Quick Update...

ok so i have to do this quickly because i must get at least four hours of rest before school.

well i guess my day officially started at 10 o clock on monday night. so i got ready and went to work as i always do. i get to work and it is pouring outside. that was just great. rain and storms means a very very long night at work. normally i wouldn't mind because i get more hours, but i had a few things in mind before i had to be at school for tuesday. i was going to do a bit of cleaning and whatnot and maybe lay down for a couple of hours. well i got home a lot later than i am use to. and i used up a lot more energy than i would usually on a normal night. i was so tired, but i had to stay up because i technically didn't have enough time to sleep. so the night goes by and around 6, i completely crashed. i slept for and hour and a half, almost two hours. i woke up and was rushing around because i was afraid i would be late for my first class. i made it literally 3 minutes early. i was lucky. while i was in my short slumber, i received a phone call from UPS saying my laptop was going to be delivered today. the problem was someone had to be present in the house to have the package delivered. this was a problem because my roommates were in class and i was going to have to go to work at 2. i wasn't so sure what to do.
after the class, i decided that i was going to drop my history class just for the sake of my sanity. it took me way too long to figure out just how to do so, but i finally did and i headed home before i had to go to my art job. i wanted to also see if i could catch the package. well i thought i should get some rest because i knew those ladies would have me all over the place. so i laid down for a short nap which ended up being more than a short nap. i woke up ten minute until 2 when i had to be there at 2. so once again i found myself rushing to get there and i was between 10 and 15 minutes late. well barb seemed to be freaking outabout it, thinking that i was hurt or something, but she calmed down when i walked through the door. i didn't accomplish much in the time i was there, but i accomplished enough. after i finished my work there, i was on my way to the UPS store so that my mother would stop calling me and bothering me about sending her debit card and checks to her. she is trying to rush me around while i am trying to handle my own business and it is just not cool. anyway, as i was leaving, my boss barb was like, "oh hey, mikelle, tomorrow (or some time this week) we are having this girl come out that is suppositely a highly experienced artist. well we are not sure what will happen, but if she comes out, do you mind just painting some times and helping us out?".... what the fuck?! so in other words, i would be "loosing" my job, the job that i was so excited about and so ready to start. i was so pleased to have the title as an "artist". i know that sounds stupid, but it just made me feel so accomplished. and now they are thinking about taking it away from me. i mean do i really suck that bad. yesterday was only my second day of working there and they are already trying to replace me? i know i didn't have things perfect the first time, but i had never painted palm trees, limes, sharks, or shrimp before last week. and the whole time she is talking, i am thinking about all the "what if's". what if this woman does get the job? where are they going to put me? what if they can't find anything for me to do? does that mean they are just going to get rid of me all together? as i was driving down the watterson, i was so fucking hurt, nervous, shocked, disappointed, whatever horrible feeling you can think of i was that. but i couldn't think about it the whole time. i had to get some rest before work and all. i ended up sleeping for another hour and a half before getting ready for work.
so work. well work was same o same o. before i actually worked, i sat at a table and did a little homework. i also wrote out a things to go list along with a list of things i must remember to do. as i was looking through my bag for a pin, i ended up seeing my cell phone sitting right there on top of my wallet. i must have thrown it in my bag before i left the house because i was in a hurry. i usually remember at the last moment to take it out, if i put it in the bag by any chance, and leave it in the car but not tonight. those fucking guards suck at work. anyway, there wasn't anything i could have done about it. so i went on and worked like a normal person.
when the end of the night came, i had to go through the metal detectors before leaving like always. well the girl happen to notice something on the x ray that looked like a cell. so she pulled me into the guard shack and wrote some kind of a receipt. then she told me to take out all electronics out of my bag. the only other electronic that i had was my cd player. i tend to carry it with me for those long breaks that i have at school. but she had to take that as well and confiscate it. so i have neither thing and i won't be able to get that back until i show proof that they are mine. i have no cell phone bill to show so i have no idea what to do with that. i have nothing for the cd player because it was a gift.
oh and by the way, dell never came. they are scheduled to come today. who knows what time. they don't tell you.
lets just say i am not a very happy person right now. i knew tuesdays and thursdays were going to be rough, but i never imagined things to fall apart so badly. i am still under stress and frustration of my car being in the shop for almost two weeks now. my mother is constantly calling me at all times of the day telling me she needs money now, now, now. it never crossed my mind that i could so easily loose my job this soon. i mean i could be overexaggerating but i can't help but think of it.
i don't know. but i typed this up really fast and i am not going to type anymore. i am going to bed to get my three and a half hours of sleep and hope for a more promising tomorrow. i didn't do the things i wanted to do when i came home after work because i had to stop by my aunt's house to tell her to have the dealership call her with any updated information on the car. other than that, i can't imagine anyone else calling me. but i mustn't keep going. i hope everyone else has good days. just remember, don't let the negatives get you down.
