What a crazy day...
Today was pretty eventful for a day in which nothing happened. Hah.So today I'm in the elevator on my way to the library after my bio lab (in which my professor let me out and hour early because I finished the easy lab), and I'm yelling at my little step brother, because my real brother told me he removed my PS3 from my room. Now, I'm the kind of person that doesn't let people touch her stuff, never mind let me 12 year old step brother remove my $300 PS3 system from my room. So as I'm yelling on the phone in public like an idiot, these two boys walk in the elevator. They overhear my conversation and join in with 'Yeah, thata girl! Tell him like it is!' and 'Don't take that from him! Set it straight!' I couldn't stop laughing XD And then as I exit the elevator one says 'Have a nice day!'
That totally made my day XD
Another part of my day was my Intro to Social Work class. Expecting to go over another chapter from the book, I come prepared with my book and my notes that I printed off. But no. We have a guest speaker.
1) She talked really really really fast. So fast that I was pretty sure something was wrong with her.
2) She talked about her life. Which I don't even think she was a social worker, because she was telling us how she was an assistant manager to some food stamp place. I don't think you need to be a social worker for that.
3) Her stories were irrelevant to my class, and therefore my life. So I was pissed off.
4) All she talked about was how the government sucked and that we need more money to give to poor people. She was bashing on the governor the whole time (which she's not the best in the world, but once you've said your point, I get it, so shutup), and she just complained and complained. I was even more pissed off at this point.
5) And then we watch this video on the history of food stamps. Now my opinion of the whole welfare thing is not a good one. I personally know people who are on welfare that can so easily have a job and a life, but they are lazy fucktards that don't 'feel like' going to work half the time. So they use their assets (aka children who don't even life with them 100% of the time) and get food stamps for that. I understand completely that there are actual needy people out there that need help, and I'm all for it, but the system gets abused way too often for me to support it fully. So this lady goes on and on about how the government is taking away funding for this for people without kids. Okay. That's okay, because unless those people are in DIRE need of help I'm pretty sure they can get a job and buy their food. Idk. It just pissed me off.
So I rented a book from the library not too long ago and it's due soon, so I should read the chapter I need to read and return it before I get fined (colleges love fining people for random shit). So I need to stop. Until next time...
So I'm sick.
I'm sick, and it's the second (full) week of school. This sucks. A lot. I'm not like full blown sick, but I'm pretty sure I have a low grade fever, plus I can't breathe very well out of my nose :( sadness.
So today went as follows:
I woke up. Ate breakfast. Went to my first (and only) class of the day: Intro to Social Work. I zoned in and out. Then I went back to my room after eating a sandwich from Starbucks and passed out for 2 hours.
So I've been in my room pretty much all day. That's kind of sad, right? I mean, I'm living on campus for a reason: so SOCIALIZE. I guess I'm sick so I couldn't really do much. But...still.
Also, I'm not understanding something lately. I'm a single girl. I'm not that bad looking. And I socialize with people. So, why is it that I feel like people (aka boys) are ignoring me?
The other day I spent like an hour talking to people on my floor. It was nice. We exchanged phone numbers.
No one has talked to me since.
There's also this guy on my floor who mentioned liking the same band as me, and I was going to their concert on Saturday. So I texted him asking if her was going. We had a short conversation. He wasn't. And his last text to me was 'yeah'. I can't reply to that. So I didn't.
But then later that week I was doing laundry, and he waves and says hi to me. So I guess nothing's wrong?
I just don't understand. And I don't think I will understand. For forever. But I'm okay with that. I'm not in a rush to get guys to notice me because relationships are a lot of work, and I'm lazy. I also really want to concentrate on school. I quit my job partially because I didn't want to go home and have to worry about work.
Now I'm worried because I DON'T have a job and that I have no money. That concert that I want to go to in October? Yeah, I can't go unless I can come up with the $30.
Life sucks.
But it shouldn't.
I'm off to skim 10 more pages of my history book. Farewell.
First Post!
Huh, well I never thought this day would come.Currently I'm sitting in my dorm room. On my laptop. Watching TV. Children's Hospital, to be exact.
And I'm pretty happy.
Hello, my name is Chelsea, and I'm a Sophomore at Arizona State University. I live in the only dorms on the downtown campus, and everything has gone pretty smoothly so far.
I moved in on Tuesday, the 17th. I spend all Wednesday with my new roommate, Katie. Thursday was the first day of classes (I only had one though because my bio lab was canceled). On Friday, my friends were supposed to visit (one from the Tempe campus and one that's living at home), but that didn't happen, so I ended up just going home since I had work the next day.
On Saturday I had work. And I quit.
My boss needed a definite answer as to whether I'm going to stay at the job and work every weekend every week, or just quit. So I quit. Because I don't want to have to go home on the weekends. What's the point of living on campus if you aren't even on the campus half the time?
Thank goodness that this Wednesday is a job fair. Because I desperately need a new job. I'm high matenince, and I need money (also, I got a new phone the other day that requires a data plan of $30 a month that I need to supply to my mother).
I'm hoping that (a) tomorrow's classes go well and (b) that I find a job that I'm going to LOVE, and FAST. Ugh.
But overall, my life is pretty decent right now.
Now, if only I could make friends...
Signing off,
Chelsea
