I still do not have my voice. I think someone stole it. If you did, I would like it back soon please. I feel really bad because I think I made Alisa sick. I love my RL chicas. You've been my saving grace and sanity lately. I agree with Alisa when she said that having friends like you guys makes it soo much harder to stay at college.
This week has been dragging out so long. I can't wait for a break from doing work. I've felt so stressed out lately, but there's actually nothing to be stressed about. I guess with everyone talking about scheduling and next semester.
Speaking of scheduling...my stupid academic adviser is a bitch. I have been trying to get in contact with her since the second week of school. Now that scheduling is coming up soon, she wants to meet with her students (all like 15 of us) to talk about what classes we should be taking. We have to call her to arrange a meeting with her, but there's a catch...we aren't allowed to leave her a message if she isn't there. Quoted, "Do not leave a message on my answering machine because I will not return your call." What the hell kind of adviser says that?! Any ways, I'm going to have a meeting with her and change my adviser next semester.
I'm going to try not to think about the whole marriage thing. I'm just going to sit back and let the right guy find me. If it's meant to be, then it will be. I think I have too much time on my hands here sometimes, and I just get to thinking about things. I need to get more involved. Haha.
I've come to some conclusions lately. I had a very, very long conversation a couple nights ago, over two hours with the guys' RA, Brian on the second floor. It started off as philosophy help, but shortly turned into anything else you could imagine. I am so glad he's here. He's one of the only people that I can talk openly about anything with, and I know that he will not ever judge me for it. I really feel like he relates to me a lot. It's nice because he makes me feel like I really am on the right track in my life, no matter what anyone else is doing. Sometimes I just need that confirmation that I have a purpose and I CAN make a difference. That's the biggest goal in my life. I want to make a differnce in someone's life being a teacher. If I can just help one person it would be totally worth it. He is going to get me in contact with the person that runs the orphanage in York City. I would absolutely LOVE to volunteer in there, even if it's every other week, just to go in and be a friend to those kids. They all deserve to be loved.
Like I said, I've been thinking too much lately, but sometimes that's the good thing. I've decided that college is when most people discover who they really are, whether that's good or bad. You have to learn who your real friends are the hard way sometimes. College is teaching me that I don't have to be friends with everyone, but I can still respect them, and vice versa. However, certain people are wayyyyy too immature to understand that.
I really didn't understand why everyone was all about the O.C., but a couple of my friends here watch it religiously. Sarah and I hadn't seen much of the first season, so she's downloading all of the episodes. She only has like 8 of them so far, but I really like it! I can't believe I've been missing out! I think some of us girls are going to Target and the mall tonight. Woohoo! I really don't know what I would do without Sarah. She is one of the few sane people here. I've heard so many horror stories about roommates, and actually we were in a triple with the devil herself earlier this semester. They say that your roommate doesn't have to be your best friend. You just have to respect each other. I must have had some sort of luck because of how well Sarah and I get along. It's crazy. Of course I love my adopted roommates as well. Haha. I can't believe how well we all know each other already! So many fun times...
Wow, I wrote a lot today. It's time to go do some homework.
