School and Life

So the summer is nearly over. It went by way too fast! School is back into session, and after much wait and processing, I finally got accepted to Western Illinois University. 

I don't know what is up with people and not believing or comprehending the concept, that getting financial aid or a great student loan with low interest rates is just not in the books for me. But Andrew's mom kept insisting that there was a way. She ended up finding out that the Parents signature on the FAFSA is not a rule from FAFSA, but actually the rule of the universities. So I needed to appeal to the man of mans of the university and convience him that I have non-existance parents. So I got to write a long letter explaining everything that was done in my life and everything about my parents, like I so desperately want to keep repeating it.......not alone to a complete stranger that I never even seen yet. Then I'm supposed to get a professional like a therapist or something to write a letter explaining my unsuitable parents. Like where the f*** am I suppose to get that. SO the only thing that I can get remotely close to it, is a case that was reported back in 2001, and let me tell you, trying to find a copy of the document and have it sent to me, is like finding a needle in the haystack. And all I get is confused people, who are too busy or rude or clueless to help. So finally I had to convience Andrew's mom that it's not going to happen, and that school was right around the corner, and I really need to get a loan. She finally agrees, but keeps insisting that I keep looking. I mean, I love to be able to get financial aid or a better student loan, but I'm started to think that it's impossible, unless I wait until I'm 25 to go to school because for some reason that's the year that you are declared independant, even though most people have been out on their own for 7 years by that time (if you leave when your 18). I don't want to wait that long. I want to be out of school by that time. It's complete B.S. but whatever. 

Then there was a problem with the signing. Andrew told me that his parents were going to co-sign. Not like I asked them or anything, but he said that they would. Then the weekend before school starts we find out that they don't want to, so when I try to say I'll do it without them. Andrew's told me they will do it, and don't be ridiculous because it'll cost me more in the end. It so stressful. But it finally got done, and now I'm waiting for it to show up. I don't know how long it will take. We moved - same building, different apartment. So we had to go to the post office to get our mailed forwarded and now a mail is a week behind. The school needs the payment before September or they will kick me out, so I hope I get it in time.

Moving was chaos. We moved in the end of July. I was working mornings and Andrew nights.  We got the key on July 28th in the afternoon. So when I got home at 5:30, I got straight to work moving the stuff one by one. By the end of the night I got almost everything in except the computer desk and computer stuff, tv, tv stand, couch, and coffee table.  When Andrew got home from work he helped out with moving the bed. He was a little grouchy that I asked him because he just got off work and didn't want to do anything but relax (*sigh* we are so different). But he helped because he knew how badly I wanted to get everything out of the tiny apt., and into a more decent one. All he had to do the next day, while I was at work was move the rest of the stuff in and clean the tiny apt. and turn in the keys. While he ended up getting busy or something but he didn't get everything done, so I had to come home and finish the rest. I was so mad at him, and he was shocked of why I was so mad, which, of course, pissed me off more. But anyways, everything is set up and looks nice, so I'm glad that's over. 

Then there is the stress of the jobs. Andrew finally got a job in June at Pizza Hut, and man did the co-workers sound like a**holes. Well anyways near the end of June, early July, Andrew gets sick and starts vomiting, and it continued so at 1pm he calls work to tell him he is not going to make it, and the assistant manager says that he better show up with a doctors note at 5 or his fired. So poor Andrew starts calling the hospitals and they told him that he needs insurance to get a doctors note, so he calls his mom and she tells him to look around for free clinics. But the one that we have is for Western students. So poor Andrew gets fired. Which just adds to the stress as well. I was so angry, I wanted to call Pizza Hut and tell them that I'm a journalist and that I was going to write a column about Pizza Hut forcing people to work when they get sick or they are fired, and do a poll to see how many people would still want to eat there knowing that they might get sick and totally freak out the managers, but Andrew told me not to. RATS! Come on, just a little fun. :) 

So anyways, he starts job searching again and in two weeks he got a job at a sandwich shop as a delivery driver. I was proud that he was so motivated and got the job so quickly. So on his first day, the person on charge tells him that he will be working inside, and the insider will be making deliveries. (that makes total sense-NOT!) So the owners are a married couple, who lives in this town and from what are hear are very religious and strict. AND don't normally come in on Sundays (that's the day Andrew was working). Well I guess this particular sunday she decided to show up for 5 minutes. There is only Andrew and some guy inside and the insider-now driver is out, and the guy was taking a customers order, and Andrew is waiting behind him, watching him and waiting until the order is done, so he can make it. Well the lady owner saw this and left. Then two days later, when Andrew was suppose to work again, she calls him up 10 minutes before he supposed to be at work, to tell him don't bother showing up, and that he is fired because he is slow. WTF? Stupid B****! So Andrew's telling her to give him another chance, that he is not slow. But she said she made up her mind, and the worst part, was that if he was driving like he was suppose to, then none of this would have happened. Anyways Godfathers Pizza called while working at the sandwich shop asking for a interview, which was just luck. So now he works there. Hopefully nothing will happen, I don't think so though.

I've been going to school for the past week and it has been crazy in that department as well. First of all because I registered so late I got all 8 in the morning classes. Parking is insane to find, and just trying to find my classes is hard, not alone when they don't have a sign saying that it is not being held in the classroom that my schedule says. Oh and they are already assigning homework and reading assignments. I don't have my books yet and won't until, hopefully, the end of the month, so that's going to be a problem. I don't understand how they can assign homework when kids are still figuring out classroom placements and courses, but whatever. I'm also a little annoyed because I took a math placement test and I was placed in the lowesr - Math 99. (which I'm surprised because I really good at math, a little rusty, but good) So I go to the class and it's in this room with chairs so close together like an auditorium, and next to your little arm rest you can lift up a little desk from the side, and there is 60 some students in there with a projector 5-10 feet head of me. It's like WTF? I'm paying for this! So the teacher starts teaching and he goes on about natural numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, ... and whole numbers is with a 0, and I'm like WTF? I learned this stuff in 7th-8th grade. So I go back to take the placement test again after class, thinking there's got to be some kind of mistake. But I take it, and I had to guess like 3 problems out of 20 but I pretty sure I nailed the other questions. My results......the same. It sucks, but at least I know I will get an A in the course. Lol

So August is such a crazy month that I completely forgot that my birthday is just around the corner. With school, work, losing jobs, moving, student loans. I could already use a vacation. lol. It was kind of funny because Andrew was talking about next weeks work schedule for him, and the manager told him that he has to work Monday, but he will give him Tuesday off. Andrew's says it fine, but he would also like Wed. off. I asked why Wed.? Thinking that's a wierd day in the week to request off, and he's like because it's your 21st birthday. Oh yeah. lol.

So that's the new 411 on my life, and I can't wait until August is over. lol

Hello old friend

It's been a very long time since I last posted in this journal, but let's not get into that right now.

I've had a very interesting day today. I got up to study for a Assistant Manager training meeting that I had at 3:30p today. And I really am dragging with this whole thing because I don't really want to become an Assistant because I've been down that road before and all you get is screwed up the ass. But I could really use the extra money, so dragged my butt to the meeting and sat there for 3 1/2 hours of lecturing about service times, safety and security, blah, blah, blah.  Then I have to wait to get a ride home for another half hour because I still can't drive, and my broke ass can't get a phone, and Andrew doesn't answer the phone unless it's a familiar number. To finally get home to get greeted by a kick of the couch, to having an agruement with Andrew.  Sorry, didn't mean to get all ranty there. I don't know why I feel so moody and irritated lately.  But things are changing around here.

By Fall I hope to get into WIU full time and work less hours at nights. Oh and I might be geing out of Dominos soon, I've applied to a job for an Administrative Assistant, that I'm crossing my fingers that I will get.

Yeah, I know. I rarely write in this thing.

Things are going good now. I can't wait for spring. The antipation is killing me.

I sorta looking forward to summer break. But not completely. I got to work two jobs. AND WORK MY ASS OFF! I have so much plans and bills that I have to do and pay.
*Get a car
*Get registration, tags, and insurance for the car.
*Get my wisdom teeth pulled. And if I don't get my insurance. That is going to cost ALOT!
*I'm moving out to Macomb with Andrew in the fall, so I have to set up and get stuff for the apartment.
*I will still have to pay for college tuition and books, after I get registered in a new school.
*Get registered for a new phone, and plan.
*And some other personal stuff that I have to get. Like stock up on birth control because out in the country, they don't have a place that you can buy it, that doesn't involve a gyncologist prescription for Walgreens. blah.


So summer isn't going to be a typical back from college-let's party and relax. But of course, that not how life really is. At least it isn't, unless you're filthy rich. DAMN YOU PEOPLE!!!

Lauren's setting up her new place with Dave. And will be moving out possibly in the summmer. I'm going to miss her so much. It's going to be wierd not seeing her almost everyday. I mean, who else is going to get all our inside jokes and understand our past? .... This sucks, but I'm really happy for her. Starting her new life with Dave. It's very exciting. But man, I really am going to miss her. We would go from living together, to living 6 hours away from each other, and in different states. :(

Life keeps going on...

Well today, I talked to my mom more than I did in 2 years. E-mail of course, and luckily it wasn't a one line sentence reply back. It was more like 3, but hey it's a big step for her. And twice in one day too. Yeah that's right, big step. hahaha.

Today, Andrew's coming down. Which I'm excited. I hate how far apart we live, and how limited we can see each other. But these next two weeks will make up for some of it. He starts his spring break today, and goes back to school about the same time my spring break starts. So I can see him for 2 weeks. Very exciting.

Other than that, nothing much has really been happening lately. Oh wait, I'm going to a rock concert in May. Fall Out Boy, All-American Rejects, and some other people I haven't heard of before. But I am excited and can't wait. I really wish Me and Lauren could of heard the announcement of another concert sooner. It was Fall Out Boy, All-American Rejects, and Hawthorne Heights. But we got second best.

School is same as ever. I got a test in my Psycho. class on Tuesday. I've been studing and reading quite a bit. So I think I'm going to do really well. And in my Business Class I have a test the day I come back from Spring Break. So lot's of studing during that time. YAY! jk. And music appreciation is the same as ever.

I need a hair cut. Not as in short, just trimmed. And don't ask where that came from.

I'm looking cars lately. But it's more like a slap in the face when I do. Because this summer, I'm not going to school, getting a second job and saving up for a car. I should have one in August. Driver's lincense and everything. But I'm looking at cars now. And then I find a car a really really want. But I don't have the money now, and by the time I do have money. That car will most likely not be on the market any more. *sigh*

So anyways, I need to get going. PEACE!

Yes, I just said peace, don't act so shocked.

So I decided I was going to let the little kid out of me. And see if my biological parents were findable on the internet. And they were. And I know it is them. But of course if I want to find out their address and phone number, I would have to pay. And that kinda seems a little like a stocker. I didn't pay. But I definitly know that it is them. Their parents names (my grandparents), the state, the age, and their name all match. That is just bizarre. And I found out where my little brothers, used to be middle name, came from. Our grandpa on our dad's sides has the same middle name. That was really cool and interesting to find out. I really wish I knew what my heritage is from, like where we come from, what's our family history (other than being alcoholics), and why we were named what we are named. I don't know, recently I've been thinking a lot about my biological family. I don't really know why, I didn't seem to care so much before. I know that sounds mean, but growing up my mission was to find my brother and have the bond and relationship that we had before. Now that I have that, I guess I'm thinking about the rest of my family. If you don't understand what I'm talking about, I'm adopted. At the age of 10. So I won't confuse you too much :)

This year is going to be really crazy. This year, I'm finally going to get my driver's lincense, and my car. Lauren is sadly going to be moving out in the summer. And I will most likely be moving out in the fall. It's going to suck from seeing Lauren every single day, to only a couple of daysa week. And from living in the same house, to living 5 hours away in a different state!

I'm also a little scared about moving in with Andrew. I mean, I love him. And he is a friend to me too. But there's a lot of things that are different about us. And I'm a little afraid that those diffences are going to clash when we are living together. But if push comes to shove, I can always get my own place!

Work's been really crazy lately. I've been working like a maniac. And haven't gotten a day off in 6 days now. I have another 7 days to go before I get a day off too. I'm going to be in such desprite need of a break, that I found a way that I could get 3 days off, in a week. So I'm going to go spend a weekend with my sweetie. The good news is that I'm going to be going overtime, and banking in dough. Definitely a plus. :)

Well things are getting crazy..

Friday is going to be awesome, time off, and relaxing. Lauren, her grandparents, and I are gonna head out to Downtown Chicago to go Christmas shopping in a 8 story mall. Never been there, so this is going to be interesting and fun. Then out to eat at, possible, the John Hancock building. Also never been there. Then ice skating, and a 3D movie. I can't wait. It seems no matter how many times I've been to Chicago (which hasn't been a whole lot, but quite a bit) I still haven't seen everything. Oh and the thing that was getting me aggravated today was that I got two phone calls IN CLASS asking if I can cover a shift on Friday. BS and no way. And this girl, Laura, at my job is pissing me off. Blowing up my phone with calls asking me to cover her shifts, change shifts, change her mind and want me to work different shifts. If she can't work, please woman just quit. Shesh.

Saturday: I'm working a 11 hour shift, and right afterwords heading off to Jamie's party. That's going to be fun and interesting. Considering I'm going to be quite tired, or wired depending if I have a lot of coffee. lol

Sunday: Work, and then off to see movies with Latrissa, and getting some of my homework done.

The rest of the week I'm going to be studing and taking tests, doing reports, essays, etc. Plus, I need to start packing because I'm be leaving to Tucson on the 21st. The day after my last class.

On the 16th Andrew's coming down for Christmas break. Can't wait to see him, it's would be 3 weeks by then. :( What I think is crazy, is that 3 weeks seems like a long time. I don't understand how people can go months without seeing eachother. That is just nuts. But they could be talking to eachother more often when they are separated than Andrew and I do. Because we have two different phone plans. Which my opinion, his plan sucks.

After I get back from my vacation to Tucson, I need to unpack, clean, and repack to head out to Indiana the next day to go camping for the new years weekend. So I'm booked, but very excited.

Oh, and I just wanted to add this on here. Lauren, you are still my bestest friend in the whole world. I even consider you my sister. I'm sorry I've been out of it lately, but I've been really stressed, and have a lot of things going on in my mind. I don't want you to feel that you can't tell me anything because I will get irratated. I didn't mean to give off that impression. And about your classes. I know how hard it is to take classes with no teacher. Remember I did it too with my online class. I know it sucks, and it's hard. Especially on a hard subject. And I do believe, and hope that even after we move and go our seperate ways, that we will still be best friends. Because girl, when we move our seperate ways, get ready to hear from me every day. okay? :) And if school is getting out of control, then take a break, and come back when you're ready. The important thing is that your happy with what your doing. And contrary to what you believe sometimes, I do care. And nothing with ever change it, no matter what. okay?

Now that I got that out of my system :) I need to get going. I have studing to do, and a tuition to pay.

Oh wait, and one more thing. Out of all the layouts that I made for my livejournal. I think this one is the best!

I think I'm falling really hard this time. I have never been a relationship that I have fallen this hard. I kinda like it (but don't tell him that :P)

This halloween weekend was fun, I was a little disappointed because I was a french maid because 1) I think it's a cute custome and 2) because not that many people dress up as french maids anymore. And I really liked my custome, but it sucked that when I got to the party there was 2 other girls wearing french maids outfits. I'm not wierd, I'm just not a follower, I like to be my own individual.... I take that back, I am wierd.

The rest of the party was really nice. We had this delicious jungle juice, that had gin, vodka, everclear, and juice with lemons and limes cut up and floating in this huge gladware container. You couldn't even taste the alcohol, it was so good. I think drinks that you can't taste the alcohol are bad for you, because you keep drinking and you don't really realize that you're getting drunk. I love it. :) Although sadly I forgot to get a jello shot. I was so looking forward to those too... Customes at the party were awesome, there was definitely some really funny ones. It was fun.

Sometimes I feel really bad, because I'm staying with my best friend Lauren and her grandparents, so I can pay my way through college. But I feel like I'm overstaying my welcome. Don't get me wrong, I love living with them, it's just that I feel I'm too old to have people take care of me. I don't know. Financially, I couldn't afford to live on my own, especially with all this tutition I'm paying. I mean, it's hard enough to get a car, which I must say, I am in deathly need of one. But I don't want a shitty one, and I'm scared about getting a car, because I don't wanna drive in the snow. But I think there will be so much less tension if I had my own transportation. I'm thinking about pulling out loans to pay for a car, but I don't know. I don't like the feeling of owing people money. Whatever.

I can't wait until Lauren gets out of her studing class thingy, because we are going to see SAW II. Which I hear, is way better than the first one. And the first one was crazy. So i'm excited...tired and excited.

20 random things about me - stolen from Bear26, but most likely a thousand other people have done it too.

1. Mario brothers is the best game that man ever invented, and all other games are nothing compared to it - in my opinion.
2. I sorta got to choose my parents.
3. I don't really hate my parents, as much as I hate to admit sometimes.
4. The styrofoam stuff that protect glass, etc. drives me nuts when rubbed together. Worst than fingernails scraping the chalkboard.
5. My dream job when I was younger was to work for NASA.
6. I hated Barney, and Sesame Street but was forced to watch it when I was younger. And Mister Rogers scared me as a child, cause he was always changing his coat and shoes and talked to a train.
7. I didn't learn how to read until I was 6 years old. Once I learned, it was like drugs, I was addicted.
8. When I paint my toenails, I can't just paint them one color, because they would be boring.
9. When I was younger I scolded my parents and grandparents for smoking, and now I smoke.
10. Pokemon and Dragonballz is very annoying, and should be made a illegal to play.
11. I can't stand my name when people refer to me as Queen Elizabeth or Elizabeth Taylor.
12. I have the same birthday as Michael Jackson. Too bad he is scary now.
13. I hate vinegar and cucumbers, I think they are disgusting. But I love pickles.
14. Younger, I used to get really paranoid if any of my food was touching another. Like my macaroni touching my chicken.
15. The exercist (the orginal) was the scariest movie I ever saw. But I was also 6 when I saw it too.
16. Chucky was my favorite movie series as a kid. And I wasn't scared of it either, but I was extra nice to my stuffed animals to be on the safe side.
17. When I had to do my chores when I was younger, I pretended I was Cinderella. corny I know.
18. I want to live in Antartica for a year because nobody wants to go there, and they have 6 mons. of daylight, and 6 mons. of night.
19. I'm majoring in Computers and I can't stand being at a computer for more than 3 hours.
20. I didn't cry in the movie Titanic.

Wow, I am so good at this updating thing, that I should win a prize. Not Lauren, she can't win a prize because she hardly ever updates :) jk

Yeah, I took another one of those quiz thingys (can you tell I'm in college? I kid you not people! lol) and I found out that I'm 30% a Nerd, 19% a Geek, and 39% a Dork. So since I didn't score over half on any, I am considered a Joe Normal. Yes, I will be known as Joe Normal...at least I think that is what it was called...aww..I don't wanna take the test again!!! forget it..

ANYWAYS..I realized that I didn't update my weekend, which we are now coming to another weekend. I told you I was good at this updating thing. ANYWAYS, keep getting off track here. I went to Macomb on Friday. Yep, boarded the train, for a long ride of three and a half hours. JOY. I made some friends on the train, well more like acquaintances but lets not get into that. Well... it was kinda required since we were all squashed in a tiny place. I felt bad for them though, because I was dying to get off the train, and they have been on there longer than I had (coming from other towns). It was funny when we were 5 mins away, and they announced it, Tara did a happy dance (which I would too if I've been on the train for 7 hours). So I get there, meet a couple of Andrew's friends and room mates and socially drank.

Saturday: We get up at noon (yeah, we're lazy asses) and Andrew and his friends had this party planned of Keg Racing. The part that I was a little iffy about was that they wanted to do it at 2. Not in the morning, IN THE AFTERNOON. But I guess enough people complained, so they pushed it back to 5. Okay, so before I go any further, let me announce something. I HAVE NEVER PUKED BEFORE! EVER! and no it is not because I never drank, because believe me I have. (I have drank so much, that I couldn't remembered what happened though, but still no puking, that takes talent. joking) Anyways we get to the party. There are 5 teams each with a keg, and there are 8 people on each team. So that means that basically the teams, if the all drank the same amount, would drink about 20 beers or maybe it's 24...whatever, so within the first 20 mins of us starting, I have chugged 7 beers and did a beer bong, so disaster was just waiting to happen. Which it did, I broke my wonderful record, and puked. Not just once, 3 times throughout the race. :( And whoever puked the rule was that the team couldn't drink for 2 mins. but nobody was listening so that was thrown out, so the rule was whoever puke THEY had to sit out for 2 mins. but on the plus side, our team won (mostly because me and Schilife [My fav. of Andrew's friends] had a thing going that we would chug a SHIT load of beer, puke, feel better while sitting out for 2 mins. then back out to more chugging. Which is smart compared to the people on the other teams who were just drinking regularly, sipping even.) So we won, and nobody else finished until 30 mins after we were done. That is how much we ROCKED! and may I add drunk lol

Sunday: nothing really special, watched a lot of movies. If you haven't seen Undercover Brother, you need too. Because it was hilarious. I was actually crying from laughing so much. Of course, I also did that in Taxi....so go see Taxi too.

Monday: My birthday. yeah, I'm old. not really...Andrew had class, but he missed his 8 am one because he said that he couldn't make it on time because he would a few minutes late, and his teacher would not take kindly of that...He was ready 10 mins til his class started and lives about 5 mins away. Yes, he is smart people, believe or not. jk. So we watched a movie and tv for a while, then he had class at 3pm which I basically threatened him that he had to go. While one of his room mates, Chad, totally blows that out of the water. Because he tells him that he shouldn't go, because that would be mean to leave me alone for 2 hours on my birthday. If I knew Chad better, I would of slapped him. It's sweet, don't get me wrong, but common, this is college not a ....ring around the rosie? sorry had a brain fart...what the fuck am I trying to say...I don't know, you get the point. So yeah, later that night we partied like it was my birthday. It was fun. We played drinking games, which is always fun when there's more people. Although, I do terrible when I've been drinking a while, especially on ones that involve thinking. Like we were playing the Circle of Death, I don't know if you heard of that game, but like each card represents something. So Jack was category. So the person who pulled it picks a category, like lets say cigeratte brands. Then it goes around the circle on brands of cigerattes, well whenever it got around to me 8/10 times I would fucked up. (hey most of the categories were on guy issues cut me some slack! and I guess it doesn't help if you are the only chick playing with like 10 guys.) Well this one guy, Steve, was making fun of me, so I got him back when I got to choose a category. I choose brands of Tampons, lol. And he totally fucked up. lol Just shit like that it was really fun. Didn't go to bed until 4 in the morning.

Tuesday: got up at 6:30a to pack my stuff and head to the train station, which came at 7. Yes, people I did not get that much sleep. I came back and heard what happened in New Orleans. That was so sad. So almost all day, we watched the news. (which I haven't watch the news since the war started, because you have no idea how much it pisses me off!!!) Then Lauren and I walked to the mall. It was funny tho, Lauren and I were in the candle store. I think it's called Yankee Candle or something random like that. So we are in there sniffing the different kind of candles, and the lady that works there is like "Can I help you?" Then I said in my loud voice "No, we're just snorting things" it was funny....and wierd...I believe there was a moment of silence before I busted out laughing. :)

OMG...I don't wanna sound really mean, but I'm at the college library, and this guy sits beside me. The first thing that hits me is the smell. OMG it is terrible! I look over and I see a really fat guy with green yellow hair. HELP!

Since I already gave almost the whole week might as well finish it. lol

Wednesday: Mainly set up for school. Called Starbucks because they are retarded and can't call me. Have to call back Friday. Then Lauren, Jamie, and I went to Chili's. After Chili's we went to The Coffee Shop, Mr. Sheeshas. Smoked from Hookas, drank smoothies, and played Jenja. We were really loud and obnoxious. But the owner loved it, and also loved Lauren's laugh. lol. He would actually do things to try and make her laugh. It was tons of fun. And I hadn't seen Jamie in quite a while, it was really cool.

Thursday/Today: Class, which I'm excited to find out that this class is not like ALL my other computer classes. And learn just about the programs, how they work, what they do, what they are used for, etc. But I now have a class that is like an English class. Believe me, I'm relieved. Now, Lauren is back. YAY! That is why this update is so long, I had 2 1/2 hours of absolutely nothing to do. And boy, am I starving.

Friday/Tomorrow: I can't wait. We are going to the Last Fling in Downtown Naperville. Which is the first thing that I ever went to when I first came here. Wow, that means I have lived in Illinois for one full year....scary. After the Last Fling, we are going to see The Sound of Thunder, which sounds like a REALLY good movie! I wonder when War of the Worlds is coming out on DVD?? ...okay I'm sorry. oh AND Andrew is coming down for the weekend. Gonna be a good weekend. :)

There. This entry should last me for a month. :)

Note to self: Don't eat breakfast. I hardly ever do, but I did today, and now I have tons of energy and my thoughts are discombobulated. lol

Okay I swear I am done.

The Carnal Lover
45% partner focus, 52% aggressiveness, 75% adventurousness
Based on the results of this test, it is highly likely that:

You prefer your romance and love to wild and daring rather than typical or boring, you would rather pursue than be pursued and, when it comes to physical love, you concentrate more on enjoying the experience rather than worrying about your performance.

This places you in the Lover Style of: The Carnal Lover.

The Carnal Lover is a wonderful Lover Style, though it is often confused with terms like "player" or even "slut." The Carnal Lover is not necessarily either of those things (though sometimes is) but is instead a lover of life, romance and pleasure. The Carnal Lover is a treasure to find, though can sometimes be difficult to keep happy once found, because a Carnal Lover often loves a variety-filled life.

In terms of physical love, the Carnal Lover tends to be dynamic and driven, and can therefore be quite pleasurable. Given the right motivation, and the right lover, the Carnal Lover can be a delight in bed.

Best Compatibility can probably be found with: The Surprising Lover (most of all) or the Devoted Lover, or the Liberated Lover.

Congratulations!

Well today was basicly a laid back day.

Lauren got her braces off, which I'm happy for her, because I know how much it means to her!

Tomorrow I'm off to Macomb to see Andrew. Happy but kinda nervous about it. Just for the fact that there is going to be a LOT of drinking. Especially on the 29th. (monday) Because, dun dun dun, it's my birthday. Yeah, shocking to even me. lol Looking forward to meeting his friends and room mates, from what I hear (from Andrew, and through the phone) sounds like I'll fit right in. They're wierd, ghettoish, and crazy. lol

THEN when I get back, it's off to school and work I go. Kinda of dreading it, but mostly looking forward to it (as you can see, I have weird emotions, lol) But I'm looking forward to getting back into the routine, and meeting new people, and all that good stuff.

But overall these days, I just basicly chilled, watched quite a bit of movies, took a lot of pills (yes, I'm a pill popper, no jk, I've got the cold that is lasting FOREVER, I guess smoking doesn't help it lol) and ran a lot of errands getting school and my weekend trip set up.

Oh, and I dyed my hair again. I know, it's an addition. But it didn't turn out quite how I pictured it, but still nice. It was supposed to be burgundy with bluish but mostly black streaks. But the results - just looks black with a tint of blue. I also got my hair layered. Which my hair is thanking me, cause I needed to get it cut.

Well I'm off to pop more pills and go to bed. bye

Well I finally got out of my chains of torment and quit Dominos. Yes I know, about fucking time :)

Tomorrow I'm heading out to Great America which I have been dying to go to since the commericial had that old looking guy jumping up and down to the Venga Boys song! Yep, I'm wierd. So to make up for all the times that I couldn't go, me and a couple of friends are staying there from open to close. A very long, and exciting day awaiting me. YAY! Oh how I LOVE amusement parks!!!

Tonight, Andrew is coming back from his week vacation from his beach house in North Carolina with his family. Awww... the world of money. BLAH. Of course, he also has a 18 hour drive ahead of him too. Which in fact he is doing right now. Hey all vacations has there plus and minus! So yeah, looking forward to seeing him. Although, sleep deprived or not, if he wants to go to Great America (which he says he does) then he better be ready for an open and close of it! Yes, I can be a bitch sometimes, it's in my nature. But of course, I don't feel too bad considering 1. He wants to go and 2. He was being an asshole to me on his vacation anyways.

Well things are looking up for me now - notice the keyword "now" lol. Which is a relief. Well, I gotta get packing some things, and clean and ....stuff. PEACE

Wow, I have been so caught up with everything that I haven't had time to actually sit on the computer for a while. AND I just realized that I haven't updated in almost a month. Wow, I thought it was a week ago!

Life is going as usually, alot of ups and downs.

I'm out of school, finally. And thankfully for a month. I could really use the break :)

I'm actually dreading school that will be coming up, because that means that Andrew will be away at college, which is three and a half hours away from me :( And I'm going to be too busy with School and Work, that I couldn't just see him late at night. In fact, if I'm lucky, I'll see him once a month *sigh*

I'm finally going to be throwing in the rag to the god awful place that I call a job! And maybe be working at Starbucks or something random until I get a certificate and start on my career! But Starbucks will be nice I guess. No working all alone, more pay, more benefits, and less bullshit (hopefully on that last one)!

I know this isn't much of an update, but I'm really tired. I wouldn't even be up, if I didn't forget to wash my uniform, and now waiting for it to dry. But I think it's dry now, so I'm off. But I promise a better update later :)

What a weekend!!!

I don't know if I should go into it or not......Fuck it, here it goes.

Thursday (yeah i know it started a little too early, lol):
I worked open to close, then about midnight I went to Sara and Mike's house. Where we chilled and drank for awhile! Red Bull and Vodka taste so good. You can't tell if you're wired off the energy drink, or drunk off the vodka. Then we had Rockstar and Vodka mixed. And I will recommend to anybody never to try that!!! It is SOOOO disgusting. So Mike challeged me to chugged it with him. Which I almost threw up, it was so gross! The good news, I beat him. :) Then I talked to Andrew, almost drunk as hell. So he came over, and then it was just crazy from there. Drinking and chilling, but then nobody could go to sleep, no matter how hard we tried. So about 10 am, Andrew went home. And Sara was hungry, so we went to McDonald's for some breakfast, well Mike continued to try to go to sleep, lol. I got 2 breakfast burritos, and couln't even finish one. My stomach was killing me. So I went home about 11. Took a shower, felt 5 times better (no sorry not 10, just 5) and finally went to sleep at noon. Woke up at 4, got ready and went to work. JOY!!

Saturday:
Basically sleeped all day. Not really, but it was my lazy day. I was supposed to do homework, but I was too exhausted. So I woke up at one, and basically just laid there watching tv until I had to get ready, and go to work at 5! Closed again (yeah, my job sucks!!) I was so exhausted. I over slept, I hate sleeping, I'm either over sleeping, or sleep deprived. Either way this whole weekend I was exhausted!! ANYWAYS..Andrew was supposed to work, but was way too sick. I'm felt so bad for him. Cause at first when I heard that he wasn't working cause he was sick, I thought he was bullshiting and just wanted to go to the Rib fest or something. But then I found out that he came in, sick as hell, couldn't stand straight, and paler than a ghost. So you better believe I felt like a spawn of satan for thinking that way. :(

Sunday:
Oh Saturday night Sara asked for me to come over, so after work that's where I went. Our plan was to sleep over, wake up early and go to the Rib fest. But we sleeped in longer than we thought we would. But of course we were watching Bad Santa and didn't go to bed until three. So we woke up at noon, went to the Rib fest for awhile, man was that place is expensive. But it was fun. At 4 we left, and went back to Sara's place to grab our stuff and head to work. But a minor complication happened, that is gonna cost me BIG bucks. I lost my fucking keys. The keys to the house, and the store. So I'm searching everywhere, until I had to stop cause I had to work.(Still haven't found my keys, so I probably gonna have to pay Dominos $150 to change all the locks, and get a new key. I love my forgetful mind! NOT) That night I worked till 11pm, got off and was going to go see War of the Worlds a second time. Cause Sara, Mike, Andrew, and Latrissa hadn't seen it, and wanted too. But how a simple thing like going to the movies can turn into complete chaos. Latrissa keep changing her mind every 10 mins. on whether she wanted to go, could go, have transporation to go, or not. It was driving me nuts. Then I couldn't find my phone, and accidently had Andrew wait outside for 25 mins. Sara and Mike couldn't find us, and couldn't tell if the place was opened or not. So finally everybody except Latrissa is at the theatre to find out that the ticket line is closed. That was disappointing. So instead we went to Andrew's place. Hung out, drank, played cards, and drinking games. And just basically chilled. Then Sara and Mike went home. I was kinda worried, cause I wasn't sure if they could drive, cause of the drinking. But they made it home fine. I crashed at Andrew's place, cause early in the morning we were going to see War of the Worlds cause he really wanted to see it. So we crashed. Woke up and saw it. He loved it, I knew he would. And I think that Lauren needs to drag Dave's butt all the way to the theatre. Because if he doesn't see it, he is really missing out!! Anyways, came home, chilled until it was time to work.

Yeah I know, I had to work on the fucking 4th of July. And not just that, I had to close!! Because my manager JUST loves me! (I'm being sarcastic, if you didn't catch that!) We were basically slow. The only time customers called, is when you don't want them too, because you just went outside for a cigeratte. But Naperville customers are like that! Rude, snobby, and think that you need to worship the ground they walk on. Anyways, we were supposed to grill that day. But THAT plan changed. So instead we did a swap with Culver's Butter Burger place, which was good, but of course I was straving, and I was happy that I didn't have to resort to pizza. Oh, and I never seen a firework show before. NEVER! So you can tell how much I loved working yesterday. Well I went out to have a cigeratte at 9 something, and they had one going on right across the lake in the back of Dominos (where you have to smoke) So I was like "YES, FINALLY!!" And then some idiotic Naperville customer decided to ruin my fun. :( And to top things off we got packed 30 mins. before we were closed. And I already started cleaning, and counting my inventory. So then I had to start ALL over again. So I didn't get out until 1am. :( Came home, finally saw Lauren. Man I missed her!! And we were going to do some of our own fireworks..small ones. But then we found out that some drunk dumbass hit Dave's truck! Damn that fucking sucked! Luckily we found out who hit his car, so that he can be charged! I couldn't wait for the police tho, it was getting really late, I was exhausted, and police always take forever. When you don't need them, they are always there. But when you do need them, they are nowhere around and take forever to show up! Fucking pigs!!

Today:
Yes, I finally did my homework, and I'm almost done! Since I was almost 2 weeks (which is two days) behind! Yeah, I know I suck!! Called around to find the lost and found for Rib fest to see if keys showed up. Stupid people don't even know what's going on in there own town. They transfered me everywhere, and then finally I find the people I need to talk to, and nobody seen it yet! Yeah, it really sucks. Oh and I lost my Debit card too, so I had to cancel the card, and have to wait 2 weeks for a new one. So yeah, really crazy weekend. Now my hands hurt, so I'm stopping. Seriously.

And I know that Steve can find about 20 things wrong with this entry, so give me your best shot!! :) kidding

TO DAVE:

Personally I am getting sick and tired of Dave trying to get into my fucking life!!!

Just because Lauren and I are close does not mean that you are a part of my life too! okay?

You wonder why I don't like you so much, is because of your snobby attitude sometimes, and the fact that you keep trying to get into my fucking business. I don't mind it much, but sometimes it gets on my fucking nerves. I didn't need your help in my life for 18 years, so why the fuck would I need your help now, on comments about my life, friends, and love life!! Really it's none of your fucking business!!

Do I ever diss on your fucking friends? no. So don't ever do it to me! And don't help me with my love life, if I wanted a fucking boyfriend, I would find my own thank you very much!!!

Personally if you didn't mean so much to Lauren, I would have kicked your ass a long time ago!!!

GRRR.... ASSHOLE!


p.s. other than that my night went really good. And whoever haven't seen War of the Worlds needs to see it, because it's AWESOME!!!!!
