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 100 - End.

I think today will be my last daily blog. It is fitting, I suppose, to end on day 100. The freshman moved in today, officially marking the end of my summer and the start of a new school year.

I don;t know how I will continue with the blogs. I mean I plan to, but how will a label them? I know that is a weird thing to worry about, but I like going day by day. I would continue to do so, although here it will just be classes, meetings, art, and sleep. That wont be too exciting for a daily blog. I will just blog when I feel the need.

Day 98 - Back to School

Today I got back to school. I slept in this morning, got my Groucho's sandwich, bought a new adapter for my iPod, and hit the road.

I stopped by storage when I got into Madison Heights and I was going to get a bunch of stuff, but Megan and Jodie's things were on top. So I just grabbed my bed sheets, which were thankfully on top, and went to Walmart to buy towels and detergent.

Got to school, unpacked, and cried.

I dont want to be here.

Day 97 - Horrible Day

Today was terrible. So. Terrible.

I slept in, nice and late. Got up, packed my car, said bye to my mom, had lunch with my dad, and drove to Arlington. When I was leaving Arlington I got gas before starting the drove to Columbia, and there was this old man in the store. Apparently he had ought a prepaid phone there earlier today, and it still was not working. The woman told him that sometimes it takes a few hours to activate. So then this little old man with a cane threw the phone, breaking it to a bunch of little pieces. Then he took the largest chunk, went outside, and ran it over with his car as he was leaving. Aaaalright.

After I got gas I began the drove to Columbia. It was completely uneventful until I was an hour away from Columbia. I had been listening to an audio book and the CD played stopped working. I stopped, turned my car off and on and it was still acting up. I couldn’t switch to my iPod since the adapter for that is broken as well. Then the whole entertainment console shut off. The screen is black, with little green lines running down it. The CD player still wont work, but the radio is working, although I cant see the screen to see what channel I am on, or what the temp is set at. So that put a major damper on the last hour of my ride, since I hate the radio more than anything.

I got to the hotel, ready to put my stuff down and go get a Groucho’s sandwich. But the hotel lost my reservation. I had to sit there forever while they sorted it out, and I got hungrier and hungrier. Finally they figured it out and I walked to Groucho’s. Only to find it closed. Seriously, there were tears. I have been wanting Groucho’s all summer, and it was closed. It doesn’t open until 11 tomorrow, and I was going to leave at around 10. Bt now I think I will stick around to get lunch.

Then I left, walked back to my car, and drove to Chickfila. That was closed too. It is Wednesday. What the hell. Finally settled on McDonalds. Yuck. I have been sitting in this damn hotel room all night, on my old MySpace. When I was sifting through the 9,000 some odd friends on that one, I found 3 or 4 people using my pictures as their own, and a bunch of fakes of Jamie XTC. I clocked on those, because they are always hilarious, and for a good amount of them, I was in the top friends. What the fuck. I started clicking on a lot of younger “scene” girls MySpaces, and I was in the top friends of so many people I don’t know. It is so creepy. I deleted a good amount of them. Seriously, what the hell. I am not that interesting. Pick someone else to creep up on.

Tomorrow I will be back at Sweet Briar. Summer is over. What will happen to my blog?

Day 95 - Liam, Corbett

Today was my second to last day at home. I babysat Liam all day, and we had a lot of fun. We went to Chamblins to take in some books, and then we met up with Corbett for lunch at Chickfila. Yum. Liam and I went to Jungle Quest this afternoon, and that was so much fun. I have never been there but he goes a lot. It is mainly for kids so I was given funny looks. I didn’t care. I had so much fun hanging out with Liam. We went rock climbing and zip lining and whatnot. There was this little boy who was rock climbing with us, and I fell in love. His name was Alex and he is 6. He would race Liam and I to the top of the rock wall and even did it blindfolded with us. He was so cute. I wanted to tell hi parents I would be willing to babysit anytime but he disappeared while I was blindfolded at the rock wall. And that is saying a lot, coming from me. I hate children. But he was one of the most adorable things ever.

I spent the rest of the day packing. The End.
