First college entry!

Thursday, January 25, 2007 at 9:25 pm (Happenings in KD's life)

  • I’m listening to: Old-school Destiny’s Child
  • Current mood: Tiiiired
  • Important dates: Saturday, January 27, I get to sleep in!

Well, hi! I know, I know, I’ve broken the pattern of updating on Wednesdays. I just didn’t feel like updating yesterday because I was exhausted.

Anyway, I’m in college now! It’s been a little overwhelming adjusting to this new lifestyle, but I’m beginning to get used to it. I still have some issues with getting lost on the campus, but that’s OK. I’m learning!

I really like my schedule, though! Taking Spanish and French at the same time is really fun! I have Spanish at 9 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and French at noon on every day except Friday. It’s taken me a while to switch from one language to another, but I’m getting better.

Anyway, I’m still really tired, but I thought I’d update you guys on my new college life! I’ll write more soon! Parting thought: MELISSA! HOW DARE YOU BATHE YOURSELF!!! (Screamed by someone in my dorm. I have no idea why)

Another pattern

Wednesday, January 17, 2007 at 10:50 am (General ramblings)

  • I’m listening to: Mandy Moore
  • Current mood: Refreshed from a good sleep
  • Important dates: Monday the 15th, apart from being Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, was my daddy’s birthday!

Hello! Now I seem to be developing a pattern of updating only on Wednesdays, huh?

Anyway, I’ve graduated from SISTA and am spending a week at home before I go to college. Hopefully I’ll be able to get something arranged with Mary today, since I haven’t seen her in ages.

Hmmmm, what else can I write about? Oh, my commencement meal went very well! Everyone liked my food, and it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

I watched American Idol last night, and it was great! If I do succeed in buying a reasonably-priced TV for my dorm room, I’m going to watch it all the way through! Oh, and did I tell you that there’s a toll-free number I can call that gives me TV listings?! I personally think that’s the best thing that happened since Dreamgirls!

Well, I suppose that’s all for now. Keep those pointless comments coming, Kaitlin! And whoever else! Parting thought: LOOK AT ME, MISTA, I’M A STAR!!! (Yeah, another quote from Dreamgirls)

I’m developing a biweekly pattern…

Wednesday, January 10, 2007 at 7:55 pm (Happenings in KD's life)

  • I’m listening to: Atomic Kitten
  • Current mood: Tired
  • Important dates: Friday, January 12, is my graduation!

What do you know? It’s been 2 weeks again! Oops…

Well, dear readers, I am graduating from SISTA on Friday. *Tear* I shall miss all my friends a lot. I’m sure I’ll make new friends in college, but I have a feeling they won’t be quite as interested in discussing the BrailleNote Vs. Pacmate debate.

Well, let’s see. I had a whole list of things that happened since I last wrote, but I’ve forgotten some of them. Except this one: KD FINALLY SAW DREAMGIRLS!!!! I don’t think I need to give my opinion on it, but I will anyway. AWESOME MOVIE!!! I did not know Jennifer Hudson could act as well as sing, and I didn’t know Eddie Murphy could sing as well as act! And BeyoncĂ© was awesome, of course. I can honestly say that “Listen,” the song she sings toward the end, is one of the best songs I have ever heard.

Oh, another thing that happened? I had to call the police the night before last! The people upstairs were blasting some kind of megabass stereo at like midnight again, and I. Had. Had. Enough! I wanted to sleep! It worked, too! The silence was golden and wonderful.

Oh! And another thing: I survived my final Drop! I did miss one bus and had to wait for another in the slightly cold weather, and I did run across some dead-end streets that caused me to have to take several detours, but I still got back alive! Tomorrow is when I cook a big meal for 10 people, which should be fun. I made the dessert today. It’s a pistachio cake, and the batter was so sticky that when I took the mixer out of the bowl, the dough kind of stuck to the beaters in one sticky glob. It tastes quite good, however.

I’m slightly worried about the fate of my shop project, though. Mike has been sick all this week, and I still have a few things to do with it before it’s done. Oh well, I can always come back for a couple hours!

Anyway, I suppose I should gather all my stuff together into something that resembles an organized manner, as I’ll be moving out soon. I’ll try to write again before I start college on the 22nd! Parting thought: EVEN AN AMATEUR LIKE FRICKIN MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. HAS HIS OWN ALBUM! AND HE CAN’T EVEN SING!!! (Spoken by Effie White, the character played by Jennifer Hudson in Dreamgirls)
