Aiyiyi... what a past few days. First off, I found out why I was "denied" admission to SFSU-- because they never got a transcript from CCSF saying that I made up that one failed semester of Japanese. And I went to CCSF today to get the transcript, which was a process in and of itself, since you have to request transcripts before you actually NEED them! Processing is 2 WEEKS! But they have a rush service which should have my two requested transcripts ready by Wednesday-- after which I will RUSH to SFSU and make sure this thing is cleared up. SFSU better not give me any guff about it either, because they SAID they would notify me if I was missing any papers. I mean yeesh, it SAID on my papers that I took a college course in Japanese, why would they NOT think to ask for a transcript? And before you go and say it's my responsibility, I thought I'd arranged for CCSF to send SFSU a copy of my class transcript. Geez, it's only ONE stinkin' class for the summer semester!
On the bright side, I took care of the bank and the direct deposit-- but the $20 I need to pay for my transcripts will have to come from some place other than my new checking account, since it will take 2 weeks for them to send me checks (so I can attach a blank one to give to my employers) and my new debit card. :P And they pestered me about all these random things that I really shouldn't know-- a reference who doesn't live with you!? Come on, people, I'm 18 years old and still living with my mom, who am I going to know (an adult that I don't live with) that will establish that I am reliable and have good credit? My dad was my first thought, but then, he doesn't exactly have good credit himself... >_> So tada, Joe! Thankfully he was okay with that, so I'm glad, everything's smoothed out-- for now. I have to wait another two weeks once I turn in the direct deposit paperwork to my work until I actually GET direct deposit in there. Feh.
And tonight I get to go bowling! Since I'm going to have to ask mom for the $20 for the transcripts next week, I figured it'd be best if I did an immediate withdrawl after setting up my account, and I got $20 tonight for bowling and such, so I won't have to nag mom. ;)
I decided not to go to Macy's-- after all, I didn't go to state, and taking the M from SFSU would have been my primary means of getting downtown... short of going on the K. But by then, I was tired, mostly broke, and bogged down by the weather. I eagerly await a bowling-fest so I can bowl, eat, and have krispy kremes! ;) Yum, raspberry filled! My favorite!
*sigh* And I just went to Brooke and Michael's wedding page site, with all the photos taken by the professional photographers... I know I arrived to the wedding right before the ceremony started, but I'm not even in ANY of the candid reception shots! It's like I wasn't there at all! :P Then again, I don't see any pictures of Joyce, Sally, David, or the other guy cousins... But I still wanted a nice picture of me in the dress the first time I wore it, looking all nice and all. Phooey, I knew I should have brought a camera! ;_; Take heed-- it ALWAYS pays to be prepared in advance!
:P I think Mom's got something seriously wrong with her head. Isn't one of the side-effects of smoking pot losing your memory? Because she always asks me the same question every few minutes, totally forgetting that I've answered it a MULTITUDE of times-- and I get more irritated each time. It's not like her excuses of "not hearing" or "misunderstanding" fly anymore. And she's not senile, nor does she have a "too-full head." -.- This pisses me off.
Bah, on the somewhat bright side, I'm thinking of starting another column on my site, "Fashion Police," since I encounter so many dastardly fashions every day-- and here I am, the heart of San Francisco, one of many fashion capitals! Plus it'll give me an excuse to shoot pictures like a tourist! :) Also, I've been thinking about working on "Perfect World" again, since I remember some great reviewers, my great ideas, and of course, my muse is back from Tahiti, so I better exploit (*cough*) her while I can. :D
So I'm going to get back to that, at least until Joe gets here. Man, I do NOT want to be here tonight... Being around Mom is like asking to have a short circuit. X_X
