I'll Miss you Toyota Celica!

So, Wednesday at work was SO MUCH fun. There are a few regulars at the coffee shop that are just awesome. Sid (short for sidipto, but I can't spell that obviously) and Molly came in, and we were joking with them, Tyson came in, Travis and Aaron came in (if you don't work at the coffee shop, you have no clue who all these people are, but thats okay). So, we were all joking around and hanging out, and I had spilled water on the floor. Megen walked by and slipped and went flying. I felt SO BAD. She was fine, but she did it in front of EVERYONE! We had alot of fun. Also, woody, a DA friend of mine, finally stopped in after promising to stop in for a couple weeks. I felt so special. I had alot of fun. After that, Nava took me to her house so I could take a shower. Its really the little things that count. You can't imagine how nice it is to be able to take a shower without flip flops... just that little thing totally made my night. I don't think I mentioned this before but I gave in and bought a vibrating razor. Its actually pretty cool. We went to meet kayla at the airport and she CUT HER HAIR. It was so cute. Its to her chin, kinda chic and hip. So, I went home and went to bed. Thursday, my first day working at 10, was the same as most other days. Alot of Office Drama. Its beginning to get to be too much for me. I talked to my friends at the coffee shop during closing on Wednesday night, and realized that I like the Coffee shop environment. Its pretty positive and professional. I make more at the coffee shop, and I can work more than 20 hours a week if I want. I also like the way I get paid in tips because I can spend my tips on whatever, and then my paychecks are used for bills, etc. After talking to everyone about it, I decided I might quit IAB when school starts and just work for CCH. I have alot of fun there too. I used to have alot of fun at my IAB job, but recently it hasn't been the same. So, Thursday night I WATCHED TV! Thats insane cause I never watch TV. Aleena and I went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It turns out that I've never gone to a movie with aleena before. Isn't that weird? I have been best friends with aleena since 10th grade (is that like 4 years ago?) I even lived with her for like 2 weeks, but we never went to a movie together. It was alot of fun. :D It was an okay movie. SO, plans for this weekend. Rachel wants to go to Chena Lakes and Bar-B-Q. We are thining of doing that tonight. Saturday I have to work until 8:30 (in the drivethrough :D :D). Eric is SUPPOSED to come into town saturday night, but you never know if that will work out. I kinda hope it does. :D Sunday I don't have to work until 4. Anyways, it should be an event filled weekend. My computer is at "Geek City" still. :( I miss it so much. It was funny because when I came back to my room after taking it, and ron was in there, I was like "OMG You didn't even notice someone stole my computer" and she started to freak out, I told her that I had taken it. It was pretty funny though. When I get it back though, I will have ALL MY MUSIC! YAY! I'm so excited about that. Umm... oh, and that guy hasn't called back about the place yet, but if by Monday he hasn't called, i'm going to call and ask if he can let us know either way. Monday is 8/1. I'm so excited because the Ghalami's are coming back around then. I can't wait until then. Once they come back, its only a month until school starts, and about then I can get a car. :D EEK! Oh, sad thing that I just found out. My DREAM CAR (I know its not to exotic) is a Toyota Celica. Someday I wanted to buy a BRAND NEW one from the dealer. They stopped making them though. :( Oh well, i'll have to find another one, like a Honda Civic. I want either a Honda or a Toyota, unless someone can convince me that there is another make of car that lasts forever like Honda or Toyota. Any Suggestions?

Office Drama

Well, without going into details, this has been my life the past couple days. Monday night I didn't really have anything to do. I think I did something though. Its so sad how quickly I forget. LOL! Oh yeah, Rachel took me to drop my computers off at Geek City so I could get them fixed. Then I went to her house and we looked at pictures of us when we were in middle school. It was crazy. The flashbacks! We also went out to eat at subway, and went to bently mall and went shopping. I went to bed REALLY early, like 11 or so. That was weird. I was tired all day tuesday too, which is even weirder. My body doesn't like getting sleep apparently. Tuesday was whatever but Rachel and I did go running (YAY FOR US!). Afterwards, Aleena picked me up at 7:45, we went to look at this place. I really like it. Its a downstairs, like daylight basement, alot like what she has now. I like it alot. The rooms are decenet sized. The living room is decent sized. It has a fireplace. Have I mentioned I like it alot. Its also pretty cheap. Its got 1700 sq feet and its only 1350. I really hope we get it. :D Its off airport over by Aleena's Mom's house, so thats a plus, cause we could have dinner down the street whenever we want. :D Afterwards I went to work for someone. She tried to get back before closing, but didn't, so I closed. I close again tonight, but Nava's Daughter comes in tonight, so I'm going to go to the airport to see her. :D I am actually about to start work, I'm just stalling. Today during the day was the office drama. Its times like these that I miss the positive work environment at the Newsminer. I like my job, don't get me wrong, just the office drama is thick here. Oh, and I found out the otehr day I don't have to go to class anymore because I can be just graded on my exams, which I'm going to ace (I already aced the first one). Thats exciting. So now I can work all day. This mornign I was 2 hours late though, so my boss said if I was late agan she'd have to fire me, so now I'm coming in at 10 every day, and losing 5 hours a week, but thats okay cause i don't ahve to go to class, so i'm gaining 10 hours a week. Oh well, I should stop stalling. Hope tonights fun. The coffee shop is usually fun. :D

I love Clothes

So, last week nothing much really happened. Just watched a movie, worked, etc. Friday night I didn't really do anything, except go to dinner with my dad. Its nice to spend time with him every once in a while. :D I think it would be nice to have a regular dinner that I go to, except I'm the one whose usually busy. :P Friday after that I didn't do much of anything, which sucks. Aleena went camping, and I didn't have a way to get back for work the next morning, so I didn't go. Work was awesome. I was working in the drivethrough, and had to open it, which was some responsibility, which made me feel very important. :D I LOVE working in the drivethrough. Its very fast paced, but you usually work alone, and tips are pretty good. Theres no one around, so I can sing to the music, or listen to what I want, etc. I can even sit down if theres no one there. I tend to make a bigger mess though, because you have to be so fast. It was a slow day and I made $22 in 6 hours, which is pretty good. The girl who works for Just Gumbo said that she's seen alot of people in the drivethrough and that I'm really good. :D I also had a GREAT day because Eric called, but I was REALLY busy, so I was like, talk fast. He said he couldn't go that night because he had to work. I was okay with that. When I got a minute, I text messaged him telling him it was too bad he couldn't come, that I was sorry I could talk earlier but I was at work with customers waiting, and that hopefully I would see him another time. I knew he wouldn't text message me back, because he has told me a couple times about how he doesn't text message cause its a waste of 10 cents, etc. So wasn't I surprised when I got a text from him. You should have seen the smile on my face. :P He said that he might be able to get stuff done early enough on sunday to come up and see me. I felt so incredibly special that he texted me. :D I texted him back and told him just that. He answered again and said that he was making overtime and is making a dollar in the time it takes him to write one message, but that he was cramping his thumbs. I told him not to hurt himself, but just that I felt really special. I had forgotten I had to work sunday night though. After work, i went home, and did some stuff, and decided to take a nap until aleena got into town to get me for camping. I took out my contacts, put on pajamas (cause i didn't want to get in my bed with my dirty work clothes) and as soon as my head hit the pillow, my phone rang. It was aleena asking me to be ready in like 15 minutes. No nap for me. LOL! I got ready and she didn't have time to go anywhere, so my NEW AE clothes just sat there at my dads house. :( I really wanted to go get them. Harding lake was fun at first, but there was alot of drama, like highschool drama, and it was too much for me. I ended up leaving at about 11 or so. Rachel took me back home and I had to work for a couple hours sunday anyways. We watched part of troy before I fell asleep. Sunday, i got up in time to go to work. Worked for only 2 hours (I had called eric the night before and he wasn't able to make it up, but said he plans to this weekend) and then aleena took me to her house, we cleaned up a bit, then we went and got my clothes, returned movies, went shopping, and then she came back to my room to look at some clothes I was getting rid of. All in all, I got 2 skirts, 1 pair of shorts, 2 pairs of pants, 1 shirt, 1 used pair of pants and 1 used shirt (from aleena). I love getting new clothes, but I'm trying to pace myself and only wear ONE new thing a day, so i dont just run through all my new stuff excitedly. LOL! Hopefully this weekend Eric will come up, but honestly, it might not happen. So, this has been long enough I think, and I didn't even explain the drama of camping. LOL! That part isn't important.

Quick Response

To respond to my sister-in-law's comment on my blog about enabling. I understand where you are coming from, because I understand why people don't like smoking, but I don't really have a problem with it. If I did, then I would not buy her ciggarettes, but its honestly something that doesn't bother me. I know that people die from smoking ciggarettes. People also die by getting hit by a car, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to think driving is bad. Lots of things can kill you in this world. I'm sorry to disappoint everyone who thinks smoking is bad, and it is, but its just something that doesn't bother me. Sorry. :(

This guy I like

I guess i should get a little bit more detailed about this guy I like. I kinda rushed through talkinga about him. I think this is my way of trying to not like him so much. I know that most of the time, guys just want to mess around, and so to prevent getting hurt, I just don't get emotionally attached until I'm in a relationship with thme. If I'm in a relationship, I don't mind getting hurt. Its more of something that I am willing to accept as part of a relationship. Anyways, so this guy is my roommates friend. He came over once a when I first met her, and I didn't really get to talk to him, and didn't really think he was cute. He came over on saturday, as I was getting ready for my hockey players party, and I flirted with him alot, cause I noticed he's really hot! So, we hung out and flirted alot, and then I went to my party, and then when I got back, he was leaving, so I said goodbye. I like him for more than just that he's hot. He's actually funny and really smart. Actually, he's so smart that he's really cocky about it. He is kinda always talking about how smart he is. Luckily I can handle that. Anyways, he's really responsible. Like he's making TONS of money, but doesn't spend much of it because he's saving to buy a house someday. I coulod never do something like that. He's a Jack Mormon (which means he was raised mormon, and still technically is, like hasn't been excommunicated, but he's not active). I can't really say that he's really sweet, but thats good cause I can't have a sweet guy. Anyways, so we went last night to his 21st birthday (as I wrote in the other entry) and it was pretty fun, and we flirted a bit more, but there were all these people I didn't know there, and it was his 21st birthday, so it wasn't as much as before. He works in delta junction so he lives there during the summer. When school starts he will live back up here. He's coming up this weekend for his 21st birthday weekend, but then he told my roommate that he's not coming back until school starts. THat would suck. HOpefully I'll get to see him this weekend then. So, thats my update. I am trying not to like him so much, in case he doesn't like me, but Im not doing a good job.

Ello Love!

That is my new favorite saying. I'm not even sure where I got it, but I just say it quite a bit now. Whenever I answer my phone, or whenever I call someone. I think I might change my message machine to say that too. :D Anyways, so my sister-in-law keeps updating her blog with updates (for those of you who want to know about how she is doing, click her link on the right that say's Erynn's Blog). I'm worried about her, but thats what you do when you love someone. I won't dwell on it though, because she doesn't want us to worry (although we can't help it) and my brother is right about one thing, we don't know what it is yet. So I took a sick day from work today (at least my IAB job) because my throat hurt so incredibly much this morning. It still does, but I can't not go into the Coffee House (CCH) because you can't just no go in there, someone has to cover you, and I hate calling people to replace me with no notice, although I have someone who owes me one. Anyways, so monday night I was supposed to go to the movies with rachel, but I didn't have time to after work because i had to go tanning first with Aleena, and the movie had already started, so I rented a couple movies and we watched one of them (Boy's and Girls, Great movie if you've never seen it). Then after stopping by the store I came home and went to bed at a decent hour. Craziness. LOL! So, yesterday work was really boring, and class was really boring. I talked to the teacher though and he might "be okay" with me just showing up for quizes and exams, since i already took the class and its just boring me to death. I was supposed to go today, but I am sick. After I got off work, I went home, got ready, grabbed my roommate, and me and her drove to Delta Junction for her friend's 21st B-day (this is that guy I like). We made it to delta in about an hour (thats 100 miles I think). It was not what I expected. The way he talked about it was like he woudn't do ANYTHING if we didn't come up for his birthday. Well, he had alot of friends there that we got to meet, some hot ones too. We had fun, we chilled at his place for a bit, went to the steak house, then came back to his place. It was all in all okay, and fun, but more like small town fun. On the drive back, like 15 minutes after we left, my friend called and told us that we didn't have to get the car back, and to just stay as long as we want. Only problem is, we didn't have service until about 15 minutes from town. We were like, dangit! We wanted to stay. LOL! Its okay though. So, this mornign I woke up with a sore throat, so I didn't go to work or class. I drove ron to work though, and bought felicia cigarettes. For all those of you who get mad about that, she is 18, she can legally smoke them, just not buy them, which I think is dumb. So i'm not helping her break the law. She is still allowed to smoke. I have to go return aleena's car now.

Grrrr again!

Okay, apparently talking to him didn't help. So, I messaged my brother about not telling me my sister-in-law was in the hospital all weekend. He answered me later, and I messaged him when I got back asking if he had gotten my message. He said he thought so, and i was like, the one that said I was mad at you. He's like yeah. So I said, I'm still mad. He's like, okay. Thats it, so I told him that it was a big deal and he didn't even tell me or my parents and we are fmaily and such, and he said "its not a big deal, we'll let yhou know when it is a big deal, right now its an unknown." The way I took that is that I wouldn't find out anything was even wrong until she's dead. Is that serious enough for me to hear about it yet? I understand that he's just like that, and doesn't think its important to tell people stuff, but this isn't something "small" like he's moving, or he got a job, this is something big. It hurts SO SO much to know that I'm not any more a part of their lives than millions of strangers. Its been hard enough being a part of their lives with them being in california, and the only connection I have to them is through reading erynn's blog, and now this huge thing happens, and I still hear about that the same way. Its not even like he had to call, or something. He could have messaged me or e-mailed me. He only had to tell ONE person in our family and we could have told everyone else. He knows how much I care about erynn, and he doesn't even care. That really really hurts. Too bad he will never know how much it hurts because he never reads my blog, or talks to me for that matter. I guess in the end all of this shouldn't matter, as long as erynn is all right, but that doesn't make it hurt any less.

Short Funny

Okay, well a quick short thing. I'm watching my friends fish, and one of them is "missing". I think it ran away. My friend is going to be so sad about it. Everyone said he got sucked into the filter, but I'm not sure. I don't want to tell her that part. She asked me online if I think someone stole it. Thats kinda funny. Just thought i'd add that cause i forgot about it.

Grrrr.

Blogs are supposed to be a place to vent right? So I guess I'm going to vent. I am INCREDIBLY mad at my brother right now. If you read my sister-in-law Erynn's blog, it talks about how she had to go into the hospital for some serious stuff (she explains it better than I ever could). So, the kicker here is that I didn't know ANY of it until now, when she posted it on her blog. Her family knew, which makes sense because they are her family, but considering that she is married to my brother, I am also family, and my brother knows how much I care about her, and he didn't even bother to tell me. That hurts me so incredibly much. I seriously want to cry just knowing that he wouldn't tell me something important like that. I'm glad that she's okay though. If I find out that my parents knew about it and didn't bother to tell me, I will be even madder. At that point, I will no longer be mad at my brother because I know he'd figure they'd tell me (although he could have still told me himself, I understand that he knows the way our family usually works). I feel a little bad about now I responded on her blog though cause it seemed very mundane and heartless, where everyone elses was so caring and loving. I just told her I loved her and hope she's okay. I think it was hard for me to say anything more than that because of how upset I am. Oh well, i've vented. thanks blog, for being there for me. :D

Apartment hunting is a bitch!

So, me and my future roommates looked at one place on thursday (I think we had another appointment, but they cancelled). We got there, and the people came up and said it was already rented (didn't really bother to call us either). Then we looked at the outside of another place, which looked really rundown and trailerish. So, then they dropped me off and I went with Nava to see Batman Begins. It was REALLY good. I really enjoyed it. I'm so glad we went to see it. After the move got out at like 1 or something, we drove around looking for apartments for rent. No luck, but fun anyway. Friday after work rachel and I went to the store, but she had her bf's brothers bday party to go to, so i hung out in my room. Aren came and hung out with us for a bit, and Ron, Me and him decided to go watch Wedding Crashers. There wasn't room to sit down, but the fandango machine let us buy tickets, so we sat on the stairs. It was funny, but REALLY predictable. Then we got Aleena to take us home (cause we had to take a taxi there). I went to bed at like 1 and got up for work at like 7 or so. I went to the CCH for work, which I enjoyed, as always. I was really looking forward to working with Mattie, but she didn't work cause someone was working for her. She did stop in though. After work, one of the girls I work with was asking my why my tip cup said canada on it. I told her about this conversation at work that we had about what accents were hot and that I thought canadian accents were hot, but no one else did, they thought it was funny. I casually mentioned that a guy I liked was canadian too. She asked me who he was, and I didn't want to tell her, esp since she said she knew all the hockey players. I finally told her and she was talking about how great he is. She said she parties with them because her boyfriend knows them. She mentioned taht she was going to party there that night, and that I should come. I told her I didn't think they'd want me to come, but she insisted. I told her to call me when she got off work. I had to dress up as a country girl for it, so I went and got some of Aleena's clothes, bought a cowboy hat, and came home to put my hair in pigtails. (Luckily I had Aleena's car because she bought her truck. :D) So, my roommates friend Eric was hanging out there and we were flirting and stuff (he's actually pretty hot). We went to denny's and it was great because I had all these hot guys staring at me, which is unusual. It was great. :D (I know, shallow though). Then we went to this hippie concert called Angry Young and Poor. Keep in mind i'm still in my country girl getup. I got SO MANY "what the hell?" looks. I ended up taking off my cowboy hat so I would at least blend in a bit more. It was kinda boring, but i got to see some people, and watch this girl who comes into my work sing (well, more like yell really). I ended up leaving at like midnight and had to make it back home, pick up ribbons to put in my hair and then meet christina at the coffee house. I was late to the coffee house, but we went to this hockey players party and it was definatly interesting. I basically sat there and watched them and laughed because they really aren't too bright. One guy was really drunk and causing problems, and they kept trying to calm him down all ngith. he was being pretty beligerent, like kicking peoples trucks and throwing eggs at the guys whose house the party was at. He even almost got into a fight with one of the other guys. When I showed up, I seriously do'nt think they wanted me there. I even heard one guy tell the guy I like that i was there to see him, which really wasn't true, I was there cause christina told me to come. I got to meet two of the new hockey players, and they seem pretty cool. Anyways, it was a fun experience, but i don't think i'd go back unless one of the hockey players invited me, or something like that. I went home at 4:30 and Eric was just leaving, so I told him some of my stories, flirted a bit more, then Ron and I went upstairs and went to bed (after a short nightly recap. LOL!) Ron and I want to go to delta junction, (where Eric works/lives) on tuesday because its his 21st birthday, and otherwise he won't do ANYTHING for it and that would be sad. So, Sunday I had to get up at 11:30 to go look at apartments. The first one was kinda ugly from the outside (mor funny looking), but inside it was huge and really nice. One bedroom was twice the size of the double dorm room I share with my roommate. The other two were about half the size of my current room. Then, we went to look at this other one, and it was funny because the girls didn't want to go in and look at it because it was all trailer and ugly on the outside. Once we got inside, though, it was REALLYREALLY nice They had renovated the wholeplace, so it looked like a HOUSE, like rich house. Its gorgeous. Both of them you have to fill out an application, and are really expensive, so I don't think we will be able to do it, so apartment hunting has been a bitch. I worked at 4 with Nava, which was fun. Theres this guy who comes into the coffee shop sometimes, who I KINDA like, but last night when he came in, some of the thigns he was saying, I was like, SHOCKED, and thinking, umm, NO, but at the same time, I still kinda liked him. I'm not sure I guess. He likes me though, and I'm pretty sure I'd end up hurting him cause I wouldn't want/expect something serious or long term with him. (While I'm discussing boys, I might as well mention my roommates friend, the one we went to denny's with, I kinda like him too, actually more than the guy from work). I don't know if he likes me though. Anyways, after work, i called the guy who comes into the coffee shop and me and him and my friend watched Team America. That movie is so funny! So, now its monday morning and since I didn't get any more that 6 hours the ENTIRE weekend or last week, etc, I'm exausted. I only got 2-3 hours last night. I might go take a nap as soon as Rachel gets here. And I think thats acctually everything.

Thanks for Getting me Addicted

I want to thank everyone who helped me get addicted to this blogger. Now, I am constantly checking EVERYONE I KNOW who has a blog too see if they've updated, and most of them have not (actually none of them have). I check at least once a day. So, now I'm addicted to it and everyone else is probably tired of it by now. Oh well, I'm over it. Okay, so Tuesday night was really fun. Aleena and I went tanning (which I love, tanning is always fun) and then we went to dinner with her sister and her sister's fiance. I ate a Salad AGAIN! This time I tried to eat more. It was really good, and I decided that when I move out of the dorms, I am going to buy salad (like just green lettuce or whatever) and ranch, and eat that instead of chips and dip. Isn't that genius? It would be so much healthier for me. :D So, after dinner we went to go rent the movie and run by the store. THEY DIDN"T HAVE IT... grrr.. I really felt like watching it. I will find it eventually i guess. I think nava owns it. Maybe i'll just borrow it. So, we talked more about moving in with each other and i'm getting so excited about it. Wednesday I went to work for 2.5 hours, and then left to go talk to the bank and to call around for places. I had to take the city bus over to the other bank across town, but that gave me time to call all the people. We have 2 appointments to look at houses tonight, and then one sunday. I'm SO excited. I can't wait. I'm not sure what I will do about transportation though. I have no way to get to and from work (either job). My dad won't let me borrow the car, or even buy it from him for that matter, so I am going to ahve to figure that out. i can't really take the bus from the coffee house cause i get off work around midnight. I could MAYBE take the city bus to work, but I might have to cut back some hours to do it, depending on the bus schedule. We will make it work, because we always do. :D As SOON as my student loans come in I'm going to buy a car, and spend the rest of the money on my Credit Cards. I really should actually be packing anytime I'm sitting at home, but I have to give 7 day's notice on my dorm room anyways, so even if I tell them RIGHT when we find out, I have 7 days after that to pack. :D What I might do if I have NO way of getting to and from work, is just stay in the dorm, pay for it, and still pay aleena rent, and then when they kick me out at the end of the summer worry about it then. Another option is to borrow aleena's car if she buys a new one (which she is) until I get my student loans in, but we aren't sure because she may need to sell it right away and use the money for the ranger. Walking isn't an option unless we get the place we are looking at on sunday because that is really close to UAF. Wednesday night I worked all night, but I had a blast. Tips SUCKED, but I had fun because some of the people who came in were cracking me up. I didn't get off until 12:45 though. I ended up hanging out downstairs and talking to Woody (the DA) for about an hour before I went to bed (stupid me). LOL! I also talked to him for 2.5 hours the night before. So, today we are going to go look at two of the places, and i'm so excited I can hardly stand it. :D EEEEEK!

Forgot to Mention

Forgot to mention i'm very excited about tonight because Aleena is going to get me after work, we are going tanning then renting a movie and watching it and Coyote Ugly (unrated). I'm very excited because I love spending time with Aleena. :D Oh, and I am all set to go running after work. I hope Rachel brought her stuff. :D

Is it wrong to feel special when you are there for your friends when they need you?

So, Sunday at work was interesting. I went to work, and my friend Aleena was going to meet up with this guy that I had met. He showed up, but she was late, so he left, but when I told her, she called him and he came back. Of course, since Aleena's so gorgeous, he was impressed. Aleena and Felicia chatted with him a bit, then they all left. I was working with Nava, so that was fun. There was also a pretty good band playing. One of my friends came at the VERY end of my lunch break, so I went outside, and she was crying because she and her boyfriend of almost 3 years had broken up (they had already been having some problems). I just sat outside and held her while she cried, and then told her she could come stay with me (because she was living with him). We talked for a bit and I ended up being late back inside, which I felt bad about, but this was important. Later that night this regular who always comes in came in and was really high, and sadly, I like him better that way. He was alot more friendly and talkative (he's always nice though). So we were talking, and I noticed he had his tongue pierced which I had never noticed before. It was kinda funny. I felt bad though because we had been busy all night, so this was my first chance to pause and breathe, and I totally wasn't helping Nava start to do closing stuff. What can I say, guys distract me. :P Also, after the scheduled guys played, this regular got up and played a bit, and then this guy who was just there and apparently had his guitar. His first song or two were pretty good, but after that, his tone started going pretty quick, and by the last song it was pretty off. Then some really ghetto guy got up and started playing the piano like crazy. It was just surprising, but it was so cool. They were all REALLY loud, and one guy started to dance on stage. It made the night a little fun. I called my friend after closing, and she had decided to stay at home that night. The next morning I was really late for my other job (like 2 hours late) and I felt pretty bad about it. I must have rolled over onto my phone this morning because it didn't go off, but I had set the alarm. I think my boss was pretty mad at me, but I think shes over it today. :D I love my boss. Anyways, there was NOTHING to do, because my boss, my supervisor, two people down the hall who give us work sometimes all weren't there (my boss left almost right after I got there). The HR office even closed an hour early. It was SO SLOW! I don't like it being so slow because I just sit there. After work, I couldn't go jogging because I had to go to my other job almost right away. I had ALOT of fun at my other job. Everyone was cracking me up and being really friendly. :D Only problem with last night is I didn't end up getting out of there until 1, and so Aleena waited for me to give me a ride home (how sweet of her) and we talked about when (and if) we are going to move in together and that was fun (as always). Okay, so after some research (rereading my blog) I realize that I've mentioned the guy that I just can't seem to get over. Well I was doing really good because he has been out of town (home visiting for the summer). I hadn't really been thinking of him much, and when I did, it was just, hey, he's gone, and he'll be back, and he's cute (just casual stuff). So, he's back. I saw him last week walking down the stairs, and I actually said loudly (louder than I meant to) "You have got to be kidding me" I'm not sure why I chose those words, but that was what I said. He was looking RIGHT at me, I was looking RIGHT at him, and he just kept walking, and walked off. I was a little irritated, then realized, maybe he didn't see me (although he probably did and just ignored me). So, that totally messed me up. I was THIS close to getting over him, and now thats definatly not happening. So, I saw him again yesterday afternoon. I was wearing my REALLY short skirt, but I was also wearing my huge nanook hockey sweater because I was chilly. I had just put food in my mouth, and was waiting for the bus when the truck he was in (for work I guess) drove by, and he looked at me and waved and smiled. I was like, damn, I probably look like shit, and then my second thought was, how sweet he waved at me. I think thats why I had a good night, which is sad. I really need to get over him. Any ideas on how? So far, realizing that he is not as nice as I thought hasn't worked, and knowing about some of his more disgusting habits hasn't worked either (they really are really really disgusting).

A little Bit Better I guess.

Okay, so I didn't end up going to my uncles for dinner, which makes me sad because I miss my cousins. Aleena picked me up and we went and picked up another girl and and met Aleena's sister at her house. I had talked to my uncle seeing if I could bring my two friends to dinner, and they said they didn't have enough food for everyone, so we ate at boston's instead. I ATE A SALAD! Aren't you proud of me? I am. For those of you who don't know me that well, I don't EVER eat salads. I hate salads. But I ate one yesterday and actually enjoyed it. :D I'm gonna start eating salads sometimes now. :D Anyways, after dinner we drove around to get people that were going out to Harding Lake with us for a bit. We ended up taking forever to get everyone, and it ended up only being Me, Aleena, the girl we picked up and Cody. We drove out to Harding Lake and met Micheal and Rachel there. It was an AWESOME spot that we were at. We hung out there, and I think it went pretty well. Micheal seemed to have fun, which was important because if he had a bad time, then he may never want to hang out with Rachel's friends again, and that would be hard on Rachel. Then we drove back and dropped of the girl (who was much better tonight than last night) and Cody (who was really annoying last night) and Aleena and I went to the Family Resturaunt (we tried to get into denny's but her mom wouldn't let us) and ordered way to much. LOL! THen we came home. I got to sleep last night for 10 hours. THat was definatly nice, although everyone called me this morning. LOL! Oh well, now I have to go to work this evening. I like working, so this should be fun. Aleenas going to stop by for a while too. :D

I hate Camping

Okay, so I know I don't like camping, but I always forget how much I hate it until we actually go. We went out camping last night, but didn't end up getting out there until closer to midnight or 12:30. We had to buy chips and hotdogs and smores and all this stuff. We were definatly over stocked, like always. Anyways, we went out to Olness Pond and were just hanign out and joking around. There was this one girl there that I really don't like. I don't MIND her normally, but last night she pissed me off. She started getting into my business that she didn't even know anything about, and she was messing with aleena, which made me mad (like she actually almost hurt her), and I also got jealous because she tried to act like she was close with aleena, and like she had the same kind of relationship that Aleena and I have, but she doesn't... she wants to, but she just doesn't. That may sound bitchy to alot of people, but thats just the way it is. She kind of ruined my night a bit. After hanging out for a while, everyone went to go sleep in their cars because no one wanted to pitch a tent. I forget how much I hate camping until I try to sleep. I can't sleep because the bugs, the noises, the cold, the uncomfort, all of that. Everyone slept last night but me. I slept for like less than an hour and it wasn't even good sleep. So, I went back in witha friend who was going to work, and she took me home. :D I'm so glad I got to sleep on my bed. THen my friend Rachel's boyfriend apparently invited me to go with them tonight, which is a REALLY big deal cause he's really antisocial with anyone whose not in his little group of friends (just cause hes shy). He also said that I had lost weight and that I looked skinnier and that him and his friends were talking about it after we stopped by last night. I was so happy. That has totally made my day. :D Anyways, I am going to go to dinner at my uncles tonight because I haven't seen them in a while and I miss them. :D (my cousins. :D) Anybody who is reading this, if you have a blog, please update it, and if you have one that I don't know about, comment and put the address or something so I can read yours. :D

More Detailed Description

Okay, sorry about being rushed the other day. It was 5 and we were getting off work, everyone was leaving, and it was time to go running. Running was pretty good yesterday. We hadn't run in a WHILE, which is bad, but I hate running alone and we hadn't been working, or like it was raining on wednesday. :P Running was nice because it wasn't too hott, but wasn't too cold, and it was perfect. We ran quite a ways too, farther than I had been. :D I think I just get tired running every day and sore, and then when I try to run even the same amount, I can't make it. I'm feeling good today though, so hopefully I will be able to run the same amount. :D I did forget my stuff though, which means we have to go back to the dorms first. Work today kinda sucked. Normally I enjoy a work day where I can stay ALL day and don't have to leave and comeback for class. It just feels like a waste because not only am I missing 2 hours for class (often times a class I dont NEED to go to in order to understand the material) but also another 30 minutes just getting to and from work. I am also interupted at work to leave, and it thorws off my flow. Today though, I took a lunch, even though I normally don't take lunches. :( Anyways, last night rachel did my hair (I'll work on getting a picture for you guys) and its in braids halfway down my head. I like it. I had it done before in belize, but I don't know if I have any pictures of it. :P So, we went to the store last night, and to dinner. Not all that great, but it was okay. :D Oh, and today is good because its PAYDAY! I'm so excited. I love paydays. I rememberd this morning, early, or late last night I think, but I forgot the rest of the day, in the stress of the day, and now that I rememberd, I'm happy. The first thing I did was go through and pay all my bills. I'm fixing my budget now. :D I like fixing my budget, even though it kinda means that I usually overspent, its fun for me. Okay, wow, I'm REALLY REALLY sad! Anyways, I was all excited to go running today but now my dad is picking me up to take me to dinner, so i can't. I have a fun weekend planned, so hopefully I'll update by monday. :D Have a nice weekened. :D

This weekend was SO intense.

Okay, so sorry it took me so long to update. For me, the weekend was until yesterday (wednesday) because I didn't work at my main job until then. So, Friday I worked and got off early (yay) and so Rachel and I went jogging (yay). Okay, so background information. Rachel had drawn a "risque" picture on my door, and we left it up because we thought it was funny. Someone drew an even more risque picture on our door, and put a whole bunch of room nubmers on it. I don't know if they were saying they were the ones who had put the picture on there, or if they were just random, but rachel and I took my little Dry Erase Post-Its (they are like post-it size dry erase boards) and drew risque pictures on them and put them on those room numbers. It was alot of fun, even though it was a little childish. Sometimes, its fun to just do something silly and get it out. :D After that rachel left and I think I just hung out until Aleena called. I can't remember. Aleena and Me and My Roommate and Rachel went to our friends house to have a party. it was actually pretty fun, we mostly just hung out. We went home and saturday morning I had to work *ugh* After work I came home and took a nap, then went with my roommate to the gas station. We met up with some friends (and some new people) and went out to this place at the end of peger. We had SO much fun, and I stayed with Aleena, after 6.5 hours of sleep woke up and felt rested. Went to work for 4 hours, went home, took a shower, got dressed, went out to Olness Pond for a while, some crazy stuff happened, went home... okay, sorry to stop, but I just realized that this story isn't really very good if I leave out as much as I am. I guess you guys will never know the intenseness of the weekend. Sorry. :( LOL! I guess you will just have to believe me that some SERIOUS shit happened, and I had a serious emotional breakdown, then recovered, then had some fun. After that, I hadn't slept all night, I went to work at 7:30, work was so slow that we had about 10 people int he first 4 hours. Tips were REALLY low. After work I went to the store with Nava for less than an hour, went home, ate some burgers cause my friends wanted me to join their bar-b-que, then went upstairs, went to sleep, slept until the next morning. At 7:30 went to work, worked all day, pretty slow again. I don't even remember what happened tuesday night, I think it wasn't much though. Wednesday I worked all day and started my new class (which is interesting) and now its today. :D LOL! Sorry, I'm being rushed. I'll update later.
