adjusting to my new life
so, i'm currently talking to mark devlin via AIM, which is nice. haven't talked to that kid in a while.
FeatherK: we're all praying for your safety
Immad2001: thanks it been getting dangerous here all of a sudden here for the first 4 months with nothing happening and bam
FeatherK: when do you get to get out of there?
Immad2001: i should be on leave march 15th for 2 weeks and then back to the hell hole until july
FeatherK: and then are you done with that place for good?
Immad2001: i hope lol
FeatherK: me too
Immad2001: yeah i will have lots of partys and you have to come to as many as possible lol
FeatherK: oh i plan on it! i'll pitch a tent in your living room
Immad2001: haha
Immad2001: that means you can drink more :-)
FeatherK: precisely!
in other news . . . mark is sick. good thing he has the week to rest. i wonder if he still plans on taking me target shooting this weekend though.
i need to figure out this financial aid shit still. school starts monday and i need financial aid or i have no clue how i'll afford to go to school. i still need to get my books. but i could probably wait until the first day of classes to worry about that. . .
i hate my job and want to quit. unfortunately i highly doubt that'll happen. i need this job.
i don't necessarily need the money.
for those who don't know, mark's dad offered me one of their cars to drive. apparently no one drives it since it's nick's car and he's away at school. but of course i'd pay for insurance while i use it and i'd pay for gas and oil and all that good stuff. so the job might be useful.
i have a check coming from my grandma (who set up an account for me when i was little) so that will give me more than a thousand dollars in my savings account.
i'll work the weekends and go to school and DI meetings during the week and save up to get my own car in the summer. then the village will be open and i'll work full time all summer.
this morning i really wanted to quit and just do the school thing. but i know i can do both. so many other people do. of course that means i'll have no social life and i'll see mark less and less. but i have class with him on monday and wednesday and i'll see him everyday this summer.
so . . . SAVE! SAVE! SAVE! that's going to be my motto this year. i'm going to work harder than i've ever worked before.
even though the accident and everything that happened to me in december made me think i was supposed to relax and take it easy. and my mom and grandmother don't think my dad will last much longer and originally wanted my schedule not to be so full so i won't have too much on my plate. so much for that idea.
and that is partially why this upsets me. money is the devil. we americans hold it above too many things. i was planning on having a more eastern view on my lifestyle and not let the materialistic world rule my life.
too bad that will never happen.
