It's been a while since I've done one of these.
Well. My dad turned 53 this past friday, and I still have to get him a gift. He's been really nice to me this year, so I think I'll go to soccer locker and find him something he would like. It's pretty much because of him that I don't have to take out a gigantic loan this year.
So... the lawsuit that my mom filed like, last summer? Well, that didn't go through. But I guess my dad decided to act outside of his character and actually give me money for college. Alot of money, actually. So that makes me happy for not taking out any loans, my mom happy because my dad is paying alot more than she has to, and him happy that my mom won't be threatening him with any more suits. Yay, it all works out!
I'm still at my psychology job, yes. My boss has left town for 2 weeks, so he left me a bunch of work to do, yadda yadda yadda, same old.
Attaining a bartending job has proven to be extremely difficult. Restaurants only want people with proper experience, or they will start you on the floor. Red Lobster told me they wouldn't hire me as a bartender, but would be glad to hire me for a bussing position. NO THANK YOU. I'm going to start applying to catering companies; I've applied to one already. And not that I wouldn't work in a restaurant doing something other than bartending. I applied at a restaurant at the 9th floor of some downtown building, and they told me that they could possibly hire me as a server. It's a very nice restaurant, with a great view and a pool deck, even. I wouldn't mind working there.
Actually, I just emailed a new gay bar on south beach that was looking for bartenders and barbacks, and they would train. Pretty wild, but why not? We'll see.
Good things:
- I believe my acne is virtually non-existent. Thank god. Finally, as I am leaving my teenagehood. I also had a really good dermatologist this past year.
- I'm back to my 10th grade weight! It took a while to get back to it. Now to get into better shape.
- I've decided not to join marching band. This kind of sucks; I've always wanted to participate in the drum line. But I'll be joining the all male chorus instead! It's much less hours, and I need my hours.
I need to help my sister get a job, because she's too lazy to find one herself. I love her, but she should do these kinds of things herself. I have enough trouble finding a job for myself. Oh well.
I've determined to make it a goal to move to NYC soon after I graduate. It's going to happen!
Laundry calls.
