Sittin' Waitin' Wishin'

I love being outside. It's nice. Trees are cool. Anyway, that's where I am right now. I'm just waiting to meet someone.

Anyway, that was mostly pointless.

So, I made one or two new friends! Yay! One is my biochem lab partner and she is pretty cool.

Also, I'm really confused by something. Ooh, I don't know if I can even explain it on here. It's about a person that I just met like, a week ago, and we hang out sooooo much. We do things that I don't think normal friends do. If you are curious, and want to know more... (Becca), just ask. Maybe you can make me unconfused.

I really really need a job. Stupid economy. Everyone, you must start buying stuff! If you stop buying things, the economy will only get worse, so buy stuff!!! All the stores are cutting back on hours and stuff, and firing people, because they don't have as many costumers. Now, people like me can't get a job, so I stop buying stuff. Ugh! It's terrible! How am I supposed to afford things like food?

So, my day usually consists of this:
1) Wake up an hour before class (class starts at 9:30 on Mon., Wed., Fri., and at 11:30 on Tues., Thurs.)
2) Bike to campus, go to class
3) Hang around campus, depends if I have more class
4) Bike to my friend's house, hang out there for awhile
5) Bike home, eat
6) Laze around, or sometimes people come visit me
7) At around 10 or 11, depending on when I have to get up, I go to bed

Good story, Vanessa. That was extremely entertaining. Shut up, you know it was.

I find it weird when I see my old TAs around campus. I can't tell if they remember me, or maybe not. I have had a lot of TAs though, so sometimes I have to think really hard as to which subject they TA-ed me in.

God! I am so boring right now!

Sorry, I don't have any thoughts that are contradictory to what most people think right now.

This is the end.

Update

Oh hey. So, suddenly, I have become very excited about life. I can't explain it, it's just really weird. All because of a friend. He really...opened my eyes. I hate that expression, but I can't think of how else to say it.

Anyway, yeah, I have totally been all miserable and avoiding conflict and stuff like that, but NO MORE! I have totally decided to think positively and all that optimistic stuff. Yay!

I made a list of missions to complete, and I call the list Operation, Vanessa is Awesome:

1) Confront someone, and tell them what's bothering me instead of sucking it up and then complaining about the situation to everyone

2) Make new friends in my classes

3) Personally hand in resumes like crazy

4) Realize I am really cool

I need to think of more things.

I would also like to take this time to say that I really dislike cliches and people who use them all the time as if they made them up. Things like "play it by ear" and other things like that. Seriously, use your own words.

Blech

Hi again. I have decided something revolutionary. I have decided to overcome a few of my strange and stupid fears. Here is my exceptional list:

1) I am afraid of the dark if I am by myself: slowly, I am overcoming this through living on my own. Hopefully after awhile, I won't have to turn off the lights and then book it upstairs so fast that I trip and then I think someone is eating me and I freak out...yeah, hopefully that will discontinue in the near future.

2) Talking to strangers (i.e.: ordering food at restaurants): this is just ridiculous and needs to stop. But my fear is so huge, you have no idea. For instance, whenever I call strangers to ask for things like internet and stuff, as soon as I hang up the phone I burst into tears. Haha! I am so lame! But yeah, I'm not sure what to do for this one.

3) The city in general: I hate taking the bus (unless it's the 55 - l'autobus cinquanta-cinque!), and I have never once in my 9 months of living here, pulled the chord thingy on the bus! (I could have had a baby in that time). But, that is hopefully going to change tonight. Also, I was scared of biking in the city, but I biked today! I biked to the campus and back. Yay! And nobody stole my tires! BONUS!

4) Commitment: also known as dating. Haha! I don't know what else to say other than, this sucks!

5) I am positive that I had more fears than this. I guess another would be travelling, but that's just because I have never really done it.

Yup! I am on my way to becoming virtually fearless!

It's alright, it's ok.

Why, hello there! I didn't see you come in. Would you like a drink?

That was weird.

Anyways. Things are turning out to be ok! Actually, I might just be in a good mood right now, and things might be just terrible, but I forgot. True dat! (I think I will try to use old phrases, that used to be cool). Right, so...my life. Class sucks, as usual. But, egh, what can you do. I made a new friend! Yay! And LOTR marathon, this Saturday is something spectacular to look forward to. It's going to be the bees knees!

And...I am not sure what else. This was probably a super boring blog. Sorry everyone. Maybe I will add more later...

Time Moves Slowly

...when you are alone.

I wish I could write like Colin Meloy from The Decemberists. Every song is a new story.
From July, July!:
And I say your uncle was a crooked French Canadian and he was gutshot running gin and how his guts were all suspended in his fingers and how he held'em, how he held'em, held'em in.

That's disgusting! How did he come up with that?

Or from Red Right Ankle:
This is the story of your red right ankle, and how it came to meet your leg. And how the muscle bone and sinews tangled, and how the skin was softly shed. And how it whispered, oh, adhere to me, for we are bound by symmetry. And whatever differences our lives have been, we together make a limb. This is the story of your red right ankle.

I dunno...it's just so awesome. :)

Also, I've realized that I have a lot of weird dreams. Last night, I dreamt of all the music I had listened to the previous day. It was weird. Oh, and I also dreamt that I had a hippy bf, and he had dreds, but we weren't allowed into a restaurant, because they thought he was high...weird.
