Just another Day

It's been such a long time since I have posted anything! Kitten must apologize but it was a rather busy four months. I have started at my new college and, while I really miss my old one, Kitten is starting to get used to here. The hardest part was that there are so many people where as, in my old college, we had a very small campus. I admit, I miss my Lil Sis. It has felt odd not having her room with me.

My new roommates are not from around here, Monique is from New Jersey and Insa is from Egypt. I like both of them but I'm so busy I have had hardly anytime to talk with them. They are both busy also, being graduate students.

I have 7 classes but my favorite is modern art history. I have been wanting to take a class like this for some time but could never fit it into my schedule. It interesting to learn about how all the things in that time period influenced the picture. It just gives you a whole new view of it. There have been several that we have talk about in class that I, before hand, I just did not understand or like, until we talk about them and why they were important and unique. I love the professor too. She is such a sweetheart.

I'm retaking Anatomy and Anatomy even though I passed it two years ago. I needed a refresher since it has been so long. While its a tid bit annoying I don't think that I will have too much trouble with it. I'm hoping that it will be an easy A.

Then there is Chemistry and Chemistry Lab. It is defintely interesting but its hard to concentrate sometimes. I'm hoping to get an A- to a B in this course. It will be more challenging to me since I have not had it for three years.

My Intro to Professional Nursing is rather dull right now which annoys me. I was hoping we would be doing more then what we are. While I don't feel it is a waste of time, I think that talking about study habits and how to read is more for freshman and transfer students like the rest of us in this class.

My final class is Psychology. It is just general psychology and I think it will be an easy A. I have covered most of it in other classes anyway.

I envy my Lil Sis, she gets to take human sexuality (stamps paw and pounces on Lil Sis's tale) I was wanting to take that but couldn't fit it in. Luck Lil Sis.

Kitten is also feeling a little surpised. After having no contact with James for most of the summer, he calls me up yesterday. We had a long, rather odd talk. Not going into details right here and now. However it made Kitten realized that she not only missed her ex but also a good friend, that I haven't seen in forever. {sighs} life is to complicated but oh well. Alas, I need to go and prepare for lad {Kitten strides off to go find her googles and mixtures. Time for chemistry ;)

Worries

I started my Personality Psych class today. It seems like it will be very interesting but demanding. Thankfully, the only homework we have is to read the chapters and listen in class. The professor is funny and I think that he will make the class interesting. We are doing powerpoint { apart of me died we he said that} but he doesn't recite from it thankfully, so I won't be wanting to fall asleep in class out of sheet boredome. The only thing that I don't really like about this class is that the chapters are long; about 35-45 pages long. It's accounting all over again : (

On another annoying note, Donna over at the Clinton office is off on vacation. Swaim wants me to work over there during the day, but, hello, I have class and school work. One of the main reasons that I am taking summer classes is so that I don't have to be at work all day and I won't be so stressed. I'm fine with just the class but when he throws work in afterwards, it just ruins my entire day. I have to do homework after I get off, for goodness sake. I told Swaim to tell Alberta that I would be there Tuesday and Wednesday after 1 and on Friday from 8-11:45. I can't work all day because I have an appointment with my advisor at 1.

I was reading a blog that I haven't read in a while. Real Princess Diaries is an interesting blog and I find Alexa so uninhibitied. I wish I had just a little of her I don't give a damn attitude but alas I don't. She was talking about gang banging and how liberating it was for her. While there are many thing that I would like to do, gang banging, is not one of them. Although, in a way, I can sort of understand her appeal.

There are somethings regarding sex, however, that I wish I didn't have an attraction to. That or I wish I had been raised in a more liberal household. I have been trying to hide my head in the sand when it comes to my attraction to women but it isn't working. But am I really bi-sexual or just curious? I try not to think about it but thoughts keep poping up in my head. What am I supposed to do? I feel so torn. In a way I would like to explore this but know that morally it is wrong. I cannot help how I feel but I can help how I react to my emotions. I would be a hypocrite if I did it any other way. If I could just get it out of my mind. When the fall term starts, I'm sure that I'll be too busy to wonder. Let's hope anyway.

Speaking of the fall term, I really hope that I get along with my new roommate. That's actually my biggest worry: that I'll get with someone who I just cannot get along with or that I am uncomfortable with. Preferably, I would like a transfer student because then we could get to know the campus and people together vs being put with a girl who has been there for 2 years and already has a group of friends. I should find out in the next two week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Kitten's Change

Kitten wanders into blog and sleepily lays on velvet cushion. It has been such a gloomy day today. I want the sunshine {whines }.

It has been very busy so Kitten has barely had time to catch her breath let alone blog. After much reflection and thought I have decided to change my major. While I love accounting and find anything in the business sector interesting, it just isn't what I want to be doing my entire life. I want to be in a job where I am able to move around and work in different places. I really want to work internationally. I know I have talked about working in Europe and have bent numerous hours pouring over French books. Is working in Europe going to be any different than working in the US. Ok, yes, the rules of accounting would be different but my life would pretty much be the same. I want a change.

Therefore, Kitten has decided that nursing is going to be her chose profession. With nursing I can get a job anywhere. I can with with a doctor in private practise or work at a hospital or find some relief work, like the Red Cross, and working where people are really needed to help. There is also a lot of job security and while the pay isn't going to make me a millionaire, it is decent enough.

Changing majors means that I must part with my current college and leave all my friends and professors. I'll miss them but I feel it is time to move and start another chapter. I don't regret going to my current college. I love and will miss it. They have great professors ( for the most part) and the one-on-one attention is not like anything that I will find at my current college.

Not to make it sound that I will be moving across the country. No I shall just be down the road some 10 miles away. My new college is a public university but compared to many other public ones, it is not all that big. I think there is about 2500 total for the undergraduate section. I will thankfully not be living in the dorms but will have an apartment on or near campus. While I like the idea, I'm a little worries because I have never lived on my own before. Even at my current college, it felt more like a big mansion with a lot of girls. An apartment by myself for some reason sounds daunting but I'm sure that I will get over it eventually.

My summer class started last week and, for the most part it is going well. My class is rather small for this college, about 14. The class is called Quantitative Literacy. This is pretty much just the basic math course but I felt like a needed a refresher before getting into the college algebra and trig.

My Lil Sis and I had a nice Saturday. We went to the pool and swam for a little while. We tried playing a volleyball like game in the water but it was much easier than it sounded. I have a weak arm and the ball kept getting away from Lil Kitten and going to the deep end but we still had a lot of fun. Then we came back home and went and had Chinese and after that we went to Movie Gallery, which is going out of business and looked around. I was shocked to find two seasons for "Secret Life of a Call Girl" I had want to watch it but did not know they had it so I bought both seasons. Then we came back home and watched "Beverly Hill Chihuahua" and "Confessions of a Shopaholic" both are great movies. We also make time to read some of the confessions from Cosmo. I love those things.

Kitten's Illness

Kitten drags herself into blog. The first week of summer vacation and I'm sick. Not fair! I don't want to be sick {whimpers}. It's a cold day out today and not very sunny so I'm not missing much I guess.

I can't believe that school is out. Finally, no homework, no stress, and some alone time. Overall, my grades were pretty good. I had A's in Accounting Problem Solving, Intermediate French, Theology, Security, and Business Law. What hurt my poor GPA (now at 3.69) was Intermediate Accounting which was a C. I haven't had a C as a final grade since elementery school. It's so flustrating but there is no use in crying over spelt milk.

I will be starting my summer classes in a few. Yay math! {I say that very sarcastically} I will be taking my two required math courses but atleast they will be out of the way and I can focus on some other classes that apply to my major.

Speaking of majors, I'm thinking of adding Business Adminstration as another major. It really wouldn't affect me that much because I have to take most of the same classes for my Accounting major. It might be good to have a backup in case I decided accounting wasn't for me.

Other than classes and hanging out with some old friends, I'll just be relaxing this summer which sounds so nice after the hell of this past term. My stress level was through the roof but now I might be able to calm down.

I feel like a nap so I'll write later.

Changes for Kitten

Kitten has decided that she is going to make some changes this summer. There is only three days left of this school year ( not counting today) and I have decided this summer is going to be different. A new study method, a new clothing style, and a few new adventures, when if they are in my hometown. I'm getting rid of the old things that are just hindering me and I have taken the first step today. Cowgirl has official been taken off the my Facebook friends. She does nothing but cause trouble so I have removed both her and Alex (nothing personal to him). From now on I'm going to work on being more professional and confident but still be myself. I need a new me.

The Last Days

Kitten rushes into blog for a quick hello. I can't believe I only have one week left of school. These past three weeks have been hell for this little kitten. I've been running my tail off trying to get everything finished. Accounting Problem Solving, French, and Security all all finished. I will be finishing Theology tonight or tomorrow evening, depending. That just leaves Accounting and Business Law. I'm not worried about Business Law at all because it is just over the last four chapter and Brenda is pretty concise on the test and sticks exactly to what we talked about in class. No, the only class I have to worry about is Intermediate Accounting : ( Dr. G did give us a better study guide than he has for the past two so it might not be too bad, hopefully anyway.
I am almost moved out of my room with the exception of a rocking chair, footstool, and random odds and ends. Next year I will have a single room enclosed bathroom (wages tail excitedly). Room 401, 4C. The only thing I do not like is that my Lil Sis and I are sharing a suite, alas we are not even on the same floor. She is one floor belowe moi.
Well, I'll write later but theology is waiting anf Fr.B's take awhile to do.

The Kitten and the Cowgirl

Kitten is in rather restless and annoyed mood for this time of year. I have four weeks until freedom and yet I'm unhappy.Why? {Kitten swishes her fluffy tailed with an annoyed shake}Because some people are just infuriating me. As I posted awhile, Mark and I broke up. I still have his ring and want to give it back to him since he obviously paid a lot for it. I was able to get a hold of Cowgirl on Facebook but was subsequently ignored after hello. Would it really have left her so put upon if she listened to what I had to say. She is such a self-center, back-stabbing, trouble making idot that I can't stand to be around her anymore. I just wanted to ask her highness if she could return Ben's ring since I did not know his address. She and Jason see him all the time so it wouldn't exactly been out of the way. Well, any way I digress. Since she ignored me and eventually just got off line and I decided to just email Ben and ask for his address. However he still has not gotten back with me. You'd think he would want it back but I'm not so sure.
Kitten has such a list of things to do, I really don't have time to waster energy on Cowgirl. I don't know how I am going to get this all finished but, then again, that is what I say every year. I just need to get to it.
At first I wasn't too sure that this summer was going to be that much different than school but I don't care. I just want a different routine. I'm also glad that I am getting off this campus for awhile. Don't get me wrong. I love my college and love being here but I'm burnt out. Kitten needs a change of scenery. Besides, may be I'll get a break in there for a week or something.
Well need to get back to the school work.
