Been a while since I posted anything here. I just don't have time for anything. It's driving me crazy!

Lemme see...

I'm now officially 25 years old! And since it was on August 15 and I got my first check from the school I'm working now, it kind of felt like they celebrated my birthday. You know how weird it is to actually be paid on time? With a check that doesn't bounce? I went out with my boyfriend to eat and later to watch a movie and just drive around.

He's started his practice teaching. I've suddenly become his psycologist. It's just not his year. First he's gets that knee injury in June (he'll forever be suffering from that), he can't work until the doctors tell him it's okay to start working (so he hasn't seen a dollar since then) and then he gets told that the whole you get injured in the workplace and the insurance will cover it (plus they'll link it to work and you'll get paid) is a myth, so he won't see anything from that. And now, he's got nerves cause he has to finish now.

He's been there almost 8 years. He either finishes or I don't know if I'll stay with him. Sounds cruel and that I don't love him, but he's talking about dropping it when he's only one class away and things are not good around here to survive on one paycheck (and I refuse to have him leech off of my money). Maybe I wouldn't sound so mean if he thought of anything else besides videogames.

Hell, I like videogames (though I don't have time to play them anymore), but he lives and breathes them. I've seriously been jealous of a PS3 and that's not funny.

Anyways, he doesn't think he can make it. And I'm calling it 'bullshit' cause dammit, I made it (and I'm terrified of speaking to people) a lot of people that you could barely understand them talking in English made it. it's not really that hard, it;s just the paperwork that's kind of intimidating.

By the way, not kidding about me being terrified of talking to people I don't know. Ironic, since I'm now giving class with the teachers watching me (annoying). But that was one of the reasons I chose this career (I'm a closet masochist XD ).

And now to go back to what's been going on...

Oh, my car died (or is in a comma). It starts and then dies. There I was, going to pick my bioyfriend in Walmart so he could come with me to a school supply (he knows how to drive in that maze called Humacao) and to a gas station (it was already on the E) when the car starts making this weird sounds, and smoke actually comes out. I hoped it was the oils (shows how much I know about cars... but since I hadn't checked oils or coolant in more than three months, I thought I'd give that a try... along with a prayer). We all know how that went since I still had it towed (it's the compressor. And I'm hoping that's the name in English cause I don't feel like looking for it).

Anyway, there I was, stranded. my boyfriend knows as much as me about cars. And suddenly, every single guy that walked around offered their services as mechanics. Not that they knew anything, I'm sure they just felt like poking a car and getting dirty. It makes them feel all manly. The ones that didn't try to get dirty, felt it was their duty to tell everyone what they should be doing. Eventually, a towing truck came to help the guys in the car in front of us, who left their keys inside) and my boyfriend payed them to get my car home. (it's little things like that that show me he loves me XP).

They wanted me to get a loan and buy my aunt's Corolla, but hers doesn't sound so good. And we've got a car curse going around. First mom's car dies, a week later my car goes into a comma, two days later my sister's car dies horribly. Don't want to risk getting a loan having to fix it later.

On other news... I havent' had time to rp. And I don't want to leave it but I haven't done anything there lately. And it's not fair to Elita-mun to have to wait until I have time to get online and rp. And I've tried to get on. Literally fell asleep on my laptop both Wednesday and Thursday. In both occasions I remember turning the laptop on, blinking and finding two hours and a half (actually a lot more than that) have passed. Actually, on Wednesday, it was 10 when I turned on the laptop and I woke up at 4:30 AM. Thusday, I turned it on at 9:30 and I woke up at 2 AM. Not the longest 'blinks' I've done, since last week I was playing Oblivion (cause I bough Shivering Isles), blinked at 8PM and opened my eyes at 5AM. I think that was last Saturday. Anyway, don't want to leave the rp, but I just don't have any energy left in the nights. I barely have time for my emails (God, I need to check my mails *cries*)

And it's not the work, cause strangely the time flies (and I write on what little free time I have!), it's trying to cheer my boyfriend every single afternoon to get home and do the lesson plans that it's killing me... And the high heels (God my feet hurt D8)

On the good news (I'm going to make a list! YAY!):
- I've got money now O_O
- the federal check from hacienda came
- I've got Shivering Isles
- Watched Tropic Thunder and Death Race

Uhmm... There was a whole bunch of other stuff that I know I left out, but I just don't remember it right now. Still sleepy so...

If anybody actually reads this... NIGHT! (cause I almost fell asleep just now *sigh*)
