Spring is here..
Damn time flies, march is damn near over and I think its safe to start anticipating my birthday. This week has started out so shitty, I'm already looking forward to Friday. Up until now I've been good trying to maintain two jobs and school but since I got high as shit Saturday, my attitude has been so "fuck it!" I'm sure my family wouldn't be happy how I've been handling one of my jobs. I was extra late two days in a row, I called in yesterday and I was scheduled today but was running late and my bus was leaving when I got to the station and wouldn't let me on. Talk about tight, fucking asshole I was so pissed. What was so hard about opening the damn door and letting me on?! nothing! So I basically was a no call, no show. I'm tired of calling in everyday about being late and I just put my two weeks in Monday so I was just like fuck it and brought my ass back to campus. I turned my phone off and did what I do best, sleep the stress away. I also have PMS like shit, so my tolerance was already low. I've never been extremely late or called in to any job, so it really bothered me to leave this job like this, even though I didn't care for it. I can't blame anyone but myself, shit happens.

I'm not focused on school like I should be, had a group presentation today for one of my classes and we did horrible. Mainly because it was all last minute! I hate group projects!
Things just aren't going how I hoped they would be going by now.
On a good note, I can officially start looking for a car. I thought about getting a note, but I'm not ready for that yet. Things are starting off good with the new job at Nordstrom too. I feel like its just the beginning and a good start for me career wise, the discount doesn't hurt either!

Rain Rain, Go Away

It's been raining all day, if it's one thing I dislike about Atlanta that would be it.
This week went by fast, and I can finally breath a sigh a relief. Up until today, It's been non-stop
homework & studying. It also didn't help that, after a weekend of partying 
I woke up Monday feeling like shit.
I rarely get sick, and when I do it kicks my ass.
I hope I'm better before Vday, even though I don't have one yet.
I have a feeling its going to turn out in my favor and be one to remember.

Fine Timing

Even though it's technically 9/12, I thought I'd briefly take a minute to acknowledge the tragedy of 9/11. I'm sure everyone will always remember what they were doing and where they were when it all happened. It's crazy that's it's been 8yrs, I was in the 6th grade, at school in health class. I think an announcement was made, and then they turned on the tv and there it was. I won't dwell on it too much, but my prayers go out to all the lives and families forever changed.

Lately I've been thinking about my future and life in general, It's nothing new but lately it's been consuming my mind. Yesterday I finally got in touch with my financial aid adviser and was already pissed because I've been trying to reach him for about two weeks now, maybe longer. Then to make things worst, I find out that I could have got a scholarship to take care of the rest of my balance.
If I hopped on the next thing smoking I probably would still be able to attend, however I've already dropped my classes and have a job to attend to. So I just deferred everything until January for the spring semester.

What else, this lady came to my register today and had the coolest fucking accent ever. She was from Australia, she thought everything was mad cheap and that snuggies were amazingly ridiculous. It just added more confirmation as to why I love and want to travel. There's so much more to experience in life than what we settle for.

& lastly saving $$$ is a challenge, I just want to shop my life away but responsibilities and priorities come first right?

I'm done Stressing; for now

Things are getting better! Surprisingly I'm not as stressed as I would normally be. Yes when everything first started to go wrong, I was a reck. However I've realized that the more I stress the longer it will take for things to start going my way. A lot of things are still up in the air, but I can only take it one day at a time, and hopefully what ever happens will be something positive.

As far as school; I just did the Parent Plus Loan and got denied which makes me eligible for the full subsidize/unsubsidized loan amount. I'm still unsure of that amount, I keep reading between $4,000-and $10,500.
Either way whatever it is, it should bring my balance to $0, and that's really all that matters.
Or hopefully a negative balance because lord knows I could use a refund!
Enrollment deadline is the first week of August, so no time for bullshit. Depending on the amount, I'll probably have to stay with my Uncle until I get a job to pay my own rent, hopefully no later than November.
It's a lot more to it, but that's pretty much the basics.

The lady from the job, FINALLY called me. I got the job, however she's going on vacation next week and she won't be able to call me to complete the hiring process until the first week of August. Which then leaves me about two weeks, for background checks, paperwork and training. Which leaves me NO time to work, because if all goes well I plan to be on the first thing smoking to atl on the 21st. As desperate as I am for money and other things that I need and want I thought of taking a semester off and staying home to work and save and return to atlanta come January. Crazy? She's still going to call me when she returns and I'll give her my final decision..so we'll see.

uumm what else, I scheduled a appointment for my road test.
Might have to reschedule because I can't find my permit. For some reason I think I threw it away; FML! I meant to throw away my temp i.d which looks the same as the paper permit.
I'm supposed to pay a deposit by tomorrow to hold my spot, but I can't get another permit until Monday so yeah thats another we'll see.

This is looong, and my eyes are getting heavy. It's Friday and I'll probably be sleep by 1am, some summer ehh.
