My Car/Last night

I love my car.

I've had it for lets see...4 months? Jeeze, it seems like i've had it WAY longer.


^That's my car (and some houses on my street). My 2009 Toyota Corolla S. I'm so proud of it. :-)

I actually need to wash it today. It's pretty dirty. And vacuum too. I hate having those little pebbles all on the mat. I think I have car OCD or something. It always needs to be clean.

Last night was interesting. My friend and I hung out. Well, my friend and I have somewhat of a "history". A whole lotta junk happened 2 years ago and well, now we're pretty good friends despite all of it. (I know...i'm stupid. I'm WAY too forgiving). Well, last night was fun and all, but when he brought me home, all's I can say is: awkward. He said that he was "conflicted" and I was just like, "Please, don't be. I don't want what happened 2 years ago to happen again." ALL IN ALL, it was bad. And so now, i'm not going to talk to him, much. BECAUSE, I refuse to go through what happened 2 years ago ALL OVER AGAIN.

Well, I think i'm gonna go wash my car now.

Friday's

Today is Friday.
The last Friday before i'm back in school.

Today's weather is also very crappy. I woke up around 9 and wanted to go for a nice walk, but I looked outside and the ground was all wet. So I thought, I'll wait a little bit and see if it clears up. Well I did, but unfortunately, wet and a bit cool turned into humid and 84 degrees. Which is sad because I really wanted to walk but I really hate when it's hot out. So I guess i'll do it tonight with my Mom.

My friends coming over in a little bit and we're going to try and find college scholarships. I can't believe how expensive some of these colleges are. I'm gonna be in dept my whole life! Hopefully we can find some scholarships and apply and hopefully win and get money. That would be just lovely.













That's totally me right now because I start school on Wednesday. That means lots of studying, homework, and tests. I'm really not happy about that. My first semester shouldn't be all that hard though. Here's my schedule. Bolds my first semester classes and italics are my second.

1. Altern. Jewelry
Government
2. Nutrition-Foods 1
College Writing
3. Western Civilization
Contemporary Reading
4. Economics
Pre-Calculus
5. Physics
Physics
6. Pre-Calculus
Nutrition-Foods 2

So I guess it's an OK schedule. I suppose it'll be fun. I don't know. Guess i'll have to see when I start Wednesday. :(

p.s. : i'm having SO much trouble with this text being bold when it's not suppose to and the font being tiny when it's not suppose to! AHHHHH i've been trying to fix it for the last 20 minutes!!

Work

I'm at work.

Good 'ol work.

I get off in approx. 1 hour and 43 minutes. I've been here since 9 am.

Today hasn't been very eventful, except for the daily crazy person who comes in claiming "I don't owe those fines! It wasn't me!!" Sure. Somebody took your card out of your wallet, checked something out, kept it, and then slipped your card back into your wallet after they proceded to keep the items they checked out so then you would get some fines for it. That sounds totally plausible. OH, but wait, "You guys don't have surveillance cameras here so you can't see if I checked out that DVD!" Only a guilty person who's conjured up a plan to say that would have actually said that. *sigh*.....the public......

So I have been reading for the past 3ish, maybe 4 days, the Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot.

First of all, I LOVE MEG CABOT!!!!!!!! Sorry, just have to yell it out. I have read so many books by her, and she is absolutely hilarious. Anyways, I was really, really dissapointed that the Princess Diaries movies wasn't ANYTHING like the book. 1. Mia's Grandma or Grandmere is really mean and I hate her. 2. Mia gets her first kiss by Josh before a dance, not in a warehouse on the beach. 3. Her dad is totally alive still. The list could go on and on. I know the movie is BASED on the book, BUT COME ON! You could at least make SOME of it like the book. Jeeze.

Okay, well i'm done venting/ranting. I should probably stop typing and help crazy patrons get books!

OUCH

I'm at work at the moment, and i'm having some killer cramps going on. I want to lay (or lie?) down and sleep and never wake up.
But unfortuantely, it's almost 3 o'clock and I don't get off work until 5. SO that means 2 more hours of suffering.

Although, there hasn't been many people coming in here getting books, so I haven't been running around much. I'll just sit here. And not do anything. For 2 more hours.

OKay, I know....stop complaining....there are starving children in Africa. OK.

ANYways, I start school in a week and a day. It's really sad. This morning, I was looking at our HUGE, and I mean HUGE college major books and this one called The 300 Best Careers or something like that...and I really don't have an exact idea on what I wanna do with my life. I mean sure, i'll probably figure it out when i'm in college, but i'm kinda flipping out because i'm afraid I STILL won't know what I want to do, and then i'll have to go to MORE college depending on what I want to do. (whoa, that was a longggg sentence). So yeah. Maybe an idea will strike down upon me within the next year, and i'll know what I want to do. But for now, i'm pretty much clueless.

in pain and clueless,

Backkkk

Okay. So i'm back.
"It's been a long time...." like that song by Rock & Roll by Led Zeppelin.

Anyways. I was at work today, and the lady I work with Sandy, was showing me her daughters blog, and I decided that I needed to keep up on mine. Even if no one reads it, my thoughts are out there for the world to see.

Work was very long and busy today. I had to copy all the obituaries of deceased people who lived in my city. I went to copy one and I lifted up a part of the copy machine (never do that btw) and it jammed the paper inside of it and messed everything up. SO I had to get Dan the Handy Man (our computer wiz) to help me fix it. And he did....so yay Dan!! You're the best!

I had to help many people find books and get movies and blah blah. And ughhhh. One of our regulars over at the library, Bev, well she likes to come into the library, get what she has on hold, go home, and THEN call us (mind you after she's already been into the library) and try to put holds on oh, about a thousand other items. OF COURSE, when she called today, I just happened to answer. So I was stuck on the phone with Bev for about 15 minutes, putting holds on her card for her, and getting books she wanted. Nobody likes Bev. And I mean NOBODY. Whenever she calls (we have caller ID) nobody wants to pick it up. Except one of us WILL....because we HAVE to. But who says that....we could have been too busy to answer or something.....

So i'm definitely excited for the next book by P.C. Cast to come out: Untamed. I JUST finished Chosen and i'm in House of Night fever let me tell you. Only 29 more days. I have to find out what happens to Zoey and Erik. They should be together....they must be together. I get it first I think too when it comes out. Jeeze, working at a library sure does have it's perks, besides no overdue fines. :-)

What else is new? Well I start my senior year in a week and 2 days. Can you believe?? My last year of high school....my last year of freedom basically. :-p Naw, i'm excited to get out of high school and begin my life. It's invigorating.

Well, i'm gonna head off. Talk to my peeps before I start another book.

Night night.

Living

I want to move.

I mean i can't....now. I'm still in school...but still, i wish i could move. Michigan's a nice, pretty, state. But i want more than that. I want adventure, and fun. I would love to move to New York City. I know that's i don't know, kinda sterotypical if that's the right word, but still. I don't care. I think it would be amazing to live there and take in the skyscrapers and everything that has to do with NY.

The other day, i ventured into Detroit for the annual TasteFest...or now known as the CityFest. Before we got to the actual fest, we drove through the city with all the tall buildings and nice little parks, and i felt like i was in New York. (definitely not as busy as NY though). I was looking out the windows of the car, and up into the sky, staring at the huge skyscrapers. I loved it. I wanted to live in it.

I think i'm taking a trip to NY in the next year or so. I'll check out what the city has to offer and if it would fit me.

Saturdays

So it's Saturday, and it's been a good day so far.

This morning I weighed myself (i've been eating well this past month or so) and I lost 2 more pounds, which puts me to a 13 pound loss! I was very excited. I thought I wouldn't loose anything because I had cake and some crap this week. But i'm very happy and grateful I lost 2. :-)

While watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding, amazing movie i'm sure you know, I made myself a change purse! My wallet isn't huge, so the change in the little back compartment was bulging out. So I made a cute, little cow print change purse. I had the extra material laying around. Here's a picture:It's a kinda dark picture, but you can still see it good. I love it!
