what is going on in the new orleans area?!?! okay, there was a hurricane and GIGANTIC flood. but, now there is insane looting, disease outbreaks, snipers, and starving people are trapped in gyms with piles of corpses in the corners!!!! this is a huge, tragic catastrophe; why would people want to make it worse? 1,000's of people are dead/dying...and nobody can help them? we're in the united states for god's sake--things like this aren't supposed to happen here!!!! i guess it's just weird to think that they were "rich americans" (just like us!) a few days ago; now they're living like animals in a 3rd world country environment...and nobody can help them. i don't understand.
okay, on to a more cheerful subject! i only had one class today--and the teacher was british!!!! yay! i really like him.lol after class, i went to the bookstore and returned 2 books that i didn't need (yay for $60 back!), then i went to the post office. i ate lunch with my roommates, then i came back to the room to do laundry and homework for the rest of the day. really. well, i watched one episode of "full house", but that's it!
i've come to the conclusion that the bethany dining service has made its goal to fatten us all up this semester. all of the cafeteria food is absolutely drippingly laden with grease. and, it's the same way in da boom boom room (aka boomers). it's starting to really digust me. now wvu food wasn't too great, but they always had a "healthy" choice, and the salads were actually pretty good. bethany salad is not too fair either (wilty lettuce w/ stinky cheese).
i've read 182 pages of aurelius augustinus' "confessions" this week. it's muy boring, and kinda tough to comprehend...on a dr. hull level, anyway! but, i know that i'm going to learn a lot in that class this semester. and maybe fail. haha, just kidding...but i'll be working hard not to fail! my other classes don't seem bad. and, french is fun!!
i turned in my application for the call center today; kara is hiring me! so, i have a job now. well, i have training stuff next thursday and friday. THEN i'll have a job! yay for making $$$ to be able to go to spain and do fun stuff in december! and yay for getting a job really easily!lol
happy september, all. the month of september reminds me of pretty coloured leaves, newly sharpened pencils, and pleated, plaid uniform skirts. sept means seven in french. but, it's not pronounced like the month. woot.
