My sister in law [well don't think she's technically my sister in law, she is my brother in law's sister and I don't think that actually counts as anything... whatever] she gave me an Adderall so I could stay up late tonight and study for my anatomy test tomorrow. Well its working very well, I'm not tired at all.
Except that I keep getting distracted by photos and myspace and dumb stuff like that. And well now livejournal is distracting too. Why does livejournal say that livejournal is spelled wrong? that's dumb.
I've still got like 5 hrs before the test. Thats enough time to read 3 chapters right?
OMG ASHLEY YOU FAIL
So yeah, I'm doing the summer school thing. For 5 weeks I took Anatomy and Physiology I [June 9 - July 12 I think it was] M-F 8am class, with a 2+ hr lab afterwards M-W. Then I still had my job to do, but since I was in school I wasn't doing that as much as I should have been, I kept giving up shifts and the like. Then like a week before the class ended I found out that A&P II was full for the fall so I'd have to take it in summer school too ... so make that 10 straight weeks of that schedule and another $600 to pay for it. D: I got a B in A&P I though, and that was without any sort of curve or anything so I'm pretty happy with it. That and it was just nice to pass a class for the first time in a year [I didn't actually fail any mind you, I only finished 1 in that time frame though and I got a D+, which isn't a fail, but I don't really consider it a pass either] So now I'm doing this school stuff, and I think I'm on course to get a B again, this teacher curves but I'm not studying as much as I was before. I've actually been kinda sucking for the last 2 weeks [well see, here I am in lj land when I should be reading]
So since I wasn't working much during the first class I'm all sorts of poor right now I'm trying to work my ass off to get money, but well the economy sucks so 10% is pretty much the average for tips these days. It sucks a lot. Same crappy people, less money. Great. I should start working in the kitchen again, I get paid the same there no matter what the customers do - well thats still less than I get with crappy tips so scratch that. I'll deal w/ crappy people for 25 hours a week, its really not that difficult. I still end up averaging like $17/hr so thats not bad I guess.
Lets see, what else has been going on in Ashleyland. I've been dealing with issues of the boy sort for the last 2 months, and thats been driving me CRAZY. Boys can be so freaking annoying sometimes. And I've learned that being in love is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. But on the other hand, I finally got to fall in love and that was kinda cool. Well and I work with the boy so all that drama bled over and is making drama at work for ma and frankly I'm just sick of dealing with it. I hate my job, and now I've learned that most of the people I work with are two faced gossipmongers and I really don't like any of them anymore. I've lost a lot of my work friends to random drama in the last year - but I guess that means that they just weren't that great of friends to begin with. But they were the main group of people I was hanging out w/ for a long time, and I did consider them more than just work friends. The really important ones are still around, so thats nice. So basically I can't stand most of the people I work with. Then I work w/ 3 of my siblings - yeah its horrible - and they were involved in a lot of the gossipmongering and telling people that I have to work with things I told them in confidence BECAUSE THEY'RE MY FREAKING SIBLINGS and you know I should be able to trust them. But no. So then that led to all sorts of family drama - and well since my mom died in January my home life as been a little shaky for a while anyway. Its really weird for me that my step dad has a girlfriend - and has since March I think, maybe it was even late February, I don't remember exactly when she showed up. [ha and its even weirder when I tell someone something about her and I'm all like, "yeah my step dad's girlfriend" cus that just doesn't sound right lol]
So for right now I'm going to try to concentrate on getting this class over with with a good grade, then I'm going to go find a second job [and maybe another one to replace the current one] and I'm going to save up as much money as quickly as I can. As soon as I hit a certain amount I'm going to put in my 2 weeks and move across the country to live with my grandpa in New York. I've been planning on moving there for like 3 years now, its just finally the time to do it. Though it will be weird cus the boy was supposed to be going with me when I was planning on going this summer. And well I still don't know where things are with him [we're not together anymore, but well things are complicated and I'm just gonna leave it at that], and he doesn't know how soon I'm planning on going. I don't think he'll want to go w/ me anymore though, but in reality thats probably not going to be too bad for me. I need my fresh start.
I feel like I'm kinda running away from everything, but really, I've been planning this move pretty much since I graduated high school [which was 3 years ago now, ick I'm starting to feel old and that should not be happening at 21] All the drama going on right now is just making me feel like I really need out of Vegas [and most people that I've been talking to agree with me] so its not really running away. Its just what I need to be doing right now.
But also b/c of all the crap in my life I'm definitely falling back into internet escapism a lot more in the last few weeks. So I'll probably be much more active on livejournal for a while. I'll definitely have to weed out my flist to see what I even still want to read haha, I haven't been active on livejournal in like a year and a half. I'm sure theres probably some Harry Potter crap that I really won't care about as much anymore. Don't get me wrong, HP is still great, but I'm just not as into it as I was before book 7 - and though since I haven't been around much I can be sure about this, but I'd imagine that the fandom has probably died down a bit in the last year anyway.
So whats been going on dear flist? Anything interesting on the great interwebs? Anything fun and exciting [or anything at all I guess] been going on in your lives? Any interesting websites, fanfiction, new fandoms, new anything that I should be aware of? Anything of interest IRL like books or movies? I'm bored w/ my life lol.
I really do miss livejournal so much D:
