Semester

The new semester is off to a fast start. The day is almost over, and I've somehow managed to change my class schedule 3 times, work 6hrs attend 3 class, go shopping and eat at the Pita Pit. I think all in all a great day. I might even get the chance to go home and sleep ;)

This semester is going to cause me severe problems, I can already tell. Taking the heaviest class load ever, working at the office all by my self.... (means being on call) ... low energy level (need to exercise) and no car! NO CAR! For some reason, this is the worst. This city, is not designed for the car less. There aren't even sidewalks on my way to work. So i have to march through heavy snow or slush. Good thing I bought those heavy water proff boots! Thanks Saloumeh, you were right. there's just something about now having a car that is really bothering me.

1) If I want to drive and pick up my girlfriend, I can't. Sometimes it's just nice to pick people up in a nice warm car.
2) Since I don't drive, country music is never on the radio
3) Late to classes, ... I know this will be a problem. not that having a car didn't cause lots of parking tickets, but at least I could get to class faster (20 min)
4) roadtrips... I guess this could be argued either way. No roadtrips means I spend less... but have less fun. ...
5) bars... now i don't go to the bars much.... but my roomates go even less... so no bar trips for me, unless someone is willing to drive me around....

Ok, enough whining, ... but I really wasn't trying to. Well, I have class in 40 min and I need to catch the bus. CiAO!
