Working for the Weekend

Hello Everybody! Its Friday! Let the weekend begin! I know you've been patiently waiting for news on Day#2 of Classes.
I have mixed feelings about it really. The morning classes were a total success in my book because I talked to several people throughout my morning classes, and even had someone to talk with on the way to my car after class. In between my first and second class I had to opportunity to get a free lunch thanks to TRIO.
Trio is like government aid, except they don't give money, they let you  borrow books so you don't have to buy them. Their only conditions are that you have to qualify by yearly income(Under 55,000), or be a [1st] Generation College Student. I qualify both ways, because both of my parents graduated with Associate's degrees and their definition of qualification is Bachelor's Degree. 
After leaving classes for the day, I had a hectic but good day at work, until I realized I was running late and had to run out so I wouldn't be late for my evening class. This is the part of the day when I wonder why I even bother coming to class. My teacher is not ideal. I think she was wondering why she was even there too. I kind of felt sorry for her until she started talking about Darwinism and Evolution. Now, I'm a Christian, and I personally believe that in some ways, evolution could make sense BUT I do not believe though, that I evolved from bacteria. I 'm not going to sit around and bash other peoples thoughts though, so I'm just going to say that I think God created the Earth and all of its creatures, and I think that its completely possible that God's "days" as described in the Bible, last possibly "thousands" of years in human time. I'll just leave it like that. What really made me mad though was sitting in class with an annoying guy who came in late, and spent the whole class on facebook while he was "typing notes" on his laptop. I wanted to beat him senseless when he asked about a lab schedule she had just went over with us. Luckily for him I had a friend who got me out before I could damage him. 
My evening did get better though, because I spent a good hour hanging out with my friend after class.

As for the week as a whole, I'm giving it a total A+ because other thank Biology, I like my classes/teachers and I'm being social. Work is going fantastic too! Now its just time to enjoy the calm and free time I have over the weekend. I'm thinking I may go to the mall with my mama and then scrapbook a little later.
Have a great weekend and we'll chat again later!

To the Readers:

Hello everyone! Welcome to Collegely!
My name is Kelci Carter, and I am 19 year old in Small Town, USA. I live in a family of four plus a weinerdog named Scooter. I am a college student, and I work the max hours a part time employee is allowed at a locally owned bank in the accounting department.
Just so you know a little about me, I have brown hair and hazel eyes. I stand just over an amazing height of five feet. And just in case you were wondering, my bra size is a 34A. I'm really just your average young adult. My favorite colors are pink & turquoise. I'm a music junkie. Some of my favorite bands are Shinedown, 3DoorsDown, and Halestorm, but I'm in love with Keith Urban, and I'd probably kill to get to see AC/DC in concert. Oh, was that not average? Well... I also love Usher, Train, Bruno Marz, Maroon 5, and Carly Rae Jepsen. I like a lot of modern country music too though.
I drive the prettiest little mustang. She is a fox body LX convertible. The top and interior are both factory black, and the car itself is a turqoise color by the name of Reef Blue. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect car. I'll say more on that later.
I'm a bit of an artist. Ive liked to draw since I was small, I even took classes with a pro for a little while. I read alot of manga, and I watch a little anime, so I really enjoy drawing in that style. I read alot of books. I find that I really enjoy most of the amazon books that I find for $0.99 or a little more. I highly recomend trying them. I'm a craft-a-holic. I love to take pictures and then scrapbook them. I make wreaths, and flower hair pins/magnets. I can also sew.
I am in fact single at the moment, I am talking to someone, but I have been single for a year after ending a 3-year relationship with a guy I dated all the way through my highschool years. Typical girl of me, I'm a total romantic. I have several close friends, one who stayed home for college as well, and the other two both went off for school. Last year was tough of us, but this year we are all determined to do better at staying in touch.
So as you can see, I'm alot like you. I may have differend hobbies and interests, but the premises is alot the same. This blog is for me, but also for you because I know how it feels to think you are walking through something alone. Its really hard and kinda scary to be thrown out of highschool to be all on your own, and though our situations are probably slightly different, I hope this blog will help someone with similar situations as me. I look forward to talking with everyone again soon!
Your average 19-year-old
