When I recognize someone and I have more than 2 seconds to stop and realize it, I say "hi," to them. Some of my friends have recently dubbed me "creepy" for doing so. I have adamantly disagreed.
Ok, so one person I talked to today was a bouncer at Peabody's that I've seen there, and I don't really KNOW him, but hey, it's nice to be remembered, right? AND another was a girl that I sat near in the waiting room of the Doctor's Walk-in Clinic on Bruce B. Downs, but again, it's nice to be remembered.
After further analysis of my day thus far and what I've written here, I can come to the broad assumption that my friendliness could possibly, maybe be mistaken for the attitude of a most skillful creeper. I also caught myself sending two different texts to two different people I spied on campus that read "I C U." Could it be? Am I that creeper friend? Hopefully not, I think that I just thoroughly remember faces and stories about people. As of right now, there is a girl sitting across from me in the lobby that I had an Honors class with, one that is married and was highly annoying and thought that because she was married she had all of the answers even though she was younger than me. Because of this blog and my recent realization, I'm not going to say anything to her.
What is it with everyone getting married?
Why now, why right this minute?
I get the whole "when you know, you know" and the "but, Jamie, we're IN LOVE," But my whole things is: cool. be in love. and if you ARE in love, wait a few extra months to graduate so you're not uber stressed and trying to plan a honeymoon around your finals. PS- IT WON'T WORK. you won't get to have a good honeymoon if it's your senior year of college and you're getting married right before finals. you can't take any time off. you will fail. You waited the whole time you dated through high school and/or college, wait just a little longer. Is it the thought of a spring wedding that inspires you? everyone gets married in the spring. can you be a little different? everyone chooses light green or soft purple or whatever for their wedding in the springtime. It's getting old, and very boring. I don't know, I could be very very wrong about this, but it's how I feel. Maybe it's because I have to keep finding new roommates and it's a selfish hassle for me.
On another note, I'm really liking Iron Maiden right now. I always have, if you know me you know that I'm a rocker....but Iron Maiden...WOW! they have been blowing me away.

The First of Many
I've been thinking about this for quite some time. I know a lot of people that participate, and I'm finally thinking that there might be something to this crowd. I'm not sure what a "good blog" consists of, but all I can say is that my blogs will be...genuine?
It is late. It's not the kind of late that encompasses a "late night snack" or "late night movie," it's the "I'm sick and have too much on my mind to sleep so I created this blog" kind of late. I have a GIANT project due soon; one that I just figured out what the topic should be. I also have a test Monday in a German class that covered far too much material while I was out sick, thus leaving me behind. I MUST get my oil changed. I'm pretty sure that driving an extra 1,300 miles after the MAINTENANCE REQUIRED light came on was a bad idea. In order to get my oil changed, I have to clean out my car. It's really embarrassing when you take your car to the dealership or auto shop and it's a mess. Also, and nothing against mechanics, I feel like if there's a bunch of stuff in my car, something will get stolen and I won't realize it's gone until days later when I'm sifting through the clutter. Speaking of cleaning, my room is a disaster, which is what I have been using as an excuse to not study. Did I mention I was sick?
Work isn't going so well, which means I have to scrounge together enough money for rent again. When your sick all of the time and have to call out of work it doesn't really make things easier. The bad thing about the hospitality industry is that you have to depend on the kindness of others to make your money (TIPS!), and lately----people generally SUCK, at least when they come in to eat or drink.
With that, and I know---this is weak for a first blog (should I be telling you about myself?)---I'm going to take some medicine and go to bed in hopes of not being worthless tomorrow. Maybe I'll be able to write something better and less concise once I'm well. Let's hope so.
