SUCKS

I really hate when I have a bad day. Well obviously no one likes having a bad day.

Typed on the 23rd

But my days are usually just tiring never bad. So when I do have a bad day I’m really not fun to be around. I missed the 8:52 bus, (I’ve been doing that a lot lately -.-) and had to take the 9:17 bus (aka the 9:30). So I usually arrive on campus .a couple minutes late for class. It was difficult to board the bus because it was extremely packed.  After finally getting to campus I was a bit late. And then I noticed that I had lost my bottle charm. Yes it is easily replaced, but I still hate losing things.

Anyway, so I went to English thinking I would have a quiz on Dracula. >.< She moved it to Tuesday. (^.^ YES) Instead of taking the quiz we got into a groups and had certain chapters from the book assigned to us. We had to find and explain passages we found important from each chapter. That went well. Only one of my group members just stood there when we had to speak in front of the class. -.- After class I went to the bus stop, and waited for what seemed like FOREVER.  Finally, my bus came and as I boarded the bus I noticed it was different. It was an accordion bus and it was larger and the seats were sooooooooo comfortable. >.< I wish I could ride that bus more often.

On Friday I had a Psychology exam. It was easy…I think. This could be one of those times I feel I did well on an exam and in reality I did horrible. -.- I hope its not though. *Positive thoughts Kim. * Anyway, so I went to the welcome center to pick up my student metro fare card. It has my picture on it and everything. -.- I look so weird. I’m in a pretty good mood, even though the walk to the bus stop was extremely hot. So I waited a bit for my bus, boarded it when it finally came. Then I started playing ds to pass the time. I look up from my ds and notice it had started to rain. -.- Once we got to the transit the rain had gotten much harder. I thought about riding the bus until the rain stopped. But I honestly didn’t want to do that. So when my stop came up I got off. But my umbrella wasn’t made to withstand this type of rain. So having it opened was only semi-pointless. Cars zooming by splashed water on me, with that and the rain I was soaked from head to toe. But my main concern was all of the important electronics that I carry with me. Laptop, ds, cell, ipod. None of these are waterproof so I was really worried they would be destroyed. I started to panic. Because I had no idea what to do. I’m standing on the sidewalk, rain pouring sideways and the wind pulling at my poor defenseless umbrella. Having no clue what to do I thought maybe I should just walk to B&N  and wait it out. But I was in no condition to go into a store. So I decided to just make the walk to my apartment. It wasn’t fun. But I obviously made it to the apartment and I went to check on the contents of my backpack. They are all fine. Besides a few wet papers and dissolved tic-tacs nothing was severely damaged. I then stripped and immediately took a nice warm shower. The rain back home is nothing compared to the rain I experienced Friday. I know that sounds stupid but its true. This rain was angry rain. I was actually pretty scared walking through the pond like puddles. But thankfully my stuff wasn’t ruined. I should invest in a rain coat and boots. -.- Ok I’m going to stop this entry is getting extremely long. So I’ll end it here.

I Feel Old

So September 11th was my 21st Birthday. And everyone kept asking,” which bar are going to?” My reply was, “oh I’m just going home to celebrate with my family.”

It seemed as if they were disappointed by my answer. As if I wasn’t celebrating correctly. -.- Its not like I’m never going to drink, I just don’t care that now I can legally drink alcohol. Its just not that big a deal to me. Sorry if that is odd.

Like every year, I always have a great birthday. Ok besides the time I had to evacuate and the other time terrorists destroyed the World Trade Center. This year I got a netbook for my birthday, its a 10” Toshiba and its is the perfect size to carry around campus. Also, its nice to take to Barnes & Noble on my way home from school. So I am really happy with it. Plus its so freaking cute oh and the battery life on it is wonderful. It doesn’t have a ton of memory but that is why I’m glad I  have a seagate hard drive. I got mail today from Missy. She sent me a card and a Belle charm oh and the notebook of course. I love and miss you Missy!!!!!!! Thanks again. Her anniversary was the 12th so Happy Anniversary Missy. I hope I get to see you next weekend.

So last Friday, Mija and Jody took me to Aka for a Birthday dinner. We ate the same thing we ate last time. But Jody ordered stuff that he wanted as well. Like seaweed salad.(pic above) But yeah dinner was great. Eating is getting easier, but I still can’t bite into my food. I have to use a fork and cut whatever I’m eating into small pieces. I miss eating candy. I’ve been craving peanut m&ms so bad. On campus there are vending machines practically everywhere I look. And the m&ms are calling to me. I kid you not. But I can’t eat peanuts or any type of hard candy or chewy. I don’t want to risk breaking my braces, so I fight the urge to eat the candy. I do however eat chips but I am extra careful. They taste different though not as good as they used to be.-.-

On my actual Birthday I went home, and mom made enchiladas for dinner. So good. Kat also made me a birthday cake and mini cheesecakes. I love cheesecake. <3 Thanks again Kat. Speaking of the odd ball, she got four teeth pulled today. I hope she is feeling ok.  I will see her tomorrow after class, we are going home to celebrate dads birthday. But I have an exam tomorrow so I should get back to studying. -.- I hate studying. It just makes me sleepy, and bored. And when I’m bored I crave food…junk food. sigh. Ok back to being bored. Hopefully I actually remember the stuff I’m studying. -.-

Ticking Bomb

What if you had a device that told you the exact day and time you would meet the one…YOUR ONE?

I watched this movie, where a device like this existed. Its called TiMER and in this movie people can get timers attached to their arm to pin point the exact moment their true love enters their life. The moment you lock eyes on this person the timers go off at the same time. It is completely your choice whether or not you get a timer. But you only get once chance, if you remove the timer you cannot get it again.

I enjoyed this movie because I really like the idea of being able to know when you will meet the one you will grow old with. I mean isn’t that what everyone wants? To meet their true love? But then it got me thinking, in the movie people didn’t fall in love the “old fashion” way anymore. Couples were brought together by a device. The new wave of match making sites. The protagonist became obsessed with finding her match that it wasn’t even about love anymore. And then I changed my mind and saw it a horrible idea. I mean again it would be a choice. But what if I did choose to get one? I think I would rather fall in love when I least expect it. Just let it surprise me, even though I don’t really like surprises. Well I don’t like certain surprises. But the whole cliche lovey-dovey romance bit, I think that’s a surprise I want to experience. Just let it happen one day. Of course, besides wanting to know who that person is already; I think people hope their surprise is  one you would find in a movie. Yup a magic movie moment, something that could only happen in a cheesy romance flick. Those happen in reality too. To lucky people anyway. -.- This movie also made me think about the creative writing class I took in high school. I could have sworn that one of my peers wrote a short story like this about timers and true loves. Maybe its just me getting confused with something else.

So another movie I want to bring up is Going the Distance. So freaking cute  I loved it. Justin Long and Drew Barrymore have such great chemistry. It was so hilarious, I was constantly laughing. I recommend watching this movie if you love cutesy, pervy movies.

Song is called Fancy Footwork by Chromeo. I heard it on an episode of My life as Liz. I loved that show. Liz is so adorable.

So yeah one more thing, I’m still adjusting to being in a new city/home/school. Oh and I’m able to chew a bit better. It doesn’t hurt like it did the first two weeks. I still can’t bite into a sandwich. -.- I have to tear my food apart which isn’t so bad. I get the bottom braces in October. Yay sooooo looking forward to hurting again. -.- Oh and one more thing I turn 21 this Saturday. Weird. O.o  Of course I have class from 1 to 3. But I might just leave before the second half of class. I mean its my birthday after all. And I shouldn’t spend it in a boring classroom. I’m heading home after class to spend my birthday with my family. YAY!
