Loaded Gun

I have successfully made it through my first week of semester 2. I get monday/friday off each week, so I only have three days a week. Tuesday from 12-6, Wednesday from 8-5:30 (such a long day, because I barely get any breaks) and Thursday from 1-5:30. We didn’t really do much in any of the classes this week, and I actually managed to fall asleep in one of my classes.
My photography class is on Wed. from 1-3. You’d think that, it being photography and all, I’d be super excited for it- and I was. But it’s not really what I expected. The first class, we just watched a video of the history of photography.. so it was a dark room, and I was tired/uncomfortable, and I just ended up falling asleep while sitting up. During the course, there are 4 Canon cameras to be split between around 43 of us in the class, so we’ll get virtually no time with it. We aren’t allowed to bring our own cameras in, because that makes it ‘unfair’ if we have a different/better camera and/or lens. It’s going to be a mess, but I guess it’s all we have to work with.
For the most part, I’m pretty much a loner in my class- I switched from the Creative to the Digital program, so anyone I talked to (though I didn’t talk to many people often, and I tried to avoid the one who always talked to me the best I could) but I did make one friend. Kind of. Ish a friend. But you know, it gives me someone to (sometimes) talk to in class so it’s good, right?
But now I’m off to work from 11-8, this is probably how I’ll spend every monday/friday I have off. Though I do have the rest of the weekend off after this, so I’m excited!

Time Well Spent

If I hadn’t started watching How I Met Your Mother, I’m not sure what I would spend my time doing this break. Since I finished school, I have barely worked so all of my time goes into watching HIMYM and hanging out with my friends- today I went shopping (to three different malls, fail.. bought 2 dresses) and then went out for dinner as well. Tumblr hasn’t even been working for me, so I find myself looking up hilarious duckface pictures or Photoshop Fails, because both are things that oddly bring hours of entertainment.
This is definitely my slack break. I’m hoping that in the summer, I’ll have a different job – or at least get more hours at mine, like I did last summer. Otherwise, my time will be spent looking at funny autocorrect fails. But that wouldn’t be time I regretted… at all.

Come Home

In retrospect, it was probably a bad idea to have my first post in over a month be one like that. I’m sure many of you can guess who it was about, so I don’t even have to say. Just know, I am okay and I just needed to get that anger out somewhere (though the body combat class yesterday was pretty damn helpful too). And it was a bit delayed anyways but, better late than never. I will not go into that story, as you will all scoff at me even if I some-what think I was in an okay mindset when it was all going on.
So um, I’ve been good lately. I’m 19 now, and I had quite a nice birthday bar-bash. I’ve been to the LCBO once since then, to buy Jack Daniels. It actually tastes worse with lemonade then on it’s own, which is alright but too spicy for my liking. School is.. school. I’m getting super high marks (like, 100% in one class) in all my classes except one ’cause I can’t draw for shit, but it’s because I already know all of the material so class feels like a waste of my time. Exams are coming up, and it’s just like highschool in the terms of, they pile all of the actual projects on us last minute and spend the whole semester giving us projects where all we have to do is follow the instructions and prove that we know how to make a folder on a mac. Really, this is what I’m paying for? But I need the actual education, sigh. And even better, this frday I get to be at school from 8am until 9pm. Class starts at 8am, and I have an exam for my online class from 7-9pm at the school. SUPER FUN!
Work is, work. Not as annoying anymore, but we go through employees like mad. It’s annoying, and too many people call in sick… Oh, and I have a truck now. Like, it’s in my name and is bad ass and has a reindeer nose and antlers on it. It’s awesome. And killer on gas, but I barely get to drive it anyways cause my dad takes it instead cause he thinks I don’t like it or something, and will want to give it to him. No. I want to drive it. Even if it kills me on gas.
Once exams are over, I’m going to try to re-do this site and put up a new layout. And hopefully, I’ll have better time management skills next semester and I can add blogging back into my life. I missed it, and all of the commenters and blogs that I followed along with. Hopefully it’ll come back.

Tomorrow

I know I’ve been M.I.A for awhile. With school, work, friends, birthdays, super nice October weather, 2 (and a half) visits to N, going to the CMT Hit List Tour (with David), getting asked out by a guy in my class, and many other things.. it’s hard to find time to blog.
There’s a lot I could say. To start, N and I are just going to be friends. His decision, and I understand. David and I, currently just friends. David’s ex and I… not really friends anymore, I don’t think. Because he told her that he wants us to get back together (which is something I figured he would never tell her) and now she basically hates me and went a little bit psycho. But I was starting to get the psycho vibe from her before any of that happened (and just a little side note: nothing has happened with David and I).
And even just now, I got sidetracked from this blog. And I have to be up in 7 hours for school, so I’m going to sleep now. But I promise to try and update you all on my life soon, and hopefully get a new layout soon too! I am learning more about graphic (and a little web) design, so I might as well put it to use!
