ugh...moving in.
it was pretty stressful...mainly because it was so hot. also, when i came to check in, the RAs who were supposed to be helping people told me there was no elevator. so we pretty much climbed up and down the stairs about 6 times before we spotted the elevator, which happens to be really close to my room. how funny.
and then my mom was really getting on my nerves, b/c i would like, tell her one thing that i didn't want, and then 10 minutes later she would be trying to organize that thing, even though it didn't make sense. it took us about three hours to get everything in here, and i'm sure i lost about 5 pounds in sweat, and another 5 from climbing all the stairs...which i gained back from eating papa john's lol. then we went to family dollar to get a lot of shit (pots, pans, etc) and then to ukrop's for food...i wish i had gotten more because i can already tell i'm going to eat it all within 2 days lol. when my mom and sister were about to leave (my dad didn't come...which was a good thing, b/c he can be highly annoying in situations like these), we went to the tt lounge for boba slushes...!!! ...god i missed those things...and it's right across from my building now! anyway, it took another 3 hours for me to get everything organized and settled-much better then last year. the bedrooms are smaller, but they have more organizational space...or maybe i just brought way less stuff...i know i brought about half the clothes i did last year because i ended up wearing the same two shirts all the time lol. and i'm the first person to arrive in the apartment, so i got first dibs on everything which is awesome :-) i have the place to myself tonight...no clue when the others are going to show up, i never heard anything from them...i emailed my roommate and she never responded, and one of the girls in room B emailed me a list of stuff she already had--actually she said she was coming monday, never mind.
OMG I FUCKING HATE POP-UPS!!!!!! like 80 million just came up EVEN THOUGH i spent FIFTY DOLLARS on an actual virus protection program (norton anti virus)!!! actually, it's not as bad as it was last year, and it's caught viruses already and "alerted" me and stuff like that...but still...the damn internet explorer pop-ups are such a pain, and i'm using fucking mozilla!
for some reason i'm not that tired even though i've been up since 9 am and it's almost 3 am now. i'm kind of lonely actually. i really miss my room at home, especially my bed :-( i feel like the whole summer just flew by and for some reason, i've gotten really attached to my room. i guess b/c i started appreciating it a whole lot more b/c i lived in a dorm for 9 months and everything felt unfamiliar and not as comfortable as my own stuff....there's just something about falling asleep in your own bed with your own pillows and blankets and everything. and i forgot my body pillow :-( i mean, i can always go back and get it in a few days, and it's not the end of the world and i'm not five, but...i need it to fall asleep...it's like my "comfort object"--i always have to lean on something when i'm going to bed, either reed or my pillow. sleeping next to something familiar would make things a little better, you know? i just wish i were home sleeping in my warm bed right now :-( i remember feeling homesick like this the first few days last year...but i don't remember feeling this sad--like i said, i think it's because i appreciated my own room way and the comfort of my own home way more. and during this summer, i was kind of "cleansing" my life of stuff that was going to bring me down, and i realized what really makes me happy and a lot of that has to do with being comfortable. even though this summer wasn't the best i ever had or anything, i still loved it...i really love reed and my cat and room and own bathroom and my job and car and everything, and i'm reluctant to get back into the college routine again because it can be kind of rough...i was taking like 4-5 hour naps and still being exhausted when i tried to go to bed...i was so tired and i was sick a lot because all of that took a toll on me. this year's classes are going to be better i think, except for biology b/c i hate science, but i'm going to be starting fashion so i'll be doing something that i love, which will make it a lot better. and i won't have to walk a mile down the road anymore--my classes are only a few minutes away...so no more walking through surprise blizzards or anything. i think tomorrow, i'm going to have a fun-me day and go out and look at cool stuff...stores and things like that. maybe i'll go to shafer or something with friends...i missed shafer a lot, actually. but yeah, hopefully i'll feel better tomorrow. :-)
