Fall Quarter 2003

The Fall Quarter 2003 at Cal State LA starts tomorrow. I’m a little nervous. The first day of the school year always gives me the jitters. I can’t sleep. I don’t feel that I’m ready. I just need one more class to add. Why do I wait till the last minute?

I’m a senior. Ooh-rah! I have about one and a half year to go till graduation. It’s been a very long road, full of bumps and detours. I will be glad to see it end. It’s time to start living.

Summer’s End

Today marks the end of summer and the start of school. The Fall Semester began today for PCC. The campus was alive with the enormous magnitude of students; Shinny happy people.

What a hectic day. It took over twenty minutes to exit the freeway. Due to recent construction, the campus was short one parking lot. The masses were scrambling in search of parking. I ended up parking six blocks away. There was a five-car fender-bender by one of the parking lot. On the other side of campus, a car jumped curb and got stuck on the sidewalk. Today was a bad day to drive to school.

I’m going to start taking the Metro Gold Line. The first day of the Fall Quarter for CSULA isn’t this hectic.

Cal State LA

It’s amazing that a year has passed. Things have changed so much, yet some things haven’t changed at all. I’m at a new school. A much bigger school, no doubt. I would have a much better time at CSUN, but it’s too late now. I guess CSULA is good enough. I no longer take the bus. I drive now. I thought I would always be relying on public transportation. Silly me. I still love snowboarding. My heart prounces when I see the slopes of the distant mountains to the east covered with snow. Life is good. Oh yeah. But, one thing that has not changed is the feeling that I am alone. I love my friends and I am so thankful for having them. But sometimes I feel as if I don’t belong, that I am different.
