I don't want to live in alaska.

I stopped being able to focus on doing my work awhile go. At first I thought it was the interest in this new show I began watching on netflix but then I started not being able to concentrate on that the same way. I'm thinking caffeine without eating, plus night fall, plus dim lights and the lack of a proper room one are facilitating a bit of anxiety/depression.

I could of used my time this weekend a little more wisely lol. Maybe I'll feel better after I eat something more substantial? Hopefully my mother doesn't come home with fast food again. She's been doing that a lot lately. I also got some water to perhaps chase away the caffeine... and as it turns out I am thirsty!

First Week Of Classes!

First week of school went relatively well and is continuing to be so far (knock on wood). Although I wanted very much to make a lot of new friends I realize that I have actually very little time to socialize. I don't resent the amount of school work / studying I have to do though (so far) and the subject matter in my classes is pretty enjoyable. Hopefully an honest effort can be made to stay on top of things and that the trend will continue when I have to take more math/science classes!

Woes of the Day

I need to be happy. I need to be excited.. and I need to not be sick anymore!

I also need to restock a few essentials; lip balm, deodorant etc.

I really need to save money right now but I've found some loose bills in a bag of mine... It's important to save right now but, like Minnie said, I shouldn't always just deprive myself. What is money but paper anyway? I think it'll be ok to get a few small things for myselff... perk up my spirits a bit and maybe be more excited for the semester.
I'll still try to see how much I can get other people to pay for though :p

Orientated.

Went to freshman orientation yesterday. Everything went ok considering I was still sick as a dog and couldn't speak (lost my voice). It really sucked not being to talk more and with more people. The kids I ended up touring with (both current and new students like myself), were nice though and were very willing to stay in contact. One of the girls I got to talk to is going to be in my english class on Monday.
I also got to find out when a few events are and that there will be big club fair which I'm pretty excited about since I wasn't sure if there was one during the spring semester. Hopefully I can find someone to go with although I don't mind walking around by myself either.
Being 'in college' is surreal.. like it hasn't really hit me yet. I'm sure things will change and surprises will be had but I still feel like things will be ____________________________.

I want a BC banner for my room and maybe a hoodie but that stuff is expensive lol.

Concrete Catwalk vs. Spring 2012

I got concrete catwalk in the mail today! It really is a very bluish grey but I don't think it's bad at all. After I put it on however I felt a little out of fashion.. I mean I wanted this grey for a long time, and it's still pretty wintry out, but I think I'm more in the mood for spring than I realized. It's just such a dark polish.
The product is nice though and it went on pretty smooth despite my less than adequate nail painting skills lol.

I'll definitely look out for more colors by China Glaze!

P.s. still sick >.<

Haircuts and Illness

I got my haircut today finally! It's not really what I expected. A little girlier than what I wanted but it doesn't look bad or anything. Just, not my usual style. I'll rock it though. I definitely want to try it with different clothes because it doesn't go well with the bunzy, baggy, t-shirt, ripped jeans look. (not that I plan to wear that to school).

The woman used a lot of product and blow drying (for me anyway) and hopefully I don't have to do much of that for it to look decent. We'll see after I take a shower 2moro morning.!

Also.. I'm sick! T_T Sigh, I really hope I recover before school starts.

Financials...

Just paid my tuition for the Spring 2012 semester. Apparently BC doesn't accept VISA so I had to do an 'electronic funds transfer'. Because of my account type I can only pay out up to a certain amount at one time so I was worried there would be problems paying the amount due for tuition. I called the bank for help and stuff but I still hope nothing goes wrong.

Also I called the financial aid office about my FAFSA verification. It was a mistake putting my stepdad under my mom's 'household' because now they want his financial information. Yikes. (He has more money than my mom). However I called them again and told them that he's not actually my stepdad.. as in my mom isn't legally married to him, and they said that I have to redo my Dependent Verification worksheet :(. I don't know when I'm supposed to submit this by.. I should probably call again and find out. I wonder if just handing it in after orientation will be ok. :(
