    Hello life, my name is Sarah.

So I'm an official adult now.  I live outside of my parents home, I have job and I have joined the gym.  I am part of the working class.  Hooray. 
Now lets go and point out the flaws of this horrible plan and why they will soon destroy me.
I work at the Olive Garden as a hostess making 7.50 an hour at part time (cuz  olive garden is made of a bunch of jews who refuse to give you more than seven hours a day....and even that much is hard to come by)  Now the location I work at just happens to be two bus rides away.  Not that far, you say?  Well on that I'll agree with you....if I had a car.  I have to pay 2.50 every morning to get to work and once you do that everyday, six days a week the money adds up and its pretty expensive.   And its really hard to find that much change every freakin morning.   (not including the trip home.  I can usually find a ride home by then)
Needless to say I need a new job.  Desperately.  One that is only one bus trip away or in walking distance.  I applied at the gym today and I'm really hoping that goes well.  I need a full time job that'll pay me more than 7.50.  Oh dear jesus I need a better job.
My doctor and emergency room bills are pretty much slaughtering me.  Its like they shoved their fist into my chest, pulled out my heart and then billed me for it.  Instead of billing me for the entire thing they're sending me multiple small bills that I can slowly pay off (thank god) but even that fucking sucks.  My mother said she would help me and I'm going to ask Joshua if he will help too.  The child was half his, the least he can do is help me pay for half of its death.  (crudely put, yes - but the truth)
So let me see....if I work my ass off and do a lot of sweet talking at olive garden I can get a pay check every week coming out to about 200.  ...now with my bills, utilities and necessities (shampoo, soap, toothpaste, etc.)  I'll only have about  100. out of every paycheck to actually go into my savings or to buy food.  That isn't including the medical bills or anything though.  All that is coming out of my savings.                  I'm never going to eat.         >_>

Well other than the obvious money, job and stress troubles I'm fairly happy.  I'm finally living on my own, I'm being smart about what little money I have and I know that if things ever get really bad I have good friends around me to help pull me back to my feet. 
Life is hard. 
But what would we learn if it wasn't?

Hello life, You Suck.
