I can't believe I've only been here for 3 hours...

It seems like a lifetime.

So yesterday I got to talking to my mom about my future and what I want to do. And although I work hard and I'm in school, I've just kind of been figuring things out as I go along. I haven't even really thought what I want my life to be like and what I want to do. I mean, I know that my dream job is to work with/around music, but that's as far as I've gotten. I don't know in what capacity I want to do this, I just know that's what I want. So my mom suggested that I quit my job after this summer and focus on finishing my degree. So basically she just offered to pay all my bills and give me spending money so I can focus on school, which is the complete opposite of everything she's done up until now. Now, I haven't talked to her about this specific idea, but I did have an idea of what I want to do. I want my mom to pay my bills while I continue taking internet classes while touring with a band (most likely Mat Kearney) selling merch. You see, Mat basically offered me and/or Monique a job as a merch seller, but he didn't really because he can't actually afford a merch seller. But I just see this opportunity as a sort of internship where I can develop connections and gain experience. So I emailed Adrian yesterday (Mat's tour manager), and now I'm just waiting for a reply.

I'm really hoping this works out, because I am so sick and tired of my job. I literally have no work to do. I'm just glad that my mom is helping me out for the next couple of months so that I don't have to work as much. It's weird, we're actually getting along really well right now.

So I'm gonna go do the math and figure out all the money and everything, so that I'm not just diving into anything. These next 3 hours are gonna be killer.
