Arghhh

Ok, so I have like a million things to write about, but I don't know how much I'll get done because I have work at 4. So first I'll go through my classes for today

Advanced Comp Honors: B.White class. Chelsea Tobin is in it, so is Kia, Emily Rose, Micah, and loads of other cool kids. It's a lot about revision and fixing our work. I'm nervous and excited about this. I am not usually big on revision, but I hope this class will get me more into it. We have like 4 papers to write. The final one is going to be like 10 pages. I'm thinking about writing about the Socialization of Youth into Gender Roles. Seems exciting!

Art History I: Julia Franklin class! I love Julia Franklin. She's a cool customer. I was originally not too excited because I didn't think I would know anyone in this class, but I was SO wrong! Ali Thomas is in my class, so is Sarah, and loads of other people. I feel like it's going to be super fun! Plus, J.Franklin gave us all crayons! So cool.

Creative Writing Fiction: Another B.White class. Cori, Corienne, Sarah, and so many more are in this class. I am nervous, because this class is going to be intense. But I'm also really stoked, because I can already tell that I am going to benefit from this class SO much.

So those were my classes. I'm pretty excited about all of them. I think it will be an awesome semester. But now, I have decisions to make.

Ok, so after my first B.White class, B asked me to wait after class so he could ask me a question. I assumed it would be about the Tower. So I hung around, blah blah. So then he asks me if I want to be his work study! What! Like I am still shocked. I mean, I'm flattered that I was thought of, and to be honest there is no way I'm going to say no, but I do have thinking to do. He says it will only be about 3-5 hours a week, which isn't bad. But if I'm thinking about the weeks where I'm going away for Art in the City, I'm thinking it will be rough. Plus, I mean I HAVE promised myself a social life this semester. So I was thinking about it, and thinking about it, and thinking about it. And I realize, there is no way this thing is taking me from my social life, something else is taking me from my social life. That thing is the Kum & Go. I mean honestly, today if I wasn't working, I would be out to lunch with Ali right now, and probably going to the Volleyball game later for Chelsea. But, instead, I am going to work. I don't know. I mean really I know I shouldn't quit, but I really want to. Like I'm in college. I'm sick of passing up awesome friend-time to go to a shitty job. And plus, if I were to leave, I have an awesome reason, I'm going to be B.White's work study! I don't know. I think I'm going to work it out in my brain while I'm at work today and try and make my decision.

I mean, I move 19 hours away from home to come to school here. I left everything I knew to have the college experience. I deserve this right?

Back to school!

Today I go back to school! I am so excited!!!!

Day 45


Day 45- A moment, song, or phrase that has changed your life the most

Ok, so it isn't a song or a phrase, kind of a moment, but not really. It's a movie. So, I was knee deep in my depression...more like neck deep haha...and one evening I sat down to watch this movie. And this movie just made me realize something. It made me realize that we all go through crap, obviously some have it worse than others. And that the crap we go through shouldn't stop us from living our lives. I mean in the movie, this man goes through the Holocaust, he is basically skin and bones, but he pushes for his right to live his life, he survives. It is utterly amazing. And truly, it gave me inspiration. Watching this movie was the turning point in my life where I decided I wasn't going to sit idly by and let my depression take over my life. I know it might sound silly to others, but this movie really did change me. And it probably didn't exactly help my infatuation with the Jewish culture. I mean all the Jewish people were able to conquer such hate (I mean obviously too many died, but I mean the ones that did survive). Like I don't meet many Jewish people who hate every single German person. I don't see as much hatred and resentment from Jewish people. And I think that's also a big part of it. People will wrong you, but you just have to move on and live your life. That's what this movie made me realize, and it really did help me turn myself around.

Day 43

Day 43- A memory that never fails to make you laugh

Hmmm. I don't know if I have a memory like that. I'm trying to think....Bahah the only one I can think of right now is kind of silly. Ok, so the one I can think of is when the kids in my english class in 11th grade decided to play a prank on my craptastic teacher. I really truly disliked this guy, and he was an awful teacher. So this one kid goes up to get the teacher to sign his hall pass. And he gave the teacher the pen and when the teacher pressed down the clicker thing, it shocked him. He jumped and made such a hilarious sound. Like honestly, there is no possible way to tell the story and make it as funny as the vision I have in my head. It always makes me smile haha.
