yeah, same. I just took a shower, a hot one :). I'm supposed to be getting ready to go to this boys house, but I dont really feel like it so i'm stalling.

boys.. they just expect things sometimes, and I don't want to be put into a position I dont want to be put in. I'm going with my friend and they'll be other people there.. but I think we're the only girls going.

yea.. i hate situations like those, because I dont know how to say no to people. I feel bad. I know thats kind of pathetic, but its true.

yea, your right. I think I'll be alright tonight. I think another one of my friends is coming and she always keeps me from doing bad things, I love her for that..shes like my mother haha.

okay now i really have to get ready..im supposed to be there at 8, which isnt happening right now. thanks deb :).

Ahh, I'm all settled in at my dorm, still in ultra-giddy mode after seeing RENT with my mom this afternoon (Will Chase was absolutely amazing, Matt Caplan was a lot less annoying than when I saw RENT in October, and Kenna Ramsey's sassy diva neck-roll at the beginning of Tango Maureen is still cracking me up).

Heh at all of this talk about showers. At home, I'm always the one who uses up all of the hot water, much to the dismay of whoever gets stuck taking a shower right after me. At my dorm, there's more than enough hot water to go around, but the water pressure is so pathetically bad I might as well be in a birdbath (same thing pretty much any time I've ever gone on vacation - after a few days, I'm practically looking forward to going home to my nice water-blasting shower). I think that when I get an apartment of my own, I'll insist on taking a shower there before I sign anything just to make sure I can get enough heat and water pressure - it's that important to me.

Me? Nothing, I'm already in my pajamas! I've got some stuff I need to take care of: finalizing my class schedule, listing my textbooks online (and hoping someone will buy them!), etc. All kinds of fun! The weather is icky anyway, so I wouldn't want to go out. I think I'm going to order Chinese food, though. That's always a pick-me-up.

Why wouldn't they take them back? Did you chew the pages, Allie?

---

Nooo, I did not! My courses were all full year courses, and apparently you can only return them after the course has finished. I was like, "But I'm not going back! I could really use the cash right now." But nope, I have to wait until April. A few of the novels, they would take back, but would only give $2 each for. No thanks, I can get more selling them on my own!

I've bought (namely Angels in America for 12 bucks ) and sold a few through the online network thing, so I'm going to just put them all up there. It's so tedious, though, because they want the ISBN number and all the info - each book entered individually, of course.

It reminds me of the worst part of my summer job. We sat there for hours, entering Library of Congress numbers into the database for the genealogy centre. *snoozes*

Allie, that stinks that they won't let you sell back the books until April.

I could probably get a lot more money for my books if I sold them directly to people taking those classes the following semester, but it's just not worth the time and effort it would take to find buyers, so I just bring everything to the bookstore and hope to get back a third of the original cost.

Aaagh, data entry. That was a big part of my summer job, and not one I particularly enjoyed (especially because the supervisor would yell at me every time something was entered incorrectly and accuse me of not paying enough attention). It was better than filing, though.
