And just reminding you, this is my FIRST WEEK OF CLASS! It can only get worse. Oh, and looking forward to the week after that, I have to wear a swimsuit to class and bring my toothpaste and toothbrush? I think I'm scared because that can only mean that I will probably have to sit in water IN MY BATHING SUIT while someone learns how to bathe me, and brush my teeth of which I will gag because I have a hard time not gagging when I brush my own teeth...
What have I gotten myself into?
How am I going to be able to hold down a job and do all this while still trying to have somewhat of a life? NOT POSSIBLE! Come on Russell, get that damn high paying job so I can quit mine!
