'How Quick Come The Reasons For Approving What We Like!' -Jane Austen
I've just now noticed how college becomes our second family kinda thing. It's like my old school, there's no better place to feel loved than there... even with all the little things it was like a 2nd family, and college has been working around the same lines.-> You have a crappy day, you go to college, you get a smile on your face and that was the best day ever! I'm not exaggerating.
I don't know if I've mentioned how I ended up at this college, I don't think I have so... I wanted to major in media arts and animation, I had picked out a college (one of the best art colleges in Sao Paulo), and had focused simply on going to that college. They have several departments and the art campus was really far from home, except for they were finishing to build a new one near home and the arts department was gonna be there... it was perfect, I'd graduate form school and go right into college. Well, it ends up things don't quite work my way and they weren't gonna transfer the art department till next semester. Grrrrr. I had a plan B but it was pretty stupid actually. I tried for my second college option. In that college they didn't have media arts and animation, but they had digital design, which was also something I'd like to do. It just so happens that once again the art campus was real far from home, and they'd have classes at night. This would mean that in order for me to go to that college I'd have to live with grandma, leaving mom to live on her own. That wouldn't work. Also to top it all off that college was waaaay toooo expensive. No way Hosay. Dang it, I become a couch potato... no school to go to, I just sit at home. (Phew I'm glad it's over cuz I hated it!). Six months later when time comes to apply to college I still can't go to my first option college cuz they hadn't moved yet. Well, there I am feeling like scum not knowing what to do when mom comes and say's 'hey Nash I saw this college ad somewhere that I think you would very much enjoy, why don't you take a look at it?' - I didn't have much of a choice there... it was either going to that college or sit for six more months, which really, wasn't an option! I chose a major that mom had suggested me to take a look at (she thought it had all to do with me) I swear I didn't even read what it was. I applied and got in, no goals, no nothing. I was freaking disappointed and I didn't wanna be there. That was it. -- Now, I'm so very happy and grateful for everything having gone wrong before, cuz now I know that this was really the right/best option, and that in reality if my will had been done, that would've been the wrong way out! I'm not so sure of what my major is called in English; in Portuguese it's Comunicacao Empresarial... I love it. Mom was right; it has all to do with me.
I got my book back. Now we'll start with the second group: Physical And/Or Mental Hyperactive ness.

-Yeah that's me. I'll sit up, slide in my seat, cross my legs, lean on my hands, sit up again, and so forth...

Being bored in class. Despite my demonstration of 'love' towards college a few lines above, school yesterday was really boring! - It ends up we have to come up with solutions to entertain ourselves, and this is what we got. Rafa was the mastermind behind this... they're document pictures, that's why we look yucky... hihihi I love it!
