Randomness

Trash and such
I am not going to lie. There needs to be an easier way to take the trash out from the 7th floor of the Lee building. My roommate and I end up letting the trash pile up till we have 4 trash bags worth of trash piled y our door before we take it out because it is annoying to have to go down stairs and walk to the dumpster and throw your trash out every weekend. So chip and I usually let the trash go for a while until it gets ridiculous. Like tonight, its 3 bags stuffed full. I think they should have some kind of trash shoot that you could swipe your card on to open or unlock and then throw your trash in and it would fall to the dumpster. That would be so much easier! I also think it would be nice if the new elevators in this building would work. The new elevators have basically been messed up since they were installed. The other day while I was waiting for the one working elevator to come down, I asked the maintenance man working on the elevator what has been wrong with them and why they break down so much. The man replied with “Well they left some pieces off when they installed them and so now we are having to put those pieces on now.” I just agreed with the man, but once I got into the elevator it really hit me. We have been riding these elevators without all the required pieces?! Are you serious?! Hell, the other day I had to walk up 8 flights of stairs after going to schiffert. They had shut both down for at least an hour. I guess it is not that big of a deal if u live on the lower floors, but living on the top floor of lee sucks when the elevators are broken. Something I do like about living on the 7th floor is the view. Sunsets and sun rises are amazing to watch from my window, and yes I am sorry to say I have watch both during the week. I have had 3 nights where I don’t sleep at all, but otherwise I have been getting a good amount of sleep. Anyway, the sunrises and sunset are really cool looking especially since I can see lane stadium and castle which tend to reflect the sun off them. It is quite a site. If I could I would attach a picture, but sadly I don’t have one yet. Maybe in a later blog I will attach it.

South Park
So a tradition some guys on my hall and I have started is that for the new season of South Park, we are watching it in my room every Wednesday night as a huge group. I think we have about 8 people or so in my room; Sometimes more. This has grown from like 3 of us to people from slusher and vawter coming over to watch with us. It is a lot of fun and its gives us all one night to all hang out and see each other. It is also a lot of ours busiest days and watching south park and all laughing together is a good way to relax after the stress filled day. I really like the group of guys I ended up living with. Everyone seems really cool and chill and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. And on top of that I met Jessie and Crystle, who always come over and chill with all the guys here too and it’s a blast.

Homesickness
So I don’t know why but I have become extremely homesick in the past 2 weeks. I want to go home and get to see my whole family as soon as possible. I want to drive my car. I want to see my dogs. And I want to see all my friends who I haven’t seen in forever. I never knew I would be so homesick and wanting to go home but I have just had this feeling of not wanting to work and just wanting to go chill. Relax some and see my family. I really need that right now because I have been quite stressed lately.

Friends
For some reason I have a ton of friends who talk to me like crazy, ask for advice, and tell me I am amazing for always being there for them, but then they stop talking to me. They stop contacting me and act like nothing is weird. Then when I try to contact them saying how I haven’t heard from them in forever and all they say is how “the phone works both ways”. I have to say that is a phrase that bugs me the most. I know a phones works both ways and that I can contact you, but honestly you never tried to contact me. I don’t really know what I am complaining about right now because this is kind of random and I am up late so I am just starting to talk randomly. This was just some random thing that came to mind. It kind of bugs me too because they get mad at me for little stupid things like that, but when I get upset about stupid little things I am over reacting. I don’t get it. I guess that’s why I like the guys who I am living near this year because they are all really chill about stuff and never seem to get flustered about stuff. I think this is where I was meant to be placed because it has helped me to not worry so much about stuff in life and to just move on and life how I want to life. Not let others affect me to much in how I act in life. I think this is enough thinking for the night. Hope u enjoyed the few random things you read about and that I ranted about. Thanks for reading! :p I knows it is just because you have too, but I figured I would still thank you!

  1. that sucks about the trash. That really sucks. I don't have that problem, but there was a fire drill in west a.j. today, and i was on the 7th floor, and it sucked going up and down those stupid stairs.

    I'm sorry your homesick! Only 2 more weeks then thanksgiving!! yay.

    I absolutely hate that saying too. Some people do get busy though, but they shouldn't say that sentence haha. It sucks.

  2. Ok so the idea about the trash shoot is very good! I feel like that would keep Lee from smelling so bad sometimes! and the whole homesick things comes and goes. plus we are getting ready to have a week off!

  3. haha its funny about the trash. I live on the first floor of lee and it is pretty much just as annoying and that scares the crap out of me about the missing pieces! I knew those elevators were sketchy.

    A bunch of people in my hall all get together for a bunch of shows during the week too. It is such a stress reliever to get away from the work.

    Don't worry about the homesickness, we only have two weeks left and they will fly!
