APO High..
Jan. 11th, 2006 08:32 pmOh APO, why do you make me so crazy?? I spend all of my time crying and bahing over you, but yet you have the power to make me the happiest girl ever.
Today started out not so good, but after chapter (yay for oreos & new folks) I was talking like I was on speed again and just generally feeling truly frolicksome. My confidence in my "shit works out mantra" is definitely coming back. I survived my first architecture pin-up with something I truly thought was horrible until I saw it from far away. I'm not nearly as intimidated by my classmates now.
The only thing bahing me at this second is the fact that the bookstore is evil beyond all reason for selling their books at a $7 mark up in some cases prompting me not to by the one one except I needed ($45 there, $28-35 elsewhere according to their price comparison sheet). I only found a few books (my humanities books) at Smith Family, one I bought used was actually cheaper new at the bookstore. LAME. The rest were at a heavy discount.
I have to buy so many supplies for studio. I keep going and buying a few things, but I always figure out that I bought the wrong things or the wrong size - it's making me crazy. The place is so crowded and they didn't stock enough for every architecture student so shit is sold out left and right.
Anyway, I truly feel better - my dinner involved beans, cheese, and chicken in a tortilla. Such goodness!! Stuff is not totally awesome, but I'm definitely feeling truly better today. The sun even came out!
What a difference an hour makes!
OH! I also discovered that my econ class is only MW!! This makes a complete world of difference as it is 2 hours and not very difficult/interesting at the moment. That means Friday I'm done at noon (after 8 hours of studio). This makes me very happy, now I'm going to be a little bit silly for the next few hours.. hooray!
