| Ok so i first must say that my feelings about the city have drastically changed since I last wrote in the this thing. I think that all i really needed was just a friend, and now i have quit a few. Of course i had brittany and I am so thankful for her as a roommate, but when she is busy and not around I would be bored out of my mind. And i must say that we have so much fun bein us around our small little appartment. Of course Lucy gives us problems here and there but our friendly ghost just wants attention. haha I am also greatful for my new friend Alex, who has supisingly not gotten annoyed with me yet. haha. And i am so excited about goin to that christams party and the pens game, i can't wait!!!! There are also the people at church that I love to hang out with as well. Tim, Michelle, Elle, Jim, Jes and Jesse....you guys are the best and i am so thankful you guys go to my church! Thanks for befriending me and inviting me to a steelers game/party where i was the only non-steeler fan....lol. Oh well I still had a blast with you all. I guess I have just been in a better mood lately and my views of my new home has changed, and im actually going to miss it here when i leave . But thankfully that is not for a while.....Thanks to all my new friends! Love you guys! | | |
| Alright, so I am officially a loser. I can honestly say that the last three nights in a row all i have done is come home, eat pizza from Pizza hut -lasted three days so i guess my money was not wasted, and watch gilmore girls. I now have sucessfully watched the entire first and second season- No not in those three days- and am moving on to the third, and its all thanks to my good friend Mandy who is letting me borrow her dvd collection. (she has all six seasons in her possesion as we speak....well not the all of them, since i am borrowing three of them, but they are still hers....lol im babbling and im going to stop now) Anyway, today I got my haircut and I must say that I was really nervous and scared that she was just going to chop my hair and make it look terrible and disgusting, but suprisingly it came out well. I have bangs so that is going to take a little to get used to, but i think it looks okay anyway. But after i got my hair cut i went to work and worked for like three hours, came home and did nothing. Its very depressing in a way, but kinda nice at the same time, cuz i wont get the apartment to myself for much longer, even though I am very lonely without anyone to talk to. I now know what it is like to be a very lonely person all by themselves. Such as the elderly folks who lost their spouse and are now living alone...I KNOW HOW THEY FEEL! and it sucks. I guess I am just sad and loney becuase I have no friends. Hopefully that will all change soon, since its now going to be the fall quarter and people from AU will be here and we can BOND!!! Can't wait! But in the mean time i am still sad and lonely, and all i am doing is constantly thinking about Sam. The last time I saw sam was like a week ago and I miss him like crazy. Our visit was nice but considering there were way too many people around, we didnt get to spend that much time together as I would have liked. It also depresses me becuase I honestly do not know when we will see each other again. I mean it could be until Christmas, which just depresses me even more becuase it is so far away, and since he just got a new job he might not even come home.....ugh! I just need somthing to keep my mind off of things. I want to call and talk to him, but i know he is busy right now so i can't. oh well. I guess i will just go to bed, I am tired and I have to work all day tomorrow. Its not gonna be fun either since i have to work with Scott, who has already tried to ask me out probably about three times and just wont get the hint. ugh! anyway, good night all who read this, which is probably none...lol oh well its more of a diary or a way for me to not be bored anymore. Goodnight! | | |
| I hate it how this school is not open whenever I need it. I am so used to Ashland and how you can work on your stuff 24/7 and the security guards were cool about it. Here....OH NO if you are not available when the school is you are screwed, and the school has the stupidest hours ever!!!!! The Art Institute of Pittsburgh...PSH! eveyone says what an honor it is to go here, well let me tell you they have given me nothing but problems since day one, and I am soooooo ready to be home right now. Pittsburgh in general has given me nothing but problems, with work, school and now my own APARTMENT!!!!! I can't seem to win here and it just keeps getting worse and worse. I just need to get through this week and then I will be able to go home for a while. Although Mandy and I will be goin on a road trip and I wont technically be home for the entire week, but I will not be in Pittsburgh and that is all i want right now, is to get away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ugh okay i am done venting now and I must go do my laundry, and take a nap, so i can be refrshed for my 15 min walk back into town so i can actually work on homework when the building is open..........AAAAahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ok i am leaving. Its a good thing OSU won last night or else this would just be the worst day ever! | | |
| Well I got my first paycheck from Joes last night and I was a tad bit dissapointed. It was way lower than i thought and I am pretty sure they messed up my hours. I am going to have to go in and talk to a manger and find out if i screwed up or if they screwed up cuz its a pathetic check for two weeks....anyway i was really bummed last night about it, and I didnt understand how to read it, its not like the Kroger check where everything is spelled out for you. Grr i was just a little annoyed about the whole situation.
Anyway, today i get to relax and chill around the house after i run errands. I don't have to go into school today except for my night class so thats such a nice feeling, I love it! In one week my friends will be here and i am so pumped! Sam, Steve and Mandy will be hanging out in my house for a couple of days and I am so not even sure what we are going to do except eat at Joes crab Shack and most likely go bowling. But im sure that anything we do will be fun so i am super excited!
I am finally gaining friends in this place. There is this one girl in my Black and White Lab named Casey, who I have become friends with! Yay! im no longer a loser haha. But she and I went out and shot a roll of film and developed together and all that kind of stuff so She is really nice and I get along with her really well. There is also this guy named Mike in my principles class who I have started to get to know, and he seems pretty cool. Also in my digital color class there is this girl named lori. She is really nice, the only problem i have with her is that she mumbles a lot and I can't ever understand her, and i swear that is one of my biggest pet peeves! enunciate people! But Oh well. Haha ok well i must be going I am starving! | | |
| For all of those who actually read this, (which is probably a total of two people and you will already know most of this information but oh well just bare with me...) I am finally moved into our new apartment in Pittsburgh PA. I am living with my good friend Brittany Hudson and we are so far having a good time living here in the city. Everyday we ride the bus into the city and go to school at the Art Institue. One of the most interesting things about this city is that everyone will talk to you, even if you are not in a talking mood. I mean seriously its almost like i have a sign above my head saying "please talk to me." But at least the people here are friendly, and for the most part not all that scary.
A week ago Brittany and I went out and decided to go job hunting. So we both filled out job applications to about 10 places. I was excited because the day i turned in my applications, i was scheduled two interviews. One was for a resturant called Smokey Bones and the other reasturant was Joes Crab Shak. Well, after my first interview with Joes i was offered the job. I will be a hostess, so i am pretty excited about that. The only problem is i have no clue when i will be starting. I have yet to get a phone call from them saying when orientations will be. Now with Smokey Bones, I have gone through 3 interviews and they still have not offered me a position yet so im wondering if they are even going to offer me a job. That is why i agreed to Joes. But if Smokey Bones has somthing better to offer then i might go with them instead, but i doubt it will get any better than Joes.
I miss my friends. They all are at home and hanging out and working and having the best times of their lives and i am here in PA sitting home on a Friday night writing a stupid xanga entry where no one will freaking read what i write anyway. What a loser. I was suppose to go to some festival tonight and it freaking rained so we couldnt go. So Brittany and I stayed home and decided to watch Bewitched. I rented it from the Library, so it was free. Which is nice since i dont have a whole lot of money right now anyway ( i could though if Joes would call me back!!!)
I watched like 6 episodes of The Hills today. I must say, I am completely obsessed. I was not a big Laguna Beach fan but my goodness i dont know what has gotten over me and watching that show, they are like the same thing only with different people. Oh my haha....
Brittany and I cooked dinner tonight: Chicken Fingers, corn, and fries. It was pretty good.
My eyes hurt....goodnight | | |
