Cut off! Isolated!

Well... I'm here. Definitely not what I had expected, as far as anything goes, but classes haven't even started yet, so I shouldn't judge. The only "intellectual" people I've met spend almost all of their time arguing over insane bits of obscure politics, and getting drunk. The amount of drunkeness is depressing. And the noise on my floor.... my floor is basically the "party" floor, where everyone stays up late running up and down the hallways playing drunken games of hide and go seek. I think I might have to transfer to one of the quieter dorms.

And, on top of all of this, I'm completely cut off. I have to wait almost half an hour for buses all the time, I haven't talked to anyone I know besides my mom, my internet is broken (ethernet AND wireless)... it sucks! Plus I still have no idea what the heck is going on with the track team, I don't have a job yet and... well, actually I should probably stop complaining and try to do something about it, but it feels better to get it out right now. I've got a ton of backdated entries saved on my computer that cover most everything I've done so far, besides the cramming into strangers' cars and such, so once I finally get that sorted out (in maybe a week, yuck) those will get posted. Gosh, this place is so frustrating!!

VILENESS

I will be happy once the quarter starts, I will be happy once the quarter starts, I will... ah, screw it. I keep telling myself that it will get better, but it just keeps getting worse. These people are insane. And the upperclassmen are the worst. You'd expect them to have at least some level of maturity. It's funny... the sanest one is our RA. I guess that makes sense, though. The reason that seems weird to me, though, is because he spent two years in the Singaporean (?) police (mandatory service) and he drives like a freaking maniac. I know this, because I ended up piled in the back of his car with about four other people. Very strange stuff, but the strange thing is he isn't the worst driver I've ever been in a car with.

So, really I'm just sitting here waiting for three so I can go down to the "Student Activities Fair" and hope I don't run into my track coach or anything, because she obviously hasn't gotten my e-mail yet, and I don't have a physical so I can't begin practice with the team when they start. I feel really bad, because now it just looks like I didn't bother because I didn't want to be on the team. Though, it probably would be better if I wasn't, since I've got four classes, and a work-study job to find.
