Today was the first day that I have spent almost completely on my own class and lunch-wise, and it was so inwardly fulfilling for me, and I'm so happy right now. Even the absence of my cute guy from yesterday can't bring down my intense feeling of complete independence at this point. And besides, I'm sure I'll see him again tomorrow.
Right now the only thing standing in my way between now and a smooth quarter is buying my several hundred dollars worth of books, which I'm going to do in about an hour.
However, the main point of this post is to explain about how true to the saying is that "old habits die hard".
Today, sitting in COMM 200 after I had already given up searching out my attractive buddy, I actually attempted to listen to what my professor was saying. However, being my first day in that class, all he was doing was going over the syllabus, which for this particular professor included a five minute rant about what we'd be covering in every other class for the rest of the quarter. Needless to say, within the first ten minutes of him talking, I'd already nodded off. I had made a promise to myself that I wouldn't let myself sleep my way through college like I did through high school, but there ya go. There were over 500 students in the room, so there was no way he was going to notice that I'd nodded off. I slept my way through an hour and a half lecture, and I have no shame in having done so. My only regret is not using that time to find my cute guy.
Lesson learned: Don't tell yourself what you can't do because you'll do it anyway.
