(no subject)
I have basically sold my soul to the devil for a bit higher then minimum wage. Here's my work schedule for next week:
Mon - close
Tue - close (wil try to take Tue off in exchange for Thur)
Wed - open, then come back at 5 to close
Thur - off
Fri - close
Sat - open till 3
Sun - 8:30 to 3
Hopefully this will give me at least half of my car insurance payment (probably not though, taxes are a bitch). I hate all this grades and bill stress, and I haven't even started shopping for presents yet! This Christmas is going to be SO boring. Last year, I spent the holidays with my family in Russia, but this year we're not going anywhere, so I'm stuck in MD. Amar is leaving for Costa Rica next Sat, and he's not coming back until right before New Year's. Everyone else's got families and stuff to do, besides, Christmas is a family holiday and I swear, mine is the only family that does not celebrate it AT ALL. Like, we don't give presents or do dinner or anything like that. And its not like we're stern Orthodox religious and won't celebrate Catholic holidays. My parents are just too Russian for their own good. They have Russian friends and shop at the Russian store for groceries, and I guess they feel awkward here in America. And I guess I just want to be like everybody else. I have a love-hate relationship with being Russian, because it makes me stand out and I like that, but sometimes I fear that it makes me stand out in a bad way, like it makes me inferior. Sometimes I fear that I lead a boring life; like there are a lot of unique - I guess - things that have happened to me, but to me my life is pretty mundane. There is really no way to justify that besides me always wanting to be the same as everyone else but also stand out; stand out without being really different ... I think I've watched too much Disney Channel for my own good.
