Nothings like falling asleep on the Wrong train in the wrong direction. I spent like 4 hours underground yesterday. Ended up in the Bottom of Brooklyn. Wow I'm tight.
No, I'm not back. I'm still in Russia, staying over one of my mom's friend's house. It's pretty nice here, the house, I mean. Now that I know their computer works well, I might be on at night or in the mornings.

I said welcome back in the Alston thing, and you're not back..oh, so what did you get me?
I got my first job interview tomorrow for a grocery store... do you guys have any tips? Or is it just no big deal?
I have to say, Russia is weird. There are plenty of beautiful areas here, but majority of Saint Petersburg is just disgusting. The roads, the cars, and the buildings are just awful to look at. The buildings where the average person would live, are horrible-looking from the outside. It's like the country was hosting a war, 2 weeks ago. However, for the most part, the interior of these houses are nice, since the owners actually care how they live. Like I said, certain areas are beautiful, so I did manage to get some nice photos. I'll upload them when I'm back in New York.
I hate my spanish class....today for the first time since I've been in college I felt like a complete dumbass.........my el professor asked me to go to the board and right a sentence in spanish...keep in mind that the last time I took spanish was about a year and a half go and I barely got by in that, because the last time I took it before then was when I was a sophmore in highschool...so to make a long story short I struggled to even write one sentence and I stood up in front of the entire class looking like an idiot......and I still have 2 more semesters of this **** after this semester....
I love my schedule for this year, alot of my friends are in each of my classes. We start September 5.
If you don't have classes with your friends, even better. You'll make new friends on top of the friends you already have.

When they ask what you bring or whatever say your personable, friendly, you can give customer service, etc. When managers of grocery stores and whatnot are hiring people they really don't know what they're getting, so if one says they're personable means good customer service and at least they'll have that as a known. Also say you work hard. And flexible schedule probably helps, initially you should say you'll take some ****** shifts but after a while you can wane yourself out of those. And you have to say you'll work on weekends and holidays (though I'll tell you right now as a newb they'll give you the ****** holidays and the full timers take the holidays that no one cares about but you get pay and a half). They'll want you to work weekends I'm sure since the full timers will work on weekdays and want weekends off. And wear some nice clothes, be clean shaven, etc. They want to see that you want to work at their store, a guy who looks like he doesn't give a fugg during the job interview isn't something they're looking for.
It sucks that some of you guys don't have classes with your friends. My schedule this year is pretty tight. With the exception of my English class, I have at least one or two friends. I also have a really hot chick in my Spanish class, but unfortunately the stupid teacher made a seating chart which has me sitting all the way in the back of the room, and her all the way in the front of the room. Oh well

I'm movin out in 5 days now. I bought all of the stuff I need already, and have my laptop and everything; I just need to start packing. I probably won't post as frequently once I'm gone, but I'll be sure to come back sometime during the frosh week and just post about how it is or whatever. Am I the only one who finds Kiera Knightley sexy? She doesn't have much of a body though (really tall and model-like) but there's something sexy about her.
she is absolutely beautiful. gaining 20 lbs won't hurt, but my god, she has one of the prettiest faces i've ever seen.

Damn, I swear I'm just falling asleep lately in front of the computer from being so damn stressed out. Anyway, has anyone played this game Tourist Trophy yet? I think it is pretty bad ass so far. I rented it yesterday.
