I'm So Awkward

Yeah, so for the past few days I haven't really been myself around most people. I feel awkward for some reason, and I'm not sure exactly why. I could take a few guesses I suppose. Let's see... I've met alot of new people in and out of class for the past few weeks and so I haven't quite made a groove yet. I'm pulling pretty strange hours and trying to get a feel for the norm. I'm in the midst of a great deal of re-evaluations pertaining to specific areas of my life. It could be any number of things. Maybe I just need some time to unwind a little bit, who knows. Or it could be that I'm just going through one of my introverted stages, but usually that involves some form of self pitty, which I haven't felt in quite some time now. I guess I'll just wait it out and see what happens.

I do know that my memory feels like it has been erased... atleast in relationship to audio information. I feel so lost in my classes, especially in my upper level Recording Engineer class at Oceanway. Everyone else seems so knowledgeable and proficient with the equipment and I still have questions as to how they work. I'm trying to harness that as a learning opportunity and not beat myself up about it, but it isn't easy. I'm just going to have to study overtime.

And MAN my shoes stink! Something bad happened to them last night because they smelled fine yesterday but this morning when I woke up they smelled horrible. I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and just buy new shoes. These were so faithful though, and they've been all around the world with me. It will be a shame to have to retire them.

Ahh... so they must have turned the heat back on today. The clanking pipes is a dead give-away. And speaking of which, yesterday I cleaned out my airconditioner because it was absolutely full of dust and I even went to the lengths of creating a contraption to sit in my AC so that I could put my broken filter back in when I was done cleaning it. Well... I come back from class this morning and I have a note under my door that says that maintenance came by and... cleaned my airconditioner. I ran to check to see if my little invention survived the intrusion... but no... I will just have to make another one :(

They clean out our AC... but the waterfountain has been broken for over a year now... That just doesn't seem right to me.

Oh! Funny thing happened last night. I was over at the Pembroke House and we were going to watch our show in Vikings room. Anyways, as he was setting up his tv, he picked up to coaxil cables to connect them and shocked himself with enough electricity that it flipped the circuit breaker. While the breaker was off we plugged everything back in and set up a bunker of chairs and pillows in front of the tv because we were worried that it was going to explode when we cut the power back on... So then we flipped the switch, but the electricity was still so screwed up that we couldn't get the switch to flip until we unplugged the tv. Crazy how that works, but probably all for the better. I think I'm going to open that tv up and try to fix it.

Well, I've got a bit of stuff to do in the morning, so I'll be heading off to bed now. Hope all is well where you reside. Peace and love.
