Late nights and Bordem...
School has started up again and I've already dropped a class. I was going to take Karate to keep in shape, but it turns out that my body had other plans. I ended up having some kind of stomach virus thing that kept me in bed for three days and it was so bad that i hadn't eaten a full meal in seven days. Thankfully, i got over it and eventually returned to normal, but the toll was already too much on my classes, and so since i could only miss three days of karate and i was just passing number two and it was two weeks into classes, i decided the smart thing would be to drop the class before something happened later and i didn't have the chance to drop it then. I'm still in three classes though which are Principles of Financial Acounting, Introduction to Formal Logic and Roman Civilization. I can say that two of those classes are interesting, and i'll leave it up to everyone to guess which two those are.
I forgot in the last update to mention my christmas. In the past few years, christmas at my house has been a sad affair which has done more to make me sad then cheerful. This year i can thankfully say that the chain of the past couple of years has been broken. Christine and i exchanged gifts and she got me an awesome waffle maker which i enjoy quite alot. I was so nervous about getting her a gift since i've never really gotten christmas gifts for anyone who wasn't in my family. Thanks to a good idea from my mom, i went to see a friend of Adam's whose father owns a jewlery shop and got christine a white gold necklace which i think she really likes. I also got her two movies (dude where's my car and Dodgeball). All in all, it was a very good christmas. Now all i have to do is come up with something that she'll enjoy for valentines day.
Work has been going really well. Again i just wish that the owners would put up the money to buy some commercial time because we still have no advertising. We've been open now for about three and a half months and still people think that we've only just opened. I feel that i've become something of a favorite to the managers there, probably owing to the fact that i never complain and am a hard worker (at least i think i am).
Christine and I have reached nine months and are still going strong. I even miss her right now since she's been with her friends on the other side of the state. I dread the days i have to sleep alone. Anyway, christine and i went to this steak place out by university mall and it was really good food, unfortunatly that was the time i was still sick so i barely ate anything, but i wasn't going to call it off just because i was sick. It's so funny because apparently christine isn't allowed to talk about how happy she is with me because everyone is jealous of our relationship. I definatly don't mind being the object of jealousy.
So here again is a deliema that has been brewing inside me for a while now. I once again have enough money to get a car. This time the problem is finding a car that i won't be sick with. I've given up with getting a car at a dealership mostly because since my credit sucks so bad i'd have to pay a rediculous monthly payment and i don't work enough for that. That leaves me with having to buy a car outright from someone. The problem is that i could end up with a really bad looking car or really old car. Also, it would help if i could go look at cars with my dad since he would be able to better tell me if a car is good or bad, but for some reason he is completly against helping me. Every time i want to go to look at cars he's got something else to do. I swear that they don't care about me since i moved out. Every one else's minor problems are apparently so much more important then when i have a really big problem. Then if i yell at them they act like it's my fault. A really good example is that last semester i had to drop alot of my classes because i didn't have a ride and my grades started slacking. My dad thought it would be nice to yell at me and tell me it was my fault, and yelled at me even more when i tried to say that it was his fault since he still has my car and i have to rely on rides to school. Anyway, the point of this paragraph is to say that this weekend would have been prime time to look at some cars before they get sold, and instead my parents were too busy yesterday and today they spent the day downtown for gasparilla and they didn't even think to invite me because for some reason my dad thought i was working today even though, last night when i talked to him, i TOLD him that i was NOT working today and wanted instead to go look at some cars. Thanks to my family for making me feel like i'm not part of it.
