New Semester

Hello! I've been back at school now for a few weeks, now, and nothing particularly exciting is happening. I've started new classes and we've gotten a few feet less of snow than Pennsylvania has, but I will still find some things to tell you about.

First of all, I recently had a few car troubles lately. It turns out that my front coil springs have both broken and need to be replaced. So, I brought the car to a mechanic and, upon leaving, realized that this problem is under recall for my car. Then, I went back to the mechanic and told them, but decided to try to get the dealership to tow my car since both springs are broken and I didn't want to break down on the way to the dealership. Luckily, they will tow my car and replace both springs, but they have to get a new shipment of springs before they can repair it. I'm not sure how long it will take for the parts to come in, but I guess I'm not that worried because I wouldn't want to be driving my car in the state it's in anyway.

Another mildly interesting story is that I recently got a job as a notetaker at school. The job isn't very interesting, but the process of me actually getting to work is. It turns out that in order to work for the school, I have to have some special paperwork done. However, in order to do the paperwork, I needed my passport. I didn't bring my passport, but I had copies, which weren't accepted. So, my parents decided, "hey! We'll just overnight ship it to you and then you can get your paperwork in time for the next training session." Well, that was all fine and dandy except that instead of my passport coming overnight, it came over a week late. Why, you might ask? Well, because obviously, when overnight shipping an important document from Pennsylvania to New York, it has to be shipped through SAN DIEGO. So that was frustrating.

In other news, I'm a Canadian citizen now! It's official! So even though Canada, a country, accepted a copy of my identification, my school would not. I'm a little salty, if you couldn't tell. Well, that's all I have to say right now. Hopefully next time I will have more to say. Enjoy all your snow down there!
