Miss Halfway

Miss Samantha,

Monday was a better day. After last week, I needed to catch a break. It was taking a toll on my mood, my concentration, and my actions. I didn't even go out for my roommates birthday. It was a difficult time.

Luckily, I have a dad who is wonderful and thinks the same way I do. He was the only one who knew what to say.

On Monday, I got back an assignment from a class that I dread. I thought I bombed it because, frankly, I just don't care about that class and was pretty sure I didn't put very much effort into it. Turns out I lost one mark only... I got a 99!

Later that day, while I was working, I had a client who I spent 45 minutes with answering questions and touring him around the facilities. He came back about an hour after I was finished with a gift card to one of my favourite restaurants! It was so generous - it was part of my job!

After work, I got a phone call from a school in the US who is interested in my attending their grad program! I mean, I still have a lot of school left here in Canada and that's not something I would need to decide until the end of the summer - but holy frick! I was so excited! (But, the chances are that I will stay in the cold land we call Canada.)

The week started out great! My roommates have left for the week and I now have the house to myself to catch up on so much work!

Missing you as usual, update me when you get a chance in your busy day!

xoxo Carrie

Smack That

Dearest Samantha,

Congrats on almost being done work. On to the next chapter... :)
I just started my new job here in the city yesterday. It was a long and crazy day and today was no better. Today gave me the opportunity to see a number of new, young arrivals to the city to begin their post-secondary journey. One of the things I couldn't help but notice is the way young girls dress and present themselves. I was appauled. The skank-factor just increased by 20 fold here. Ridiculous.

There were so many unclassy and slutty-looking girls, that I couldn't help but stare. I mean, boobs hanging out, short shorts so short I could see their bums, and long, dry blonde hair backcombed so much that it looked like they had 4 Bump-Its in it. (Side note: I want one of those for Christmas... a ShamWow and SlapChopper, too). Why is this the new "attractive" norm? I think that they look like dirty, unkempt Barbie dolls. The worst part is that they all have huge heads because guys give them attention for looking this way. Guaranteed that at least 45% of the Dirt Barbies got laid tonight, too. Welcome to college.

I've had enough of that shit.

What about the girls with short, cute brown hair, who fully clothe themselves, while still maintaining a secret and mysterious sex appeal? I, for one (and I will put money on you being in the same boat), like wearing my clothes and would rather only expose my breasts and genitals to a guy who deserves it. I wish young girls realized that the boys that are going to want you in the future and will stick around long-term aren't just trying to fuck you during your first week of college and are the ones who don't really want you to have slept with your entire campus before you graduate in four years. Maybe I'm the only one who shares these views. Seriously, have your fun this week, but then its time to grow up. And if I see you at the bar in your no-clothes outfits, I'm going to punch you in the face. Have some respect for yourself, please.

I also ran into an old fling today. He looks amazing still and I was intriguingly attracted to him. He is one of those people that I think I will always crush on - sorry FP. We will call him B-Man, because he is a business man and I'm sure there will be more stories to follow about him and his "crew." I will for sure see him Thursday, and FP visits Friday... fun is sure to ensue.

On another note, I got a new bed yesterday and I'm breaking it in this weekend! :)

Miss you incredibly,
-Crazy City Carrie
