Wednesday, August 26 - This even FEELS horribly damaged

Last night Christin and I decided to go and get some Sheetz. I had a Voice meeting, and it didnt get out until around 11:00 so we went then. Just a few miles out of Sweet Briar, a huge dog went in front of my car and I hit it, causing it to go underneath my car and dragging it for a bit. All these warning lights came on, and we had to abandon my car in the Autozone parking lot since my steering went all funny. The front bumper is cracked, as is the grill. When we were sitting at Autozone I texted Kevin and told him what had happened, although I said, "I just hit a car and now m car won't start." Instead of "I just hit a dog." So he called me immediately, freaking out. But he walked me through looking inside my hood to try to figure out what was going on. But, being a girl, I was clueless. Still, it was very sweet of him. Ashley and Kayt came to get us, thank god. On the way back to school a dog ran in front of Ashley's car. It was crazy.

This morning we had some diversity workshop, which was just frustrating for everyone invlved. The instructor was black, and there were no black people in the room, so every time we wanted to say "black" it would turn into a very awkward "african american...?" Oh well.

This afternoon I interviewed with Kristen about possibly getting the Phonathon intern position. I would love it if I get the position, as it is an amazing resume builder, but I think I will still be happy it I don't get it. I already am stressing out with everything I have on my plate, and classes haven't even started yet. So if I don't get the position, I will probably be better off. I will find out tomorrow, I think.

Speaking of tomorrow, classes are starting. I am beginning the year with printmaking, which will be awesome. Then Ancient Greece and Leadership in the Arts Organizations. I am excited.

Tomorrow I will deal with getting my car fixed. Tomorrow.

Monday, August 24 - Back at the Briar

Yesterday was the first full day for the freshman. Last night we taught them about traditions, honor code, and all of that fun stuff. Watching Caitlin Nealon and Madeline Davis act out all of the potential "uh-ohs" was hilarious. And it was interesting to learn about Sweet Briar from the perspective of a first year.

Also, Jenny and Ashley and Lauren came back yesterday. Three of my favorite people. I helped Lauren and Jenny move in, then I had SGA dinner and whatnot.

Last night Ebie, Jenny and I had lots of fun for our first night together back at school. Along with Kristen, M, and Nell we woke up a good amount of freshman by running around their halls. Jenny and I invited our little sisters along, and we hung out with them for a while. It was a good night.

Tonight Ashley and I will be going back to White Hart, after a very long vacation. I am starving thinking about it.

Day 94 - Rob, Inksmith, Heidi Montag, District 9, Little Sister

This morning Rob and I went to lunch (this morning?) at the Loop. As usual. He was going to get a tattoo today, and Eddy was going to do it, although Mike was using the table at Inksmith so we couldn’t. And Rob wanted white ink and Eddy didn’t think Rob fully understood what white ink looks like, but he did. Oh well. We left Inksmith, and went to Starbucks then his apartment. Where we beat each other up and read Heidi Montag’s terrible interview with Spencer in PlayBoy. The pictures were hilarious. I love her, just because I love to hate her so much. They are a weird group.

Once I got home I went with my mom and Liam to Publix, where I was beat up again, this time by Mikey and Liam who tag teamed me in the freezer aisle. I am going to have intense bruises on my arms tomorrow. The one that is already showing is from when I jumped onto Mikey to hug him and my arm hit his nose. Already tender and blue. Oh well.

Tonight I met Christina, my little sister for school. We met up at Starbucks in San Marco and just talked about school and Jacksonville and whatnot. We seem to be really similar and I m excited about this.

After I left San Marco I drove to Tinseltown and met up with Kevin and we saw District 9. I have heard so much about it being one of the most amazing movies ever, but I thought it was just really weird. I didn’t see how it was so amazing. It was alright. Once we left the theater we sat on my car and talked, and laughed at all of the hilariously awkward couples in the parking lot until we realized we were a part of it. There were these two horribly annoying girls running through the parking lot, obviously hiding from someone. They were running and yelling and being really obnoxious. Kevin wanted to shoot them with his paint ball gun. I encouraged him to do so, but he wouldn’t. Finally we realized that they were the third and fourth wheels on their friends date, and turned out it was this girl’s first date with this guy. It was a hilarious situation to watch unfold. We eventually left and got Icee’s. I usually don’t like having more than one Icee flavor at once, but Kevin made the most magical concoction. It was delicious. We went back to the Tinseltown parking lot so he could get his car. We sat there and talked, and we both fell asleep in my car. Not for very long, but it happened. I was exhausted.
