Siiiiiick, Dude

For the past few days I've been plagued with a cold of sorts, so I don't have too much to say. I'm doing exceedingly well in all of my classes - I know, I'm surprised too - though tomorrow I have tests in every single one of them.

Hopefully I won't pass out mid exam, there aren't any bells to wake me up in college xD

Well, I figure if I have the energy to joke, I should be on the road to recovery. Though who knows, I do have a tendency to get lost...

Fun Weekend At A... SCHOOL???

So, this weekend my friends and I packed up and drove 5 hours - technically it should have been 3, but there were... issues - north to Santa Barbara to visit our friend at UCSB. It was pretty awesome, and I got a slight taste of what it's like to be at a real campus. (Community college is basically High School 2.0.)

The beach was gorgeous, of course, but the campus itself was ginormous. No joke, it was like an entire city within a city. I'll probably never experience such things first hand, however, as dorms are FREAKISHLY expensive.

Possibilities

While I'm not getting the anime convention filled weekend I'd been planning for months, my friends and I will be going to Santa Barbara tomorrow to see our friend at UCSB. That should be fun. Despite being a SoCal resident, I haven't been to the beach in years.

Though the thought of going that far does sort of frighten me a bit. Imagine how lost we could get. Oh, the possibilities.

I Don't Care

It's funny, all my life I've dealt with people who judge in the same manner, I ignore them. I completely disregard negative comments that I know are not true. And, to be honest, I've never really even cared what other people think of me.

I mean, why should I?

But for the first time in my life, I'm starting to recognize how this stance may negatively impact me. Granted, that probably won't change anything.

Disappointment

Have you ever planned something far in advance, worked out even the smallest of details, but things still didn't work out?

This happens to me. A lot. For some reason, whenever I plan something, things go horridly wrong. People usually can't make it, or if they do, they're a million hours late. It's ridiculous.

Well, anyway, it happened again. No one can make it to Anime L.A. - something I've been planning for months - and I'm not allowed to go alone. So, I just canceled my hotel room, and have a rather large amount of money saved up for... nothing.

I've never been so unhappy about having cash.

School Babbles

Was it really only a couple days ago that I last posted? It seems as though it was an eternity.

So, school is... well... it's school.

Boring classes I can handle, it's the freezing mornings/early wake up time that's killing me. I've gotten about nine hours sleep.... OVER THE PAST THREE DAYS. Oi.

Anyway, my brain is a bit frazzled at the moment, so I'm lacking my usual smart alec anecdotes.

My music class is easy, tolerable in comparison to history. And don't even get me started on my online business class. The teacher is so vague about everything, it's so frustrating. But, whatever, that can easily be dealt with.

I think.

I'm just kind of babbling at this point, aren't I?

Winter Semester Approaches

The first day of winter semester of my freshman year of college rapidly approaches, less than seven hours and I'll be sitting in a classroom, rotting my brain out, once again. It sounds so pleasant, doesn't it?

Normally, winter semester shouldn't be a big deal, after all, I just finished Fall, did I not? Well, due to unforeseen circumstances, my first semester was less than satisfactory. I only had a couple classes, leaving me a bit behind.

So, this upcoming six weeks will be the first period I'll have to live by a preset schedule since I graduated high school, more than six months ago. Needless to say, this will be difficult.

It doesn't really help that I am chronically unorganized and spontaneous.

Thankfully, I am free to leave the domain of education/evil around noon, though this is only because I am forced to start at ungodly hours - 7:35am - which I find to be rather ridiculous. Having Fridays off wasn't a plus - it was a necessity.

The classes that I'm taking range from useless - Intro To Business, to dull - American History, to interesting - Basic Musicianship. Though, of course, preconceived notions of courses are never a good idea. They're usually much worse.
