I'm alive... I SWEAR!!!!!
Ummm... Hey guys! ^^;; Been a while hasn't it eheheh... I have an addiction... And its DA... XD;;; I haven't had too much going on here besides class and my job. Yeah i got a job working register at a local grocery store :3 I've only worked the register for 3 days so its something I'm still trying to get used to. I GET TO USE A SCANNER NOW! (my old grocery store job didn't have scanners D: lol)
Here's something I'll crosspost from my DA Jouranl...
DA JOURNAL ENTRY: 2 Snowdays in a row!
As the above title states, I just had 2 snowdays in a row! 8D *seizure of love* Its apparently the first time in campus history that we've had 2 snowdays in a row (Mon-Thurs. days only) We got the news about the storm coming last Sunday, saying that we have a Winter Storm Warning from Tuesday-Wednesday. I was surprised in the fact that we got notified 3 days in advance about it XD;; But the storm didn't hit until late Tuesday night, early Wednesday morning. But when it did holy carp it was amazing!
*cue Wednesday morning*
Wednesday I only had 1 class so it was kind of depressing that I only had 1 class get cancelled, but I then also had to work. Needless to say it was difficult to dig my car out and get to work driving 15-20mph the entire way D: Good thing campus isn't that far from my job. I went out to leave 1 hour before my shift so I wouldn't be late. But it took me 30-45minutes alone just to dig my CAR out! And my pants were so long that the were folding over my shoes (should've worn my boots *headdesk*) and they froze! MY FRICKIN PANTS FROZE! OMFGWTFBBQ?! By the time I finished it was 3:09pm and I was scheduled for 3:30pm... With my luck it would take me forever just to drive to work D: If I even made it all the way... So I called my job saying I could possibly be late, but that I was on my way. They told me to drive safe (that's a given lol)... I finally get there and I'm actually 5 minutes early!? So I work my shift at the register to be amazed the entire 5 hours that there were so many people shopping in the blizzard. Oh? I didn't mention? I HAD TO DRIVE TO WORK IN A BLIZZARD!!!!! D8 So yeah, apparently a majority of people shop in blizzards.
When I get off my shift at 8:30pm I hear on the intercom that the store is closing in 15 minutes... *cue jeopardy music* Isn't this a 24/7 store?... *pause to think*... OMFG THE STORM IS THAT BAD!? *end jeopardy music* Yeah we had to close because the weather was getting worse! And no one could make the night shifts! D8 Turns out the local WalMart closed too because it lost electricity! (it was open again the next day though) So I call my sister asking if she needed any food desperetly and she said "microwave macarroni" (i can't spell stfu) So I run around and grab 2 loaves of french bread, 2 boxes of microwave macarroni and 5 FastBreaks (sale!)... As I'm walking out to my car I pray that its not snowed-in in the parking lot. Luckily I was able to escape the surrounding drifts *thank you God* And I made it back home safely through the blizzard (yes its still going strong at this point)... I get home and eat a slice of pizza, chug a 16oz. root beer, finished my pint of chocolate ice cream and went to bed.
*cue Thursday morning*
Its now Thursday morning around 6am or so, and my sister just whispered to me that school has been cancelled again. (internal organs screaming for joy) Now all my Thursday classes were cancelled (total of 3) ;D And I don't have to work! I GET TO SLEEP IN!!! XDDDD . . . I woke up at noon. >>;; I was going to check my mail/DA real quick, grab my handkerchief to blindfold me from the light seeping through the shades and go back to bed... I never made it back to my bed. I figured I should just stay up and I'll go to bed early or something. (pffft never happened) So I put on the Weather Channel since it makes great background music and I wanna see just what else is instore for the area... Can you say National News!? YES! MAR-frickin-QUETTE MADE THE NATIONAL/Weather Channel NEWS!!! 8DDDD They even showed downtown and said that we got over 30+ inches of snow. *looks outside and can see grass* >>;;; Apparently all that 30+ inches got blown around into 16ft deep drifts or is all on the mountain XD;; Its interesting, we just had ALL of the snow melt and now its all back again...
*slowly raises hand* Its my fault. I've been dreaming of this storm ever since I was 2 years old. And I'm exstatic! 8D And everyone is cursing me for it... Well, the people who wanted to go home this weekend >>;;;;
*cue Friday music*
Its now Friday. *glances outside* And the wind is still whiping the snow around really nicely like the Blizzard from Wednesday. And my wallmate, Marissa, is supposed to go home this weekend (2-3 hours away in good weather) but apparently my sister was recruited to help dig her car out of the parking lot. And to later notice that there's a chest-high drift across the parkinglot entrance. So you can't even get out of the parking lot! D8 And I have to work today!? Luckily I parked in the Commuter parking lot since I didn't even want to try and find an open spot in the Upperclassman parkinglot (fills up fast)... And as I passed the Upperclassman parkinglot Wednesday night I noticed cars/trucks were all stuck in the entrance and throughout the parkinglot XD;;; So I was glad I didn't even attempt. I was able to park in the Commuter lot pretty easily and since there weren't many cars I didn't have to worry about drifts forming between the cars (i left large spots between me and the nearest car, like 30ft lol)... But now I'm afraid I'll get stuck in the entrance/exit of the lot! XD;; So I'm gonna go walk the Commuter lot before I leave to see if I could even make it in my dinky car >>;; And then call work and for-warn them or apologize for not being able to come to work. Unless I walk o____o;
END OF SNOWDAY NEWS Holy carp that was long! D:
. . . . . . . . . . .
Other then that, not much to say around here >>;; Just trying to do well in my classes this semester since I sucked horribly last term D: I'll be staying in town for the summer instead of going home to work and coming back. I've found a house for the fall/school year but now I'm trying to find a place for the summer >>;;;; That's proving to be a little more difficult *gags* Oh yeah and my sister is staying up here with me over the summer if she gets a job... Emphasis on "IF" lol
Hoping to make a trip down to ACen'07 this year to see all my favorite DA artists in person :D So I'm trying to get a group of my friends (ie: Nee-chan, Bekki, anyone else willing) to come along :3 I don't wanna go by myself, its not very fun driving through Chicago terrified without a friend lol XD;;
So I guess that's about it for now... I'll try to update again more frequently with the tiniest of news!!! Sorry to everyone for not commenting ;____; I'm sorry!!
Miss you all D:
