I thought college was going to be a lot harder. So far, it’s been pretty easy compared to high school. The first few weeks of school I remember my brother was telling me about how when he started college he was just so tired all the time and it was so much work. Meanwhile I’m just like whatever it isn’t so bad.
But my favorite thing that has happened since I started college is that I started working in this hardware store. It’s so cool and I love it so much. Thursday and Saturday are my favorite days of the week now, but especially Saturday because that’s when I get to cut boxes. Like for three years while my friend was working at the store I would hear every week about how horrible it is and all the torture she had to endure. Now I took over her job when she quit and I am just loving it. But she told the other people at the store about me, and she kind of exaggerated a little bit, saying that I like to play with knives and stuff. So when it’s time to cut the boxes my coworker just hands me the knife and tells me it’s time for my favorite part and I’m just like YES!! And my friend always told me how time moves so slowly there and she would count down the minutes till freedom. But when I’m there and the guy tells me its almost time to leave I’m just thinking wow that was fast. I guess time flies when you have a knife in your hand.
People sometimes think I’m a bit crazy, but really I’m harmless. Like when I’m with my friends it seems like every time I open my mouth and say anything they just have to most puzzled look on their faces like “what are you even talking about?” Sometimes my mind just wanders into the unknown corners of the universe and I just say something completely random. Just a couple weeks ago my friend pointed out to me that whenever I start a sentence with the words “So the other day I was thinking…” it’s not going to end with a rational thought of any importance.
Sometimes I growl at myself in the mirror. Like it’s not even intentional and I don’t realize I’m doing it. Then like five minutes goes by and I’m like wait what was I doing? My friend keeps telling me it’s not normal. I think she’s wrong. I don’t see anything wrong with it. But what do I know about normal?
So anyway, yeah since college started life has just been good. I really can’t complain about anything. I expected worse so everything just seems really relaxed so far.
