I like it here. I finally feel comfortable in this city, maybe too comfortable? I've made some really good friends through school and work. School is going really well, I'm on the floor everyday cutting/coloring peoples hairs. I love it and so do they! I recently quit my job. So, I'm pretty much broke at the moment. I couldn't stand it there though. The owners were just horrible people, always making us feel bad, and I didn't want to deal with it. It was such a weird feeling once I quit (and still is 2 weeks later). I go to school until 4:30, and then I'm free to actually hang out with my friends. Sometimes I feel useless, and sometimes it's nice to be able to do what I want. Either way, I still have to find a job if I want to survive in this city. So once I turn 21 on Saturday, I'm going to hit the bars and try to find a serving job. I'm hoping with a bar job I won't have to work as much, but I'll still make as much, if not more than I was making at the ice cream place.
I miss my friends more than anything. It really is hard growing up and moving away. Distance makes things difficult. I can't just call up Ashley to hang out, and I really miss doing that. I want to be able to see them as much as possible, but I guess this is what happens when we get older. Although I can't see them/talk to them everyday, I'm not afraid of losing our friendship, I know I'll still have that amazing connection with each and everyone of them whenever I see them (which will hopefully be within the next few months, if not I really might die).
I am already imagining myself around this time next year. I'm hoping to be working in a salon, living on my own, and just enjoying every aspect of this city. I love, love, love riding my bike around the city everyday. Seriously, if one day goes by when I'm not riding my bike, I feel slightly lost (and sluggish). Riding has honestly gotten me in shape. I mean how do you think I went down a pant size, but ate ice cream everyday? It's awesome though, I encourage everyone to get a bike and start riding around their town.
The only thing weighing on me right now (other than being poor), is living in this apt. I'd really love to move out as soon as possible. I understand I signed a lease, but can't people get out of those? I really do love Josh, I just don't think it's healthy for us to be living together. Everyone saw this coming, am I right? Ha, either way. I want to be happy, and I know I'm not while living in this place. I need out!
