Play dead dear. It's your only hope of pulling through.
I don’t think updated recently because of all my projects I did. The one took me all weekend from start to finish and in the end it turned out to be 24 pages. I think I did a pretty damn good job if you ask me. Then this week was finals. I wish I could say they went good. They probably went as bad as I could have thought they could, believe me. All I can hope now is pray and hope.
Anyways, besides tests I went to see my cousin today. He is working at an animal shelter now. All he does now is look after the dogs and cats all day long. It looks like he has it pretty easy. He works 10 hours a day for 6 days a week. If anyone doesn't know by now he is in jail in Mount Pleasant for a couple more months. Since he has a bunch of community service hours they give him a job. He was working at some fairgrounds doing hard labor, but now it looks like all he does is boss people around. How ironic. I've visited him a couple times before but this time we got to sit down and actually eat lunch and talk, he's doing a lot better then before. I told him I would bring him lunch one more last time before I leave tomorrow, so it looks like he's getting taco bell again.
After my English class tomorrow, since we don't have a final, I'm finally going home. I'm driving Tony home too, one last time. I started moving whats left of my crap from my room. I pretty much have the car super-packed with our junk. I can’t wait to relax all summer and hang out with the guys. I’m more than excited.
This weekend I need to stop by Chuckecheese and check my schedule. I called up there a couple days ago and they said they would put me in the schedule again. I'm hoping for good hours. My manager asked me if I wanted to start doing full time kitchen, which means more hours. Hopefully they fire the opener so I can take over morning hours. That would be sweet. I get my 3 years gift in June, how exciting. I'm also excited to be working for Brandon over the summer, it will give me some variety.
I've also been thinking about getting rid of my Grand Am. Last year right after I graduated my Taurus's transmission blew and I bought the Grand Am with all my money. Now I'm looking at how expensive it is and how much I can save by driving a cheaper car. Since I liked the Taurus so much I might go back to that. We got a new transmission for it and never sold it because it was the winter so we were waiting for this spring, so I still have it around the house. We'll see though. I think I'm going to jump in it and drive it around a bit, to see if I really miss it. It had such great pickup for being a Taurus. It was quick. It's no v4 too.
I downloaded got the new Ben Folds "Songs for Silverman" album. I've been listening to a lot of Ben Folds lately. He has crazy talent with a sweet voice. Plus, he is able to do one of my goals in life.. play a piano. There is nothing like relaxing to Ben Folds and having the whole summer in front of you. If you like Ben Folds stuff you might want to get it, but I don't think it's the best of his work. Just about every Ben Folds/Five CD shows raw talent. Try and listen to them if you want to be inspired sometime.
I'm not sure what to think of the past year. Not even 12 months ago I was in high school still. A full year have swung by and recently people have been asking me "Do you believe it has been a year?" ... Yes. I do. I guess for some people things have not changed so much like it has for me. A lot of the people I used to talk to are now just screwing their life up or headed in the wrong direction. I wish everything would work out for the better, but I guess that's life. I look back and there are only several old-time-friends I keep in touch with since high school, and believe me, they mean a lot. I'm not the type of person who I really rely on my friends much but lately things have changed, I have changed. I've also made so many friends over the year. Just the other day my friend Calli wrote a journal about her experience over the past year and she wrote probably one of the nicest things ever anyone has about me. It kind of got me thinking about a lot of this. On top of all that the college life has just been crazy. Sure it's fun, but I can't help but think is this what I really want? There are so many things I want to do, and I just want to start off in the right direction, but I don't know where to start. I guess some may say.. "it already started, you’re in college" .. but then, that’s where I ask myself, is this how I should start?
I hope you all enjoyed this nice long post.
