I'm elated today, people. As of, like, 20 minutes ago, your girl is now a part of the workforce, meaning I GOT A JOB NUGGA!
lol I just got hired (as a temp) at the college's bookstore, making $6 an hour. I don't care, though, because it's something to occupy my mind and I need that bad. I start tomorrow at 2 so wish me luck.
In other news, I love oatmeal cream pies. They're so tasty. Anyhoo, I have an hour until Psychology class so I figured I'd waste it on here lol I have no idea when my mom is picking me up today but oh well. I'm glad I didn't go to that temp agency with her this morning otherwise I would have missed out on a sure thing.
Y'all don't understand; it's been so long since I've had a job, it doesn't make any sense. Now, I gotta be a superstar at everything so they'll hire me permanently. I did mention to her that I'm available all summer so hopefully, she'll consider me for the position. I think they get paid every two weeks, which is cool because I'm in no rush to spend money. Every paycheck for however long I'm there is going towards my "gotta get to Savannah" fund lol I'm serious; my mom doesn't think I can save but I'll show her. I'm not loaning anyone any money either, unless they decide they wanna loan me tuition money.
Well, I think that's it. I didn't talk to Eric because he was "watching a movie" when I called last night. I give up; he's leaving for wherever he's going on or around the 25th but if he doesn't wanna talk, that's cool. I'm not pressuring him. I have a job now, nugga! lol

People, I'm sad today. I left my iPod at home and now, I have nothing to listen to. On top of that, I have to wash clothes after class and no music. This day is gonna suck so bad, it's not even funny.
On the plus side, it is now 27 days until my birthday so I'm happy about that. I still have no plans but that's the usual.
I was gonna call Eric last night but I didn't feel like logging off to dial the number; laziness at its finest, I'm sure. Besides, he was on MySpace and said that he probably wouldn't be awake anyway so whatever. I guess I'll call him tonight if nobody's on the computer.
God, I can't stand the sound of keys clacking on the keyboard; why the hell did I leave it at home?! I'm such a ditz, I swear. Now what am I gonna do with myself?
I guess I'll find something. Kick push, people.

Hey all, how are we today? I'm just dandy, thanks. Yesterday, I shaved my legs for the first time this season and that shit took forever lmao I had to cut myself at least 5 times and that was just one leg. It was worth it because they're so soft and hair-free; it's getting real hot in Houston so this week, my legs and thighs -depending on which skirt I wear lol- will make their debut. I barely wore a skirt last summer but this one, I'm going all out because, for me to be comfortable with my body, I have to be able to wear what's in my closet no matter what. And so begins the experiment...
I was a good girl on Friday because I did three more Math Outcome Tests so now, I only have 4 to do, I think. I'll get those done in the first half of this week so that's going good.
I haven't talked to Eric since last Monday so I don't know what he's up to but oh well. I haven't felt the "urge" to talk to him so that's why I haven't tried. Sue me lol
My mom made me realize that there is a chance that I won't get into Savannah so I'm shopping out my options. Since she's going back to NY, I might go up there and go to school but I have an outstanding balance with University at Buffalo from two years ago so I'm pretty sure that, to get into and receive financial aid from any school up there, I'd have to clear that up first. If we were ready for it, I'd move in with Eric when he got his place but that's not where I'm trying to go right now. I'll just pray on Savannah and see how things work out.
Trey Songz added me as a friend: ahh! lol I was giddy as hell when I saw he added me but I'll remain cool. He's so adorable :sigh:
I've decided to embrace my gender and start kicking it up a bit. How, you ask? I'll tell you: manicures, pedicures, and make-up. I've never done or worn any of those and I'm turning 20 so it's high time I get into the groove of that. Before I go see "The DaVinci Code", I'm getting a manicure and pedicure -hopefully- and the make-up thing, I'll have to work on because I have no funds. I wanna be used to putting it all on and taking it all off by the time it gets to be the fall because I want to be pretty for Eric; plus, it's a good skill to have, applying make-up. I want it to look like I'm not wearing any, though, since I am a tomboy lol Baby steps.
Well, that's about it. I'm sure people are trying to call but hell, my mom hogs the computer all the time so oh well lol Later.

It's been a minute since I blogged but I'm back and I come bearing gifts! Well, not really; just changed the layout, as you can see. I was on a serious Trey Songz binge a couple hours ago so my MySpace and website got blessed. I have to say, this looks rather sexy lol I don't use the word "sexy" at all but that sucker up there is sexy.
Anyways, nothing's really been going on. I don't have class tomorrow since my teacher won't be there so no school is a good look. I'll have to spend the day making MySpace layouts for people but oh well. I talked to Eric two nights ago and he's hilarious as always. Nothing's changed there; what else? I bombed on a "surprise" Psych test last week but hey, thems be the breaks. I'll do better next time when I know it's coming.
I think that's it; I've officially decided to stop sitting on my ass and do something about me wanting to do the music industry thing so wish me luck on that.
My mom's here and she looks like she's ready to go so I gotta go but I'll be back before you know it. I know, corny, but whatever lol
Oh and I'll be adding some new wallpapers, banners, and layouts through the rest of the week so keep watch for them.

Damn, I just heard today that Proof from D12 died yesterday. Where is the news with this shit cause I heard nothing of it. My brother didn't even call me and he's a hardcore D12 fan. That's crazy, though; you never realize how short life really is until somebody just randomly dies or is senselessly killed. Makes me not wanna go out at all. Rest in peace, dude.
On to happier news, I got a 45 out of 50 on my second journal article review in Psychology! I was elated when I saw that grade because I did work hard on it and I thought it was pretty good. That means that my grade should be even higher; I'll figure it out a little later. Also, I finally went and took my first Math Outcome test today lol I swear, if it wasn't required and figured into my final grade, I wouldn't even bother but I have to. I have to double up because I have to do 6 more to catch up to everybody else. It wasn't that hard; I just wasn't thinking about it at the time but it's cool.
Oh, and speaking of Psychology, I didn't go to class yesterday like my mom said and I was pissed the whole day. Do you know that I didn't even have to be there?! They only had to copy my ID and I'm not sure they had to do that. All my shit was already on file so she didn't need me. She knew I was pissed anyway, gonna ask me "What's wrong with you?" Bitch, you made me miss class for nothin'! Okay, "bitch" is a little mean but she knows how I hate to miss class and I've always been like that, even when I was little. School is all I have, as far as I'm concerned so, when somebody tries to take it away from me, I let them have it.
I talked to Eric last night :blush: I swear, he always complains about him having to be celibate until I get to GA but I'm thinkin', if he didn't want to be faithful, he wouldn't be so he'll just have to complain. It's not by choice because, now more than ever, I'd love to come out there and spend some time with him but it's just not possible. Besides, it'd be just my luck that when I decide to come out there, his baby mother'll probably go into labor or somethin' so I'll leave that alone. It was so cute: he's like, "I want you here with me." I was like, aww lol He had just, out of nowhere, said "I miss you." But when I said that I had been calling him all weekend, he got quiet cause he knew he was too busy to speak, if he missed me so much. lol He was like, "I do be thinkin' about you, though" and I said, "I know." lmao He was like "Oh, forget you. Next subject." I was dyin'. We have so much fun on the phone all the time and we had some fun last night but that'll be the end of that.
Yo, my baby (Trey Songz) got arrested this past weekend just because he wouldn't get out the car when the cop told him to. I heard he got handled in a calmer Rodney King kinda way but I don't know how true that is. My poor baby, I'm sure he's okay, though. Damn, he is just too sexy, for real. Love that nigga. I been downloading mad tracks today because I have "soundtracks" to the book and story I'm writing right now and I need to be in that particular zone when I write. I've been getting some of Trey's mixtape songs but the nigga got so many lol
I got a few decent guys on my MySpace page that sing or rap and the music sounds hot so, if anybody wants to listen to them, go through my page and enjoy.
On that note, I'll continue downloading and looking at random guys :)

Hey everybody, it's me. I haven't updated anything just yet but I have been working on some future layouts and they're looking really good. Over the weekend, nothing happened. My cramps came so I was limited to the house --not that I was going anywhere anyway but whatever-- I was trying to talk to Eric all weekend but it seems like he was busy but it's whatever. Nice to know he has a life. Oh and my mom tells me that I'm not going to class tomorrow because I have to go with her to some appointment to sign a paper: is she serious? It's Psychology and I love that class plus, it's sexuality and I've been waiting for this to come up all semester and now, she wants to take it away from me. It's no fair.
Oh, and she asks me if I'm going with her to New York before I go to Savannah this summer because now, she's moving back to Syracuse. I swear, she'll never have a stable plan if she keeps doing this. I said I'd go because if I don't get into Savannah then I'll stay in Syracuse, go to school and revisit with the one friend I actually want to catch up with. The only bad part would be not getting to be closer to Eric but who's to say if we'll even be together then? Only God knows so we'll see.
I've been dying for some new, fresh music to download so my brother suggested Lupe Fiasco and so far, I like what I hear. "Kick, Push" is a hot track and I like his style: he reminds me of Pharrell.
Well, I guess that's it. I don't know what else to do right now but I'm sure I'll come up with something. I have to; my mom doesn't get here for another 5+ hours.

Hello there. First off, updates. I got my tagboard to work so if you wanna leave a tag, it's in the "Site" section. Other than that, I just adjusted a few misspelled words and a couple mistakes here and there, nothing major.
As far as my life goes, nothing's really happened today. I got a 65 on my Math test so that kinda sucks but I've been consistent with everything all semester and that's my lowest grade since I started that class so I'm actually doing really well. I kinda wish I had more homework so I could busy myself since I have no life but I guess I'll live.
DEGRASSI FRIDAYS! Today is the season premiere of one of my all-time favorite shows and I cannot wait. I missed the last few episodes of last season but, thank God for DVRs, I recorded it last night so when I get home, the TV is mine. I should do a Degrassi layout; hmm, there's a thought. Maybe I'll get to work on that. I should wait until some pictures are out for this season because I don't wanna use old pictures but that's definitely a possibility.
I didn't get to talk to Eric last night; I called him, which is very rare because I don't call anybody, but he was on the other line with his cousin and I don't think he called back because I was knocked out soon after. I wasn't gonna talk about anything, really; I just figured I'd call him, talk a couple minutes, then go to bed because I was soooo tired.
My mom was over an hour late picking me up yesterday and I was heated because the one day I decide to go downstairs and wait for her so she doesn't have to walk from the parking lot to the computer lab since we don't have our cell phones, she decides she wants to be late. All that time, I could have had a layout and a few wallpapers done, no problem. She's maddening sometimes, really.
I really need to get some friends because I can't do another summer in the house or spending it with family. I need to be out in the environment, socializing. Now, if only I were a socializing type of person. I just can't get myself to open up. Wait, no, I can open up but it's like nobody wants to open up to me and get to know me. I'm really a nice person once you get to know me. It's like, here in Houston, you have to have gone to school here all your life in order to know a soul and I can't help that I'm from out-of-state.
It's times like these that make me want to go back to Syracuse but then again, I can't give up. It'd really help if I went to a university and lived on campus; that's how I made friends in Buffalo.
:sighs: Well, that's the end of my pity party for now. Let me start collecting stuff for that Degrassi idea. Later.

Well, here's my first blog. I just added a Dave Chappelle wallpaper in the "You" section so if you wanna check that out, you're m ore than welcome to. Today was my Psychology day and, as always, I loved it. That class is so entertaining; I can't get enough. On Tuesday, we're covering sexuality so that should be really entertaining.
Tomorrow is Math and, supposedly, History but I think I'm gonna drop that class because I'm just not into it. If dropping it means that my chances of getting into Savannah State slimmer, oh well. I'll be okay but I'm not sure how Eric's gonna take it. Eric's my boyfriend of seven months who's in the Air Force. I wouldn't call it love because I don't wanna jump the gun but it'll get there if he keeps on the way he does. My only beef with him is his whole baby mama situation. It's really technical so lemme break it down:
I met and started talking to him in June of last year. Now, as we all know, when you're talking to somebody, you're not bound to that person so that was the case with me and him. In August, he had sex with this girl that was kinda like a cut buddy but she wound up getting pregnant. Me being clueless about what had happened, I decide to accept his offer --lol-- of a relationship on September 5th and we carried on as if nothing was wrong. I found out about the whole thing last November and we were on the verge of breaking up because he thought I wouldn't be able to handle it and that I deserved something better. Well, I wasn't gonna give up that easily so we stayed together and here we are, months later and still going strong.
Oh, and he's stationed in Georgia right now so that's how Savannah ties into that. I wish I could go see him now cause he's going overseas for the summer starting next month. I'm scared for him but I don't tell him that so he doesn't start to feel it. It really sucks because he won't be around for my birthday and I was planning on going out there for my birthday before I found out about his deployment.
Anyways, I've been going layout crazy since I got this one to work yesterday lol I'm covered all the way up to the end of June if I post them each in 3-week intervals so that's really good. I'm gonna try to go hosted so I don't have to be over here at Geocities. It's cool and free and everything but I'd rather be hosted.
I gotta come up with some ideas for banners and layouts for you guys. Anyone with suggestions, email me at: f0rever_y0ung81@yahoo.com.
[edit!] I just checked my grades online and I now have an 80 in Psychology; yay! You don't understand; I was failing with a 69 a week ago and now I'm passing with a B. Okay, happy moment over; bye lol
