Perfect. *sigh*
To whoever's running the show right now, thanks for another great day.
I picked up my school ID. I am officially a Rutgers student. Haha. The line for it was two miles long, I swear. I stood in that stupid line for forty-five minutes. Haha. But it was worth it. I can go to the lib now (Wi-Fi... Haha.), I can go to gym now, I can basically do whatever students are allowed to do. Yey.
Honors English rocked too. First day: ESSAY. It was fun. As Professor Benson had put it,
This isn't just a composition course, otherwise we would have put you with the rest of the students. No. This is a critical thinking, critical reading and critical writing course.Freshman Colloquium was... different. Professor Veysey was, er, unconventional. But having an unconventional teacher for a social control and deviance class kinda makes sense, doesn't it? Oh, and she's gay. Yeheeey. :)
That's it for now. Loads of homework.
Ooh, before I forget. Met my first Filipino friend outside of my Red Ribbon circle. Her name's Camille. She's in my Freshman Colloquium class. She mentioned something about the Philippines, so I knew she's Filipino then I came up to her and asked her after class. Her first question:
Nagta-Tagalog ka? Sagot ko:
Oo naman. Sagot niya:
Magaling!Labels: stories

Randoms things about me
I'm Kitten :)
I get a year older every 17th of August. I am a Leo, and I carry all traits associated with that zodiac.
Right now, I'm twenty years old and I'm loving it. They say we're only as young as we feel. I feel like I'm five.
I would never leave the house without my Zen and my E2. The latter connects me to the world; the former takes me away from it.
If I were to choose a word to describe my life, that word would be
crazy.
I am in love with the stars. I am in love with the rain.
I am a Rutgers University student, and I want to graduate with an English degree. An English-Psych double major would be nice. An English-TCert would be even better.
I want to be a teacher. I want to be writer. I want to be both.
I thrive on indie and emo. Mae, The Spill Canvas, Copeland and Daphne Loves Derby - these are the guys that I listen to. I listen to other bands here and there, but mostly those are the bands I follow. That being said, I'm a mainstream moron.
There's no feeling more lovely than being carried away. People don't usually think of me as somebody spontaneous, but I like being swept away as much as the next girl.
I fall in love easily, but it is really hard for me to fall out. Really hard.
I am very fragile.
I am tolerant of almost everything except one thing: intolerance.
I am an extensive reader. I thirst only for meaning, nothing else.
I love my friends <3
I am extremely spiritual but not religious.
Things I want to do in my life time
Get a job.- Save up enough money to go back home -
wherever that is if I ever had one before I'm 40.
- Write a book.
- Sing for a Disney movie.
- Buy a house on top of a hill.
- Go bunjee jumping.
Travel halfway around the world.- See Italy.
Find the one person who makes my heart beat faster and slower at the same time.Draw and paint.Learn how to play Sudoku.- Volunteer for American/Philippine Red Cross or UNHCR.
Quit smoking.
