unijSo now I am an official college student.
Today was a big day of ups and downs.
Down: the first milk carton I tried this morning was spoiled and smelly like whoa. I should have seen it coming but it was mildly irksome.
Up: I'm pretty sure this is the right class for me. It's got heavy emphasis on writing and self introspection, which is something I'm good at. It also requires acting, which I'm decent at, and drawing, which... well to be honest, I'm only good at one thing, which is not charcoal drawing, so I'm nervous but hoping this will give me the opportunity to balance out.
Down: At first I thought I could nab a job working for the teachers, running about copying papers and setting up stuff for class speakers, but then it turned out it was a job only available for students with financial aid.
Neutral: The woman who did then get the aforementioned job thought I was queer |D I don't mind, I just thought it was funny. It's been a while since that last happened--out loud, at least.
Up: I did, however, get an application to work with the school cafeteria. It's in my expertise, after all.
Down: Because of all the running around job business, I was late getting to the bookstore and picking up the art supplies I need. All the other students had rushed in and nabbed the ridiculously large newsprint pads.
Up: The bookstore owner told me there was a place at the nearby mall where they'd have what I need
Down: She called the store, and said there were only three left. I got nervous, rushed to the bus, and then got to the mall and could not find the place there, and forgot the name of the store. I knew I'd recognize it when I saw it, but...
Up: People did try to help me, and though none actually gave the directions I needed I appreciated it nonetheless. (A janitor stepped out of his way to approach me and make sure I was okay. Am I a total dork for thinking of Uriel?)
Up: I finally found the place, which was not actually in the mall but within walking distance. There were two of the art pads left by then. Yay!
Down: I've been needing to go to the mall and get a small variety of things, but I did not want to lug around that ridiculous big pad. Waiting tomorrow won't kill me, though.
So it evens out to neutral! Yay?
Also please tell me How's My Driving?
