I was shooting for 10 replies, but 9 will do ;)
So what has little ol' Angela been up to?
Well, thats quite the question, so first I'll explain why I disappeared for nearly 7 months:
I wanted to know how many of you would have something to say if I severed me biggest connection to you. LJ.
I know thats quite a horrible and selfish thing to do, but I was curious if you all cared.
And, well, I had 2 people mention to me they'd like it if I posted journal entries again without me having to ask them.
Sorry to put a damper on like that, but I thought I'd ought explain.
So, regardless, recap!:
I'm still holding down the same job at the craft store... Worked there a bunch over the summer and made some money.
Didn't do that much over the summer really... party here, party there, work work work.
Other than Matt, I hung out with Alice, Kayte, and Ryan the most I guess. Usual hang out people Emjay and Jay went to Australia for the summer, which was pooy- I missed them :(
Work is giving me more responsibilities than ever, but not really treating me a hell of a lot better for it. Kinda getting cranky at my boss here and there, but overall is it a job that is better than most minimum wage shit jobs, so I'll keep it, thanks. I just finished working 8 days in a row... one of them being a 11.5 hour day. 54 hours total. $470... rock!
Having turned 19 in April I've visted the bars now and then. The dancing is fun even if the music is absolute shit :)
Me and Matt are still together. I love the guy to bits. Its been about 2.5yrs :) Hes still at Malaspina University burying himself in studies. He's got so many classes on the go I don't see him quite as much as I'd like :(
I didn't quite finish my Commercial Accounting degree come April. I unfortunately missed some fine print so I had to go back to school. If I hadn't needed those classes, I would have "taken a year off" to work. I don't know how one "takes a year off" to WORK, but that was my plan anyway, until I found out I had to go back.
So throw in some turmoil about "Do I do this? Do I do that?" about further education while I get 2 more classes and you've got my education up until September.
Still living at home with my parents. I'm thinking about buying a car, but maybe not, given all the plans for cash splurging I've got here. I'd like to get a tattoo one of these days, and I'm planning on going to the Merritt Mountain Music Festival. For those who know about it, you'll know that it is mainly country music, and possibly wonder why I'd be going to a COUNTRY music show... well, if you know about it, I'll tell you this: I'm staying in Campground C.
Its basically a 6 day long party. Woohoo! :D
Not to mention because of the next paragraph, parents are planning on charging me room & board. Sooner or later.
So, back to September: I was to take 1 class each semester to finish my degree then figure things out from there (Not knowing what to do with my future after that...)
3 weeks into the class I figured out that chances were I'd fail, so I went to class one last time to ask my classmates how they felt about the class. "Well, the first time I took the class I failed horribly. I thought I'd do better the second time. Let's hope third times the charm!" For a class with a 60% fail rate (after half drops out?) I think the 40% are the ones taking the class for the third time. I decided not to waste my time with that. I dropped out. I'm a college drop-out! WHEE! I rock!
SoOOoooOOo, I have no clue what my future entails.
I don't really care about that though. But oh does every parental figure in my life disagree!
I'm so amused right now, my parents are so desperate that my dad suggested I apprentice as a tattoo artist under a buddy of his who is a well-known tattoo artist in Nanaimo.
You know when your parents SUGGEST (not just support!) you become a tattoo artist that they're desperate for you to do something with your life. Haha. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't considering it though.
