Waking Up to Chaos and Confusion

I’m not in the best moods right now. I have been awakened from my slumber. I came to the house and made my way upstairs because I had a headache. Off to bed… About an hour later, I hear singing, running, screaming, all at once. The house is full of small people and they are all making noise. I’m afraid to go downstairs and see just how many there are. I hear one in particular, she has taken over the piano and is singing some song to her heart’s content all while banging on the poor instrument. Another one is yelling at the soloist to shut up and another one is just running. Now I hear L yelling too. Is there no rest for the weary? LOL. I am sure my headache is about to get worse. Thank goodness… I hear goodbyes. Peace and quiet once again!! I have got to get a place of my own.
I’m starting to see the same people on the subway everyday now: the fat Latino girl with the tat on her neck who seems to always find a home in her nose; the short ethnic (don’t know what she is) chick with the glasses who constantly squints and chews her gum like a cow; the tall old man from up the street who sleeps the entire route. I’ve got a whole list of regulars. Oh… I have to tell you about my first girl on girl experience. It was just terrifying. I get on the bus towards the school. A minute later, a resident runs to the bus flagging it down. She was too busy getting her coffee to get on moments earlier. Anyway… she gets on the bus. The bus begins to move forward and it jerks (they all do). She comes flying into me. This is the closest I have been up on another female before. I felt her damn breathe on my neck. GIRL… GET OFF ME!!! I just froze and turned my face to avoid a possible kiss. I let her get her footing and she apologized for the awkwardness and moved on. Geez…. Wasn’t expecting all that!! I would have worn a different outfit had I known I was going to be jumped on. JUST JOKING!!!!!!!
Classes are moving along pretty well. The material is starting to get pretty thick. Who would have imagined that? I’m trying to keep up my reading so I don’t end up with chapters of information to learn days before the exam. So far, so good. I had my first class of Psychopathology yesterday. I really like it!!! The professor is interesting and I think I will leave it to that until I get my final grade. The class is pretty small and discussion is a major portion. I was afraid I was going to hit the desk when I realized the class was three hours long; however, I not only managed to stay awake, but I actually enjoyed it. Who knew?
I think my mood has picked up. I no longer am on the bed scowling. Ok… let me go. I’ve got to do some apartment shopping, some reading, and I must go look for food. I am HUNGRY. L has stopped banging those pots. I’m sad!!! Stouffers pot pie here I come…
