More time keeping... [13 Dec 2007|02:15pm]
[ mood | annoyed ]

One day, 18 hours, and 48 minutes left as I type this sentence.

Yes, I know I'm being obsessive over the time keeping.
But it's sort of hard not to be obsessive when you can't even share the excitement.

Me: "My interviews for the foreign exchange program are this Saturday!"
Friend: "... What's a foreign exchange program?" (I've explained this several times to this friend.)
Me: "If I get accepted I'd go live in a foreign country for a year with a host family."
Friend: "So you're going to stay in a hotel in Japan for, like, a year?!"
Me: "... Host. Family."
Friend: "..."
Me: "I'd live with host families for the year."
Friend: "Ugh, so you'll be living with some strangers?"
Me: "Yeah."
Friend: "Aren't you scared that they'll, like, rape you or something?"

Yeah... Not all of the conversations are that amusing, but just frusterating because nobody here knows what a foreign exchange program is. Gotta love Kansas.

Two Post In One Day, Amazing! [13 Dec 2007|05:21pm]

So, yeah. Second post. This one a bit more rant-y than the last. There are two separate rants, too! One about my day, and one that's exchange-related. I divided them up into two different cuts for you. Haha.

 
That is the end of my "Shelbi's life IS somewhat normal!" rant. Now for the exchange rant.


And... The end, I guess? Haha.
