The earthlink dsl kit still hasn't arrived yet, and my hands are starting shake. I can't live without an access to the Internet. No, I can't! I was so frantic...but I was suddenly put at ease when my roommate let me use her aol account once again. Then I felt the connection rush through my veins. My heart slowed down and I rested.
Tomorrow is my first day of class. Somehow I felt very...downtrodden. It's like I have destroyed so much this summer. Several people are suddenly gone from my life. Not that I miss them, but rather I regret the fact that I'll be going through the semester without much of a lasting set of friends. And unfortunately, sometimes the word friend has turned into that wicked f-word.
Yesterday I was all fretful because I had to attend my neighbor's daughter's wedding. It was all good, except the fact that I had to see my psuedo-enemy. Thomas Kuo. I never really enjoyed his company. When I was really young, Thomas and his other friends would chase my sister and me throughout the neighborhood. Yet when I look back...hmm...haven't you ever heard of those kids that would only bully you, because they like you? Hmm. Weird.
Still, I never liked Thomas. However, I endured the entire wedding without ever communicating with Thomas. His sister was lovely...although she seemed a bit too serious during the ceremony. The groom seemed to smile every second. He was more happier...than happy. He was very overjoyous.
My sister caught the bouquet. Well it was a made-up toss. Jenny, the bride, chose not to toss the bouquet because there weren't many female guests that were still unmarried. Only my sister and me...and this one other girl. So when my sis asked, Jenny just grabbed the bouquet and tossed it to my sister. yeah, go Doreen. :p
So unfair that she's younger than me.
I went to the Oakland Streetfest today. It was the same old...agh. I didn't want to feel greedy, so I didn't join any lines. I mean...after all, I don't get much from the fairs...except the feeling of instant gratification. YES! Becasue you spun the wheel, you'll get a clip that you'll never use! And how true is that.
And so I am back in my apartment. I somewhat regret not doing the activities that the residence halls planned for the freshmen. Anyway, now I am out (without the Internet)!
