...everything, on our own. -Snow Patrol "Chasing Cars".
I love that song. It's my ringtone for when Eric calls me. I smile every time I hear the song.
So yeah. I'm in Tampa now. We left at like 830 this morning, got here around 10ish. Mom and Amanda, as well as Eric, came with me. It took forever to check-in. I couldn't find the damn check-in building. I had to do a lot of running around. I didn't have my ID yet and that's a very important thing to have. I can't get into my building without the card. And then I have a key to get into my apartment. Yeah, it's a fun process I'm going to have to remember.
We moved everything into the apartment. Come to find there are only three people in the place right now. I was instucted to where my room was and of course, that was the one with someone already in it. She's cool though. We seem to be pretty similar. Thankfully.
I got as far as unpacking my clothes before I decided I was too hungry to do anything else. Plus, it was like 130pm at that point. Definitely time to eat. We went to Jason's Deli and I finished nearly all my food. I was quite happy with myself. Although I felt it within a matter of 30 mins. I'm beyond sick of eating out. I think I've gone out just about every day this week. Ick.
Mom took me to the super Walmart and I got food, dishware, and silverware. Plus, a couple other things I needed. She paid for everything. Well, everything except what Eric managed to sneak on his bill. This made me very happy, since I have no job and I'm nearly broke. I had to pay for my first month in the apartment since all my financial aid hasn't gone through yet. Yeah... not so great. Between Mom and Eric I'll survive until I can get a job and get everything together.
I'm so pissed I had to shell that out. I was so proud of myself because I had saved up a good amount before I left. And there most of it went. GRRRR!
And I don't have a job because the managers over there weren't on the ball with things. So I got screwed over. That's okay. I can be reactivated within 30 days so I WILL be in their faces until I get a job. They told me that I wasn't going to have a problem getting the position because they needed people and the manager had already said it was fine. Yeah... someone slacked off. RAWRR!
They left around 7pm. I told Amanda and Mom bye first. My mother started crying. That was expected. The I told Eric goodbye. That was difficult. I cried so hard and I couldn't stop. I hate it. I'm with him nearly every day, and now I can't. I know I'll be fine. It's just going to take some getting used to. I miss him already.
Aunt Dawn, Uncle Scott, and the kids are in town this weekend so I might get to see them. Weee!
I've been up since 630am and it's not 1145pm. Time for bed.
