1st week of 2nd semester
Hello.
So the first week of second semester has been completed. I think that it went pretty well. I am taking Speech, Spanish, Psychology, and Music Appreciation. My speech teacher is on crack. She is super super perky at like 9am....CRAZY. She thinks that she will get all of us to like speaking in front of a bunch of people....yeah right...Jenn and Carina are in that class, so it shouldn't be that bad...I hope....Spanish is REALLY SUPER easy. I placed into the lowest spanish class....I guess I didn't put in all of my effort...and I forgot a lot...but not this much....it is ridiculous. I know everything that we have been taught so far....EVERYTHING. but whatever...I guess it will just be a reminder and a blow off class. Psychology is interesting. I like the professor. He is funny. Carina is also in that class. It has basically just been taking notes and listening to him lecture. That's how it will probably be the whole semester...oh well. My psychology lab is being taught by a fricken 14 year old! It is absolutely ridiculous. Ok, maybe not 14, but she sure looks that old. I guess she just graduated last spring...but she looks really really young. She seems nice though, which is good. That class is only once a week, so I don't really know much about it yet. Carina is also in that class...I hope we don't get sick of each other by the end of the semester. I am pretty confident that I won't get sick of her, but I am not sure if she will get sick of me. I hope not. Anyways, I think that I am really going to like music appreciation. I have that class with Rhiannon and Amy. It is really interesting and I think I am going to have fun and learn a lot! I am also working this semester at Campus Life again. I really like working there! It is so much fun. Especially when I am working with Natalie or Christina. But mostly Natalie. She is very fun to work with. Yeah, so those are my classes. I think that I am going to like this semester a lot more than last semester. I have not had tons of homework yet, which is really nice. My schedule is not bad at all. My room mate Jenn has a few hardish classes and then she works every night except Fridays. I don't know how she is going to do it. I hope she does well.
Carina and Rhiannon are coming home with me for Martin Luther King weekend! Jenn was going to come, but her stupid boss scheduled her to work and go to a work meeting...and she can't change it, so she can't come. It really sucks. I absolutely hate her boss. So Jenn is going to come home with me a different weekend.
I am here all by myself. I think I this is the first time I have really felt homesick. Rhiannon is coming back I guess, but she has Stefan and does not do anything with me. I might be doing something with Kim tonight, but I am not sure. Rachel has already went bed, so I can't hang out with her. So, I am just sitting here all by myself being really bored and lonely. Sometimes I wish that I lived closer to home so that when my roommates go home or aren't in the room on the weekend I could go home also. But I love college here, so I would not even think about going to school closer to home next year. I have made some really good friends and I don't really want to lose them. That would not be cool. Nope, not at all. Also, I just like Eastern in general.
Rhiannon and I are going to Canton tomorrow evening! It should be fun! We are going to the roller rink that she works at. I haven't been roller skating in a loooong time, so I hope I am not too terrible. I am pretty excited though! I won't just be sitting here with nothing to do. And it will be cool to see where Rhiannon lives since they are going to see where I live. =]
Well that is enough rambling. I think I am going to go to bed now. And then sleep tomorrow for awhile, and probably do some homework. I don't have much, which is exciting! I have to write a paper about "great" music. I am not sure how I am going to do that. I have to come up with points to what makes music great. And then I have to come up with 5 pieces that I think are "great" music. I should be able to come up with something. It will just take some time. I also have spanish, which is really easy, so it won't take me long. I will probably do some reading for speech, psych, and music appreciation also because I will not have anything to do. I am reading a really good book right now, however. It is called "Uglies." There is also "Pretties" and "Specials." They are very interesting and I really like them. Rachel and I are going to go swimming tomorrow too! I am excited about that! I brought back my one piece bathing suit and my goggles so that I can swim laps!
Ok, I guess I am not done rambling. I decided that I am going to work out a lot this semester. I want to not be fat anymore....well not fat, but bigger....I want to be skinnier. I worked out monday-thursday this week! I am very proud of myself. I have also not had ice cream at all since I have been back! I am trying to eat healthier food too. Hopefully I can lose some weight. I am really hoping so. I don't like my body the way that it is, so I should change it. It helps that Carina wants to lose weight also. She comes and works out with me often, which motivates me to work out too. Working out makes me feel so much better. My butt hurts so bad though. One day, I biked 6 miles in 30 minutes. I was proud of myself! lol.
So today, Carina and I decided that we were in a scary movie mood. BAD IDEA. We decided to watch "Dawn of the Dead."It was soooo scary omg. We were in my room with the door locked and Rhiannon came and scratched on the door and we both screamed like woah. It was not cool. Then Rachel came and Rhiannon told her to do the same and we screamed again. That is when decided that we were not going to watch it anymore. We had only watched like a half an hourish. Then, Rachel, Carina, and I went to the Eateries to eat dinner. Afterwards, we went to the Student Center to see "Across the Universe." Rhiannon and Stefan were there also. I like that movie. It was my second time seeing it. I really like the music from it also. I got the sound track off itunes. It went well. Then, Carina and Rachel both left (Carina to Aaron's and Rachel to her own room), so I video chatted with Nicole for a really long time. It was fun. It made me less lonely, which was good. Jenn lefted at like 4 because it is her birthday tomorrow and her mom wanted her to come home for it. Jenn wanted to stay here more, but she couldn't. I don't know how anyone could hate their family. I love my family and enjoy going home once in awhile. She does not like it at all. I can see why she hates it, but it just seems so strange to me. I guess I am just lucky. Okay, I am for real done now. I am going to go to bed now and probably read some of "Uglies." So Goodnight! =]
