Tuesday January 17th

got my osap done!! It was hassle free and i'm glad to have it done. Went to the mall after dinner with W to pick up a few things for the house, OMG it was SOO cold! Also the new bus system is awful. I'm pretty sure I won't be able to find my way around anymore which is incredibly annoying. I don't see why they couldn't just keep the pre-existing routes but make them more frequent and add bus routes to the new areas. Not impressed.

I can already feel myself getting behind. We're celebrating W's birthday on Saturday and going out for dinner on Tuesday but I have a quiz on Wednesday that I haven't even started looking at/doing practice questions. I've also got a ton of readings to do....I really need to get my act together within the next couple days otherwise there is going to be HELL to pay when my parents find out whats been going on.

Sears doesn't have any makeup counters that I really want stuff from. I guess shoppers is the only place to buy makeup nearby which is very strange. 2 stores at the mall have closed so i'm curious what will come and take its place. Hopefully something good :) Perhaps a sephora or mac?? Wishful thinking?

T is obviously back together with the boy...and by back together I mean back to whatever it is they're doing. I don't get how she just keeps getting back together with him when its so obviously not working and he is completely using her. I agree with D, she is a drama whore. She complains about everything and always thinks she has it worse than everyone else. She complains about how she hates living with girls...well you're not such a walk in the park either! The thing is their 'relationship' has affected my friendship with T. I find myself getting more and more annoyed with her and I don't really feel like making the effort to talk more anymore. I'm the type of person that really cares about my friends but with her I've suddenly just stopped caring. It doesn't help that she is the type of girl who will always choose a boy over her friends and than expect them to be there when they get into another one of their 'fights.' Which can last from a couple hours to maybe a week.

Considering she doesn't have any close school friends that she regularly talks to or hangs out with, and that none of them wanted to live with her after 2 years you would think she would understand that there is obviously something not right with this situation. I mean she has never even brought a friend to the house before! Not to celebrate her birthday or work on a project or to just hang out. It seems like her friends are class friends and nothing more, the type of people you'll sit beside and talk to in class but won't take the effort to meet up outside of the school setting.

I always thought everyone followed the girl code: boys come and go but friends last forever. Apparently that needs to be changed to friends last forever as long as you don't push them away.

Friday January 13th

Good news! Went to pick up my OSAP today and the technician (not really sure what to call them) just glanced at my form and that was that! Unfortunately my tuition payment hasn't gone through yet so i'm going to have to go back in on Tuesday but I still feel an overwhelming sense of relief. This is such an ordeal that easily could have been prevented!

I have this roommate, lets call her T. T has been 'on and off' if what they're doing can even be called that with her boyfriend since they first lived in residence 4 years ago. My other roommates and I have only had to deal with this since September (thank goodness!) and the boyfriend situation was one of the reasons why J decided to move out this semester. Anyways T, W and I were watching Inkheart and of course T isn't paying attention to the movie. W hit the nail on the head, unless its something shes seen before and knows she likes she won't pay attention during it and will just think its a bad movie. So we're watching the movie and T goes into her room, changes and then tells us shes leaving to watch a movie...HELLO we are watching a movie right now! The only likely possibility is that it was with the boyfriend and shes definitely 'that' girl that puts her boyfriend in front of her friends. Its happened so many times already that I don't even think I'm surprised anymore, and yet she wants us to be there for her when they break up (for like a day, the record has been 3 hours) and listen to her complain about how this was their biggest fight ever or its done for good.

Thats what she was saying on Tuesday when we all went out for trivia. Seriously just listen to how this went down, shes been ranting about him since we all moved back for the semester saying that shes over him and shes definitely not going to help him this semester and he really messed up this time but shes going to meet him tomorrow. Her reasoning was that he broke her necklace and she wants it back but later on goes to say that they might get back together tomorrow. Seriously?? SERIOUSLY?!?! Its bad enough that you don't see the problem with him being here literally every single day or that hes basically using you in every possible way but to be such a hippocrite and counteract yourself is too much.

I guess this is just the week where T has overly annoyed me because in terms of general housekeeping things I can barely stand her. She always leaves the brita filter empty after she uses it (how hard is it to fill it up...the sink is right next to it!), she never empties the dish rack and if its full (of dry dishes) she will just try to pile her wet ones on top. Take today for example, she slept through her 1 class of the day so was basically at home all day complaining how bored she was and the dish rack was still full of dishes from last night when i got home at 3. I know they were yesturdays dishes because she just left all her dirty ones in the sink... Speaking of dishes she doesn't clean them properly and I mean you can literally still see bits of oil or food on the pans the next day. She never buys toilet paper, paper towel, cleaning supplies etc. but absolutely overuses all of it.

I know this was more of a rant post and thats not exactly what I want my blog to be about but it is always nice to get it out. I'm going to a health studies symposium tomorrow morning (meaning I should really be asleep already) so I'm excited to see how that will go. Also I may (or may not) be running for the exec committee for my major for next year. I feel as though my poor average last semester may be a hinderence but if I can get on the exec panel thats a good leadership role I can put on my resume.

Until tomorrow's update :)
