I got my official acceptance letter from UNT in the mail today! :D Hoorah~! They sent me some slightly different information than Codie--including some helpful tips on how to do well in college. >_> Ugh, I have a feeling this "deferred" bullshit is going to follow me...
Before that, though, I went to the cardiologist, and he told me that he didn't think I needed medication, that my dizzy/fainting spells were caused by something benign. He told me to eat three meals a day, drink plenty of water, and GAIN SOME WEIGHT. Ugh, I wish I couldddd, Dr. Sharifffff. ;_; Help! (He suggested Ensure/Slimfast drinks in addition to my normal routine. Gets more nutrients in my body!) He also wanted me to take a tilt-table test, which involves getting stuck with an IV and then flipped onto my head, strapped to a table, and a cardio-sonogram to take a look at my heart. And in the mean time, they strapped a mini EKG machine to my chest and told me to wear it for 24 hours. So, I'm a little robot today. 8D (For another nine hours! Then I can take it off!)
It's mildly uncomfortable, but not too bad. And it's kind of cool. I can tell it when I'm having a dizzy/fainting spell, and it'll record it! I had a kitten sitting on my chest, earlier, though, and I worried it would set off the readings, hahaha. xDD
And then after I got my acceptance letter--this entry has no sense of a timeline, folks--I started fussing over my schedule and getting prepared for orientation. I finally figured out what my damn mandatory classes are, and I found out that UNT does, indeed, have Japanese courses (several! <3), so I'm happy as a clam. :D
I also started looking into housing. I got into one of the cool halls, I've decided. The rooms have loft beds! That's freaking rad, right?? But it was worrying when I saw that almost all the dorm halls were full. x_x (Codie and Brandon haven't jumped in on getting their dorm situation straightened out, and that will HOPEFULLY be done tomorrow. I'm going to ride Brandon's ass about talking to his dad about it. ...Although, why the hell does he have to talk to his dad about it?? He HAS to live in the dorms!)
After I signed up to stay in West Hall, they offered to let me use their roommate finder survey. I took it, and it asked important questions like, "Are you a smoker?" and "Do you mind your roommate touching your things? (TV, stereo, video games, etc)", along with, "Do you mind your roommate touching your personal things? (computer, food, tolietries, etc)" and "Are you a heavy/average/light sleeper?" etc, etc, so I felt pretty confident, scrolling through other people's surveys that I would be able to find someone I might not mind rooming with.
I decided I'd contact the person I thought sounded pretty rad--she's a smoker, a liberal arts major, and she has a cute/clever e-mail address. xDD So I sent her this OBNOXIOUSLY long e-mail about my personal interests and such before I decided to stalk around Facebook and see if I could find her. I found a girl with her name, and found out that she is a sophmore (I assume, since she's UNT '11, not '12), and an Early Childhood Education major. Her profile was also decorated with "bumper stickers" that advertised "Surprise Buttsex!" and rainbows and funny things--common interests of mine--so I have some hope that she's cool? I just feel a little foolish for having written her an e-mail like she was a fellow freshman. *sigh* Whatever. ;_; I just hope she, um checks her e-mail? And... I don't come off as a complete retard. x__x Wish me luck.
And... if not? I'll just look at some of the other people I've accumulated in my list of prospective roommates. No big deal. And maybe I won't write them ridiculous, long-winded e-mails about myself. xDD *vain?*
