Wow, what a stressful day. Today was my first day of classes back at Century. I really love Century and I'm happy to be back. I don't know what this country's deal is with 4 year colleges but of the three colleges I've been to I definitely like Century best.
My Tuesdays and Thursdays are pretty long. I'm in classes from 9:30 to 3:30 with a half hour break from 12:15 to 12:45. I start with intro to business (most of which I've already learned in my marketing classes at RF), then professional development (which should be interesting and I get to do volunteer work which is always rewarding), then intro to computer applications (which is lame because we go over MS Word, Powerpoint, Excel, and Access and the only one I don't know is Access), and finally interpersonal communications (which is a dummy course for almost everyone even if they didn't take it in HS, which I did). Then on Wednesday nights from 6 to 9 I have supervision. I haven't been to it yet, my first will be tomorrow night, so I'm not really sure what supervision is yet. It's a marketing class. Hmm. The nice thing is I've got 4 day weekends... although I guess I don't since I work. But... okay, so I could technically have a 4 day weekend if I felt like taking off work. Yeah, that's it.
To add to my stress today my landlords are being completely ridiculous. They're mad at me because I'm not moving out until the 31st even though I'm paid up until the 31st. They're mad because that means Ellyn can't move in till probably the 2nd or 3rd but how is that my fault? Ellyn doesn't even care if the carpets are shampooed or not so really it's the landlords being picky. Not to mention that because I didn't return ONE phone call (which I assumed that I didn't need to return) they tried to hunt me down and when they couldn't they came to the apartment and entered it without any permission. They even went into my room. I know it's not like they snooped or anything but the fact of the matter is that they broke the law. And after I pretty much got bitched out for not moving out earlier that kind of pisses me off. God it makes me so anxious to get the hell out of here and away from landlords who think they can do whatever the hell they want.
To add to all THAT, Dustin asked Perkins to save boxes for me but when he went to pick them up he found that they'd thrown them out. So he's going to try to get me some tonight but that equals an entire night of packing wasted and an uncertainty of how many more boxes I'll need. God, once more I say it, I can't wait till the 1oth when I'm all moved in.
I don't mean to complain but I feel like I'm under so much stress right now. I could really do with a good back massage or a day at a spa or something. I just want to be settled into my new place where they actually follow the law. I can't wait to be closer to work and school. I want to be moved and out.
The few shiny spots in my life are Dustin and my friends. I am so excited for Amber and Jono and the new life they're going to have together. I don't know anyone who deserves this happiness more than Amber. Gosh I just adore that girl. And now I'm so excited for Shan's wedding because she deserves just as much happiness. I'm so happy my friends have found great guys. I'm a little unsure about Elisa but I am hoping that I just haven't gotten a good impression of Tom. Hopefully Elisa and I can get together more and, in turn, I can get to know Tom. And D.... my wonderful Dustin. Could it be that I have FINALLY found my prince. Sometimes I worry because I thought the same thing of Rich. Then again, if Dustin and I can come together after everything that has happened in the past year then I think that says a lot about what we can survive together. I think this last year has made us stronger as friends and as a couple. Yesterday I got my pictures back from Amber's bachelorette party, a few from my weekend with D at my parents', and Amber's wedding. And there's this picture of D when we were up north that is just SO cute. I put it in a frame yesterday and then just kept glancing at it and smiling. God I love him!
Okay... time for food. More soon!
