22yo
Hey everyone! I’ve just realized that it’s been a terribly long time since I’ve touched base here, and since this may be my last chance to blog for a few days, I thought I’d write a little something to catch everyone up on the glorious happenings of Vampirateloyal! *arr* 
First up, I do apologize for being such a quiet riot this week. I would blame it on last-second flight-of-the-bumblebee prep for the upcoming semester, but I’ll be perfectly honest and admit to spending countless hours sitting on my ass playing this:
Not to say that this glorious piece of adventure gaming is completely to blame! I, in fact, HAVE been running myself ragged making sure I have everything in order for my last chunk of generals before my much-awaited transfer. Though I have to say, it was MUCH less of a headache than usual. Mostly because I had such a TINY book load this year… I was able to put the $31 worth of COLLEGE BOOKS (yes, I know it’s hard to believe) on my debit card the day BEFORE Financial Aid book charges could turn my small college bookstore into a pocket pandemonium.
It was such a relief for me. I hate buying books for school. I’m sure those of you in college can all relate to this one. 
Anyway, time for my class lineup of Spring ’10! Here’s the list for right now… a few complications may change a class or two yet:
- PED 173 – Rock climbing and repelling… Yes. I know! It’s possibly the coolest class in scholarly existence isn’t it? Rock climbing for PE credit… next I’ll be eating yummy Olive Garden salads for a health course credit! (wouldn’t THAT be lovely?) Best part is, we only meet a few times throughout the semester… meaning I don’t have to run my poor new car (yes a NEW car… but more on that later) to my campus every single week. VERY good news indeed.
- ENG 242 – Survey of American Literature Pt. II… with the greatest professor I think I’ve ever had. I’m SOOO glad she wasn’t full when I enrolled. Looks like a fun lineup this time too! We’re reading The Haunting of Hill House… the first American horror novel. And you all know how I need my horror fix to stay sane.
- PSY 232 – Developmental Psychology. The best thing about this class? I can play on youtube the entire time and still get an A. VERY easy class.
- GEO 220 – World Regional Geography. Another online class, which works out great for me since I do better with this stuff at my own pace. Hopefully I’ll grasp this subject better than last semester…
- CST 110 – Speech. *gulp*….
And after all of that is finished, I will finally step up on that podium in my PTK regalia and accept my first college degree! *giggle* I just hope I don’t trip. And I hope even more that they pronounce my NAME correctly. I’m debating on whether or not to write down how to pronounce it on my name card before getting in line. Or would that just piss them off?
Anyway, on with my more recent news: I HAVE A CAR!!! And trust me, I did NOT see it coming. Basically I walked into my mother’s computer room a few days ago and she and Dad are looking at a picture of this old Chevy Corsica… and lo and behold, it’s for me.
So naturally I tired myself out from running around the house squealing “I’ve got a car! I’ve got a car!” for the rest of the afternoon. I didn’t get to see the car until the next day, and I had to hike up our still-frozen hill to “meet” my new ride. It’s an ’85, but in VERY good shape. Front wheel drive. Impressed the hell out of our mechanic how well it runs. Nice gold color. I think I’m gonna call it the Golden Snitch.
As for pictures, I don’t have any on me at the moment. Plus I want to personalize the car a bit before snapping any pics. But when I do I’ll post them here. God… still can’t believe I own a damn CAR!!! *sighs happily*
Anyway, I’m here typing away and I should be working on my other school project: an online newspaper which I’ve been asked by the other officers to design! Problem is… no one will contact me to tell me what they want it to look like. So it looks like I’m flying by the seat of my pants again. Good thing for them, some of my best designs have happened that way.
Wish me luck! *drives off into the sunset in my “new” car*
You must post pictures. 
The classes that I want to take to start my degree… one book alone is like $180. That’s probably one of the reasons I’m still not in college.
OMG, a new car?! Fucking lucky! I myself actually don’t drive at all, as I don’t really feel it’s nessesary.
I’m able to reach every single store/building in my entire city on foot, plus I enjoy walking everywhere, ((Even though my feet always hurt afterwards since I’m usually wearing Chuck Taylors,)) Plus, I don’t like the idea of spending loads of money on gas/insurance/car repairs/blahblahblah, PLUS, I’m saving the enviroment by not driving.
AND getting exercise.
XD! LMAO, but that’s all the stuff I’m DYINg to tell people who say to me, ‘OMG YOU DON’T DRIVE?! OMG WHY?! OMG I FEEL SO BAD FOR YOUUUU.’ Fuckfaces. I don’t have to fucking drive if I don’t want to. Eat me.
-_-
Er, but anyway. I really went off there. Ignore me, I’m very tired. I’m actually happy for you that you got a car! I was just reminded of assholes who act like my NOT having a car/driving is similar to being on my deathbed. Pfft.
