Okay, so as most of you know, my life has been... eh... less than good for the past week or so. Well, there's one thing that I've noticed since the beginning of the school year. People seem to be super friendly around campus. I even asked my roommate if she's noticed it, and she said that she's been seeing that too. So it's not just me. I'm not crazy... yet. I just don't understand it. Random people are being super duper nice and friendly. They'll say hey and ask how i'm doing. Everyone seems to actually try to strike up conversations about anything and everything. Also, people I rarely ever talked to last year are coming and eating with me. I've met a ton of new people that are really nice. It's just completely opposite to everything else that's been happening! so strange!

Yeah... I guess God was like... well, imma send something nice along her way. maybe that'll cheer her up. haha. well, it has made me smile quite a few times

Random story time! I was at the student center and had to go to the bathroom. I walked in the stall and this huge cockroach crawled out from under one of the other stalls. I started stomping my foot to scare it off, but the stupid thing ran towards my foot! Needless to say, i was kinda freaking out... i got out of there as soon as possible haha. Then i warned my roommate about it so she wouldn't go in that same bathroom... it was... gross...

okay, okay, okay... i have another epic granny quote... Uh.... imma have to explain this one too haha xD
Granny: "I practice safe sex!"
haha, okay, my brother was the one that heard this actually. he was about to walk downstairs and heard my granny talking to my mom, and this was the only thing he heard. she was actually talking about a question a doctor asked her haha.

On Sunday I had an epic adventure at a friends house. Okay, well, it wasn't really an adventure.... actually, yeah, adventures are fun, so imma claim it to be an adventure. Anyway, this friend and his wife just had a baby girl a few weeks ago. They live with another couple who just had twin girls about two weeks, give or take, before their baby. Well, I went over their with another friend of mine who goes there a lot just to hang out. I'm not really what i'm saying actually. uh.... well, i had a lot of fun. and babies (otherwise known as hoomen larva) are fun and cute and i def wanna hold one at some point. I just get scared when i'm around babies. I'm afraid imma break them or something haha. but yeah, i wanna go back soon cause i enjoyed hanging with my friends and meeting new people and talking about Biblical/religious topics with a largely historical viewpoint. i love ancient history, so i'm game with that kind of stuff. i just don't talk much... eventually i will though ...maybe >.>

Everyone seems to be getting sick already. It's just now September! what's with that? kinda scare i'm next haha. at least i have Monday off for labor day! yay!

oh, that reminds me... my birthday is coming up soon! will officially be leaving teenagehood! kinda sad but exciting!

I haven't gotten anything from any agents yet... By around the 17th i should have heard from the guy that wanted the entire manuscript... hope he likes it and wants to represent me!

I was really on my game in jujitsu tonight! it was awesome! i was remembering things, preforming things well, and I was happy! I got to work with good friends of mine, so it was a good night overall! unfortunately, one of my classes might interfere with Thursday nights for me... I'm going to try to get out of it as much as I can since i'm testing for black sash. I was able to get out of it last thursday... hope she'll understand...

Well, i don't have much else to say... how is everyone else doing? busy, i'm sure aren't we all? haha but really, how are you guys?

God bless!
