So, if anyone doesn't know, my car battery died last night while my friends and I were getting ready to leave the city from the fireworks. We thought it just needed some juice so what we did hooked it up. Come to find out, the battery was dead and I had to buy a new one. So we went to the walmart, took us forever to find a battery and then I had to pay $150 for a battery and some tools so my friend could replace the battery. (He took auto-tech when we were in high school.) Bad thing is I only had $80 on my card so we had to use my friend's cousin card to pay half for it.
So now I have no fucking money to my name which I needed for college books in the fall. Ain't that some shit? At least he was able to replace it and my car is up and running again. But still, now I have no money. I have no money for books and I'm sure as hell my parents aren't going to pay for them. And now I possibly won't be able to get Continuum Shift when it releases later this month. Hopyfully my mother reimburses me for the battery but still, that won't cover my books. Trying to find a job is a bitch, I've applied to numerous places near my college and I haven't gotten a call yet.
But while we're on the subject of college, I'm thinking maybe I chose the wrong college to attend. The college I'm attending next month is one of two colleges that have my desired major. I don't know why, but I feel like I'm not going to like it. I really don't like the campus cause it's sort of in a country setting. I'm a city boy and that kind of setting doesn't sit well for me. There doesn't seem to be much around it either, sure it has some restaurants and fast food places but I prefer to have an area where I can just walk around to get my destination, even if I do have a car. Again, I think its because I'm a city boy. I recently went to SPSU (the college I'm attending) for a program and stayed over a few nights. I got a little bit of the college life, I didn't like it at SPSU. Saw some people there, didn't really like them.
There are other reasons but I won't bore you with them. Bottom line, I think I may just transfer after Summer of 2011. Gives me time to see if I truly don't like this school (though also because the Fall freshmen deadline has already passed), I already told my parents my plan and they are fine with it. Even if it is 3 hours away from home.
That's pretty much my rant.
