October 17th

I woke up at 7:30am which is earlier than I usually wake up as I had to get ready for work. This time, I had to work in the Fairfield County Fair in Lancaster, Ohio. I showered and got ready before heading out. Once I left, I realized that I had forgot to bring my water battle. I pulled a U-turn and drove back to campus. I got back to my dorm building and retrieved my water bottle before leaving again. The drive was about an hour long and I have been doing it all week. I decided that I wanted to listen to all of Kid Cudi’s albums in order, so I continued doing so while on the drive. The drive itself was rather uneventful. It consists of going west on Route 70 for about 30 to 40 miles, then taking an exit onto Route 37 South for about 15 miles. Since I arrived before the start of the fair, it was fairly easy to find parking close to where I was going to be working. This week, I have been working in the fish fry trailer. We battered and fried fish, oysters, clams, and shrimp. We also had to cut and blanch French fries to get them ready to fry as everything we did was by order. I had to meet some new coworkers as the old ones got fired for stealing. One of them stole $300 from our boss while the other one covered for him. They both ended up getting caught and fired. This was greatly upsetting to me as I had been driving over an hour to work my hardest while these two just sat around and did nothing besides lie and steal. They were from the area so at one point, they both came up to the trailer to get food and it took everything in my power to not tell them to leave immediately. They ordered their food and left without paying or receiving their food. They simply wanted to waste our time, however I got to eat the food that they ordered so that was nice. After this, my shift was rather uneventful. It consisted of me sitting as cashier for most of the shift. All I had to do was collect money and keep track of orders for 14 hours. After the fair closed at 10pm, we had to pack up the trailers and get them ready to be transported to the next fair. After we finished that, I got paid and drove home to get some rest.

     September 15 th , I woke up at 8:30 as I do every day, I then proceeded to shower and get ready for class. During my shower, a bee flew into the bathroom through the window and into my shower stall. I proceeded to panic and try and splash water at it to go away and to my luck, it eventually did. I had Arts/Humanities West Culture first and we began to go over Roman Architecture. We studied the Coliseum and Pont du Gard. We also went over how Roman’s revolutionized the art of building buildings. After that class, I went to Theories of Personalities, and we continued to go over Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic theories. We also began to go over his daughter, Anna Freud. After that, I went back to my dorm room with my friend Baca and noticed something missing from the corner of my eye, it was my safe full of money. I proceeded to panic and tear apart my room to no avail. My safe was gone and so was my money. After screaming for a little bit, I decided I should call campus police. They

November 1 st , Today, I woke up at 5:00am which is super, super early for me. I did this because I had a very difficult exam in my Theories of Personality class. I began studying around 5:15am after letting myself wake up a bit. I studied by writing down details of everything listed on the study guide. I got all this information by going through PowerPoints and the textbook. I studied for about 3 hours before showering, brushing my teeth, and getting ready. Once I was ready, I began to study even more and was talking over my notes aloud with myself. I ended up skipping my 10am class for the sake of having an extra hour to prepare for the exam. I went over to the Ulster house and helped my classmate study. I let him read over my notes and I also read them out loud to him, which helped me memorize the information more efficiently. This test was over Carl Jung, Karen Horney, and Erik Erikson and their individual theories and how they could be applied. I had drunk two cups of coffee so st

November 6th

  Today I woke up at 6:30am. This is very early for me but I had to get ready to drive home by 7:30am. I had work in Wooster, Ohio, which is where I live outside of school. I got up, showered, shaved, and brushed my teeth. Once I was done with that, I got dressed and packed my bag with warm clothes as the forecast said it would be 28 degrees Fahrenheit. Once I was packed, I went out to my car and got ready to leave. However, I couldn’t leave when I wanted to due to the fact that it had rained the night before and the water had frozen onto my windows. I had to blast my cars heat while simultaneously using an ice scraper to clear my windows so that I could see and drive safely. This ended up taking me about 10 to 15 minutes. Once my windows were sufficiently cleared, I got back in and began my drive to Wooster. I took Route 70 for about 10 miles before merging onto Route 77 for another 44 miles. Once I reached Dover, Ohio, I merged onto State Route 250 and continued on that path for 30 M
