I went to orientation at The University of Michigan-Dearborn on Thursday. Yeah I'm kinda excited. I dunno. I got an Mcard. I look like I'm stoned in the picture b/c I woke up an hour before i took the pic so my hair is all shaggy and my eyes look extremely weird. I like the campus. I never realized that it was somewhat large. Well not large, just bigger than I thought. I hope I meet people. I need too. I will be lonely when September comes. At Henry Ford, I met people but I would never call on them to hang out. I guess it's partially my own fault, since I didn't try to meet people b/c I had a friend or two to hang out with outside of school. Now I'm in a pickle: My friends are leaving me to go to school. Fuck me. Now I'm kinda forced to open myself to others. Maybe I'll join some groups or actually make contact with individuals. I also registered for classes. I'm nervous b/c these classes are going to be more challenging than the ones at Henry Ford. Obviously. Also I am PISSED b/c I have to take another composition class, even tho i already took a years worth at HFCC. AT UM-D, it's required that you take the English placement test in order to graduate. So I took it. It was one of those "in class" essays where they gave you an essay to read and you had to respond to it. Well I read it, I gave a respond, they read my response, they realized that I suck at writing essay on the spot and they decided that I have to re-take both composition classes. GRRRRRRRRR. Well to be optimistic, maybe it will better strengthen my writing skills. GRRRRRRR. On a lighter note, I am taking two history classes and a Spanish class to help me communicate with the Spanish speaking world. I want to study abroad. That would be hella cool.
So tomorrow I have a day off. My first day off in like 2 weeks. The only reason I have it off is b/c i requested it off. What kind of bullshit is that? I dunno?
Well I really can't complain since it was my decision to take on 2 jobs but come September, my time will be dedicated to Best Buy(well mainly school and then Best Buy). Tomorrow night is Homecoming(a main reason why I took the night off, and to go to Matt's grad party). I'm excited to see the fireworks, since I have not seen them since before my Junior year in high school. I know, I'm a loser but that's what makes me cool.
So I've heard a lot of good music lately. Especially 'The Academy Is...' They are awesome. They will be in Ann Arbor on the 25th. I'm excited b/c i think im going. Wicked.
'Armor For Sleep' is another good band I just discovered yesterday. They are good. I like them.
'Head Automatica'. Another good band. They are fun. Kinda weird but cool. Listen to them.
Catch you on the flipside...
