bascially thursday

As I explained in the last two updates, I had internet trouble, so I have not blogged for the last two days. So, this blog is yesterday's blog (Thursday 1/21/2010) in case any of you were wondering what month and year it was I gave the date there so no one would be left in the dark...

I had no resolution for yesterday, beause I made no blog for the day before that, so I will attempt to entertain you with the happenings of yesterday minus a resolution.

I was at school from 11:00am - 9:30pm. I only had two classes too, imagine that. So, I had a huge gap with nothing to do from 12:30 - 6:00. Okay, by "nothing to do" I mean, no classes. Because, Ben Schmitt can always find something worthwhile to do!

I decided to go into the computer lab and go on Facebook. While on Facebook I noticed that one of my friends, Rebecca (most of you probably don't know her) was online, and we've been talking a lot lately over Facebook, so we talking for about an hour over chat.

It was really humerous... probably a little too humerous for my own good. I am sitting in a silent computer lab with 40 other students studying, Youtubing, and being lazy. You could hear a feather fart it was so quiet. And, randomly throughout my converation, I would burst out laughing, forgetting that I was in the middle of an awkwardly quiet room with other stern students.

I got many dissaproving looks. But, it was so worth it. I am such a rebel, right? I know, I'm pretty proud, too!

Also, I just noticed how creepy and weird DCTC is. It is kind of scary.
I was trying to write on my laptop in the common's area (usually a pretty good place to study) when suddenly, the room is filled with... interesting people.

By "interesting" I mean, I zipped up my backpack and moved all my possessions close to me and continually glanced up to make sure none of them turned into zombies or anything.
There was a group of about 10 students, I don't mean to judge or discriminate, but by the way they talked, acted, dressed, and held themselves, I could tell that they were part of a group at DCTC. The group is for high school drop outs (maybe got expelled for fighting... drugs... etc...) and now DCTC has a special prgram for them. Also, the fact of them all getting onto the bus at the end kind of gave it away.

Of course, with my luck, being surrounded by a gang isn't bad enough. So, some more people came. One guy walked around the commons for about 15 minutes, hand to his ear speaking into it like a walkie talkie saying: "Break, break, break."
It was slightly unsettling. By "slightly" I mean "very".

So, I acted like I had a class to go to and escaped to the computer lab again.
That pretty much summed up my entire day: having an awesome conversation, being stared at for laughing in the silence, being surrounded by a gang, and some people who thought their hands were communication devices.

Don't you envy my life?

My resolution for tomorrow (which is today, 1/22) is to clean up my life, organize, and be awesome. I will clerify what that all means later tonight when I write today's blog. Until then, happy thursday!
