I'll be the first to admit that I am directionally challenged, and I don't know my roads very well. I hate driving (terrified of it), so I never did properly learn how to get to and from places. I had to take Audrey to school before going to my school, and I wasn't exactly sure how to get from her school to mine, so I was like... totally lost for a bit LOL ;___; Her school is kind of in this area that's just... dirt roads and fields, so nothing was looking familiar and I was like, "fuckfuckfuck I took a wrong turn and oh god what do I do, is this the street I need to get on, I DUNNOOOO..."
But I eventually venture back into familiar territory and am welcomed by ~*morning traffic*~! which is never terrific anyway, but the traffic was just fucking stopped this morning. I live in Kansas; we do not HAVE traffic problems here. So I'm like, "You've got to be kidding me, I'm already running late, what is the deal..." and after sitting there for like an eternity, the traffic slowly starts moving. Turns out there was an accident further ahead (just my luck) so YAY that sucked.
I FINALLY get to school, and I knew the parking lots were going to be packed (they always are), but I hadn't expected it to be NEARLY as bad as it was. oh my god. I'm panicking, because I know I'm already late, and I have NO FUCKING CLUE where my building is so I'm not even sure what parking lot to park in, but I wind up having zero choice in the matter and am forced to park at the other end of the universe because there are literally no parking spots ANYWHERE.
But I'm like, "OKAY, this isn't THAT bad, I knew the parking situation was going to be awful, so don't freak out let's just find the damn building where my class is and everything will be fine." So I start wandering around, and I've never really been in this area of my campus, because I've always been in the art buildings and this is an English class I'm going to, and absolutely nothing looks familiar. I'm tooootally freaking out because I'm already so late, so I'm trying to find someone to ask for help, but everyone I see looks just as lost as I am, so I decide against that and gawk at a map for a while, but that doesn't help either because I happen to be mildly map-retarded and there was no cute little "★YOU ARE HERE!★" mark on the map I was looking at (what the fuck? THANKS THAT'S HELPFUL) so I resort to blindly wandering around for a while until I MIRACULOUSLY just stumble into the fucking building. (I know a lot of you guys who read my blog aren't particularly religious, but I swear it was by the grace of God that I found the frickin building because I was praying so hard for help and suddenly my feet were just moving on their own and BAM there's the building. THANK YOU, GOD. YOU'RE A PRETTY COOL DUDE.)
Anywayyy... so I walk into the building and my classroom is RIGHT there, like right when you walk in the door, there it is, so I was like OH MY GOD YES I DON'T HAVE TO WANDER AROUND LOST ANYMORE!!!
And that's how I finally arrived at my class. Severely late. LOL ;___; I'VE NEVER HAD SO MUCH TROUBLE WITH BEING LOST IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. Fuck, I am so glad I did not wear heels. My feet would be DEAD.
As for school itself, I only had one class today (English) and it went alright. Somehow I wasn't the latest student, so that made me feel a bit better. And I like my professor; she's funny. She seems like the type who will grade really hard though, so... oh man I hope I do okay LOL. We had to write an essay already (ON THE FIRST DAY, UGHHH) but I think mine turned out decent, so woohoooo.
I don't have one of the books I need because I wasn't able to order it until yesterday, so I hope that gets here really soon... I have homework involving that book and it's due Tuesday. Poop :(
ANYWAY LOL holy crap I am a master of rambling. hi have a pierrot WIP.

You know something...your first day sounds EXACTLY like mine. Not only did I wander around lost for a while, I managed to take the wrong subway train home and ended up 3 HOURS late in returning home. I almost broke down from being so tired D:. Oh and I did a lot of praying too "Please God let me go home...Let me go home...LET ME GO HOME NOW!!" Hopefully things will sort themselves out as you settle back into being in class 8D!
Aw bb I'm sorry D:
Now that I actually know where I'm going, things should go a lot more smoothly hahaha.
