1) Watching an 18 year old girl and and a 25 year old boy flirt annoyingly while sitting in the front row (directly in front of me) at 7:21 AM is very IRRITATING!
2) Public transportation is a whole new world. You see/hear interesting people, view all the places you pass that you are unable to notice when driving a car, and realize that even bus drivers can have really bad road rage.
3) I really want to date a black man. They are ridiculously attractive.
4) I have no idea what the heck is going on in my philosophy class... help!

The Joys of College Life!
Today was the third day of school. I had my computer lab first thing this morning in a different building that I had never been in. I was already running late because I'm not used to my butt-crack of dawn schedule therefore getting out my front door was a bit of a challenge. More like, getting out of my bed was more of the challenge. I got to school, after watching the roads closely for cops and a speedometer rise and fall in between my freeway weaving, in a hurry to find this unknown class room. Upon my arrival to the parking lot I realized my class had already started.
I walked as fast as I could without running towards the direction I thought my class was though I really had no earthly idea. I was hoping to find those handy-dandy orientation helpers at their table with maps all ready to hand to the poor lost losery freshman such as my self. I quickly found a table of freshly printed maps along with a bright-eyed sophomore, after circling a few buildings trying to find it on my own, ready and willing to give me direction as to where my class was. She pointed me towards the building with the black windows and I went on my way. I walked to the first door I saw and of course it was locked. I found the next set of doors at the top of a brutal stair case that I hurriedly tried to walk up. I found my way inside only to realize I had another 4 flights of stairs to walk up being that my class is on the very top floor.
I reach the top and find my classroom a little way down the hall. I walk in the only available door and see 80 pairs of eyes all glancing at the lost girl walking into the classroom twenty five minutes late. Ignoring their stares, I try to find a seat fast in hopes to get the judgmental eyes out of my general direction. It was difficult to find a seat but as I neared the back, low and behold, I spotted one at the very end of the row. Of course, that required me to climb over 12 adults and block the view of twelve more behind me. Oops!
I sat down, looked around, and came to the conclusion that I am one out of six females in the entire class of 80 something people. This is going to be my favorite class by far!

Monday Morning
It is Monday morning and I am sitting here in my office all alone contemplating the sadness of what has become of my current situation. I miss my co-worker, Tyniece. I miss the fun atmosphere. I miss the drive in the air. Although, it is coming to an end, and I have other opportunities being placed before me, I can't help but be a little sad.
All weekend I have been feeling like it is the end of my life. A lot of circumstances have or already ended. For example, I was released from my calling, my housing contract is up, I am leaving my best friend, I will no longer have a job, my car is paid for as of this month, my Gold's Gym membership is up, my friend's are moving out of the ward, my computer broke, and many other events are over. I have been packing my stuff in boxes all weekend getting ready to move while thinking about my current state.
BUT THINGS ARE LOOKING UP! I signed a lease with my good friend, Becca Bates, for a really cute 2 bedroom apartment in Midvale. It has a wood burning fireplace, a great student ward, and I get the master bedroom! She gets the garage. I bought a laptop and am anxiously awaiting it's arrival to my front door. My step-dad added me to his health insurance since I am only 23, a full time student, and his favorite step-daughter. My parents have both offered to help me out with tuition, books, and some of my living expenses until I can get a job. I signed up for a couple really cool classes that I am excited about. I might buy a kingsize bed for my new apartment mainly because I want friends and family to visit a lot. I cleaned out my closet and a few other random places and have 2 1/2 large boxes ready for the DI. I got rid of more stuff that I had since sophomore year in high school. Becca and I picked out the ward we will be attending. It's super fun with lots of attractive men. Last but not least, I am starting over with a clean slate. I am changing everything about my atmosphere and though I am a little frightened, I am so excited!
It is going to be FANTASTIC!
