1. So basically I’ve screwed myself with this whole SUPA summer assignment. I’ve done all the easy things, like read the book and article and find the quotes, I just haven’t actually done the work. So it seems like I don’t have much to do. Until today I realized that today is pretty much the last day I have to work on it. Because tomorrow I work 11-6, then Saturday I work and then have to run all my last minute errands before heading up to the lake for sat-sun-mon. And then I get back here and it’s Tuesday, and I work open until one, and it’s Nick’s first day of classes at BU, which I guess really has nothing to do with my schedule, but still is notable. I guess I’ll have some time to work on it after work, but I know the day before the school I’m not going to want to do that work, and I really shouldn’t wait that long to do it in the first place. ANYWAYS. So I need to get my butt in gear, is basically the point. FML. 

    Also, school seems so exciting right now. But not only do I know that all these college applications and processes that are going to start soon are going to be a huge pain in my ass, and such a hassle, but I also won’t have Nick there with me. And I know it sounds stupid and pathetic that I don’t want to go to school without my boyfriend, but the thought of walking into OFA without him, really makes me glum. 

    The end.

  2. Life plan

    I’ve had this in order for a long time now, but I don’t think I ever posted it. So if any one was wondering, here’s the plan:

    -Get in to Binghamton University, particularly the Decker School of Nursing

    -Find a great apartment and move in with Nick on August 1st after graduation

    -Go to school while working part time as a waitress to pay the bills.

    -Eventually work at the hospital as a nursing assistant (taking vitals, etc) my last year or two of school.

    -Graduate from BU

    -Take and pass the NCLEX (big test to become a nurse)

    -Become a registered nurse

    -Get engaged somewhere in there

    -Get a job at a hospital and save some money

    -Get married

    -Get a house

    -Have a couple kids

    -Stop working until they’re in school

    -Be a cute housewife

    -Go back and become a nurse practitioner working at a family practice

    *Live happily ever after*

  3. School School School

    I got all of my school supplies last night. Which was very exciting. They include a hello kitty thermos and sparkly folders. Who could not be pumped about that? But along with that comes the realization that I need to do my supa paper, and start my college essay. Then school starts, which means cute new clothes. But oh, wait. Also means asking for letters of recommendation, constant meetings in the guidance office, key club president responsibilities which have somehow found their way into my daily life at work (because the kiwanis president comes in for coffee every day and manages to bring up key club and what I should be doing every time) 

    Everyone says your senior year is the best. You’ll have so much fun. But all I see is stress and work. They say junior year is the hardest? Well sure, the classes are harder. But senior year is when it all counts.

  4. Not sure why my iPhone hates me.

    But apparently everything I’ve been posting from there just hasn’t uploaded. So just some updates: worked a shitload of hours this week, plus played saxophone for a show at Binghamton University. Started freaking out about college. Did all the stupid stuff on common app, the rest I need help from Mr Westcott on. And did I mention I have to write an essay? Oh, and do my summer work for SUPA. And then there’s that issue of not having any time to spend with my friends, one of which is leaving for college next week, I probably won’t see her again for a very long time. Most of my friends I’ve had for years just dont care anymore. But those who do have to be getting sick of me by now. The constant, “wanna hang out?” “can’t, I have work.” I’m sure that’s getting old really quickly. But there’s nothing I can do. Hopefully once school starts everything will get better. But only in that regard, I’ll be with them more often, but then starts crazy college stress, plus work, plus trying to find time to spend with my boyfriend inbetween all of that and his work schedule, and school schedule. UGH.

  6. I hate when people respond to crises like this shooting by saying “I can’t wait to get my concealed weapon license to protect myself.” Negative. Concealed weapons are the reason this happened. Ugh.

  7. I’m so excited for today. I only work until eleven, but I’ve already made pretty nice tips. Then a little stop at the gym, and finally SHOPPING. Not only have i been dying for new clothes, but I get to spend the day out with my best friend and my boyfriend. It makes me so happy that they get along so well. Enough that I can leave them at a table and they carry on conversation instead of getting awkward. Seriously, could things get any better? :)

  8. Your problem is you judge everything without knowing everything.

  9. I don’t know what happened, and how everything got so screwed up, but you need to think about other peoples feelings, because this is not what friendship is.

  10. I think I’ve been accidentally “liking” pages by scrolling through on my phone and happening to hit the heart while scrolling…

I'm just a girl, in a crazy, giant, messed up world. I'm trying to make some sense of it before it makes sense of me.
