(no subject)
So here I am in big scary college. It's still intimidating. But it's easy to fall into a routine here.
We moved in last Thursday. It was a lot of moving and work (ew. I'm allergic to work. Lol.) but we mangaged to get everything done. Slowly after unpacking all the major stuff we were able to add personal touches to our room (like 2 DBSK posters, a puppy poster, a dragon poster, a kingdom hearts poster, a calender, and a cork/dryerase board). It looks nice now (though at this exact moment, the floor is littered with stuff). It's not home but it feels comfortable.
We spent the weekend doing all these dumb planned activities. It was so stupid. I met a few people but didn't actually make friends until we ended up passing a random open door on our floor on Sunday after a dorm floor meeting. I ended up talking to a girl who said hi to me while we were passing by and now we're all friends. Her name is Linsey. And then we talked to her roommate Tiffany too (who Mia had met earlier). Basically Sunday and last night were spent hanging out with them. It's nice to have people to eat lunch with.
Yesterday we had our first classes. I had English and German. This sucks because both of them have been revised to be 4 credits instead of 3 which means lots of extra work. Especially outside of class. So I have to read all this stuff for English and then do a paper already. And then I had German which I didn't have homework for but it seems like it's also going to be a lot of work. In my English class, I didn't talk to anyone because I was one of the last people in class. And it just wasn't the kind of class you seemed to talk in. In German my class was practically ALL BOYS. I was like... "Why do so many boys want to learn German?" However, I mangaged to end up sitting next to a girl anyway. Also being in German Class automatically makes me part of the German Club which I'm happy to be in. They are going to have an Oktoberfest in October and I'm really excited about that.
Today I had my other two classes for the first time. I had Math and Art. Math didn't seem half as intimidating as I thought. But it always starts out that way. Hopefully it will be easier than I anticipated. The guy who was teaching the class seemed nice. Although there was a lot of notes for that class. An hour or so after that I had art. And art sounds really hard. While the teacher was nice, I can already tell that she's going to be a harsh grader and expect a lot of outside of class work even though I have the class for THREE HOURS. And I'm expected to stay in class for the whole three hours. Also, I'M SO BAD AT ART. Which makes it even worse. Because I know I'm going to do stuff wrong. In this class we have to show our projects infront of the whole class so that they can look at them and critique them. Which is bad. I like... cry when people do that.
So my classes, and not having a job, being sick (which I am by the way), and not having many friends is totally stressing me out. But... whatever. Freaking out seems to be part of my nature. But I'm trying to fix it by keeping up with my schoolwork, applying to be a telemarketer (awesome...), and attempting to meet new people. Wish me luck!
