This Was A Crappy Weekend
Well, there were a few highlights, but overall, it sucked.
On Friday, I noticed that there were quite a few flies in my apartment. About five to six I had counted. I was having trouble killing a few of them, so I gave up and assumed that they’d die the next day. Well, by Saturday, they had multiplied and I probably had at least 20 flies in my apartment. Yes, it was very gross. I was the only one in my apartment too since MG went home and SS had gone somewhere. Once I had seen them multiply that quickly, I freaked out. I’m not talking about a backing away motion and hiding in my room (despite the fact that they could easily fly in because I don’t have a door), but actually freaking out. I was hyperventilating and crouching in the floor. At some point, I cried. I tried to call all of my nearby guy friends, but they were all busy or not here in town. Before leaving to another rush event last night, I finally called the manager. He had sent someone here to the apartment when I wasn’t home, but when I returned this morning, there were still quite a bit of flies left. I tried to contact a few friends again, but no one answered or replied, so I told the management that the job wasn’t done. They came in, killed them all, vacuumed the dead ones, and left a lamp in case there were still a few flying around.
I am disappointed. This was not something I was taking lightly. I was seriously upset and no one came. I know that some had circumstances they couldn’t fit with, but I always thought that when you really needed someone, at least one person would come. But no one did. I was left to try and deal with this myself despite knowing how much it upset me. I needed someone, anyone, and no one could come to save me. It’s very disturbing to me right now.
Another downer for the weekend is that stupid Linksys shit that I have to deal with. Every time I call support, I have to explain the whole story again. Every time I fucking call. My case should be done with, it should be sealed. I sent them their fucking replacement unit, but they still have my case open. And what did that result in? A nice wonderful $163.11 charge (not a pending charge, but a posted charge) in my bank account. I am not a happy camper. I will barely have enough money to make rent this month, especially with the extra $30 I have to put in so I’m not a very happy camper right now.
Actually… some other things happened, but right now, I’m too upset to write about them.

This Is A Whole New Start
It’s only been three days of school, I’ve got to do some reading, and yet, I’m not stressed out about it. For the last two nights, I’ve been going to the rush events hosted by Sigma Omicron Pi (SOPi). I’m really liking their house and the girls that I’ve met so far. They seem to share such a strong sense of sisterhood that I can only hope that they’ll give me the chance to have what they share with one another so well.
Classes are going pretty okay. Vietnamese will definitely be easy, but I am learning a few things here and there.
EC is out of town until Monday and when I’ll see him next, I don’t really know. I think that we need to have a talk though the next time that we do meet. I need to tell him how I feel and whatnot and I also want to see what’s going on with him and see where he wants to take things.
Hmm. Other updates… I don’t really know. I’m headed out to dinner soon with XG, then gotta go home and get dressed to go to another rush event. This event is going to be with the brothers of Axio (Alpha Xi Omega) and I was talking to another girl last night and she wanted to hit up the Lambda party too afterward.
Tomorrow, MH is throwing a small get-together at his new place so I’ll head out to the rush event for a bit to meet a few of the Pi Alpha Phi brothers then head over to MH’s.
I’m such a busy bee and I love it! I’m excited for this semester!
