Tired...going to bed in an hour.
The past few days...well...nothing *thrilling* happened but I was kept oh so busy.
Wednesday I threw myself out of bed at 6:30am and got ready, walked the dog, and got to campus for breakfast. Scrambled eggs, tea, orange juice, muesli cereal, bran muffin...yum. Went to get my hair cut...I thought I liked it cuz she usually always does a good job but dammit, now that I think about it, it's too long still!! I wanted it SHORTER!!~ ahrhghgh and I couldn't afford that hair cut in the first place. I charged it to my card even though I did not want to, but I needed a haircut really badly. But dammit, it's not even what I wanted. So pissed. Anyway, went to Robarts library and from 10am to noon to do work for that prof (brought me computer and the files) while Rob studied ahead in his books. We went for lunch at that point..then I headed home at 12:30 and took the dog for a walk and got ready and went back to campus to work from 2-8pm. It was a bad workday. The first thing they told me when I walked in was that I screwed up a deposit order the other day...it wasnt' even me either, it was one of the girls that was *showing* me how to do it! but since it was on my cashier number, it was my fault. I just said..oh..and went up to where I was put that day. Great Hall. It was fairly quiet. But I was hungry and was worried about not having enough time to get any food because it was a 6 hour shift and I didn't know what my breaks were. Luckily, I got a 30 minute break but unluckily, it was at 4pm. My dining hall's dinner starts at 5pm. Ah well, I just had a bowl of cereal and tea and grabbed an apple and ran back to work. I left very tired and went home. I was going to go to the Athletic Centre but to hell with that. It was cold and windy and rainy. I went home. Didn't sleep very well, not sure why.
Got up again today at 6:30am. Same old. Took dog for walk and got ready for work and left with Rob for breakfast. My bad day begins. It's raining hard and it's cold. I don't have an umbrella and I don't have a windbreaker--I can't afford one right now. Anyway, I'm a bit wet by the time I get on the streetcar...I was in a bad mood for some reason. My haircut screw up, not having an umbrella, haha, etc...by the first stop I realize I had forgotten my t-card. I NEED that to swipe in for meals. I knew that if I got off and went home to get it...I'd never make it in time to have breakfast. I'd have to go straight to work. I wanted to cry. I was starving and I couldn't find my water bottle so I was dehydrated and I was wet from the rain and I was not in a good mood. I just got off the streetcar and told Rob to just go. I managed to get back home and when I got inside I practically cried for 5 minutes while I tried to find my t-card. hahah today just wasn't turning out to be my day. First day of school too! argh. I found it and miserably got on the streetcar when it came by (and it took its god damn time) and I made it to campus at 8:35am. I have to start work at 8:45am. Meaning..I have to be there in cash office at 8:40. Fuck it. I wasn't going to work without breakfast. I don't compromise myself for a corporation when it comes to that stuff. Plus I was having a bad day and I didn't need that. I ran inside and wolfed a bowl of cereal and an orange juice and ran to work. I was late almost 10 minutes. :( But I just said coldly, "I couldn't control that, sorry". I guess lots of people were late anyway cuz of the rainy day and whatnot. Anyway...worked in stationary today from 8:45-1pm. The line-ups were absolutely mad. They never ended and people were swarming into the bookstore in packs. It was tiring. I bought 4 notebooks for school and stumbled off from work to the dining hall and had lunch...some cannolli (??) pasta thing with vegetables and orange juice, melons and tea.
Walked slowly to class, my Prehistory of the Ancient Near East class, and sat with 2 friends from classes I've had. It was nice to be back! The class seems really good and there is no textbook because of the subject matter of the course-instead we will be using journal articles which is great because it will help me better my skills for using journals in my research. Talked with the prof for a moment and then I walked to the athletic centre to work out. I admit I was nervous...I had never used the AC before! It was a big building of confusingness. First I went to the change room which I did know...didn't get a towel....it confused me...got ready feeling odded out that I had to change my clothes out in the open..change rooms are WEIRD. I went upstairs and accidently ended up int he weight room. Tons of guys in there...I think girls just wait for the women only hours or something. I backed away slowly haha and made my way up some more stairs and found the sign for the field room..thing...that Salanth told me about. It was a huuuge room with a proper track and off to the sides tons of cardio machines and weight machines and in the centre was closed off -thingies for basketball courts. Weird. I went running. I didn't know how long I went for..didn't have my watch..I went by intuition and stopped after 10 laps and went downstairs. Checked the clock and it was 4:30...I guess I worked out long enough (I don't need to work out more than 30 minutes usually because I take the dog for so many walks...I get a lot of exercise) Anyway, went to get a towel and I went about figuring out how the shower thing worked. The AC change rooms are really nice and the shower areas are also really really nice. To make a short story that I usually turn long into a short one, everything went well. I put back on my normal clothes and wished I brought new ones...and I forgot me deoterant doh! luckily I'm a small girl and it ususally doesn't matter.
Went to meet Rob at the dining hall and he was there when I got there. I was on time. Had supper, some sort of steak cutlet with roasted potatoes and green beans, plus a small bowl of lucky charms Mmm and tea and an apple and went home.
Actually, I promised Rob i'd go minis shopping with him on Queen Street so I did that and then went home and did some stuff I had to do and walked the dog. Now I have to do work for that prof adn then go to bed and my day starts aaall ovver again. Fascinating eh? I had to miss the pubnite today ...I could have gone for like an hour at 7:30 but then I didn't know if anyone would still be there if it started at 4:30! that *always* seems to happen...that it breaks off early or moves elsewhere...grumble grumble.
I have Middle Egyptian tomorrow and NO bookstore work (praise jeebus!).
Zzzzzzz
Oh yeah, I saw Orlando Bloom on Queen Street. I'm pretty sure it was him!! but I could be wrong. Does anyone even know if he is down in TO yet? I mean it is the film festival and I'm sure he is one of the guests going.
Vhat-ever.
