2k10 + work + school = Davis in a nutshell

It's been some time since I've blogged. I'm sorry if that upsets my 3 - maybe 4 - readers. I've been really busy w/ school. I anticipated more work than ohlone but not this much more. It's like no matter how much I study, I'm constantly behind. Damn you quarter system!

I thought that moving out here and being on my own would be this amazing experience. As of now, it's pretty much the same thing + different people + a lot more work + a lot suckier. "Same shit, different day" as the saying goes. If I'm not at school, I'm at work. And when I do have a day off I have to catch up on my reading. I know I'm voicing the same sentiment as many other college students but it just...sucks. I've always thought of myself as someone who was very appreciative of my parents and what they did for me but since i've been out here, I'm really appreciative. I use to come home to pre-paid groceries and home cooked meals. Now I come back to the apartment for top ramen, canned foods, and pb&j sandwiches. It's a minor setback to say the least. I even miss steven. I didn't think I would but I do.

I miss Jinjer

I miss Billy

I miss Ammo

I miss Joomee

Jinjer and I text each other a lot. Albeit, the responses may take 10 minutes, maybe 10 hours. It sucks. We went from hanging out maybe twice a week to not seeing each other at all. As for billy, I can't just call him up and be like "aye i'm coming over". Ammo and I have probably talked once since I moved? He's working hard in pursuit of a medical career so I understand. I'll see him soon though. And joomee? I can hear her from here but its not the same as seeing her.

For now, life in Davis is very routine and mundane. I start my day w/ school and end my days reading. After reading I do treat myself to some good ol youtube before I head to bed. I usually watch some freestyle battles (youtube dumbfoudead or jonny storm) or watch the jamie foxx show. Classic!

*Oh and i wanna say thanks to Maureen . She was my first visiter! She was heading back to tahoe and made a pit-stop in Davis. I haven't seen her in a year and seeing a familiar face was much needed. We enjoyed a strawberry banana crepe and proceeded to class shortly after.

I know I have a my pessimistic goggles on but I feel like what I had a home is so much better then what I have here. I've met some pretty cool people and gone to a few parties here but I currently view Davis as just a temporary thing. I have that mindset of "I'm here to do my business, graduate, then get out". It's only week 2 so there is still plenty of room and time for improvement. I hope to get a prescription for some optimistic glasses soon.

Sorry this blog was kind of all over the place. Its really late and I am beat.
