There are days when I'm positively convinced that not going to public school was one of the best things that ever happened to me. Tonight was one of those nights.
No, dear highschooler, I'm not stupid enough to let you flirt with me for five minutes, watch as you go flirt with five other girls, and let you come back again thinking it's okay. You're ridiculous if you think that just because I get lower grades than some people, that I'm stupid enough to let you do that. Because unlike you, I'm willing to wait for someone who's worth it and thinks that I'm worth all his time.
Not one fifth of it.
But since we're on the subject, let me thank you for making it that much easier for me to let you go.

Note to self:
It probably isn't smart to pick up the wrong stack of books when you're on the way out the door and not remember you have the wrong stack of books until you get to school. And it probably isn't good to realize that you're stuck at school with no way of getting said books because you have no car, and then realize something else. You have the teacher from hell today, who, if you tell you forgot your books on accident because you thought it was Tuesday and not Monday, will promptly kick you out of his class--and generally humiliate you because of your stupidity.
Please, don't ever do this to me again, self. It's not good for our mental health and gives us a headache because of the stress.
Love, Self

College, Computers, and Chaos
It's been one of those weeks...
First I managed to get my eensie little laptop stolen when I ran into our college bookstore to grab a drawing board--not to mention my headhpones--and that was just lovely. Well, part of it was, anyways. No, really! I met a wonderful receptionist in the security office. She was so sweet and sympathetic and just all-around lovely. Unfortunately for me, however, her niceness and my hour-long sulking session still wasn't enough to make my little bugger come back to me. SO. I decided to come up with a list of pros and cons for losing one's computer.
Pros:
- You lose a lot of distraction time when you don't have a laptop to carry around with you wherever you go.
- Your thousand-pound backpack is much, much lighter without a computer (no, I don't care how small it was. My back still felt it.)
- You don't have to worry about it getting stolen after it's been stolen!
- It's really nice to realize that your brandie new bible hasn't been lost along with said computer. (Long story, that one...)
- Much more space in your backpack for important stuff, like, you know, textbooks...
Cons:
- Well... Your computer is gone.
- Getting over the fact that all of the stuff you've written since you got said new computer--not to mention my notes from all my classes--is difficult. And painful.
- It's not cheap to get a new laptop to replace your old one
- It's much harder to do homework on the go when you don't have something electronic to carry around with you.
- No portable pandora... (I've been feeling this one the past few days. A lot.)
There were several other things that went wrong this week as well as me losing my computer. Some were small, some were big, and all of them would have been easy to deal with if they hadn't all happened at once. As always, though, bad things come in bunches, and I ended up tired and stressed--not a good thing when you're a college student with oodles of homework.
But overall, I can't complain. (So I'll rant instead...) God helped me get over myself once again, and I can't help but say how good he is. Cuz not matter how many computers you have stolen from you in a week or how tired or stressed you become, he's still there for you, every step of the day. And I know that I'm going to sound like a broken record, but, you know, it's kind of comforting to know that he's got everything under control.
(If, for any reason, however, any of you ever get your computer stolen, I would be glad to speak with you. Trust me when I say I know how it feels. Cuz I do!~)
