My feet hurt.
I've been working at the bookstore for what seems to be all my life, even though I just started Thursday. They put me in insanely long 11 hour days though and my feet hurt from carrying books around. On the plus side, when I finally find my books with my 10% discount (whoo hoo!) it will be so easy to navigate what is otherwise a horrific quagmire of a place. It goes like this every time .. I work my ass off at that place to make some extra moolah which I just end up spending on textbooks from there anyways. I feel like I walked into a glass store, broke something, and had to work janitor services for the next 4 days to pay whatever it is off. Oh well.
I always do have fun working there, because even though it takes a while to warm up, they have some really cool people working there.. I have a pseudo-student-boss who is really cool, as well as this girl who I dont even know her name that helps me box reservations. Its fun. In other news if you want to buy books off the shelf go to Volume 2, as there is NO room to walk at the one on campus.
Lalalaa. Im waiting for my student financial aid refund, but it seems that there are some processing delay with the perkins loan or something that well.. makes it impossible for them to give me the refund until like 10 days after class starts or some shit.. ha! Guess ill have to pay rent with my UBS money and then like.. buy books later or something. Lame. Maybe i'll take out one of those short term loans or something.
I really want to work back at Admissions but I am not eligible for rehiring until October i think or whenever "mid-term"'s are.. I dont know if they are referring to the first round of tests or when "midterm grades" come out for the freshman. If I can make the money from the refund stretch maybe I wont have to get a job and maybe, just maybe, possibly can crack the deans list for once. It would be hot indeed.
I cleaned up with my roommates at 3600 today and apparently everyone in the building was coming or going so i'm guessing all leases must begin and end on the same day for that building. Funny thing is, he threw out a vacuum cleaner and it was POOF, gone like magic within an hour. Gotta love the dumpster divers. If I had anymore room in my room id totally do it too. I wonder if Skye has a vacuum, i'm too lazy to check and I dont remember.. I hope so. Otherwise we'll have to borrow the foxridge one like I did one time at 3600 which was pretty fucking annoying.
So I was really tired earlier, took an hour nap and now dont want to sleep. Dont know why. But I guess I will regret it later tomorrow when I get up at 8am to go help finish up the APT then go to work at 10.
Looking forward to alot of APO stuff resuming, but at the same time not really. I've been getting this urge to actually do good in classes, which I know for me would require me to go associate. I think I might that way I wouldnt be required to do much of it, but still probably would. I'll still have to think it over. One thing I do want to do is go to Nationals in December even though its hellishly close to Christmas. I love Conventions and anything with friends in hotels in general :) Especially when it involves drinking and streaking down the hall--love the YD's!!!
Um, I guess not much else is new. The stupid old friend of mine named Barry decided to fuck over another chick. Apparently her son was really attached to him from what I hear so yea.. he's still an asshole (no surprise there). Key: When someone tells you they've changed from a waste of a person, dont trust them..let their actions reveal themselves.
Good friends though I miss. I miss Justin alot.. I look forward to seeing him in October for the Fall break that I hope Virginia Tech decides to keep. I'll have to check on that.. else i'll just scoot my ass out of Friday classes since I only have one on Thurs and take an extended weekend. I want to go to Cedar Pt for Octoberfest with him. I'd love it so much. He's a really good guy, as if most of you didnt know that if you are reading this now. I miss Gene as well, I hope he is doing well since he has to live with his hellish parents and doesnt turn 18 for like another couple months. I partly wish his dad wasnt such a tool so we could have actually been stepbrothers (of course that would mean id be stepbrothers with another tool as well).. Life would have been so easier on him without his dad's new ho.
I want to get a meal plan because I miss on campus food sooo much. Not much more needs to be said about that because it is true.
Ok that was a long one, I need to get in the shower and to bed because it is 2AM. Bye!!!
