first (real) update in probably months...
so im pretty sure this week has been out of control.
ive literally been up for two straight days, on adderall, to get all of work done.
(as we folks in the nyc arent even out of school yet... well some of us arent anyway.)
Im looking at some really good grades though-- straight A's i believe. i suppose that makes it all worth it. ive been totally flakey, and cant really handle it when i cant talk online.. and people get pissed. its so annoying. its AIM, get over it. dont take it so personally.
But the good news is that my credit card was stolen on saturday. i was in kinkos making copies for my art history final, and i turned around to get get my card out of the machine, and it was already gone. i love it! so i called my bank, and they inform me that since i just changed my address in the records because im moving, that they cant close the account or do anything for me for another 10 days, until the new address is verified. aaaand, then itll take 10 days to get a new card in the mail. so all in all, itll be like 20 days without a card. i love that part, best of all. what do people who support themselves do when they get their card stolen, and have to go 20 days without any money at all??
so, im slowly but surely moving into my new apt, in between studying. i have to be out of my dorms by this firday (eek!) and i have lots more to move. luckily my new apt is not far from school at all... two blocks. its amazing! i want some mail to be there when i move in... send me my first piece of mail...
my new address:
264 West 25th Street Apt. 3W
NY, NY 10001
I think im coming to florida sometime really soon to get some stuff for my apt... aka my bed and bedroom stuff. but its somewhat up in the air.
I got a job offer from Bloomingdales, and Banana Republic.
I took the job at Banana because the discount is huge, and because if i worked at bloomingdales, id blow my whole paycheck on things i want there. there are far less things id want at Banana. And the discount at Banana is like 60% and it extends to the Gap. I negotiated my hourly pay too, and Im going to be making a shit load of money. I just want to be able to save up my own money, on top of what my dad gives me.. I want to be able to save up for things, and I want to kill sometime this summer, meet new people and make some mooolaa. Plus, Banana is like three blocks from my apt, where as Id have to get on the subway to go to Bloomies. I think I made the right decision.
Ooo, I cant believe Leslie left on Outward Bound! She is going to have the time of her life. My sister did it for a whole semester, for a time in the arctic, and then in the desert. I hope she has a good time and gets what she wants out of it. I already miss talkin to that girl!
And, just to make you a little jealous (or not): My friend Kim got us BRITNEY SPEARS tickets for July 9. Ill die... i cant even wait.
Yesterday, Joel and I went to SoHo so he could FINALLY get his iPod Mini and I wanted to go to this thrift store there... I found the most amazing WHITE right-above-the-knee length trench. It was $9!! and from Banana Republic originally(and ironically). I love it.
Ugh, and Joel (one of my suitmates in the dorms now) is leaving for the summer tomorrow! Im gonna miss that boy! We have been doing some serious hanging out and we are hilarious together. Its the best time. But his mom works for the airlines, and hes working on getting me a ticket to some see him while he stays with his friend in Scottland! Ive never been to Scottland! I hope it pans out. Ooo, and Happy Birthday to Joel (tomorrow!).
Okay, well im out of here-- back to work. Class in 30.
