Day 14, WTF: the movie
Two weeks down, and things are starting to shape up here. Yesterday I came back from the movie (more about that later) to see that our message board says "I love Emma & Amanda...I do too...M3" I don't know who it's from but, hey, people are starting to notice I'm here. Emma, even though she's my opposite, is still a great roomie; we've even talked about rooming together next year.
Classes are going well. There's the one professor I thought I would have a problem with, but even he's turning out to be ok. For every chapter we read for his class we have to come up with questions for class. Well, he called on me last class....and he actually thought I had a really good question! It made me happy, and makes me think I might not have as much of a problem as I thought.
I'm still hitting my head. It's starting to get to the point where I don't even feel it. Except for the other morning when I woke up. I looked at my clock and it said 9:28. I had class at 9:30 and without thinking sat upright in bed and said "shit, I've got class in two minutes" and hit my head on the ceiling. That wasn't so cool.
I've rarely seen squirrels get this close to humans until I came to campus. The damn things are EVERYWHERE, and they let you get pretty close to 'em. While heading to class the other day, I saw one carrying a full package of cheese and peanut butter crackers. Definitely was a mood lifter for the day.
JOE CAME TO VISIT! Tuesday night/Wednesday morning He came out to stay with me for the night. Got pulled over but other than that made it here fine. Having someone around that I didn't have to explain things to, who already knew me was great. I don't have many, if any friends like that here, so it was like "HUMAN! Someone to talk to without much effort!” He's thinking about coming to school here, so is Toby. I'd love to have either or both of them here; I think it'd make things a little easier for me. He's supposed to be coming up again this weekend.
I went to the doctor’s yesterday, because I haven’t been sleeping and I wanted to get back on meds for my depression, etc. The doctor is a bitch, and as soon as I get my insurance card I’ll be changing. But in the meantime, I have a prescription for Paxil. We’ll see how that works.
After gaming everyone went over to watch Hoodwinked (aka WTF the movie). We saw it last Saturday and went to see it again Friday, ‘because we have nothing better to do. According to Casey: “On a scale of One to WTF it’s a yes.” I’m glad I have a group to hang out with, even though it’s outside of school, and to most of them I’m probably just Gandalf’s Ex gf. I wish I had a group like that on campus though.
I still don’t have a job, although I finally found out that I do get work study. I’ve turned in one application (at the library of course) for the work study, and like 3 applications outside of campus. Eventually someone will hire me…. I hope.
Anyone who actually reads all of this deserves a prize. And now, I get to do homework. Yay.
