So even though nothing is going on, I feel like updating.
Talked about how much money I have to give to school last night. My dad predicted that my mom is going to not pay anything, and even though she is this year, I can tell that she's going to back out of that responsibility before I graduate. She's paying $5000, and feels like that's "more than her fair share." I am contributing $4500 (plus taking out a $3500 loan) and I make around $250 a month as my income during the school year. It seems really selfish of her to say that she's contributing too much when I'm basically paying the same amount and I obviously make far less money than she does. I know that it's MY college and so I should pay for it, but she's also my mom and I'd like her to help me out financially because I'm unable to pay for everything myself. She was giving us a bunch of bull about how she has a house payment and stuff...but my dad pays her spousal support to cover that kind of thing. She just seems so selfish sometimes.
Anyways, on a more positive note, me and sister are going to the suuuper state fair today. I haven't been there in a few years and can't remember exactly what one does at the state fair...like, walk around and look at stuff I guess. oh, and eat funnel cakes. There's rides and shit, but I think I'm afraid to go on rides at the fair cause the people operating them are hobos off the street.
I'm leaving for school in six days (meh.) and I guess I could start packing certain RETARDED items that I brought home (like sweaters...seriously, what was I thinking? It hasn't been below 85 here all summer, a wool turtleneck was so unnecessary). Unfortunately, I suck at packing. When me and nicolle packed me up to go home we were literally just stuffing stuff into the suitcase anywhere it would fit. Those fuckers were packed as tight as they could be packed. Luckily my dad is coming out with me, so we can have 6 suitcases of my junk (minus however much room my dad needs for his stuff). Going out won't be a problem. Coming HOME will be. But that's not for 9 months so not gonna worry about it.
Okey shower time.
