This not doing anything for the summer is really getting me down. I didn’t try to get financial aid for summer semester because I thought that I would be busy or something and clearly that idea was wrong. I’m still trying to get a job but that hunt is not going well. (Is anyone really surprised about this?) Sigh one day I’ll be a proper adult. Anyway I’m really excited for fall when school starts back up. The main reason I think I went back to school aside from the fact that I decided that I needed an actual degree rather then just my film school diploma is that I needed a way to get out of my dad’s house and I needed something productive to do. That worked really well I am out of my Dad’s house which is awesome because being over there is super depressing, also when I’m actually attending classes I feel like I’m working towards something I have something that I can tell people I’m doing and I found out that I actually really like learning. I knew that I liked it before but high school kind of beat that out of me and my first attempt at college wasn’t much better. I’m in a better place to understand education in general and I really really like it. A couple days ago I finally found out when I’ll be able to register for next semester so I spent and good part of the day trying to figure out my schedule which given that I can’t actually register for the month the school didn’t exactly have all of the information I needed but I did decide on the classes I wanted and some of the classes had teachers attached so with some searching on rate my professor I ruled out some teachers which was good. My school is supposed to be a community college aka local but they have five campuses spread out over southeast Michigan and some classes you can only get at certain locations which means serious driving. I found out that one of the classes I need for my major is only offered in one section at one location, this is seriously frustrating because I go to the Royal Oak campus it is close enough that I can walk (not happily because it is a really long walk but I can do it) and I can stay at my mom’s, this class is at the Orchard Ridge campus which is in Farmington which is at the absolute very least 45 min. to an hour drive and I don’t have a car still and I can’t ask my mom do make that drive which mean’s I’m going to have to stay at my dad’s for a night a week and get him to take me because it’s still far but it’s closer from there. So that’s super annoying but I’m hoping that something will pop up for that before I actually register that way I don’t have to spend all my time going all over the planet for class.
So um yeah I meant this to be more cheerful and have more then just a rant but I’m sort of bored with writing now and my computer is really starting to burn the crap out of my leg so I’m going to go and hopefully I have something better for you next time.
Oh here’s something possibly cheerful, I may have talked my sister in going down to Ohio for the wrock show in Akron which I’m really hoping will happen because I really want to go even if it is really far it’s the second closest show and I already missed the closest one but it’s okay because if I had gone to the one is Harper Woods then I wouldn’t be able to see All Caps who I’m really excited for. So yay happy.

p.s. I’m really not as depressed as the blogging would lead a person to believe. I am this bored but not so depressed.

p.p.s. I just wanted to add in a couple pictures so the first is at my sister’s graduation and the second two I took in my backyard a couple weeks ago.
