Past the point of no return.

So, I am starting my new job on Tuesday. I am fairly excited but I am also a little apprehensive. I don't really know what I am doing, so I can't be that excited about it. I think that it will work out well, but even if it doesn't, I can find a job elsewhere. This year was really nice in that I got lots of job offers. It makes me really optimistic about the future and my ability to make money. Making money and working full time makes me feel like an adult. I think I am too young to be grown up :)

So, I need to go clean my room with my sister and help my family pack, Yippee!

Come on and leave me breathless

I decided to check on my blog and guess what i found? COMMENTS!!!! Comments make me really happy. Since i had comments, i decided to write a new post.

First, I am starting to really like using my Dad's Macbook Air. I never really liked macs that much, but the macbook air is totally different. I think it is the trackpad that makes me the happiest. Anyway, read about it on the web :)

Secondly, I have done basically everything I need to do for my new job. I took my drug test yesterday since I am such a druggy :) So, I should start working there once my background check is done. I hope it will be soon.

I made paper today. Out of cotton. Which means that my paper has more of a kinship with dollar bills than it does with actual paper. It has glitter in it though. I helped out at the exploration day at the Elementary school making paper. It was messy, but fun and as a prized at the end I got to make my own paper. I also taught the moms that were working with me that dollar bills are made mostly out of cotton. Which is why money doesn't grow on trees. ha ha ha. They were all surprised to learn that fact, but it makes sense since money does pretty well in the washing machine.

I need to stop writing this post, it has taken me far too long. I'm off to contract...

I am loving JAM!

So, I am home now. I enjoy being home. Right now at I am watching the office, and I can't believe what is happening!

So, I have been working on having a job for a while now. I have worked and worked and no one had any offers for me so I can't start right now. Now that I am bumming around at home, everyone and their mom has a job offer for me. It is a little frustrating. Anyway, I am glad that I will have a job this summer. So, I am trying to decide what to do.

It is hot here, and i don't like that very much. it was almost 100 today, and that was really sucky.

Peace out from steamy california.

That thing you do!

So, today I finished all my assignments for my independent study classes. That means I have to study, take the two finals, pack, and then chill with my friends before I go home! I am so excited! I am exhausted though. I worked on my assignments from 9-5 today, no breaks. I am totally beat right now.

Although as a reward for myself when I finished, I got to watch "That thing you do." It is totally cheesy, but it is really cute. Unfortunately, the song gets stuck in my head so easily. I will get over it I am sure. I think I am going to get something to eat and then pack a bit before I start to study again. It feels really good to be on the cusp of being done. Yippee!

Even Angels Fall

Today has not gone the way I wanted it to go. I was supposed to wake up early and study then go and take my test, but I woke up at noon and studied the whole day. So, now I sit in my room eating salad, feeling really unprepared to take my tests tomorrow.

I don't know what I should do about it. Since this is my first test, I don't know if I should reread everything or study the lessons or what. GAH!

Well, I really do need to study, so I suppose I should stop writing this and get back to work.

The Price of Life

Last night/today I was thinking about how expensive life is. Last night I was making a wishlist since my birthday is coming up. As I was looking for things I want I discovered the Kindle. Right now, there is nothing I want more in this world than a kindle. Don't worry, that will pass. I think mostly I want to play around with one to see the new technology, and then decide if it is worth $400.

Right now I am having a hard time deciding what I want more for next year; a car or nice cooking utensils. The thing is, it would be really nice to have a car to get around in, but it would also be really nice to have the utensils I need to cook the things I want. Will I cook enough to use the utensils? Do I really need transportation that badly? Maybe I should just ask for a kindle instead...

Seriously though, if they sold texts books through amazon on the kindle, think about how much better the world would be... And if there was a kindle library... *Sigh*

Anyway, speaking of expenses, I am so excited to go home where my expenses go down by A LOT and where I wills start to make money again. Yippee for family :)

Happy May!

Hey Everybody,

It's May! Guess what that means, one month until my birthday, four days until my friend's birthday, 17 days until my sister's and 12 days until I go home. It finally feels like spring/summer. It is weird because my roommate left today. It is finally starting to hit me that I am going home. I have wanted to go home for some time now, but in a few days i will actually be there. That makes me really happy.

What is interesting to me is how quickly time slips through my fingers. In a month, I will be two decades old. How did that happen so quickly? I have enjoyed my life, but how did it happen so quickly. What is funny about time in general is how much time I waste on things that aren't important. If I harnessed the power of every moment and did something productive with it, I could be an intense scholar or a great musician. I don't understand why i have such strong lazy tendencies. All the time I have these great plans to do great things with my life, but I just never reach those goals.

Anyway, enough about my bad habits, I think I should go do something productive.
