Today I turned in my application for graduation. AHHH! As happy as I will be to graduate ACC, I hold no bitterness whatsoever. I've had a good start on a college education there. Community colleges aren't so bad, people. Core classes suck, but that's true no matter where you go.

I am in the process of setting up a paid internship at Harris, Karstadt, Jamison & Powers. I'll be working under Jamison, who does a little bit of everything the firm does; insurance bad faith, personal injury (defense, THANK GOD) and construction defect. I can't WAIT to get started!! Somewhere, a part of me is nervous. It'll be the first situation where the work I do actually means something, and the work is important to me as well as who I work for, so.... yay!

I'm going to work in a fucking LAW FIRM in less than a year. It really is true that I won't be stuck in retail all the way through college! HELL YEAH! And new car? Oh my god, new car in a year and a half or so!! Mazda 3-s, 160 hp, either red or blue (hopefully blue) with tinted windows and a rear wing spoiler... here I come! You be ready for me..

I'm going to start writing the entrance essay for the Women's College at DU. I've chosen the one about a mentor or role model, and I know just who I'm going to write about. I've already filled out the application, I've printed out a resume, all I need is that essay, a letter of recommendation and a transcript. Then, I should receive that beautiful acceptance letter in the mail because they'll love me and my grades and that I'm a member of Phi Theta Kappa.

I'm really living on my own. Working my ass off, and I wake up cranky and sleepy most mornings, (wow I hate working until 10) but I'm doing well. Going back to the home neighborhood always gets me a little nostalgic, and I'll desire that care-free, easy life of being a kid, but you know? This life (where everything you own you earned) is so much more rewarding.
