(no subject)
After seeing when I made my last post, I have decided that my journal will be here when I feel like writing; I don't have to force myself to post. I think that my posts will be more meaningful that way, probably not though.
So yeah, updates in my life. I'm now going to go through formal recruitment for the sororities. Yeah, I know, me possibly joining a sorority is a shock; I never thought I would ever speak those words in my life. I guess going to college just changes you like that.
I've also realized that I am HORRIBLE at keeping in touch with people. All of my friends from high school and what-not, please know that you mean so much to me and I'm sorry that I am incapable of of keeping in touch like I always promise to do. I think I just found myself a New Year's resolution: keeping myself up-to-date with what is going on in my your lives. If this resolution doesn't force me to correct the ere in my ways, just know that I love you all and I miss you guys.
Okay, I really need to bitch about something...I promise to make it short. So, my job is usually the EASIEST job in the world, basically I get paid to do my homework. But, now that finals are approaching rapidly, one of the Professor's that I work for, Doctor G, feels the need to give me tons of work to do. First, he wanted me to transfer all of the bow marks, accidentals, etc. from original pieces to about 8 copies of the two different pieces, each about 8-10 pages in length. So really, I am now a human xerox machine, not to mention, I have to erase any marks on the copies that is not on the original. By the time my shift is over, my hands are cramped and I am covered head-to-toe in the residue from my ever-shrinking Pink Pearl eraser. I've now been working on this project since Monday and I still will not be done with it until sometime next week. And to add to my work load, Doctor G also finds random, stupid jobs for me to do, in addition to the mindless mark transfering. For example, today, five minutes before my shift was over, he comes a knocking on my office door, and he asks me to go up to Oddfellow's (which is halfway across campus) to pick up some programs from the print shop. I packed up my stuff and hauled ass to get to the print shop and when I got there, out of breath and cold, I found that the print shop had closed 5 minutes before and no one was there. So, I walked halfway across campus in the freezing cold for nothing...AWESOME!! I had to return back to tell Dr. G the news ( another trip halfway across campus in the cold), and all he had to say when I told him was "Oh I'm sorry, I never looked at the time". I wouldn't have minded, except for the fact that he could have told me earlier, so that my trip would not have been fruitless. Sorry that was a lot longer than I expected, but I needed to get that off my chest.
I came to college, hoping to have a civil enough relationship with my roomies and the girls on my hall, but I got so much more. I seriously can't believe how close I've gotten to everyone. What I am gonna do over Christmas break without you guys? It's gonna be rough, but we will just have to talk a lot and for the people from Pittsburgh, we will have to hang out. You guys are my secondary family.
To old friends and new friends: I love you all!!
