OK, so I know it's been forever since I updated, but I'm so lazy since I've been going to school. I think I'm just going to update once a week or something, and put up a bunch of posts about what's happening in my life. But how are you, Joanna, because it's been forever since I heard from you!
Anyway, on my first day back at school, I wrote you a letter. I'm going to post it here so you don't have to wait for it to arrive in the mail. Just as well; I wrote it on totally boring looseleaf and I have nothing to decorate it with anyway.

Dear Joanna;
I am writing this to you while in class, so excuse the boring paper. I'm having a shit first day back in school and I thought you'd want to hear since it's hilarious if it's not happening to you.
So first, let me tell you that I have bad luck on first days all the time.
The first problem was my mom- I set my alarm for 8:55 and then she woke me up at 6:10 in the freaking morning because she thought I had an early class. I couldn't get back to sleep- I was so pissed . It took an hour and I finally fell asleep. Then at 8:42 my mom wakes me up again. I just gave up and got up because those last few minutes were not worth it.
Later, I'm really early to class so I purposely miss my bus and buy lunch. I figure I'll catch the nest bus. What the hell the bus doesn't appear for half an hour! I'm standing in the shade, shivering, and no bus appears. This is probably my fault for wanting to buy food but that kind of punishment is way harsh. I hate waiting- It makes me want to stamp my feet and you know, punch someone. Sorry, I must sound like a violent rageaholic. It's just that when I get frustrated, I need to let it out.... with violence. Haha
Then I was at the administrative office and the system was down. What the hell, why are these systems always down? Those people are so unhelpful, they might as well look pretty, you know? God, what if I end up working one of those jobs?
And the last dumb story for today is my fault- I was looking in this building for room 258... and I was so confused because the rooms went from 201 to 212 and that was it. I walked around the building, and down the same hallway three freaking times. And I even walked out the back entrance, where the snow wasn't shoveled and walked through several inches of snow, back to the front entrance. Finally I check my schedule again and realize the class is in room 209. Like, duh. 258 is for another class.
This was seriously such a dumb moment- I don't know if I was just nervous or dumb. I need to go back to school just to make my brain work again.
Anyway, missing you lots. Only people I actualyl talked to today were unhelpful administrative people. I'm so exhausted, and listening to this professor talk in this loud, high, nasal voice that is giving me a headache.
I really hope this cheered you up (feel free to laugh at the pain I cause myself) because of course I want you to be happy. Also, hope you're not working too hard. Vacation's coming soon in April and I'm not going to Belize, so we have to go shopping again! I'd like to avoid Queens Center (because of the Aerosoles incident) so let's just go have lunch.
Love you ~Wendy
Dear Wendy,
ReplyDeleteOh dear :( I'm sorry to hear you've had such an awful first day. And I feel bad for laughing! You remind me so much of Mia from Princess Diaries, only less whiny and annoying, and a whole lot angrier. haha.
You should seriously write a book, like her, about your life. No matter how mundane and slow a day could be, misfortune always appears to add some drama into your life. It's a good comical relief for readers like me, hehe.
You should wake up early in the morning to get all glammed up! Pshhh, I know you. Don't be lazy! It's fun and the more practice you get, the easier and faster you'll be able to apply it. And soon, your obsession with makeup will just continue to increase and you'll just end up wasting more money on unnecessary cosmetics! Welcome to my life!
Oh man, I really miss you girl. I already need a break right now. School is horrible. I really don't like Stockton at all. The people here are horrible and it's hard to make friends here so I feel really lonely most of the times. I wish I had a girl friend here who I can go shopping with and talk about makeup and stuff. :(
My next break is in March. I'm really hoping I can come to NY and see you, but I'm almost certain I'll be forced to work. And I don't mind just eating lunch! Shopping is getting a little too much for me now. I feel totally out of the loop since I haven't been shopping/window shopping weekly to keep up to date with all the current trends and such. How sad.
Well besides the horrible first day, what else has been going on in your life? Have you been in Forest Hills lately? Or talked to anyone from FHHS?
And I've been wondering how your relationship with your sister is now. Are you still fighting? I really hope not. Even if it's just so much easier to ignore her and cut her out of your life, it will just bring extra unnecessary pain in your life! I'm not saying to be all close and loving and all (since I know you probably cringed at that lol), but to just maintain a neutral relationship with her so your family won't give you beef about it and you won't be yelled at!
Keep me updated! Miss you!
Love,
Joanna
Dear Joanna;
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you said that I sound like Mia. Now I really have to hold in all my whining. I do whine a lot, though.
Haha, I am already obsessed with wasting my money on cosmetics I don't need! It's a crazy life; and the stuff just keeps piling up. But god, I just love collecting, and there's always more stuff to buy...
Aw, I miss you too. I can't believe the people at your school are so unfriendly! And yes, shopping alone isn't much fun at all. :( You're my only makeup shopping buddy, you know that?
Yes, definitely. Lunch. We will put on our highest heels, and sit down in some gritty restaurant to stuff ourselves with fries!
Nothing else is going on in my life... And my day wasn't that bad, I just felt dramatic. :)
I've seen about three people from forest hills... We said hi, but that was it. Haha. I'm glad; it's nice to start over. I wish I had someone to hang out with on break though. Do you have those huge hour long breaks with nothing to do? I try to read some good books to pass the time.
I'm not exactly talking to my sister, but we're not publicly fighting anymore either. And I know it's important to let go of grudges, but I'm keeping this one until she grows up. We are neutral now, I guess. No one's yelling at me about it, but I don't want to go to her and make peace either. I can't believe that she acts like I'm beneath dirt. That drives me insane.
