BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW it's hot.

That said, I HAVE EXCITING STORIES/NEWS FROM REAL LIFE:

Uh, firstly, I'm not dead. I bet you're all thrilled<3 but i swear to god if my mother bitches at me for being whatever she thinks i happen to be at the time one more time i am going to... do nothing, really. less than a month and a half now, though i still have to pack and get some stuff, etc....

KLJFDHKJHFK I have to get my immunization record turned in by the end of July for UVM. This isn't a problem except I'm mortally terrified of phones and talking on them. When my doctor heard that I was going to be in pre-vet studies, or pre-med if I didn't make it into that, she said that it would be "great" if I interned with her over the summer. COMPLETELY UNPROMPTED. My doctor is so cool. O______O

While looking over the forms for immunization, etc., I noticed that those going to medical school and nursing school have to get special immunizations. I hadn't really thought about it, but it makes sense. One thing that kind of made me go 'buh?' was the fact that mental illness wasn't one of the drop-down options in the family history section. Depression, yes. Schizophrenia, bipolar, etc.? Nope. Weird. I'd definitely want to know who was mentally ill in general rather than just who happened to be suicidal-on-purpose. I'm fairly sure that's super-politically-incorrect, but I'm feeling too ratty right now to care.

AT WORK THERE IS THIS FUGLY OLD DRUNK GUY THAT'S ONE OF THE CARETAKERS OF THE GRAVEYARD I GO THROUGH TO GET TO LIKE BASICALLY HALF MY TOWN. I FRATERNIZE WITH HIM BECAUSE IF I DON'T HE SPENDS HALF AN HOUR OR MORE IN THE STORE. OH YEAH I MEAN HE'S A CUSTOMER AT MY GAS STATION. THE POINT AND WHY I'M SCREAMING IS THAT I MADE THE MISTAKE OF TALKING WITH HIM NEXT TO THE LITTLE DEBBIE SHELF INSTEAD OF OVER THE NORMAL COUNTER (my coworker was running register and I was chilling) AND HE PUT HIS HAND OUT LIKE HE WAS GOING TO SHAKE SO I PUT MINE OUT TOO AND THEN

THEN

he kissed my hand

i am still faintly scarred

i washed my hand so fast

In my second job, which is basically summer camp with lots of painful farming thrown in (though I like hand-weeding and harvesting for Farmer's Market and the service sites, which is where we drag loads of veggies or just ourselves somewhere and DO SUM SHIT), I have gotten so tan. So tan. Seriously. You think farmer's tan is funny? I WILL MAKE YOU LOL.

It's oh god hot.

I get ridiculous amounts of free vegetables, though. Seriously. I took home three zucchini yesterday and would probably have had more but I'm home sick with the sniffles. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DRIBBLE ON PRODUCE.

....I was sad, though, because Wednesday is my favorite day- to market, to market, and also lots of left-over veggies<3. Tomorrow is mentoring with the kids again, which is kind of a weird experience because even though I don't like kids that much, they really seem to like me. And cling to me. And listen to meeeee. Whatever. It works, and it means my workgroup gets to run around teaching kids stuff about plants instead of doing a work block. Yeah, Thursdays are my work group's slacker day, what can I say.

I don't get paid for my second job until about the end of this month (which really pisses me off but whatever... something about putting some of us into a backlogged database, boo) BUT I get my 4th of July paycheck tomorrow~<3 WHICH MEANS I WILL BE SUPER-RICH. *3* I'm planning to make a cool kind of quilt, but it needs stuffing, so I'm going to go down to Wally World (if it's not too hot) tomorrow WITH MAH MAD MUNNIEZ and buy a bag of stuffing.

Last bullet, I swear: When I do get my first paycheck for the farm job, I'm planning on getting a PSP with part of the money. I did the math and, with the extra time I always seem to pull for my slacker coworkers at my gas station, I'm working full-time. I kind of feel like it's a waste of money, but given how much love and use my DS has seen, I know it won't be. I feel guilty for spending so much money, but at the same time (er, once I pay my mother August's rent) I'm kind of going to HAVE a lot of money. Don't get me wrong- almost all of it's going into savings. But the portion I reserve for snacks, buying supplies for lunch, and ~fun money~ (about 1/4 of a check) can certainly go to something like a PSP.

sdkjfhksadjfdsfg I LIED THIS IS THE LAST BULLET okay so I got EXTRA~~~ scholarship money for school. Which means that I might be able to get a laptop with that ~~~extra~~~ money. *______* I feel kind of happy, and smart because all of my scholarships are merit-based, though many have need thrown in too. THE BIGGEST ONES ARE ALL MERIT-BASED THOUGH HOMG.
