Lessons
Today i (re)learned a valuable lesson for every college student/ person not living with mom: Laundry cant not ait to be done once every two weeks. Also- People dont like when you've waited so long and need to use (4) Four washers and (4) Four driers. I'll work on that. Count down is almost on, 1 day 8 hours till Puerto Rico. How much have i packed? None. How much laundr have i washed? All of it. Put away? Less than half. of that, i'll need to pull stuff back out to pack, but i probably wont do that till tomorrow. one more thing i need to do is transfere all my music off my ipod, onto my hard drive, format my ipod for a mac and then re-load all my music. i realized savig my play list was going to be futile because i fucked up my formatting anyways for windows. boooo. lets see. today was a race against the clock, and a fight against the US Postal System. They dont impress me....at all. Mom shipped my passport over night so it would get here yesterday. did it? well they say yes my college says no. and that other package i was supposed to get? well that comes up later. I walk to English class (all the way in the front of campus. to give you a clue i live behind the back of campus, across a street and up a hill) So i walk there to find it cancled (thank god, i've decided today would be a good day to bring my laptop with me) But OH! i remembered my passport so i go to the post off and explain "I'm so sorry i dont have my package card, but by the time i go to class and go back to Millenium Hall to get it, AND get back here, you'll be closed. I really need to get this package though b/c its my passport and i leave the country tomorrow (ok small lie i dont really leave till friday, but i leave for Mileidy's tomorrow and they've already had the damn thing over a day anyways) So they tear the whole pass down looking for it and cant find it. I said thanks, walk to my next class (do my homework for it) and call mom and dad's secretary to get the tracking number. Moms thrown away the sheet so i finally get it from mrs. mundy and call ups. I get their damn automated service and say "speak to a rep" well, you cant do that, you have to go thru everything before, so i do and then it proceeds to tell me "this is the most up to date info we have, would you still like to speak to a rep?" as if i dont, ofcourse. so i say "Yes" and get this under-paided over worked telemarketer who asks me what i want and i give him my package details and say i havent recieved it. he tells me they have a signature and everything for it. and i proceed to tell him my whole post office run in. He then tells me again they have a signature so i say "Well, is there ANY way thats a mistake or you delivered the wrong package, or to the wrong address? This is important, its my passport and i HAVE to leave the country tomorrow (again, small lie but it made the story more convincing) where he finally tells me...yeah you guessed it "We have a signature" at which point i hang up. it took mrs. mundy calling the school, getting thru to the post office and talking to them to find my package. Well i run to the post office (i now have 20 mins to get to class) and ask for it. the woman was like "you said it was over nighted?" and i said yes and then she says "and you said it was a small package?" and im like "....yes." and she pulls out this big ass box and goes "well thats the problem, this is what we have for you and its not small nor was it overnighted." At that point i cant help but laugh and go "Well yeah, thats for me too, but thats not it, its a different package, what i really care about right now is my passport in the OTHER package. So she digs around more, asks me more questions and finally finds it. Now i'm running back to class, less than 10 mins, a 20 lb package in one hand and passport in the other. By some act of god, i make it and have everything. when i finally opened the other package i found the 3rd season of Murder she wrote and Sims pets that my mother packaged for me. =) haha love her. so i spent the next 3 hours watching murder she wrote. Now i'm still doing laundry, cleaning, organizing and getting ready to go run and finish laundry. ew. haha
