OLIVIA'S COLLEGE UPDATE!

TOP FIVE THINGS TO LOVE ABOUT COLLEGE:

1. The TA that is teaching my Honors Class! Surrre, I might have given him the impression that I might be dumb when I brought the US Weekly talking about Britney Spears drinking with the babies (READ IT!) as my example of an arguement, but it WAS! And it was the only magazine I had close by and what a loser I would have been to bring a book! But moving forward, he's like a Zach Braff/ I don't know what teacher guy who is funny and lets us out of class early a lot of the time. The only downside is that he really likes Chuck Klosterman (spelling?) and I tried to read one of his books and felt that he is a pretentious asshole who really isn't that attractive. So I don't think that our love can be.

2. I don't have to make food! I just swipe a card and BAM I have food! Meal Plans are the best thing ever. Sure, it's not free, but it's effortless and abundant.

3. I am getting awesome exercise walking to class/everywhere imaginable. I don't feel that guilty about the chicken nuggets I had for lunch, because I walked across campus twice and a half today. AND I got a side salad! It's like I'm training for the Olympics!

4. All my new friends are always around, because we live in the same square mile. I miss the other friends supremely, but these new ones are pretty good. My dorm is RIGHT in the middle of campus, so it's like I live in the center of a tiny little town filled with thousands of people.

5. Short, short days, despite taking 15 hours. I'm done by 12:30 pm three days a week, the other two by 2:05 pm. And so I get done, and am supposed to do homework. So I take a nap, and it's great! My roommate snores, so I have to find some way to get a little rejuvenated halfway through my day.

TOP FIVE BAD THINGS ABOUT COLLEGE:

1. Once people find out I have my Jeep up here, they want me to take them places. I have no problem with this, because I love driving. I'm good at it, I can drift (not in the Jeep, of course). But I do have a problem when people comment on my driving, "Olivia, why are you letting all these people cross?" "Olivia, try not to hit the curb next time." "Olivia, you shouldn't yell so much at the other drivers." You can suck it, and go find another ride.

2. Communal bathrooms in my dorm. They are sucky. I can't have a relaxing shower while two other people are having a relaxing shower next to me! That leaves no relaxation for me! They are using up the relaxation. And, every time someone flushes a toilet, the water pressure becomes nonexistent.

3. Living with a stranger...I hate it! My roommate is MEAN too! And she keeps saying "You know, I told you that I was a nice person and like everyone, but you just don't like me." OKAY! She is the one that is mean! I am a very nice person!!! She came in at almost one in the morning and turned on her TV while I was sleeping, so I roll over and very nicely ask her if she'd mind turning it off. So this turns into some GIANT thing where now she wants a new roommate, but now we're kind of getting along, but we had a giant fight so there's that. Shitty shit.

4. Having to go the basement to do laundry is like a bad movie! I have done my own laundry for years, but not in a basement. I feel like once I go down there it's either going to turn into a bad porno or a shitty horror film with a low budget. My solution? Don't do laundry. Wait until I go home and ask my mom to do it. She didn't this weekend, and I had to, but it was at least in a civilized laundry ROOM. Not a laundry prison.

5. I have to dress up four days in a row for Sorority Recruitment. It might kill me. BUT I'm going to look so cute it might blind you. No joke. The first day is tomorrow so I'll be not blogging for a good minute. (like, five days). But I haven't been blogging too crazily anyway so it's not like a shock to anyone's system I bet. But dressing up is great for one day, maybe a few hours. I have to dress up for four days for like, a million hours. And not bring a purse, wow, where will I put my knives? Noooo idea.

But yeah, college is great so far. Peach Slice and Teddy Grams and Peanut Butter constituting as a meal is the best thing ever.
