My Place (v4)

Well.. seems someone is no longer talky. Me!

Hmm.. annoying, trying to get my sleeping to more "normal" times.. get to bed earlier last night, sleep about 8-9 hours.. in bed for about 10, then when I'm taking a shower.. I feel so tired I could just fall asleep in there.. bah.

So annoying, that should be enough sleep. Though guess I'll have to deal with that, while trying to change my sleep times.

I did say I was gonna mention my 9/11, story? Eh.. not much to it. Arrived at school, got out of the car.. about 9:45 am. So, if I had been in the car, maybe 5 more minutes? I would have heard something interesting on the radio I figure.

Then I was in class.. no one in the class seemed to have heard either, or they were keeping it to themselves. I had to wait outside for the beginning of, because they were going over a test I missed. While I was waiting, a girl I had a bit of crush showed up, and she had missed the test too. So, we got to wait outside together, lol.. err.. not much too it. I think there might have been a bit of flirting, but she had a boyfriend, so nothing could happen. And maybe there wasn't flirting, just being really friendly? We were friends. I think I'm not that good at that, least.. thinking back, there were times I think where I had been flirted with, and I totally missed it.

Anywho.. so while people are trapped, burning to death, etc.. I'm being all friendly with a girl I have a slight crush on. Go me! Really though, I didn't know.. and, actually now, I do remember my mind was completely "gone." Couldn't really focus or think well, which I figure was just how I "psychicly" reacted to what was going on. Not "open" enough to know what was happening, but enough to be effected by it.

Anyway, after the class, I went through the student union, on my way to another building, to change my classes slightly. Noticed they had TV's out in the main area, with students standing around it, watching.. this is different than normal, but figured some student thing was going on. In the place I went to, to change my classes, they had the radio on. Boy.. that was interesting. I listened, there was talks of bombs. Planes falling down, Pentagon being hit, twin towers down, etc. Sounded like world war 3 started on American Soil. Think the radio people were freaking out a bit, lol.. though, I was thinking, damn.. a hoax like that war of the worlds one, that was done back in the 1950's. I asked, and the people in the office told me it was true.. yikes, hehe.

So I was doing a bit of walking around on campus, went back to the building I had classes in, to see a professor. Been trying to get ahold of, saw some others. LOL, boy.. talk about freaking out! There was talk about the school being evacuated, because there was a nuclear power plant near it. Actually I think the people in the office I was trying to get my classes changed with, were talking about that. Anyway, talked with the professors a bit, was told about the room in the student Union, like for the commuter students.. with a big TV in it. Though all students could relax in it. So, after speaking with professions, etc.. went there. On a side note, College is kind of interesting, because you can talk, chat.. with professors, not just about school work. Almost like friends, lol. Least I never did that in high school..

Anywho, I went to the commuter room, watched TV.. safe to say, I got to see the planes trashing. Don't remember being shocked, etc.. just, maybe like wow? I did get more info though, and then got to see the people on the radio were freaking out a bit much. Oh well. Hmm.. there was a room open in the Union for giving blood, there were professional, etc.. walking around the Union to help comfort anyone who needed it.

I had lunch.. then eventually went home, since classes were cancelled, and found out no school the next day. So, was nice having a day off, lol.. ugh, I'm awful. =)

Wrote more than I planned, and wow, just noticed blogger has a spell check.. woohoo!
