now Crystal's sleeping upstairs and I can't sleep so thats why I'm here. I've been feeling really wierd these last three days or so... I don't know what it is; perhaps homesickness. I went home on Wednesday but it was only to play cards with my parents; Crystal came too. We also spent last weekend up at the cottage so I was with my family but I've spent about 15 minutes in my own room in the last like 2 and a half weeks. I think it's taking a toll.
Every day at school so far has been good. I'm meeting a lot of random people; lots of first year people are very friendly and will talk to you random it's cool. Theres often a lot of time between classes but it hasn't been a problem this week. I don't know how other weeks are going to go this being Frosh Week and that making it different and all. I probably haven't said much about school; but Crystal got a job as an event planner for the HSF. (Humber Student Federation) So she's been really busy with Frosh stuff and I've been helping out. Unlike everyone else whose doing the HSF stuff I'm not getting paid though I just have nothing better to do.
Last night; Thursday night that is, there was a foam party and it went well. one of the Matts from the HSF and me talked a lot while we ran water from inside the school to the people who the HSF paid to make the foam. It was a hard job; kinda of funny though, we worked harder than most of the other people. I'm sure if it wasn't for working so hard I wouldn't have slept last night either. the barrels of water we brought out were really huge and thus really heavy.
The night before that Wednesday as I said I went home to play cards; we didn't get to sleep until about 3. Due to the Foam party we didn't get home until 3 and get to sleep until 4 last night. That might have a) something to do with why I could sleep those nights and/or b) why I can't sleep tonight.
I've helped the HSF a number of times now; wether handing out Frosh kits like today and possibly tuesday or wednesday. Everyone is nice but with the way I'm feeling right now I'm wondering if it's just a facade. I wondering a lot of negative thoughts... I just need someone to talk to but Crystal's sound asleep and well probably hasn't and won't realise that I'm not sleeping beside her at all all night.
I really hate feeling this way. I don't even know what it is. blah.
Lets see what else....
One of the days; I think Wednesday there was a dodgeball competition; that was pretty cool. There was a large cage set up and people formed teams of three and played 3-ball dodge ball. There was music and people talking on the mics; lots of fun. I was immeadiately approached to form a team and we lost horribly whilst the other team cheated.
Thursday during the day before the foam party there was some MS.Pacman contest; about 15 minutes before the end of the contest someone doubled the former higher score (23000 was the old - the new being 46000 for those who know the game).
Tuesday there was a lego building contest that I missed however I did get to participate and win a tricycle race. I signed up to get a cell phone and a free ipod (shuffle) with the phone. I guess it couldn't hurt to finally get a phone since I live in more than one location now.

Uh I went to the System of a down concert on Sept 1rst. They were really good and something funny happened after the show. I didn't catch it right away but it made me laugh later. One of my brother's friends who went to the show was making fun of them for one of the lines "Hey Mr.Jack" part of one of thier songs. I guess she doesn't listen to thier music...possibly at all because if she has she'd know that the way they sang it was the way the song is. She wanted them to do it some other way but then it wouldn't be thier song... songs shouldn't be screwed up live.
Speaking of Crappy screwed up performances; Mars Volta (spelling?) was AWFUL. Apparently they are good on CD; but well the lead singer looked; danced; dressed; and sang like a woman(is a man however). 95% of what they played couldn't possibly actually of been a song since it all sounded the same (and bad). It was like they had to play 20 minutes of filler music between the two songs they did play in the hour we were there of thier performance. So yea; Messed up live performance for sure, I guess our mistake for expecting something good?
Other live concert news I suppose is Finger 11 and Pilate coming to Humber. (and Cardinal Official [probably not how he spells it] later if you like that kinda crap). They are coming on Monday and since I'll be helping out with the concert through the HSF I might get to go backstage or something like that. I'm not going to CO on wednesday's though... I can't picture myself enjoying it and my classes end so early on that day that I'm just going to go home. Crystal's going to be working more than 12 hours on wednesday though so I guess we'll see how that goes.
what else...
oh yes D&D's been cancelled again. Not that this particular group's been cancelled before but.... gah.
if I can think of anything else; now that things are happening in my life I'll post. Though I'm sure NOBODY has read this far into the post I still can't sleep.
