School is back in session.
Hey, all,
It's been a minute since I updated this thing. I'm proud to say I have a new phone; it's the HTC Snap. So far, I love it. I have the thirty-day trial of Mobile Speak installed onto it; that's how I've learned how to use it. I received it August 5th. My mom and brother got new phones, too. Anyways…
I moved into my dorm today; it felt really bitter-sweet. I’m glad I’m in Pembroke, but I still want to be with my family. I miss the yelling, the bickering, whining, the meticulousness of everything, and just my family in general.
I had lots of stuff, too. I had this huge container full of food, loads of towels and wash cloths, water, Gatorade, Fruit-Today, and Sierra Mist.
When we got to Pembroke, we still didn’t have everything. We unloaded my things into my room before we went shopping to get the stuff that Mom forgot to get. First, we went to Max’s Way; then we went to Wal-mart. We had an axel cord to hook my tv too, but we gave it to one of my roomies because she needed one. Mine was too long, anyway. We bought one that’s the right lingth. I also had to get a new remote control because my old one could not be programmed to work with my tv. Of course, it would have helped if I still had the instructions that came with it, but oh well. What’s done is done.
For the first time in 21 years, I have an egg crate to call my own, even though it’s for a twin-sized bed. I’ve slept on egg crates before, but I was at my aunt’s house. One of my friends had one, too. Anyways, my bed feels really soft now. Mom bought me this really soft blanket that’s vertically on top of my comforter. A new pillow had to be purchased because I forgot to bring one from home (oops).
I’m feeling really lonesome now. I met one of my roomies, and she seems pretty nice, but I haven’t met the rest of my roomies. I really hope I can get along with them and vice versa. I just have a feeling that, when they invite their friends over to the suite to visit, I’ll feel out of place. I hate when that feeling creeps over me.
The good news is Liana will be moving into Pine this coming Monday; I’m so excited about that. We’ve talked over msn and skype over the summer, but it’s not the same as talking to one another in person.
In my room, I have one of these automatic air-freshener sprayer thinggies; it’s starting to startle me because I don’t expect it to spray air-freshener as often as it does. One of my fears is that I’ll wake up in the middle of the night, and it will start spraying. Then I’ll be looking around, wondering what it is because I’m still half asleep, and I’m not all that alert when I first wake up. Lol
I hope and pray that this semester will be an awesome one; I'm going to try to be more active than I already am at UNCP, and I'm going to attempt to socialize more. I'm trying to break out of my shell, so we shall see how that go.
