I’m only days away from my first day of school and my stomach just did a little flip flop just thinking of it. My past week has been full of enjoying my last few days of sleeping in and getting everything sorted out for school.

I need to bring the school my first aid certificate, police record check, and immunization sheet, yet I am unsure of where specifically in the school I need to bring them. I’ve decided that I want to hand them in before school starts, so that way I actually have a vague idea of what my school looks like on the inside, and so I have less to stress out about.

Speaking of stress, my mother has been driving me crazy lately. I am under the impression that she is sad that “her little baby” is all grown up and about to go to college, so she’s doing everything humanly possible to stay needed and involved with my life. Unfortunately it’s getting ridiculous. I tell her I am going to take a shower and she reminds me that I need a towel. I go check the mailbox for her and she tells me which key to use to unlock it. All of those things I clearly know. Also I ask her a simple question and it turns into some sort of insult against me, for example:

Me: “Mom, do you have any sort of ideas as to what I need for back to school, clothes wise?”

Mom: “I think you need jeans that will actually cover your ass, and underwear you can wear under a white uniform in case you have to wear one. You need more conservative clothing.”

I suppose that’s what I get for asking.

I got my schedule for my first semester a few days ago, there is one class not put into the schedule because it says the information isn’t available on it yet; but as it is so far I only have classes on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. On Monday’s I’m not done until 6:00pm, however all of my classes begin at 10:00am. Although that sounds like a sleep in everyday, considering I’m going to have to take public transit, I still have to get up at seven so I have time to get ready and get there on time.

I decided to do my Wii Fit Body test today, like you’re suppose to do everyday. Unfortunately my Wii wouldn’t turn on. It was plugged in, but no light was shining from the power button. I freaked out. I switched outlets, unplugged everything, plugged it all back in, nothing fixed it. I was so angry that I blew all that money on a Wii and then it just stops working. I spent thirty frustrating minutes doing everything I could imagine to fix it. Until I curled up on the floor into a crying mess. I hit my Wii controller by accident.

You know what fixed it?

Turning it on with my controller.

Then I come online to my blog to write about my frustrating Wii-sperience… and my layout is all shifted it funny directions, no longer being contained in its nice little boxed in self. I go through the code, read the CSS and index file, I see nothing particularly wrong with it. So I decided to take a breath, forget about it for now. If it doesn’t fix itself, (which it most likely wont, code usually doesn’t just magically do that) I’ll fix it later. As for now, I am going to read through the code once more, and hope for the best.

Edit: I decided just to put a theme up until I make my own. Hopefully I’ll have it done soon.

A customer orders a soup deal for “here”, I give her everything, including a spoon.

Customer: “Can I have a smaller spoon please?”
Eva: “Oh, sure, of course!”

I take the customers spoon, and replace it with a slightly smaller spoon.

Customer: “I said a smaller spoon, not bigger!”

I stare at her aghast.

Eva: “Um. Okay.” (At this point I was already frustrated.) Under my breath I said, “It is.”

I then hand her a microscopic baby spoon. She stared at it, and wandered off without a thanks.

The next customer laughed from witnessing what had just taken place. I tell the customer obviously I can not tell the difference between sizes of spoons.

My supervisor who was standing beside me laughed and said, “We’ll have to install some charts in the store so you can tell the difference.”

My first day of College is September second, and I still have yet to book myself for any sort of tour or campus transition/greeting day sort of thing. Although I am interested in seeing my school and getting to know the inside of it. The thing is, I just haven’t had time and I don’t want to go alone. I know, the second reason is a lame reason, but I can’t help that I feel that way.

I’m not going to lie, I am nervous about school. I’m worried about if I’ll be good enough, if I’ll understand it all. If I can handle the stress of becoming a nurse, and then being a nurse.

I’m hoping they’ll have more tour days in August, when it’s closer to school and I will have more free time. Knowing my way around the school a little bit might alleviate some of my worry about it all. If they don’t have more tour days, then I hope I’ll be fine. I don’t see why I wouldn’t be. It’s not like the “big bad school” is going to harm me for getting lost.
