blah days come and go... here's one for today
I know I haven't written here in a while, I've just been busy. This whol going to *big girl school* situation has been a real trip.
My day yesterday wasn't too bad at all. I got to spend some time with my family and then with my best friend before I had to drive back to school. It was really nice. Seriously.
So, when I got back on campus my night was going alright. I was able to unpack and get my room in order (the neat room is something I do only at school apparently.. we'll have to see about that when summer time rolls around). I ate dinner(left over Cuban food!!!) and had a margarita and relaxed for a little bit before I got down to doing what I really needed to. My computer is old, yes, I think we all know that. So getting my computer to meet all of the requirements that the school has before we can use the Internet on out personal computers is a total bitch. I did the required scan and updated so many times I lost count. The last time still didn't help, so my Internet isn't working quite yet and I'm really fucking irritated. Like beyond belief. I'm tired of having to use the computers in the Neuzil lounge because I dont have the privacy of my room or the solitude of my room. Sometimes there's just too much going on in here to get anything done. And then there are the days when I just want to be by myself and blog or write and be able to cry or listen to my music without the people next to me complaining, even when i've got my headphones on. It's just a sucky situation ya know?
After I came down here(to the lounge) to check my mail and what not, I went back to my room and watched some TV in hopes of relaxing and getting sleepy. It worked. I talked to my bestest on the phone for a bit til she fell asleep and I turned over to pass out and I couldn't. Part of the reason was because my roommate and her classmates were doing some homework and would get loud every one in a while. I solved that by first asking them to calm down and tone it down some. They did.. for a little bit but it apparently just wasnt quiet enough for me so I turned on the TV trying to tune them out.
That didnt work.
I tried to listen to my iPod and get sleepy.
That worked for a little bit... that is until I jumped up in my sleep for some unknown reason and then I was awake a-friggin-gain.
At this point, I'm tired but restless and I can't sleep so I turn the TV on again. Try to drown out the restlessness with some show on Food Network.
That didn't work either. I got hungry.
Proceeded to eat half of a can of Pringles and a drank a bottle of water.
Then I popped a Unisom. I had given up at this time because I had a 9a.m. class, where the professor just lectures (in a totally monotone voice nonetheless!!!) I was almost afraid that I wasnt going to wake up but I did... I snoozed for almost an hour before I was able to get up and get ready.
Kept falling alseep in class and kept having to push myself to keep my eyes open and to keep my pen moving. I felt like that class went on forever. Thank the good lord above, my professor let us out early, otherwise I think that I might have fallen asleep and I would have felt terrible.
Went back to my room, cleaned up my mess from before the class and tried to eat something solid so I could take my vitamins and get ready for my 11am meeting for the newspaper. Went to that, and here I am. Writing for the world, rather for my friends list, to read. Getting ready to go do the Spanish homework that's due in an hour.
