1st Day Of School Joys.

Ah yes, today was the first day of school. I didn't have tennis practice this morning, and my first class, which was math, started at 11am. While all of my roommates were waking up at early hours of the morning (6 or 7am) to be to their classes by 8 and 9am, I was still lying in bed. Ah its the hard life. I got myself out of bed around 9:30 and slowly started to get ready. Nervous? No. Anxiously awaiting 11 o'clock? Yes. Around 10:50, I decided I might as well start walking over to campus. As I was crossing the street at 10:55, I could hear in the distance the clock tower ringing. I warily look at my watch, then my phone. They say it is 5 mins to 11. At this point I don't know what to think. I walk to my class, open the door and see everybody sitting in there seats and the teacher is talking. Awesome. I feel like such an idiot. I hurriedly sit down. The teacher cracks a joke about students being late, while handing me a paper. He asked if I had to ask for directions. I said, no I was just late. He was really nice and didn't really care. Luckily I wasn't the only one late. While sitting in the front row, I made sure to look what time the clock said. I quietly and quickly changed my watch to say the same. For the rest of class he went over the disclosure. He is a really funny teacher and told a lot of stories. But let me tell ya...my class looks like a typical 1st day class of freshmen. It's like high school all over again, except we are suppose to act our age.

After class I begin to head back home. My next class, Astronomy, starts at 4pm....or in my case 3:55. So I have to time to kill. While walking back, I pass a girl who I give a friendly smile too and she does the same. As we are about to cross paths, she says to me, "I really like your shoes by the way." A big grin appears on my face and I say, "Thanks! I do to." (I was wearing bright blue and green Nike's) Also while sitting here in the library, a girl told me she liked my hair and thought it was cool. Awe shucks...I love my fohawk too.

On a weird side note. A girl just walked in here that has short hair just like me. It seriously is almost the same length. Although she doesn't style it like I do. I might just walk over and ask her where she gets her hair cut. Sooner than later I will need to cut my hair.

Happy day! Our goldfish named Ginger has a real fish bowl to live in now, and real food. We don't have to feed him Captain Crunch anymore. He did get moved to the bathroom counter, but when I got home from class he was sitting on my desk. Darn roommates. Ha Ha we all get along to well. Sometimes we know what each other is thinking or doing. For example...last night I decided to do laundry. I walked out of our apartment with my washing basket and headed to the laundry room, which is only 10 feet away. I begin loading the washer and realize I forgot my detergent. Great. I pull my clothes out and walk back to my apartment. I'm barely a foot inside the door when my roommate askes, "Forget your detergent?" I say, "Ugh....yes." She laughs and I give her a weird look. Then later that day I was in my room and I could hear the same roommate pulling dishes out like she was about to eat something. I ask, "Are you eating ice cream?" She laughs and says, "Yes, how did you know?!" Seriously, its scary sometimes the things we do. Gotta love it though.

Hopefully I won't be late to my class later today and for my other classes the rest of the week. So far so good though. College Life.
