25 days
Hi again. Too much is going on it seems. Yet, part of it is that I’m kind of like a chicken running around with its head cut off? I feel like that at least.
I can’t believe I’m going to be moving into Eastern in 25 days (August 27th). Somehow it feels like its crept up on me and I don’t have everything ready that I need. I shouldn’t press the panic button, but that’s how it is sometimes, I guess. I have all of my stuff for school; it’s just a matter of getting everything [somewhat] organized. Also, in regards to the 25 days title…I think if I manage to get any other blog posts in before I go I’m going to count down
. I need to stop neglecting my xanga/revelife (more on the revelife business later).Anyway, I’ve bought 2 of my textbooks already: biology and contemporary issues in education. The other 3 are kind of problematic. I can’t find my math textbook since it’s a “looseleaf” format; my health textbook is basically brand new (aka I can’t find it for much cheaper anywhere else D: ). I’ll figure it out. I’ve already emailed my math teacher and asked him if I can get an earlier version of the math textbook. There’s a cheap one on amazon, but it’s from 2002. I definitely would not buy that without getting the instructor’s permission. I just hope I didn’t come off like a total ass by emailing him asking about that.
Speaking of emailing, I emailed Dr. James (the teacher I met on the train when I was still interning) since I’m now in her English 202 class.
My absolute final schedule is as such:
Bio Lecture MWF 9-9:50am (there wasn’t enough room in the lab…I’ll take a lab sci next semester!)
Math 139/Number Systems MWF 12-12:50pm (This class is technically for elementary ed majors, but the guy told me I could still take it)
Health Tues 4-6:45pm
FYR/R,R,R/Intro to College (whatever you want to call it) Monday 2-2:50
Contemporary Issues in Edu Tues/Thurs 1-3 (this class is going to be such a killer if it’s not interesting)
English 202 Tues/Thurs 11-12:15Yes, for the record, I do have my schedule memorized. It kind of happens when I had to write it tons of times into my planner! I have to show how I customized my planner
! This was my planner before I went crazy psycho artsy on it!! I wasn’t thrilled with the way that it looked on the outside, but I liked the layout on the inside, so I dealt with it knowing that I would be customizing it anyway. I love art opportunities.

Yea, so I’m pretty cool like that. It’s covered in plastic tape so that my fun time collaging will not be ruined with the wear and tear. I’m so excited to use it now….flowers just normally aren’t me, but I felt bad just completely covering it up, so I made it work
.That’s it in the way of college news.
Today was mostly event heavy in the morning.
C had a procedure she had to get done with her jaw. There’s something or other with it going on where she can’t open her jaw all the way :S. So they had to put her under and she’s not always very good with stuff like that since she has anxiety/panic disorder and everything. So I was mostly there for moral support and whatever. I just hope that what happened to her doesn’t happen to me because the doctor was explaining that can sometimes happen when people get scarring in their gums/jaw after they get them out. I’ll hopefully be getting mine out before I go to school. My upper left one is partially out; I can feel a partially emerged tooth. The tooth doesn’t hurt, but it needs to be checked out so I know if I’m getting them removed or not. I told my mom that it really doesn’t matter to me one way or another, but I have no problem keeping them in if the dr. says they aren’t going to cause problems (they probably will, but I’m trying to be optimistic). The other 3 are still gummy (wow, that sounds weird). Anyway, the procedure was not that long, but recovery and everything was. It was really funny seeing C get be all loopy and everything after her stuff was wearing off. I can only imagine to what extent I’m going to be like if I have to get mine out. Dunno.
We left the place where she had the procedure and went to dairy queen since her jaw was really hurting her and we got ice cream stuff.
After that I fixed up my planner and I’ve been lazying around pretty much since.
My dad is still being not nice to my stepmom. They live in DE and he hasn’t put an AC in their bedroom. She’s obese and has all sorts of health issues that that just aggravates. I hope she’s going to be ok since she said she’s not going to leave for another apartment until this weekend. I’m not sure if that’s a permanent move or what, but that situation has been on my mind. I hope it gets better soon for everyone’s sake.
I should go to bed.
‘Night.
