*Sigh* So This is What It's Like to Be Stood Up and in College...

~I now know the feeling~

So, Today was a very, very eventful day. I went back to my World Civ I, class. I was expecting today, which was a lecture day, to be simple. Yet again, I was in for a surprise. Apparently my college life has been full of surprises. Me no likey.

The Professor presented the information on a powerpoint. Which I was totally fine with. But then she would only spend like 30 seconds to a minute on each slide! I had learned my first college lesson. If you are going to take notes, either take notes quickly, or just continue writing and pay attention to what the professor is saying. I felt like I never had time to look up and see the power point. I was constantly writing for about 1 hour and a half. Also the information I learnt that day, well there was so much! I felt like my brain was going to collapse on itself.

But the class was very enjoyable. My professor already likes me as a student. YAY POINTS!
I think its because I asked alot of questions about what she was saying. I mean I did the reading, but some of the things she was talking about wasn't in it. So curiosity got the better of me and I started asking questions. I probably annoyed some people, because I made her talk more. But I don't care, I'm here to learn things and broaden my horizons!

Another surprise today, was I got a text message from someone. I don't really remember who it was from, but they told me to meet them at the commuters lounge. So I go there, and I met some new people. Talked with some people, yada yada. I waited for hours there, and saw people come and go. At about 10:30 I realized I just got stood up. By someone I don't remember who! Oh if you're wondering "why doesn't he just check his inbox?" That was a wonderful idea, but I cleared it out after getting their message. *sigh*

So yeah, two surprises on the same day! Wait there's more!

I kind of got somewhat pissed today as well. Well people were talking about something. These people then bring up someone I know, doing something that impacted something. So I naturally ask what happened. Guess what they respond.

"Oh, don't worry about it, you're too young."

What the heck? Why am I always too young? When will I be old enough to know things? I know people like how I'm all innocent and what not, but c'mon, I don't want to be ignorant about everything. I sound so naive about everything alot of time. People think thats cute, but I think it makes me feel stupid. I want to be informed! I don't think I'm that young.

But I guess it's because I still have the mentality of a child. I don't respond well to some things.

Hahaha, so I guess its kind of my fault.

Oh well. So today's review:
  • I learned how fast lectures go..
  • I got stood up by someone unknown.
  • I'm still too young to know anything.
Yup! That's a little snippet of my life for today.

P.S. I also happened to join my college newspaper. I'm doing the puzzles/riddles section.
