hustle real hard
it is so cold out i can barely feel my fuckin' fingers as i type this. sheeeeeyaaat.
still phone-less. it has gotten kind of dangerous, since i walk around the city alone a lot, especially at night. i don't do it intentionally, but i just seem to get myself into those situations. i don't really care because i'm not scared, but i realize the amount of danger i put myself in. i know the police won't do shit, chicago police department is so corrupt. plus, i am easily the perfect victim: young, female and petite, with no form of communication in unfamiliar territory.
oh well. if you don't hear from me in awhile... you're all fucking cool, much love.
anyway. class has been alright... my islam in the US class has been kicking my ass. every other class i've been kicking ass in. i "kind of" brown-nosed, so my english professor likes me. that's pretty much the only way to get an A in that class. everyone gets C's on the papers, but he's letting me rewrite mine. PLUS, he complimented my paper yesterday and told me to explain my methods to my group members.
see what happened was... i didn't go to class. i skipped so many classes he implemented a rule-- 6 absences, automatic failure. i skipped at least 5. so i was definitely on his shit list. well, that changed.
there's this REALLY cute blue-eyed boy in my arabic class (yes, i'm learning arabic) that i sometimes sit next to. so yesterday during class... he started flirting with me. out of no where. usually i'm completely oblivious to guys flirting with me because i just think they're being friendly... but my friend pointed it out to me. we were sharing a book and he got really close to me, and laughed at everything i said. stuff like that. well, who am i to complain? i just saw him on campus and he said hi to me, heh. ;)
and well, fuck it. i'm determined to move out of my brother's place. living with your older brother ain't easy, so i've found a couple girls to get an apartment with next year. i could move out right now if i wanted... my friends have this sweet basement apartment in lincoln park that i could easily move into right away, only around $200 a month. i have the money and everything... but i decided to save up so i can get an even sweeter place downtown in the loop next year. 1-2 bedroom apartments are usually around $1200 a month here. so fuck all of you back home who will be getting apartments for like $500 next year.
maybe i should stay in chicago for break and work retail on the magnificent mile? i'd get paid so much for easy shit. plus awesome discounts.
...or just go home to california and chill in LA, SB and SD.
decisions decisions decisions.
ps: it's starting to snow right now. whoooooooooa.
