At College

Yup... Here I am (somewhere, use your imagination of a typical American University). I'm pretty unsociable and not very good at making friends. So epic fail on my part. I'm just horrible at connecting with people and after some very awkward small talk (like what is your major or where are you from) I don't know what to do after that.

I have some old friends here, but I really want to make new ones. (sad face). I'm going to watch some Arashi videos tomorrow to pump myself up. I haven't laughed in like a week, maybe that's why I'm a bit unapproachable now. People can sense my "dark" aura. I guess I seem bored a lot of the time, which I can be.

College textbooks are so dang expensive. The prices are insane. Yup. That's all.

Off to College in a Week (fine 9 days)

I'm not sure if I'm excited or not. I sort of just want to get away from my house because my parents constantly nag me (don't all parents do?). But I'm nervous of what is to come. I think the biggest thing is besides academics and making friends is living at school. Plus eww communal showers, I really don't want to wear flip flops in the shower, but don't want any nasty diseases or what not. I have had 3 roommate changes and you'd think I get over the shock of a new email saying, "Hey, I'm your new roomie."

Got a Toshiba Satellite... The sound is good which was very important to me because I like listening to music on my PC and my laptop will double as a TV/entertainment system for me. I just dislike the keyboard, it feels very flimsy and I like keyboards that are very crisp. Sometimes when I type fast some letters won't show up because I guess it didn't register, I dunno. I just don't really like the feel of it.

Glarg.

Also my sister is getting her wisdom teeth pulled out today, not all 4 just 2. That sucks for her. I already felt the pain and it SUCKS. I could only eat oatmeal and ice-cream. The painkillers that they give you don't work. And the needle they stick into your gums hurts the most. Now I have to go hold her hand while they rip them out of her. It's going to be bloody as my mom told me mines was. Sigh.
