Life is crazy…September 14th, 2005 @ 11:43 pm
We all know life is crazy, okay now to that add my life, and to that add college. Whew. I could be a black girl on the real world, yep. I’ve only watched a few episodes of that show from any given season, and it looks like they pick the people with the most problems. I think the only thing that would count against me is I’m not the loud and obnoxious type. Besides that…yep. I got issues. My dad is crazy. I peeped into his paypal account that I totally forgot he had and I was gonna transfer some money from his checking account to my paypal, but I decided not to just cause I’m not there and he would go off on my mom or something. He has enough issues. You would think something things would change since she’s home 24/7 now, but nope. Still out. Still doing whatever. Still evil as hell. Some people never change. I might save the rest of this for my LJ where I tend to do personal venting or just random rambling, which turns into personal after a few paragraphs.
School. School. School. All I can say is you gotta bust your butt to get good grades. I know I will be doing that this semester. I have a heads up in my English class since I’m able to go on and on and on about a topic, so today we had an impromptu writing assignment. I don’t like writing by hand, but whatever. I was wrote 2 pages in 10 minutes and I was staring at the wall the rest of the hour. I think she liked it cause when I handed it in she started smiling. I’m mad. My printer is broke. First my palm pilot, now my printer. Best Buy’s Bullshit! Yep, I need to take a trip out there and hand them my laptop, my printer, and palm pilot. It’s funny cause I’m oh so gentle with these things and they just break without warning. My printer was perfectly fine 2 days ago. I hadn’t touched or moved it since then. I don’t know what’s the deal. I don’t feel like taking it apart but I might do that this weekend or something. Sad.
What is also sad is my shopping habits. I don’t do it a lot, but I do splurge at times. That’s when I know I can afford it. I basically dumped my dreams of getting a car anytime in the near future to the side. Besides once I get one I’ll have to get insurance, buy gas, and do other stuff. I’ll be in this city for a few more years so I just gotta use what I got, and ask for friends to take me places when need be. I know how to make money stretch when I don’t have any, so I’ll be okay.
I’ve decided to become an RA. It really all depends on how I do in school this year, but I’m leaning toward that position. It’s not a hard job, it’s just a time consuming job. And you really have to care. That’s the main thing. People that I’ve been working with this year have been telling me that I should do it, and I would be great at it. I just need to step up to the plate.
I’m so proud of myself. I’m getting in shape…see it doesn’t take much work. Actually I haven’t been to the gym at all…I’ve been walking like crazy, and this campus is huge, so I’ve been walking a lot. I do plan to get in the gym soon and I know that’ll tone me up. I was looking in the mirror today like
I’m interested in finding out about my roots. Someone with the same last name contacted me and saying that we might be family. There is a good chance that we are. There are very few African-Americans with my last name, and if they do have it, that question does come up. My family tree is scattered, and it is extremely hard to map it out, especially now since both of my grandfathers are gone. I know in high school people used to ask me what country I came from because of that name. All I know is that I’m from the US. I’m determined to find out answers to so many of my questions…and one day when I have a child of my own I’ll be able to inform them as well.
You never know what you’re gonna get from my blogs. Neither do I. I just type, and what you see is what you get. I should go take a shower and get ready to go to bed. I do have class tomorrow, among other things…
