Dear Neil,
I just wrote a post, and then it disappeared. Maybe that is for the better; it was a WEIRD post. Maybe a lot of my posts are WERID, but this one… well… okay it was not that weird, but… this one is advancing towards being too weird.
Anyway, when I was writing my lost post there was no tagging option, so maybe the page I was writing with was bugged, because the post has disappeared.
So, pardon me today, Neil
Love, Pam
Dear Neil,
I am currently shopping for text books on HACC’s bookstore’s website. Why has no one ever told me about this web site before? I am thinking that there is some kind of catch to it. Like, oh you can pick out your texts books on line, but you have to come to the campus book store and find the books on the shelves like everyone else. Last semester I went to the book store wrote down the list of my books with all the information vital to finding them on line; then Dad helped me find some cheaper, and I bought some at the book store. I do not think Dad wants to do that this year. Which begs the question: should I ask Mom or Dad for a blank check to pay for the books, or should I (because I think I could) pay for my books myself.
I estimate that if I buy my books used from HACC the total will be a bit over two hundred dollars, which I regret to admit I can pay. But just because I can pay for my text books, Neil, does not mean I can practically afford them. Hmm, okay, I have decided that I am going to buy my books from the book store physically. Just because I feel like it. I also think I am going to pay for them with my checking account. Then maybe Mom and Dad will reimburse me half, or something.
I feel like I should by my text books as soon as possible so I can get cheaper, used books. And, also so my summer ends sooner. I have nothing to do before work except shower. If I get to the campus at two thrity, depending on how long it takes me to shower… I will have forty five minutes to buy, buy, buy because I need to leave campus at three fifteen in order to get to work on time. Shoot I should have done my lanudry yesterday.
Oh, well… So far I have looked up two of my classes on the on line book store catalog and the used books are costing me one hundred and twenty four dollars and fifty cents. I hope the total for my four classes will not sky rocket passed two hundred and fifty dollars. I just talked to my friend and the total for her five text books will be more than three hundred dollars.
Yikes my math book just more than doubled my text book total.
Oh, grr! You stupid Health text book! Why do you have to be so expensive!?!
I will update you late, Neil

Hey Neil,
I start class in eighteen days. I almost forget what it is like to be in class. I feel rather directionless without a set schedule for my mornings. Summer life is a life without perspective. Summer life is a life of eating for the heck of doing something with my hands. Ugh, that is so terrible. I am bored again. This boredom makes me feel like I am suspended in a swimming pool of jello. I can move forward to the fall semester soon enough, the calendar is in charge of how quickly I progress towards the rest of my life.
I should be enjoying my summer. But I do not want a summer of suspended jello swimming. Or maybe my boredom is making me lose perspective, or maybe I am really really bored. Ugh, this is painful. I do not know what to do with my day; my plans depend on whether other people already have checked out the DVD I want for the week. I have not opened a book in days; I have not read more than a chapter of a book in two weeks! Why am I so lethargic? And it is not that I do not want to make an effort to read a book; I do not think I can read if I want to.
The jello is stopping my brain from getting up and doing… doing anything. Maybe class on the eighteenth will melt the jello, or eat up the jello. I really doubt I will be able to maintain my kick ass academics with jello in my brain. Maybe all the television shows on DVD put the jello in my brain. But you know the upside of borrowing things from the library every day? Exercise. DVDs from the library are a great reason for me to take a walk everyday. If I walk fast enough I can get there in five minutes. I know that ten minutes of elevated heartbeat a day is not enough, but it is better than nothing. Plus I get aerobics at work. That’s another thing.
I think my work schedule is helping the jello. Dinner time is an inconvenient time to work for social purposes; all my friends work during the day. So I am alone all day and jello is making me fat and my brain lazy. And my boredom is making me complain. Maybe I should take more walks.
Don’t Forget to be Awesome,
Love Pam
