ugh.....
I GOT A PUPPY! she's a dachsund and her name is Penny. However this means that we unfortunately have to give away my golden retriever. But I got a call tonight from my friend Kristi and to make a long story short....she heard that we were giving Sammie away and her family decided they wanted him! So yay! I can still visit him! but ya the puppy is cool i guess...she chews a lot....on me. but ya...
I'm going to Seattle/Bellevue on Labor Day weekend with my mom and hopefully Catherine to go shopping and my mom is having the lasik eye surgery over there. So i hope that goes really well for her. I feel so weird for being like "I'm going to Seattle to go shopping"....cuz I'm not really like that but...a girl needs clothes right? And they might as well be cute and from the other side of the state.....
I was supposed to hang out with Travis tonight but....he didn't call me so....big surprise huh? I didn't figure he would but I still get nervous waiting for him to call....because I'm 12. And I don't really even like the boy anymore....but he is one of my best friends so it's kind of annoying when he ditches out and doesn't even have the decency to call and let me know that he's being an ass....yep.
I auditioned for this movie like 2 weeks ago just for fun and uh....I got a callback. Yep I could be "Student #1" in a low budget independent film....are ya jealous? lol
I'm pretty ready for school to start. As much as I enjoy working 35 hrs. a week....I'm ready to be a high school student again in stead of resident ice cream artist...though I am still working during school cuz money is sort of a necessity in this cold harsh world.
My mom and I had the college discussion again today. I'm supposed to go and talk to....well I dont' actually know her exact title but somebody with admissions at Whitworth about my sub par SAT scores and GPA so I can ensure admission. However, I have decided that I am going to apply to other colleges of choice and see how that goes. Mainly Sarah Lawrence, Western and this one in Oregon that I hardcore can't remember the name of. I need to start looking into good liberal arts colleges too...keep my options open. Because I think (think being the operative word here) that I've finally nailed down my top 2 career choices. Either a high school english teacher/counselor or an editor for a publishing company. So we'll see how that goes for me. But she (my mother) is still convinced that I shouldn't live in the dorms. I really don't see any reasons why I shouldn't....in fact here are my reasons for believeing that I should:
1) living right on campus has it's obvious advantages
2) we're getting my full college tuition for free so...paying for boarding shouldn't be that large of a deal
3) not having to go EVERYWHERE with my mom and feeling guilty for not watching TV with her
4) it's got to be a good way to meet new people
5) freedom
6) what am I going to use my grad. money for if not things to put in my dorm (ignore books and fees and things)
Cheers,
Shawna
