It's the bee’s anterior cruciate ligament
Has it really been that long since I've written in this? I appolgize friends; I never intended to deprive you of your reading enjoyment for so long.
Warning: The below is a mixture of ranting about my father, and some stuff I bought. Ranting in paragraph 1 and 4, buying in 2 and 3.
This summer has been kinda weak so far. As most of you know I am still jobless, despite the best efforts of myself, and the misguided efforts of my parents. Oh well. My dad is pissed that I didn't get a job at KFC of Wendy's. The way I see it, $16 an hour last summer, plus $0 an hour this summer ~ $8 an hour over two summers, which is averge. I'm not going to get a $6.25 an hour job frying chicken to make him feel better and get maybe half time. It's not worth the time, it's not worth the hastle. Having him constantly bring it up is frustrating to say the least. At least he's paying me to mow his lawn.
I havn't spent too much money this summer either. Anyone who knows how I spend money knows I save up and then buy. I'm never in over my head, and I usually think a while before doing it. Yes, I ordered a laptop, but this is something i've wanted since October. plus at $600, it's thrifty for what it comes with. Plus, it will be useful for a while. I chock it in with college expences. I've spent more on books that i've never opened.... (p.s, it showed up 20 minutes after writing this, and is sex)
I'm going to Florida with Steve in July. It should be a whole metric crap ton of fun. I've been itching to travel, and it should be a lot of fun. It should be cool to acutally have time to do things while i'm there. For first it was a lot of running around and not much free time. Yes, more money is being spent. Questions: Who cares? Answer: Not me! Money is to be spent. I'm going to enjoy the few years of freedom I have left.
I think the thing that really pisses me off is that my dad is so vehemently againt student loans. As it stands, I'll need about $15,000, and have already gotten $5,000. I don't see loans as a bad thing. Sure, they are a burden that needs to be dealt with when I graduate but they are MY problem. I could probably get out with only $5,000 if I emptied my savings account and penny pinched. I'd rather have some stuff to live on when I graduate and not lower my standard of living (which isn't that high, really). I'm better off than most, and I have no problem taking loans. I'm dealing with it fine, grow up.
It's a wierd sort of summer in that people aren't doing too much. We havn't done terribly much. Lauren is in Europe, currently London I believe. Christine is leaving on tuesday to go to Engalnd as well. Then Steve and I are going to Florida. Friends all over the place.
I havn't done much this summer either. I've been playing a lot of kingdom hearts, which has sucking in about 100 hours of life. I've also slowly been working on the new Circle K website (http://trashed20.dyndns.org/newckwebsite/divtest/index.html if anyone cares to peep the progress). I've talked to people before aobut wanting to do a cool website or computer program that would be useful and amazing, but i've yet to come up with cool ideas. Input is welcome. Other than that i've been washing a lot of dishes, mowing a lot of lawns, and cooking a lot of dinners.
21st birthday is next weekend. Not sure what's going on yet but it should be cool no matter what happens. Yay alcohol.
I think I'm done ranting and raving about this and that. I will go consume quiznos now. tata friends.
