Extension



This is sort of an extension of my last post. Anyways today I stumbled on this song while on youtube and I've really enjoyed listening to it. I think what I did with just packing up and leaving Arizona was best to start over fresh in a place where I could escape the drama that happened to me growing up. Sometimes simple songs like this are the best.

Why life is so much better after High School



Around the end of my Junior Year of High School this basically became my theme song. Now three High Schools later and after one year of College I'm thinking about this and while its true that the drama you see in High School never ends, life after High School gets way better. For example in college you are not usually sitting on your butt for 8 hours a day waiting for a bell for your next class to start. You quite often will have breaks between your classes or you may have 2 classes on one day and three on another. Quite often you will have less homework except requests by your Instructors to read over the material you talked about in class or read ahead for something you will be doing the next class. You generally have more time on your hands so you find things to do such as hang out with friends, find a job or whatnot. During High School a shell or a cocoon formed around me as that was the way I subconsciously chose to deal with all the stuff that goes on in High School so I basically shut myself up in myself and now I feel that that shell or cocoon is cracking and I am emerging. Bring on life!

High School

Well anyone here feel like a rant about High School? I was listening to High School Never Ends by Bowling for Soup and I agree with their song and a idea for a rant about High School came into my mind.

I got a new job...

Well I applied at a small restaurant about a 5 minutes drive from where I live so I can ride a bike there and I just got a call today saying I got the job so I'll be putting in my two weeks notice at my current workplace when I go into work today and in about two weeks I'll be starting at a new job.

Yay!

Well things are finally starting to look up! Today I got a job as a telephoner for a data research company. Translation: I'll be calling people asking them to do surveys over the phone for market research. I know its not the most ideal job but its a job and I'm not selling anything. So yesterday I went in for an interview passed that, went in to a presentation for the company today and passed the short and easy test on the presentation afterwards and tomorrow I get some training which I think I get paid for since I have to take in my direct deposit slip tomorrow filled out. Once I actually start work I'll be on a probationary period for the first two weeks of the job and after that if I do well which I think I will. This has just shot my confidence level through the roof that I was able to get a job in this economy. And also my Prince of Persia soundtrack which I ordered last week came today so I've been listening to that and its great. Of course I'm addicted to the movie and I'll be buying it once it comes out. Yay! Things are looking up!

My weightloss blog

Kelly I've been so busy since I got out of school for the summer that I have not had enough time to update my weight loss blog. Anyways I'm thinking about closing it because I'm a bit behind on it and I do not have the time right now to keep it up.

My life...

My life at the moment consists of doing all sorts of odd jobs around my Aunts house from mowing the lawn about once a week to moving her food storage downstairs to a closet she has for her food storage in the basement. On Saturday I was able to mow the front lawn but I had other things to do as well so I need to mow the backyard today. So my to do list for today is...
1. Finish mowing the yard and do the edging.
2. Clean out the garage.
3. Clean my bathroom (I need to clean it at least once a week anyways)
4. Clean my room and finish putting my stuff away.
5. Vacuum the house.
6. Reorganize the food storage closet downstairs so we can find what we need in there.

So while its not exactly a long list of things to do, some of these things are time consuming. Well I need to go get started. Backyard here I come!
