Please, everyone, pray for Reynold...they still have him down at the help desk. I guess they had to transfer him to another guy...I don't exactly know why. I heard two different things...that the guy originally working on it ran out of time and then that they needed an expert to come in and fix the problem. Either way, the help desk is swamped and they haven't been able to work a heck of a lot on my baby. They've had him for three days and I really miss him.
On the lighter side of the news, my guy situation seems to be improving. I'm not exactly sure if I'm correct about this, but thus far I don't think my crush hates me...we've just been really busy lately so we haven't gotten much of a chance to talk. Even so, my mother was actually encouraging me to sign up for the Study Abroad program! I guess it costs the same as a semester here so...At this point I have some information about the University of Stirling, but one of the professors here told me I should study at the University of Glasgow. Apparently Chapman has a new agreement with them. Then Lucas told me that I ought to go to Edinborough. I'm not really sure...I'm just really excited. I'm going to Scotland no matter what, so I could meet my husband over there. Who knows? If not, there is another option. I can't believe I didn't think to write about this before...my first night here I met someone who personally knows Rooney! Isn't that incredible? Anyway, I've got the hookups for dating Rob Schwartzman now, which I think is pretty sweet. I shouldn't get too full of myself at this point but hey, I'm just starting college. I feel crazy.
Back to the bad news...I was actually feeling all right earlier until I had a little chat with my mother who informed me that Mandy had broken off her engagement to Dan. I guess she just didn't feel right about marrying him anymore. Seriously folks, I love Dan. He's my co-guy. If you haven't heard, our band, DANA, was going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread. I mean, I'm probably going to still keep in touch with him but that didn't stop me from crying when I found out. So I tried not to think about it, but the depression returned when I came back from my wanderings to find a lot of Tricia's stuff either hauled out or packed up. I suppose Mandy wasn't the only one not feeling right about her place in life. I guess Tricia's health was declining and she just didn't feel like she was supposed to be here, at least not now. After all of the roommate horror stories I have heard, it surprised me that I got a roommate who I actually really liked...but now she's taking off. Sure, this means I'll have a room to myself for at least a semester but...it's just not going to be the same.
Back to being happy again...uh...I like Pop Tarts.
