2:27 am - its been a while...
|
so i havent updated since i got to college and i cant sleep now so i figure i shall spend a few with the lj... my 'genius' schedule isnt all its cracked up to be... i figured cramming the first 3 days of the week with almost all of my classes would make my week easier but it really hasnt... ive been appointed rush chairman even after respectfully declining the postition because tucker was too lazy and i had to take control of the position... they guys wanted me to be social as well but i really need to focus on my school work to get my shit back together there.. my classes arent that bad i suppose.. 3 night classes may have been a mistake tho... i spend most of the class time texting people and delegating shit to get done and no one wants to do it.. so essentially i do everything anyway.. rush has been crazy.. it was very successful and we didnt even throw a party... we had a mixer and a couple events that blew up like whoa and alot of 'hey lets pregame here and go to a party' nights that turned into 'that party's lame' nights that end with everyone at our house anyway.. even brothers from fraternities that are throwing a party come to my house insteada being at theirs... it was pretty badass.. we have a solid group of kids that are looking to pledge and we're already fighting for picks for little bros... we had kids that the first day they meet us the first words outta their mouths are 'we wanna pledge tep' which was pretty fucking cool... but i guess it helps that 2 of the 3 real sororities on campus were sending freshman to our house... it was a fun experience to hang out with all these kids but i needed a break from drinking... as crazy as that sounds.. apparently i cant handle 18 credits while drinking till 5 in the morning every day of the week... by the end of this week i was sleeping thru 1:00pm classes and yesterday i couldnt even go to my one class i had.. which was at 6pm because i felt like shit and knew i wouldnt be able to sit thru that class... i hope that tucker picks up a lil and comes thru as social so i dont hafta do everything... i actually hafta start buckling down and doing work at night... meanwhile.. i went to dane cook tonight with tom, decaro, christina, weisman, and his friend amire?... he was fucking hilarious... good times... o and i think i wanna stop working on the weekends.. im dreading having to get up tomorrow and work from 2-10:30... the only thing i have to look forward to is a lunch break.. because lately the days ive been working have been slow as fuck... and that is lame... and i think im gonna try and sleep now.. peace out homies...

12:14 am - lately i've been....
|
work.... i am down to my last 2 weeks at target... its sad because i enjoy getting paid to not do my job and to have fun with cool people while i do it.... but im gonna work at best buy during school because it pays more and i like the discount.. wedding crashers is by far the best movie i have seen... probably ever.. i saw it again the other day is it was even better than the first time... my cell phone is gay.. the screws are loose and it doesnt stay on for more than 5 minutes... my new one 'should' be in by wednesday... i got my dorm for next year.. my roommate is a typical staten island guy who is graduating this coming spring.. and my family thinks this will keep me away from alcohol how??... i have a feeling this semester is gonna be misreble because nothing is turning out the way it was supposed to.. and i dont like it... my parents are gay.. i want independence... my car is still messed up from last monday... falling asleep behind the wheel is bad when you hit something... yeah... im done just felt like updating...

2:46 am - update!
|
i cant believe its july already.. 2 months into summer and all i can really say is that its been pretty weak so far.. all ive really done is work 3 jobs... its really more like i have one full time job and to shitty part time jobs... target had been alright... i like the people i work with for the most part.. some of the managers there dont like me because i slack off and hang out with the sales floor people alot.. i heard the ones that didnt like me tried to change store policy so that all employees had to tell a manager when they were going on break.. get like a lil punch card or post-it saying what time they left.. and then had to give it back when they got back and if you were even a minute late you get written up... apparently they dont like it when myself and like 8 other people purposely take breaks at the same time and stay on break longer than we should... the clerk-y chicks were really cool today cause they gave me my check a day early... best buy would be alot better if they actualy gave me hours.. i had a whopping 8 hours last week and an even better 7 1/2 this week and thats with the meeting we had that everyone had to go to.. apparently we will have a bigger budget for labor next week and i should get more hours.. its onna the downsides to having 5 extra people on the payroll... but the job is really easy... its mainly based on customer service and helping people find stuff and whatnot... thats really all i do.. the people there are really cool and i dont think there is one person i dont like working with there.. but then again.. the total hours ive woeked at best buy in like amonth ive worked at target in a week.. itd be really great if they gave more hours since they are paying me $1 more than target per hour.. i gotta swing by tomorrow and get my chekc and schedule for next week... and then theres the cleaners.. i only work there thursdays now when im not scheduled at target.. i plan on leaving soon because i dont really need to work there and i could use some time off.. but once again another job paying more than target but not providing the hours... i will hopefully be buying my ipod this weekend since my cd player has been mia for a few weeks now.. i figure i should be able to spend a lil money since im working so damn much.. i kinda miss school... i hate not having the freedom i had at school.. speaking of which... i lost 7000 in scholarship moeny.... which is more than half of my tuition.. i attempted to appeal it but i have to wait 2 weeks for the financial aid board to review my case to see if i can get it back... hopefully that will go well.. tomorrow is day 3 of the ordeal of switching rooms with my lil sis.. she really wants my room for some reason and i agreed to switch... since her room is bigger and everything.. also it give me a chance to clean my room hardcore and pack shit away that i dont want around anymore.. right now both rooms look atrocious... but tomorrow hopefully we'll be done.. id like to see jenna again this weekend.. the first week or so of break was such a tease because we saw each other like eveyday.. and now its back to 1-2 times a week.. but we're both need to work so i guess thats how the cookie crumbles.. what else... oh im seeing dane cook in september.. i cant wait.. and i finally got new ac units for the bedrooms so i no longer have to sweat my balls off when i sleep... good stuff good stuff.. yeah.. hopefully i will work some shit out with work and have time to see everyone and jenna especially... but only time will tell.. well im going to sleep now... i have a busy day tomorrow..

|
today... i decided to not be a waste of life.. today is day one (officially) of my motivational turn-around... i have been so rediculously lazy lately to the point where i was on the verge of jeopordizing my semester.. but today.. today was a good day.. i pulled my ass out of bed on time today... i showered.. i went to physics... then i ate lunch with grace... then i went to my honors seminar thingy.. then i did the leg work to offically change my major... then i saw my advisor to get the hold off my account to schedule for next semester.. the m.e. advisor is awesome and actually helpful as opposed to the undecided advisor who is just like 'whatever do what you did last semester'... then i went to my chemistry class and learned chemistry for the first time in forever.. then i went to the house to get a book from tucker which i needed for the audio tape lessons for chem.. which i did after that... then i went to the gym with tucker and lifted... then i took a shower and ate dinner with grace, amy, hala, laura and jess... good times with the ladies as always... then i met up with gregg tucker and scarpelli and ate ice cream... then i ran back to the dorm and did my physics homework... then a brotherhood meeting at the house.. then i came back and made soup for amy cause she is sick :-(... then i took some well deserved rest time and now im going to do my outline for my hss class.. which i will actually be going to tomorrow night.. i am very pleased with myself today that i pulled my shit together and played the responsibility game.. hopefully i can continue this going to class and doing my work thing.. especailly since i seem to still have time to hang out with my friends while getting shit done.. anyway... im off to work now.. later

February 27, 2005 3 Arrested in 'Gates' Vandalism By MICHAEL BRICK
After two weeks of constant display, charming its visitors with a sense of unfolding ambiguity, "The Gates" left the city one last gift yesterday in the form of an answer to this question: Is it possible to guard 7,503 outsize orange drapes spread across 23 miles of Central Park day and night?
And the answer is: no, with an asterisk.
"The Gates" were vandalized with markers, but three New Jersey men were quickly arrested, hence the asterisk. The speed of the proceedings might have had something to do with the suspects writing their own names on four gates, according to the police.
At about 1:30 yesterday morning, officers came across the three men, Gregory Giarnitta, 19, of Parsippany; John Leonard, 20, of Hackettstown; and David Jones, 19, of Minehill, and issued them summonses for being in the park half an hour after its closing time, the police said.
Later, officers discovered that four gates had names scrawled on them. And the names were familiar - the three men who had just been given tickets, the police said.
Officers looked around the park, but the men had already gone home to New Jersey, a police official said. The police called the men and told them to return to Central Park, to the 22nd Precinct station house, where they were arrested and charged with making graffiti, criminal mischief and possession of a graffiti instrument, though no markers were recovered, a police official said.
Megan Sheekey, a spokeswoman for the parks department, said the damage to the four gates, which are bound for recycling, was easily fixed.
"It was just marker, and it's on vinyl, so you can just wipe it off," Ms. Sheekey said.
