Lone Excitement

(Quick Notice: All these times are relative to the 21st of September when I began writing the blog.)

Hahaha, ok ok, get this: today I had two tests. Yesterday I thought that I would be failing one of the two and pulling a not-too-good grade on the other. Today I have been proven wrong to a great degree. Really, after having taken the two, I'm tempted to ask... is college supposed to be hard?

About a week ago my chemistry teacher announced that our first test would be held today. So, at first, I thought that I'd have to study a lot and prepare for a very had test. Buuut then I thought it over and realize that, no, I probably would not have to do much work to get a decent grade on the test. While I had not learned the material that well when I had the course back in high school, I at least got to see it. Then, when we took the test in class, I relied mostly on my knowledge from 11th grade chemistry and I believe that I did quite well. Of the twenty-five questions--all multiple choice too--there were only a couple that I had any sort of doubt. Piece of cake. *EDIT: I found out that I got a 92, so not bad... though I should've done better*

The engineering test, on the other hand, had a huge buildup. There was all this negative hype (mostly from my sophomore friends) where people said how hard it would be and that we'd all fail it in the end. Well, while I didn't do as well as I hoped, I am quite certain that I did not fail. In fact, I would venture to say that most people did not fail. Even further, I'd go as far as to say that I did relatively well--the hubris! Sitting in the room right before the test was handed out, I expected some ridiculously hard questions, but they were so easy that I ended up finishing in half the time given. *EDIT: Ok, so I know now that I made a lot stupid mistakes. Let's just hope that it doesn't hurt my grade too badly.*

Right, so that's enough about school for now. Another--I guess good?--thing happened today: finally got a job interview set up. I mean, it's cool that I'll finally have an income once more and be able to afford the things I really want (like that trip to PR during winter break), but I as I sit here I can only wonder... is it worth the price I'm paying? See, I've done the one thing that I always said I would not. I entered the food industry. Oh the shame!

Yeah, that is correct. Soon enough I will be employed by Sbarro (or whatever company owns them). I mean, it seems like an ok job, right? Free pizza every shift? Well, I can't stand eating pizza that often, so most likely a lot of the free food will go to my friends. *deep sigh* there goes one perk. Haha, nah, the real perk will be the freedom to get whatever games I want (oh, and eventually all of Scrubs on DVD). That and not worry too much about using text messages and such. I just hope that selling my soul for the chance of some money won't come back to haunt me. What am I saying? Of course it will, it's fast food! ... double shame.

*returns after 4 hours of bathing* Now that I am slightly cleaned up, we can continue.

Well, now this'll seem kinda random, but I need to rant somewhere. Where else better than the blog? It's not necessarily a hard thing to talk about, just hard to put in to words let alone even figure out where to begin (insert there like five people telling me "from the beginning").

I dunno, as of late I'm getting slightly homesick and feeling extremely detached--for having so many people I know here that is. Really, homesick enough to just want to go back home and sleep in my bed all day. Hell, I'm even wanting to just be with my parents or something. Sadly enough, these feelings come in waves to the point that I seem bipolar to myself. It's not like I'm constantly sad and down and "emo," but when contrasted to how quickly I switch from sheer ecstasy to this, my previous statement does seem slightly valid.

Mmm, well there are multiple reasons why I'm feeling homesick and detached. Actually, it all adds up to a feeling of loneliness; being stuck here at Tech with no one to be with or no group to hang with. Over the summer I had a lot of friends and was constantly--for the most part--doing something with someone. Guess it all comes with adjusting to college life *deep sigh* ohs wells.

I'm off for the day then. Oh, check me dA sometime soon cause I'll be posting new things soon. Maybe written, maybe photographed, maybe Photoshopped?
