a whole day's/trip's worth of compalining!

WHOOO SPRING BREAK 2007! in ohio. whoo.
I had a whole schedule for yesterday morning because my ear-trianing midterm ended at noon & I had the shuttle was picking me up at 2. I had a lot of things to do in that 2 hour slot. The majority of those things I didn't have to do, but I'm killer at fitting things into a schedule.
First thing I wanted to do was return the ugly shirt from Forever XXI & get new pair of leggings & etc.
Yesterday I decided go shopping at H&M & ForeverXXI aka my best friends. I knew I had a voice lesson at 4.30, but thought I had pleeenty of time. So I have lotsa stuff in my arms, I look at my cell, and its 4.08. ehh, so I just decide to buy everything I have. & I made it to my voice lesson 2 min late. god, I'm amazing; I couldn't believe I wasn't more late.
When I got home, I tried on my purchases, and I loved everything. Again, I am amazing. Well this on shirt was a total miss. TOTAL MISS.
Since the store opened at 10, I was just going to return it before my midterm. So after doing ehhh on my midterm, I walked over to union square, pick out some things at FXXI, and go to the register to exchange it. The people at the register were all mmmyeah, our computers are down, so we can't do any exchange or anything at all really. do you have cash? if you don't, then our big store full of reasonably priced trendy clothes are worthless to you. I asked when they thought the computer would be fixed and they said mmmmmmtommorow? maybe? fuck this, I was so annoyed.
However, after the midterm, I went to an ATM & bought the leggings, b/c everything else was packed up & I didn't want to meet my parents back in Ohio w/o pants. What would they think?
Then I absolutely had to get my coffee&amuffin. & let me tell you, today was the best coffee&amuffin experience. I go in there, this one woman (who I like to think is the mother of the guys behind the counter) smiles and asks how I'm doing. I say great b/c she's talking to me like I'm a regular (which is my ultimate goal). One of the guys behind the counter smiles and tells me my order (b/c he knows it b/c I'm almost like a regular), and another one hands it to me and calls me sweety (not like creepy man sweety, like part of the family aw lisa hey sweety here's the best muffin in the whole glass case). When I pay for my muffin the woman behind the counter asks me about the weather. They love me, not as much as I love them, but its all good.
I came home & started to pack up. I changed into just leggings and a tank top so i could be aerodynamic comfortable. This was like, its too cold to be naked, so i'll sport this kind of outfit. Of course like 5 min later tiff & her boyfriend came in...super. So the really nice security guard called me down b/c someone was there for me. I just assumed it was Rel b/c who else would it be? It was the shuttle guy. an hour earlier. I started to freak out b/c there was no way I was going to be ready, but I told the guy that he was suppose to come at 1.50, no 12.50. So he was all oh my b my b & then he left.
An hour later, alex helped me bring my bags downstairs, and then I got into the shuttle from hell. It lasted like 50 minutes, but it was 48 minutes too long.
The first guy that gets in the car, and I could just tell he was an asshole. He called his wife on his cell phone & proceeded to recap his weekend. loudly. He was intown working on a business deal, and he would soon be the Anderson's (the vice president's) "right hand man." He said "right hand man" about 82 times. Then he kept joking about getting an apartment in the city blaahh blahh. He thought he was hot shit, but honestly, if he was, he wouldn't be in a $15 shuttle w/ up to 9 people. Where's your town car? thats what I thought. bitch.
After picking up 3 other people, we stopped at a hotel and literally spent 20 minutes waiting outside for the people we were picking up. Note: I really hate when people say "literally" & they don't mean it at all. Like my math teacher once said "I literally bit off more than I can chew." "Literally, freeman?" See, it sounds ridiculous when one reflects on this. I say this just to make it clear that these 20 minutes were actually 20 minutes. I was already in a bad mood b/c I was leaving the city & it was raining, so when the 4 girls who took 1/2 of my life to get onto the shuttle, I already hate them. I could tell that they were from out of town. Like, not even Cincinnati, maybe like 40 miles east of Cincinnati. They had on really disgusting jeans & these really huge sweatshirts on. The girl who got into the front had this coach bag & it was atrocious. Like the fabric was all bunched everywhere, and it looked so cheep and tacky. What is she going to say when she goes home: "Hey Y'all! Look at this neat bag I got in New York City" (The "New York City" was suppose to be said like the guys from the salsa commercial)*
When I got to LaGuardia, I had 2 hours until my plane boarded. sweet. So I got a green tea & sat down with my handy-dandy sudoku book. I finished about 6 of the medium ones, and then found out that my plane was delayed 2 hours. & then I waited a bit longer (2 more hours).
When I got on my flight there was one guy in my seat, my aisle/window single seat. I was really polite and told him that was my seat, and he said to me "Oh, I thought this was seat C." I replied "oh, no, its seat A," "Oh...then I guess I have to move." I wanted to be a douche and be like YEAH, I GUESS YOU DO.
a million annoying people and hours later, I finally got home to Ohio :)

*I'm well aware that these observations are very snobby & shallow...but I was in a bad mood & when I caught myself thinking these things I started to laugh b/c it was just so stuck up & ridiculous.
