Orientation.

My day was ok.

I had uni orientation, and I was kind of nervous but doing alright. That was until I went to catch my second train and it never came. Instead of 9:25am it came at 9:47am, making me miss my bus, so I had to catch a later one, and ended up arriving half an hour late altogether.

When I was waiting for the second train I was so upset that I was almost crying. I know that sounds insane, but for some reason I was finding the whole day overwhelming enough without being late. But I pulled it together, aided my some messages from Joel, and went anyway.

I got there like half an hour late, but yeah it's uni and no one really cares, because it's you who's missing out on stuff, they're just there to teach and tell you.

I was also dreading the two hour lunch break, since it seemed like it was going to be such a long time of doing nothing, but I got talking to a girl in the bbq line and we hung around with each other for the rest of the day. I actually found it really easy to say hi to people and talk to them, which isn't normally like me.

But I'd have to admit that most of the people there seemed to know everyone else, and it was a bit intimidating. But it turns out that Kristy [girl I met] is in group 2 and I'm in group 3, so we'll hardly be in any of the same classes or anything. I also got talking to a guy, whose name I managed to forget almost immediately, which is so awful, I think it was Tim though. He was nice, but also in group 2, so yeah.

It turned out better than I expected, but it's still going to take a while to get comfortable. The train is awful, it gives me headaches, and I have to catch it with all these school kids and bogans. Plus on the way home some stupid creepy man was trying to chat me up, by asking about the buttons on my bag.

"I love....i love....what does it say?"
"I love punk rock boys."
"Oh. Cool."
"So did anyone ever tell you, you look like Kylie Minogue?"
"*Hah* No."
"Well you remind me of her."


*heh*".

I look nothing like Kylie Minogue. At all.

So even though the batteries in my discman had run out, i put my earphones in anyway just so he wouldn't talk to me. Yes maybe i'm mean, but he was freaking me out. He kept staring at me and eh.

There are lots of cool looking people at uni, but I'm doubting I will ever end up knowing them. They're the kind of people I'd like to be friends with, but they're too intimidating to talk to.
