ah sweet livejournal, how i've neglected you, and yet here you are still waiting patiently for my fingers to grace the keys and tell you a story. my how things have changed since my last entry. i am no longer a raging complaining maniac but instead, i've made peace with the chaos that is my life. i still get stressed out when dealing with the teenage girls and their issues during cheerleading practice, but i'm learning to shake it off and not take it too personally. i'm still dragging myself to class and working far too often. it's the thought of the day when classes will be done and i will quit my job at zehrs to work full time at marineland for the summer that allows me to grin and bear it. yes it's true, i've decided that the extra money that two jobs would grant me is no comparison to the fun time that i will have with my marineland friends this summer, not to mention that having actual days off will be a wonderful change for me. i am no longer going to ireland in june, which is both a let down and a huge relief. i was so looking forward to escaping for a couple weeks and having a pint of guinness at McDonnell's with some of phil's old friends and family. i could spend an entire day quietly listening to irish people speak and be perfectly content. unfortunately all this will have to wait another year as phil wont have his permanent resident card in time, therefore he would not have been allowed back in the country. plus its not a good time for either of us to be escaping anything. phil is starting to really fix up his car, so all of his money will be draining into that project for a while now. not to mention that i could definitely benefit from some extra cash sitting in my bank account. all in all, i feel very happy at how everything is turning out. i still have exams, competitions and wedding events coming up, but i've decided that whatever happens, happens. i think my new found peace is thanks to my new favourite band, sleep the season. you guys are amazing and you should all be very proud of yourselves. you've come so far in so little time. i'm just happy that i get to watch more and more people fall in love with your music.
