Back to school?   
12:23pm 10/08/2009
  I went up to Valencia last week to find out about going back to school. Overall, they weren't very helpful, but oh well.

I was gonna try to rush to try to get in for the fall semester, but I'm thinking I'll wait till Spring. That way I have time to request my transcripts and fill out my FAFSA and all that. I think I'll major in Biology. I may get more specific (maybe Marine Biology or Zoology) but I'm not sure yet.

Hopefully I wont mess up take 2.

B-day   
12:48pm 20/07/2009
  I didn't really want to do anything for my birthday, so I didn't mention it to many people. Justin threw me a surprise party. It was a little short notice so not many people showed up but it was still pretty cool. I was badgered into drinking (a lot). They didn't leave until about 2:30 am. I had to be up at 5:30am. Fuuuunnn....Needless to say, I'm exhausted.

Anyway, I think I've decided to stop celebrating my birthday. There's no more exciting ones. Now I'm just getting old.

I'm hoping this is the year that I get my shit together. I doubt it, but I hope. I want to go back to school. I wanna figure out what I wanna do with my life. I want a decent job that doesn't make me want to slam my head against the wall. I want to be able to afford to actually pay my bills and eat.

Oh well, I guess we'll see what happens

mood: exhausted
I went to bed at 11 last night. I was really tired but I couldn't sleep for anything. Last time I looked at the clock it had been 2am.

I am so tired right now. I feel like I'm in a daze.

But I bet I'll be fine when I get home and wont wanna take a nap, lol.

I want to...   
11:47am 01/07/2009
  -Go back to school (major in something science, minor in business, I think)

-Get a second job

-Volunteer at the Birds of Prey Centers

-Start jogging

-See friends more


I can't really do these for a few different reason though:

-I don't have enough money for gas (a second job would help with that though)-Doesn't pertain to jogging

-I share a car which makes it tough to work around work schedules-Also doesn't pertain to jogging

-My laziness always conquers all


I fail....

Vampire Madness   
08:11am 22/06/2009
  So, everyone seems to be obsessed with vampires. It kind of came out of nowhere. I suspect that Stephanie Meyers played a big part of this. At least with getting the interest of all the little teeny boppers. Not that she is by any means the first author to cause a vampire following. I'm sure it happened with Anne Rice's series. Maybe it even happened with Bram Stoker. Who knows, maybe even earlier authors like Sheridan Le Fanu (Carmilla) and John William Polidori (The Vampyre) get people into vampire stories. I think Stephanie Meyers just temporarily renewed everyones interest and now the world seems to be in a vamp frenzy.

So many books/movies/tv shows are popping up centered around these 'monsters.'

A few years ago, I used to bitch and moan about there not being enough vampires in entertainment. Now they're everywhere I look. I'm both happy and disappointed about this. Now I have a huge selection of books to choose from. Many are just crap, but there are a few good ones in there. I'm a bit embarrassed by it, but I'm finding myself drawn more to the young adult books. I'm just so tired of reading ones where there are gratuitous sex scenes every 30 pages or so. One thing that sucks about the young adult books though, is I feel like I'm constantly reading the same book just with different character names. The ideas are completely unoriginal. I don't know how many times I've seen a vampire boarding school serve as the setting.

I've always been a fan of the wounded lonely vampire characters who resist their urge to drink human blood. But now I'm starting to want to read something with a more traditional vampire in it. Bring on the blood sucking fiends!

There's a show starting this fall called The Vampire Diaries that I'm both excited and wary about. They based it off of what was originally a trilogy (I think there are more now though) by L.J. Smith that I read back in middle school. This was early into my obsession and probably helped feed into it. I loved the books. So I'm happy that I'll be able to watch it, but afraid they'll fuck it up. I watched Twilight get turned into a less than stellar movie so I worry about this show. Can they pull it off?

I just feel like my interest is being taken over by people who really don't give a damn about vampires so much as the 'hotties' (:hack:) playing them. Vampires are trendy right now. It kinda bums me out. I don't want people thinking I like vamps just because I read Twilight (which I did like the books very much, but it is no way what caused my interest).

Anyway, I could probably keep going on and on about vampires but I'll spare anyone reading this. :P That is if anyone still reads these things...

Halo Wedding   
11:06am 19/01/2009
  So I went to my cousins wedding on Saturday. It was at the Orlando Science Center during a gaming convention. It was Halo Themed. Neat, huh? There was a string quartet playing songs from the game and they were married by Master Chief. There's gonna be an MTV special about it on the 26th. You should all watch it.

Life as of lately   
12:47pm 17/12/2008
  I don't think I've made a real post lately, so I think I'll briefly say what's been going on.

I'm living in Winter Springs right by the Oviedo Mall. I have a house. It's not very big but it's cute and isn't too terribly priced. Especially for the neighborhood we live in. Very nice area.

Back in August I quit my job at Petland due to an asshole manager and crappy hours. I began working at this medical career school in Longwood where I'm the administrative assistant. They pay is kinda nice, but they're screwing me over with hours as well. They on multiple occasions promised me more hours only to put it off. So I'm working a whopping 20 hours a week. Yeah...can't pay my bills on that. So last Saturday I started working at the pet store again as a second job. Hopefully that'll help and I wont be so broke anymore.

My car has died. :'( It had been good to me. I drove it for 6 years. For one year to and from Tampa once a week. But I suck and didn't take care of it and now it's dead. I went about 6 month without checking my oil. When I finally did, it was bone dry. So I filled it up but shortly after my car started acting weird. Then one day I go to leave work and it started and died right away. I guess I seized the engine or something like that. Sucks. Now I have no car. It's never a very fun thing. Me and my boyfriend have been sharing his. I went from driving a teeny Metro to a beast of a Buick Le Sabre. Yikes.

Um....anyway that's all I can think of to write...ta!

Twilight Movie   
02:43pm 18/03/2008
  Cedric Diggory is playing Edward in Twilight movie. I don't know how I feel about that. I think my excitement for the movie has gone down a knotch. I'm just having a hard time picturing him in the role...

And none of you (with the exception of Amanda probably) know what the hell I'm talking about, huh?

  The owner of Bagel King swears she's not mad at me. This week is my last week and she scheduled me one day. Yeah, ok. She's mad.

  Ok, so I'm quitting Bagel King. YAY! I'm going to be free!

I'm a little scared at the same time though. I love working at Petland, but it's not the most stable job ever. I've yet to make commision yet and they fire you if you don't (it's 7.25/hr or 8% commision. whichever is higher). But I've already lasted longer than I should have. Maybe they like me? When I asked them if I could have full time hours, she said that would be fine. Hopefully she wouldn't say that if they were going to just fire me. Oh well. If I get fired, I'll try somewhere else. If worst comes to worst, I'm pretty sure that Bagel King would take me back.

I'm just really looking foward to being able to slow down. Working two jobs kinda sucks. Always having money was nice, but I think my sanity is more important.

Struggling with enough time for two jobs   
12:29pm 11/12/2007
 

As of about a week ago, I am now working two job.  My first job, Bagel King, isn't too happy that I got another job and I think they're trying to make things difficult for me.  First, I had a ton of hours there (5 and 1/2 days) , so I went to Petland, my second job, and told them the times and days I could work.  They had already made a schedule and I couldnt work either day they told me too, so they had to change it.  Then the next day when I went in to Bagel King, they had changed so I only worked 3 days.  One of those days was the one day Petland had me working.  I couln't say anything though because they didn't actually change that day.  Just the manager that was on.  The old one would have let me leave early.  The new one wouldn't.  So Petland had to change my schedule again.  I hope they don't get frustrated with me and I decide I'm not worth it.  I really really like it there.  On Saturday, my first day at Petland, I worked at Bagel King from 8-1.  Then I worked at Petland from 3-9:45.  Even though I worked all day, when I got home, my boyfriend said I seem happy.  These last two days I've been impatiently waiting for when I can go back to Petland.  I actually want to work.  Which I never thought would happen.

At Petland I'm what's called a 'Pet Counselor'  I talk to people about what they're looking for, find out about them (such as living situation) and try to pair them with the right pet.  Really though a big part of what I do is watch people and see if they look at a particular puppy for more than 30 seconds and then go grab it and bring the puppy to them to play with.  I get to hold puppies all day.  How cool is that?  I mean, yeah there's other crappy stuff too.  When a puppy goes to the bathroom in one of the play rooms, I have to clean it up.  I also have to change the other animals food and water and pretty much typical animal care stuff.  Also I have to do the incredibly dull fronting everything in the store, but they're all nessessary evils.  I don't really mind doing those.  I know it has to be done.  And yet I still love being there.

I know that if it comes down to it and Bagel King keeps making things difficult, I'm going to have to put my two weeks notice in (supposing that Petland hasn't had it with me) and just work at Petland.  I don't really want to do that, but if I have to I will.

Quick update   
02:26pm 13/07/2007
 

Just thought I'd make a quick post.

Harry Potter was great.  I saw it twice the first day it came out.  Can't wait for the book.


Also I moved out of my parents house.  I've been out for about 3 weeks now.  Me and my boyfriend have a 2 bedroom/ 2 1/2 bath town house in Maitland.  I like being moved out. :)

Um that's all for now.  You should all call me and hang out with me sometime.

Also, I don't have internet access so I can't check this too often.

Oh and I'm almost 21.  YAY!  Less than a week to go!!

BYE

The Future   
10:40pm 28/05/2007
  I really want to go back to school. I'm terrified of amounting to nothing and working at Dunkin Donuts for the rest of my life.

I still don't know exactly what I want to do, but I remember hearing something about a scholarship that is given out where you have to agree to teach in a specific state/area for a set number of years. Does anybody know anything at all about that? That may not be too bad of an idea, but I really don't know where to find out information about it. :(
