I'm transfering. Or hopefully I am if Purchase College ever gets their fucking shit together. They wont give me a copy of my transcript. I'm not even asking them to send it to Hunter for me. I just asked if I could get an officially sealed to student transcript so that I can send it to Hunter myself. I don't trust this school to mail it or do anything. And obviously I'm right to not do so since they won't even give me my own fucking transcript. I used to love this school, but right now it's frustrating me so much that I can't stand to be here. I want to scream so loudly, but I can't because the stupid dorm I'm in has courtesy hours, which basically means I have to be quiet all the time.
I think I'm just going to print out my own transcript and send it to Hunter and I'm hoping they'll take it even if it's an unofficial one. If I can't get into Hunter because they won't give me an official transcript then I'm not going to school. I refuse to stay here any longer and pay $15,000 for a shitty school that can't do anything right. I'm paying for shitty, unhealthy food, a campus full of construction, an incompetent mail room, workers who don't know how to do their job. It's so frustrating and I can't take it anymore. I feel like I'm being punished and I don't know why. I might as well be a college dropout.

Raindrops on Roses
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

The dentist is NOT one of my favorite things, my best friend is. I came home this weekend because I had a 930 dentist appointment. The dentist is ALWAY late and it annoys the hell out of me. He didn't see me until almost noon. Finally we started and he pulled that crap where the needle won't hurt, but it always does. I felt so shitty and number after wards that I needed to take a nap.
I woke up around 2 and helped my mom around the house for a bit before helping her start dinner. We made sloppy joes for me and lobster tails for her and my dad. My mom made me try it because I've never tried it before. I don't like it, which I knew would happen because I'm not a fish or seafood person. I like shrimp, but that's about it.
After dinner I met up with Kriztille in Forest Hills at Crepe and Tearia. We sat and talked for quite awhile before going over to Barnes and Noble. The weather was so crappy this weekend, and I didn't pack the right clothes or shoes for it, haha. We spent a lot of time perusing through the books, but ended up not buying anything. Books are so expensive now. Most of the books I found were like 15 dollars. They had quite a bit of marvel stuff because it's Marvel's 70th year. They had a lot of X-men books, which I love, but they were like 25 dollars. I'm too poor, haha. It was so great spending time with Kriztille, I'm really glad we got to meet up.
On a side note -- I don't know if i like clams. I like Manhattan clam chowder, but I've never really had clams outside of the chowder. So I don't know if that means I like them or not, haha. I guess I'll just have to try clams that aren't in chowder one day.

Frustrating
Last night I stayed up writing a two page comparison on Joy Harjo's poem The Woman Hanging on the 13th Floor Window and Adrienne Rich's Diving into the Wreck. I really hate analyzing poetry and it took me forever to do. I went to the library to do it because I needed to focus and not be surrounded by distractions and I needed to print it. After that Jon called me saying he needed help on the Google homework. I was supposed to do it with Kyle so we all agreed to meet at Jon's. I didn't get back to my room until 130 and was really exhausted.
Stupidly I forgot to turn the volume back on my phone. I didn't hear my alarm and slept through my first class. Thankfully I woke up in time for my last two classes. Birth and Death wasn't bad, but Colloquium made me want to jump off a cliff. We did nothing in class and then I find out the paper I stayed up working on wasn't even due. It's on the syllabus, but she didn't realize we had off for Labor Day and didn't change it on the syllabus. She accepted it, but it still annoyed me that I didn't have to do it.
On a side note -- I'm really excited to come home this weekend. I hate the dentist, but I'm really glad to be in my nice soft bed and surrounded by my four cats. The bed here is so firm and uncomfortable even with the mattress pad on it.

Coffee Maze
Today started off really shitty. I woke up around 730 to get ready for what was supposed to be my training day at Applebees as a hostess. I get there and find out that they over hired and no longer have a position for me. I had to wait an hour for the next shuttle to come so I walked around a bit looking for places to put in applications. However because it was so early a lot of stores weren't open. I did put in some applications at a few cafes.
I took a nap after I got back and then Jenn called around 130. She's been stuck hanging around campus because her car has been in the shop. So we hung around outside at the picnic tables by Starbucks. We were there until 5ish. A long ass time talking and chilling. It was a fun day. I miss living with Jenn.
Later that night Kyle came over and we watched the Labyrinth. Hanging out with Kyle is always really fun. I'm definitely going to miss seeing him all the time when I transfer.
On a side note -- I know all the lyrics to the songs in Labyrinth and quite a few lines. Haha, makes me feel like a nerd.

Back to the Future is Taboo
I watched Back to the Future and Back to the Future Part 2 for the first time. I still need to watch Back to the Future Part 3. I went to Jon's place to watch.
Thankfully there were no classes today because it was Labor Day. The break was well spent. I went over to Jon's and played Taboo with Lauren and Matt. It was so much fun! I had forgotten how much I loved playing Taboo. At first it was Jon and I against Lauren and Matt. They won the first round. Next it was girls versus boys. Lauren and I were in the lead for awhile, but unfortunately we got beat (by one point!) by Jon and Matt. I was still super fun and I laughed so hard. It was a good day off.
On a side note -- My schedule is crazy know and I need a job to fill in all the free time. Because I'm transfering next semester (even though I don't want to) I'm withdrawal from Intermediate French because I want to take a different language. So now that I don't have French on Tuesdays and Fridays, I only have class Mondays and Thursdays. I have Search in the Age of Google at 1030, Birth and Death at 1230, and Colloquium I at 230. I have Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays were I have no class. It's nice to sleep in, but I need something to do. I've started trying to do my homework on those days, because all my stuff for 3 classes is due on the same days. That's what kind of sucks having classes on two days.
