our apartment is so ghetto

how are people able to talk through the stalls in a public bathroom? and not just a simple question and answer, but full on conversations. anyway..

Dear Ms. CG,

Please do not make me wait anymore to see what type of NEW, FUN, and EXCITING gum you recently bought. Not only have you boggled my mind with all the different possibilities of what this potential gum may be, you have also stopped me from working on my teaching plan that's due soon. If I don't finish my teaching plan then I will fail clinical! If I fail clinical then I will have to repeat Adult Community again. If I have to repeat that class, omgosh, who knows what will happen. THINGS WILL GO CRAAAAAAAAZY and I will bring you down with me! And all because you have me desperately wanting to know what type of gum you bought. I know you are nice so please tell me what type of gum you bought. =) Please oh please, I almost beg you.

Sincerely,
Your Biggest Gum Fan

i love making lists. love love love. i make lists for many things: things to do for the day, week and future, things to buy, things to fix, things to do in my spare time, books to read, and so forth. here is another list: our apartment is so ghetto.

1) the fire alarm doesn't work (we know this because it use to beep at us all the time. andy says that it's a warning to let us know it's low on battery, but we don't care to change it)

2) the bathroom switch flips down to turn on the light and up to turn off the light

3) we only have duck tape to hang everything up, so you already know that makes everything look ghetto

4) cracks are everywhere on the walls and floor..

5) the door to jenny and my room does not close all the way

6) neither does our closet

7) the apt door has four huge dead bolts but only one works. of course it has to be the lowest one and you have to squat to lock/unlock that one

8) the floor creaks where ever you step. it's inevitable

9) our floor is slanted. at this very moment my chair is rolling away from my desk but jenny has it even worse

10) oh and the elevator looks like it'll swallow you and bring you to hell

it has been quite the experience, living here. we've already blown a fuse x3 and all in the same night! but this place will always be better than douglass park. why? because there are no mice! but then again, i've only been here for a month..

on a different topic, mcdonalds is playing the monopoly game again! who wants to join forces with jenny and me? come on, we will dominate!
