been a while...
I've failed at updating this.
My Asia trip was fabulous - such an experience. I have no real interest in returning to Shenzhen (mainland China was boring), but I'd love to go back to Hong Kong and Taiwan - hell I'd love to LIVE in Hong Kong. Tons of pictures on Facebook for interested parties.
Tomorrow is my last day at Starbucks - my shift ends at 4 and my mom has an interview at 5:30, hahaha. I really was just tired of all the crap and wanted to be able to enjoy the rest of my summer rather than work 30 hour work weeks, which was the only way I could keep the job. A good experience, and hopefully my mom will get hired so I can use her discount =)
I got a credit card. And I'm SO CONFUSED as to how I pay for stuff with it. I just booked a round-trip ticket to LA and bought a new IPOD on it... but I really don't understand how I actually pay with it. Thankfully I've got 0% interest for the first 6months so I've got a little more time to figure it out I guess.
Orientation is next week. I'm freaking out about getting classes and really should be studying for the chemistry placement exam, but really don't have the motivation.
I'm fricking sick. My arthritis is going absolutely nuts. My right arm and hand are borderline useless. My jaw is visibly swollen on the left side. I'm tired, achy, and ridiculously cranky. And my current medication isn't working. THIS IS NOT OKAY.
Going to LA to visit wonderful roommate Madisen at the beginning of September (purchased on the credit card I don't understand). Then, going to Ashland with my mom for a few days in September - just like the last 4 years! Going to see Henry VIII, All's Well That Ends Well, and Mucho Ado About Nothing - plus I'm making her take the backstage tour.
Ben home in less than two weeks. Thank you thank you thank you. Especially since Matt and Erica just left for a week, I have no calming presence. However, I do get to look forward to time with Jenna and Gwyn this weekend, neither of whom I see/talk to enough - perhaps they will be calming? Well, good fun either way. But Ben home means Amy stress level gets cut in half - he just kind of has that effect.
That's more or less everything in my life right now... I'll be a much happier person next Sunday. No more work, orientation done (along with that placement exam!), Matt, Erica, and (most importantly) Ben all home. Will have had another doctor's appointment, hopefully resulting in some physical improvements. Etc. Life is okay, and only going up. So... yah. Now you know (Bill Nye, anyone?)
