Holy crap I was just nearly hit by a car.

Okay, here's the scoop. It's been raining recently, so the roads are wet. I'm heading into campus to hand in my assignment. The light turns green for pedestrians; I start crossing. Then, as I'm in the road, I hear the grinding noise of tire on wet road, and then all of a sudden there's a car right in front of me. I was literally one step away from being flattened, and I could see the expression of the guy driving as he frantically tried to stop.

No adrenaline, no shrieking, just... utter calm. I think I stopped walking as I heard the screech, which is interesting considering I had my headphones in, and I usually walk to the beat of the music. Good thing I keep my volume low enough to hear things, ey? Everyone who was crossing the road with me was kinda horrified, and couldn't believe I was still okay.

So, to everyone who's praying for me to have a safe trip tomorrow, just like to let you know that your prayers were preemptively answered.

I'm not full of rage, really. I only act that way on the internet :)

There will be words...

Okay, I haven't used this blog in a while but I really need a rant space.

GYAAAAAAAARRRRGH.

My American housemates will eat anything that isn't nailed down. Box of chocolates that I brought FROM CANADA? Half gone before I had to take them out of the fridge and hide them in my room. A whole container of cookies made specially for me to take into uni on wednesday and thursday, numbering 100 in total? I woke up this morning and there's TEN LEFT. TEN. OUT OF A HUNDRED.

Seriously, guys, what the smurf?

I'm going to have a word with them this afternoon about what they can and cannot eat. Also, I will suggest to them that THEY SHOULD ACTUALLY GO SHOPPING AND BUY FOOD INSTEAD OF SPENDING IT ALL ON DRINKS EVERY NIGHT.

Girls, you can play music and talk loudly until 11pm and keep me awake, FINE WHATEVER. You can make a mess of the bathroom. You can get drunk and passed out in the city every night like you've been doing so far. I don't care.

BUT YOU. DO. NOT. EVER. EAT. MY. FOOD.

Okay, I had an exam today. It went for 2:00 hours. I saw that on my timetable and went 'oh that must mean it is at two'. WRONG. It was at 9:30AM.

GYAAAAGH.

Thank God that I have such an awesome lecturer who is letting me write a catch-up essay to make up for the 40% of marks that I would have gotten in the exam.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have 100% of "40% of my total grade"'s worth of essay writing to do.

Sigh. Well, I haven't posted here in a while. FACEBOOK IS AWESOME.

My room is in the process of being tidied up and packed away, ready for me to move out. It's disturbing how much dust is lying around. There's like a horde of it everywhere. Ick. I'll be heading off to Canada for three whole months with me family! Hurray for family! The cold, not so much looking forward to. Oh well.

HURRAY.

I have discovered how I deal with problems. Apparently, the best way to deal with someone who likes you is just to treat them like a friend. Eventually, they get sick of you not reciprocating any kind of emotion whatsoever and they just like you, rather than like-like you. Yay for procrastination! The cause of and solution to all the world's problems!

... that being said, I'm going to come back from the holidays pretending I have a Canadian boyfriend. Maybe then the boys will stop sending me flowers or asking me to movies.

-edit- Also should prevent the lesbians from hitting on me, too. I should mention that as well.

... I'm a little calmer now. Read the Bible, prayed, talked to Mum. Less of a freakout here.

I'm... dating someone now?

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 10:27:32 GMT

... okay okay okay.

I just spent the last five minutes running back in forth in my tiny room banging my head against the wall and screaming. Well, praying. "I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO."

Because apparently I'm dating someone now?

Okay. A guy friend of mine hadn't seen a movie. I offered to see it with him. We had dinner, and drove me home. He offered to take me to see a different movie next week (which was tonight). This time, HE PAID FOR DINNER. And we saw the movie. And then he drove me home again. And now there are plans for us to meet up again during the week.

... IS THIS DATING BECAUSE I AM CONFUSED. SRSLY.

There has been no talk of 'i love you' or even 'i like you'. He did say he enjoyed my company, but that's it. And I only like him as a friend. I don't even know if he's a Christian - which, by the way, is the only reason I'm not dating ANYONE. Because I don't have any single Christian guy friends that I'm interested in... So, yeah.

If we ARE dating, it has to stop being 'dating'-dating. Because ... gyah! Gyah, because i am confused and confuzzled and IT WAS A TRAP in a way? And because i don't think it can or should go any further than just being friends. But of course I am an emotional retard and I hate hurting peoples' feelings and it's the most crushing thing a guy can hear from a girl when she says "lets just be friends." GYAH.

I know my mum reads this blog, so I know I'm going to get an email giving me advice. HELP.
