I am sitting here in Econ class after completing a tax worksheet, I was Cecil Brown...love that name by the way, ugh! Bored beyond belief, I could be playing mind numbing games on the computer, but I thought it was about time that I sit down and express my life to all you lovely people who care to read about it.
You probably all have heard my sob story about my job...but if you haven't, let me fill you in. This past Saturday, I found out from my boss at a meeting that we are closing our doors on November 30th. Having been with the store for a year and a half, I must say I was alittle devestated, ok maybe alot more then I would like to say. Pretty much in a nut shell, I went home after seeing my boss break down and did the same exact thing. The smartest thing I could have done was just suck it up and accept the fact that things like this happen in life and I will eventually find another job. But no...I had to sit in my room and blubber over how much my life sucks right now. In all actuality, it really does...How am I going to make money for the holidays (I am a minor and most businesses want people who can stay longer hours), pass the SATs, make sure I have excellent grades so I don't have to take semesters?? I am stressed out more then words can say. Not only that but some of the jobs I would like to work for are too far away, leaving the indentation in my mind that I won't be able to purchase that car now...definatly made this promise to myself that I would have a car my senior year, doesn't look to promising now does it. As much as I would love to ask for one for my birthday/graduation, I know the financial situation in my family and my parents are not in the best of spots to splurge for a gift like that for me. I truely don't blame them for this either, because I knew the rule of me buying my own car, but that dream is going to be shot to hell this year that's for sure. Really shitty stuff happens around the holidays, my grandparent's passing just 2 christmas' ago, getting our car stolen the Thanksgiving we first moved down here, living in my friends house because we sold our house but couldn't find another one to move into, and now losing my job. Why me? So what's next? Can't wait to unravel this years goodies...
So yeah, I was thinking about getting my girls together for a night in...I really need some moral support right now and watching movies, pigging out on crap food, and just laughing till we cry sounds soo good right about now. So Jenan, Samantha, Allison, Catherine...I will be calling you very soon after the holiday this week so we can hang out. We need to make that documentary Jenan! Recording our lives for somebody elses entertainment...haha!
Sorry about this weekend Andrew, I didn't mean to spoil your birthday.
So as I draw this live journal to a close...I reflect on how my life has been good to me...hah, oh fun times
