I'm already tired of being home. I'm trying really hard to pick my battles with my mom and sister but it's hard and I don't know how I'm going to make it through the summer. My mom really doesn't seem to graspt the concept that I'm almost 22 and I can take care of myself. It's really frustrating how overly critical she is of a lot of things I do or want to do. but again, trying to pick my fights this summer.
On a happier note - I did significantly better in my classes then I thought I was going to. Like I honestly was scared of falling below of 2.0 - not even joking. And with one still out I'm currently sitting at a 3.25 so that's pretty awesome. I know that one that hasn't been put up yet is going to be bad so it'll go down, but I'm still really surprised since I did a grade better than I even thought was possible in 3 of my classes. And my soc GPA is not almost back to a 3.5, so that makes me happy.
Brian's back from China. I won't be able to see him till probbaly July though so that kinda sucks. My mom is always telling my how horrible of a friend I am to people (even though she really has no clue how much I do with and for my friends up at school) but then when I say I want to drive to Minneappolis to see one of my best friends who's been in another country the past year she tells me that's a bad idea and to just wait and I can see him later. But then gives me lectures on how I don't hang out with nicki more - even though she lives 3 blocks away and I see her more than anyone else...and we just end up doing the same stupid shit everytime. So that's really more of a rant about my mom than how happy I am that Brian's back...but I'm really happy to have him back here.
Ben comes back in a few days so that just adds to my happiness. I like having friends within a few hundred miles instead of halfway around the world. Even if I do end up working at Hales Corners and being able to bike to work to save gas money I'm thinking that's all going to be more than made up for by taking trips to see him and going to La Crosse a few times though. Such is life I guess. It's worth it.
Early open at Cool Waters is alright so far. Got a little sunburned today, but not too bad. I'm in charge at Pulaski on thursday. We have off that day at GE so at least I'll be getting a few more hours but I really hate it there. It's more that I really hate walking barefoot on wet tile. I think it goes back to swimming and walking on dirty wet tile all the time - I just really hate the whole idea of it. But it's money and so I can suck it up for a few hours. And then next week I have first responder refresher so that'll get me away from the pool for a few days.
