Right?
……..
Okay. Anyway.
The day went on as usual, wake up late, panic, mandi kerbau, jump in the car, realize I forgot to take my bag, panic, turn around, run back in the house to collect bag, jump back in the car.
En route, when I almost made it to college, I realized my ID tag wasn’t on me.
I was like……oh fock.
See, at The One, your student ID is like your golden ticket to all your classes. They have this policy where you’re supposed to carry it with you at all times when you’re on campus. I guess it really isn’t essential but it’s my first day, right, so naturally I’m a little paranoid.
So there I go, emptying the entire contents of my bag, and its not in there. And I’m literally like….
ZOMGahhhh
But we cant turn back cause if we did I would be late for class, so I told my aunt that everything was cool, despite the fact I was having a mini heart attack in the back seat.
So I suck it up, walk to my block and guess what?
The gate was open like they were the Pearly Gates and I was the pope.
Well, they were open cause they were doing some renovation on the 2nd floor, but whatever, right? I was stoked, stoked like a fat kid in a valley of ice cream.
So I prance my ass up to my floor, scaring some of the construction workers along the way with what I can only imagine to be a really really creepy grin plastered on my face, only to realize I can’t get into the actual door to the classrooms without the stupid tag.
Scheizer.
So I have wait out in the hallway till this bunch of kids exit and I sneak my way in.
And voila! I was off to my first official class.
I guess it wasn’t bad, my English lecturer seems nice, and at least she’s not a boring hypocrite like some of the others I’ve had. Although she kept calling me Christine instead of Kim. Which is weird because my mom woulda called me Christine if she hadn’t changed her mind at the last minute.
Christine…Christine. Can you imagine me as a Christine? I would be Chris instead of Kim. So weird. I think Christine’s too high class for me. It always reminds me of that Stephen King movie where the car has a life of its own and goes around killing people. You know that movie? It’s not bad. Anyway, I digress.
My classmates seem okay. It was quiet, but I mean it’s the first day, anyway. It’s kind of bizarre knowing that these are the people who I will be breathing the same air with for 25 hours a week for the next 4 years.
For most of the class I was really hyper because I figure that there was still adrenaline in my veins from before. I think everybody thought I was like the really hyper/friendly type because I still had that stupid smile on my face for the whole time. I couldn’t help it. My cheek muscles were in overdrive. I think I creeped a few of them out, too. Oh well.
The next 3 or so hours went by surprisingly quickly. Then it was off to Pyramid to kill some time before I got a ride home.
And that’s pretty much it. Oh, and after that, I went home and helped to cook dinner and cut onions till I cried. I don’t know why that’s interesting, but I think it’s worth mentioning. Haha.
So that was Tuesday, and I get today off, which is awesome. In fact my whole schedule is awesome. Other that the fact I have class on Saturdays, it’s pretty sweet. 4-day-week, most half day, and more importantly, no morning classes. Huzzah~
So here I am, idling my day off away in front of the computer because my Astro is not working (they better fix it before American Idol finals tonight man…). Its kind off dull really. Here’s what I watched so far. If you are as bored as I am, you will think he's funny. Annoying, yes, but strangely entertaining.:

Besides that, I’m kind of bummed I didn’t get to hang out with y’all last Saturday on account of my orientation. I missed Jia Huey’s piercing session! Oh, and Iron Man! What Happens in Vegas!
Who wants to go watch with me again? I belanja popcorn.
P.S. You know what? I found my student ID! Turns out it was in my bag all along, in one of the zipped up compartments... Haha...
