| :[mood]: doing what i got to do
I just came back from night class. I'm taking an overload of classes and one of them is a night class. Spanish class. Spanish class with adults to be exact. I've taken night classes before and I enjoy the atmosphere with the adults. It almost feels like a lighter atmosphere because these people want to be here and Spanish is quite fun.
But in my other four classes of political science, I feel so retarded. Background on me on political science- I don't know anything about political science. I'm that person who had no idea who the vice president was up until recently. haha... Yesterday I spent 3 1/2 hours straight reading the first chapter on comparitive politics. I still do not understand...but it's actually something i'm interested in learning so that counts right? :p'.
It's getting cold here now. Boo. It's like high 50s. Aaah. I have so much stuff to read and I don't know where to begin or what i'm doing. haha Fun... Good-bye September...

| :[mood]: oh my gosh. this is the longest day ever. no make that week...ever
This week is just so weird to me! Oh my gosh! Aaah. Uhm I think what's bothering me most right now is my class schedule. It all started out this week with me finding out that I was enrolled (most likely by my stinking advisor!!!) in a freshman english class. No wonder when I went to class for the past week I looked at the syllabus and saw that I had already covered all that shiet. So I went to the English department to get out of that class where I was then informed that I shouldn't even have been in that class! Argh. It's required to take 2 English classes and somehow it was overlooked that I didn't take the 2nd one which I should have taken freshmen or soph year. But the English classes are full so I have to end up taking it next semester.
So then I had to go to different people and try to figure out what class I should take that's not completely useless. My class schedule is just beginning to kill me. I have class beginning at 8am most of the week. I hate that because for now I like to sleep late and...ug can't wake up for morning classes!
Brief run-down of what my class schedule looks like so far. I'm taking 4 classes and classes have already been in progress for about a week but I haven't gone to 1 class yet because I was just enrolled in it. And with 2 of those classes so far, there's like an adjoining class to it which is a discussion class that meets once a week. Those classes aren't worth any credits but it still take up one hour per class per week. So virtually I am taking 6 classes this semester. Oh but retarded me wants to do an over load of classes. Since i'm planning to study abroad, I need to take 2 classes of a foreign language. I haven't done so yet and I want to study abroad sometime before I graduate. So i'm going to see into taking a foreign language night class which would bring the total classes i'm taking this semester to 7...I hope. haha...ha...oh my gosh...
So yeah that's basically what's been happening this week. And it's only...Wednesday. Oh. I didn't say this little weird/interesting thing that happened to me today. I don't know why but I went out to like the supermarket this afternoon before class instead of taking a nap. So i'm walking around really out of it when some lady stops me and like hands me one of her cards that people just normally throw away. She is like a psychic or whatever. So she stops me and starts reading my future or whatever. Of course I must've looked totally lost and confused and out of it because I surely felt it. So she twisted my arm and we sat down and she talked to me about my aura and all that is troubling me. Yeah. The only useful thing she said out of the whole thing was that my body was here but my mind wasn't. Definitely agree. She was gonna charge me "half price" for her so-called reading but I really did not have money so I shelled out 9 bucks. Oh my gosh. I can't believe that. I could have used that money for food. Oh well. Yeah.
Gotta scurry off to a 4:35 class now...

| :[mood]: blah BLAH
Oh man the perils of being a girl and pmsing. Situations I can't control frustrate me. Obviously I can't control the situation but I can control how I react to the situation and what not. And I have not been acting to a certain situation well at all. And there have been some people who have been so great to me and here I go complicating things. Geez. I am so dumb. BLEH.

| :[mood]: eh
So. It's been just about a week since i've been up at college in Boston. It seems just about right. Although i'm missing home and some people like terribly and my dorm room is still quite a mess. A group of us went out to dinner for my friend's 22nd birthday. It was pretty fun. He was sad 'cause he was feeling so old. hehe. Yeah and while the table next to us had someone celebrating his 19th birthday. Ahhh when we were that young and naive.. hehe. Since i'm underage and don't have a fake id, my friend and I didn't go out to the bars. We went with another friend who knew of a party going on. All I can say is- what a waste of a beer. haha. It wasn't even a party. And they were all freshman. Geez I kind of felt old there but oh wells.
Coming from Hawaii I kind of like being out in Boston. Even though I live off my parents money, I still feel a sense of freedom. Oh yeah and that feels really nice. Actually it's not that great. I mean it is better than living at home where I have a curfew and it really is just different. Since it's Friday night and i'm home early, i'm gonna write. So yeah Boston is a great city because it's a pretty small city and you could go anywhere by foot or subway or taxi. Public transportation is very convenient here. Since the weather was nice today I just love going outside and walking anywhere. I just love putting on my headphones and walking 20 minutes to the grocery and 20 minutes back and then walking 15 minutes to drop off some film and stuff like that. Okay nevermind that just sounds pretty lame.
Coming from Hawaii, of course a very diverse place, and then going to Boston where it's White central, I could not feel more glad to be who I am. I mean i'm an Asian, from Hawaii, who goes to school in Boston. But i'm not like fob. hehe. At first I was very self-conscious about how I looked and thought everybody else was so pretty. Yeah they are but I think i'm unique. I am not some blonde with a big butt who only wears Abercrombie or Gap clothes. I'm not saying i'm better than them, i'm just saying I like who I am. I like how I have developed my own style, my own look, my own personality. Some things in my life may be a little crazy and confusing, but all in all...it's all good.
