So I had to wake up this morning at 6:10 and I got ready and stuff and my dad made us leave at 6:50 and I couldn't even see if there was a making the video for "This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race" and I was sad. A bird's poop landed on my dad's shoulder while we were waiting for the trolley and that sucked. x_x
The trolley ride was boring and when we got to the downtown transit center, this old homeless dude who was sitting on the seat across the aisle from me ((I was studiously trying to avoid his gaze the whole time)) was like, "Excuse me, miss" and I turned to look at him 'cause it's rude not to, since he was talking to me, and then he asks me for money 'cause he apparently hadn't eaten in two days or something. I said no and I felt bad and yeah. I dunno. That sucked. Why am I always lured into those things? It's like, these people could go to everyone else, but they specifically target me. Do I look nice and easy to get stuff from or something? =/
Got off the trolley and had to walk the few blocks to the Hall of Justice. Blah! It was cold. =(
So I was in there and was just sitting around and orientation was suppose to start at 8:00, but we didn't actually start until 8:10, and even then, they were just telling us what we needed to fill out and shit and then turn in our summons and it was 8:25 after that shit was done and they said break until 9:10. x_x So I forgot my awesomely new book at home, so I was bored to death and it sucked and yeah. I was sitting there and then at 9:10, they say that "in a few minutes, we will exchange the bus/trolley vouchers for tickets" or whatever and then finally at 9:15-ish, they said we could, so stood up, waited and turned that in, got my tickets, and then went to sit back down. And nothing happened. Along with nothing. Did I mention the nothing? Oh yeah, there was more nothing. And then it was 10:15 and they make the announcement that, HEY! We get a 20 minute break! Like, because we were SO doing something between getting our trolley tickets and then, right? x_x So sat around some more and nothingness, of course. 20 minutes pass, no more memos over the speakers. 'Twas very boring. Was sitting and doing nothing and envying all the people with their books and laptops and stuff to do. x_x
11:30 comes and the lady on the speaker says we have a lunch break and have to stay for the afternoon. Much anger. Lunch break was until 1:30. Two full hours to do nothing. How fabulously fun. x_x So yeah..
Walked over to Horton Plaza and walked around.. At a Big Mac and then walked around some more. It was pretty boring. Later on, bought a lemonade from Hot Dog on a Stick and then walked around and had to go to Hot Topic to get two shirts for
aznearthdragon to give to Kevin as her gift. x_x BLEH! After that, had to go back to the Hall of Justice and then sat around some more. They called about 30-ish people around 1:45 and then nothing. Around 2:30, they said that they were waiting to hear from one more courthouse, then we were done. x_x So waited and waited and then around 3:30, they called another round of names and everyone thought we'd be done, but no, we were not 'cause they didn't say anything about the rest of us. x_x
So finally, around 3:50 or something later, we were all dismissed and we left. Walked to the trolley station and waited for the trolley, then went on and yeah..
aznearthdragon said the Fall Out Boy video was weird 'cause I was talking to her and was waiting for it. =/ Then finally, I got into my station and went across the street to the car and went home.
Watched the Fall Out Boy video online 'cause I needed to know what it was like. XP It's very.. interesting, lol. XP But yeah, I love the facial expressions Patrick makes 'cause it's just so cute. XP And the whole video was great, lol. XP
