Today I wasted seven and a half hours of my life. Yes, at meijer (where else). I trained for credit cards today and did that all day long. It entails walking up to people and saying, "Hi, would you be interested in saving ten percent on your purchases today by applying for a meijer credit card?"

I got 1 yes out of about 150 people.

Do you know how depressing that is?
And even after that one person applied I felt I had destroyed her life because just maybe she would end up going into debt with that meijer credit card. She would be five or six thousand dollars in debt because she has a compulsive personality and she would lose her house, her car, her kids, her husband, and maybe even her cute little dog. I really felt like a used car salesman, that's the best way I can describe it.

Anyway, I'm all done with band camp and working fourty hours a week at the courtesy desk at meijer. About all the time I have is used up working or being with Rueben or going to band, or getting ready for band.

I got the Rotary Life Leadership Scholarship, it's $1,000. That will help a little bit, probably enough for books for a couple of years. Oh well, the cost of everything is going up, I mean, gas at $2.59. I can remember my mom bitching because it was $1.11. I bet it'll be around $3.00 a gallon by Christmas, if not the start of school.

At least it's green outside and it smells like spring from all the rain. Rain makes me happy, well, melancholy at least, that's about the happiest I get. I mean, yeah, I can be bubbly and blonde sometimes, but I am rarely ever happy or in a good mood. Everything just runs a lot smoother when everyone thinks everything is going okay. Then they leave you alone. I've figured out that much.

School is starting soon. It's a year of lasts. I've already had my last band camp, which I am not sad about at all. Soon it will be the last first day of school, last play, last Christmas vacation, last sping break, last prom, and then finally graduation. I cannot wait until that day. It means that I am one step closer to being a principle flutist in a world class orchestra or symphony. Of course I would settle for the Boston Philharmonic ;).

Life still sucks. Things are getting a little better. Something might happen with a cutie from work. Maybe, Maybe not. I'm not too hopeful.

ACT results are in.

I'm a little disappointed.

I got a 27.

My highest score was in science, it was 29/36.

It figures, the subject I hate the most is the one I score best in.

That's how it goes I guess.

I'm working a lot now. I never knew how bad people could be until now. God, what asses. All you can do is nod and smile. I didn't even take the weird guy screaming about the dollar on his gas can personally.

Even my manager looked shook up.

It actually made me happy. Is that odd?

Probably.

I'm back from LLC and Girl's State. Both were fun. I almost died at Girl's State, no air conditioning (anywhere). We were in the middle of Lansing and there were 90 girls crammed into a classroom at a time. With no fans. I think it was around 110 degrees.

I'm at the service desk now. I just checked my schedule, i have to work until ten monday (the fourth). That's dissapointing, but okay because fireworks aren't until 11pm and I still get to eat with my family at 1pm.

Ah, what fun working almost fourty hours a week!

Band camp is in a month.

Every day is a winding road.
I feel bad. Why do I feel bad? Because I left her. Because no matter how stupid she was being I shouldn't have just left her alone to deal with it. I should've given her someone to talk to, been a shoulder to cry on. I should've helped her through it. I shouldn't have just ignored her. I needed to talk to him though. I needed him to know that he was loved, and that I didn't approve of what she did. But I still feel bad. Worse now than before. Ugh. I'm a horrible friend. This sucks.

VENT SESSION: BEWARE
I want to strangle her! She just doesn't get how good she has it!!! How could she do that? How!? She's not like her cousin... she's not like that at all. She doesn't do things like this. UGH! I just don't get it. And now to treat him the way she is! I love him SO much! He is one of my best friends now! I couldn't live my life if he wasn't there. It just wouldn't work. She's so lucky to have him. Ya' know... it's funny, I used to think that he was lucky to have her too. Now I think he deserves better. When she told me this stuff I broke down completely. I didn't know what to do. Now she's going back on it... mostly cuz I freaked out at her, I think. I just don't know what to think.

My head hurts constantly... not a day goes by that I don't take Tylenol at least once. I think I'm too stressed. Maybe my surgery will be a good thing. It's making me chill for a while. At least that part's good.

Anyway, I should go now. Love and hugs all. Muuwwwaaahh. Chao my people.

I'm leaving Wednesday morning for my leadership camp sponsered by the Rotary (the one where i could get a $1,000 scholarship) and then I'm getting back Saturday night only to leave again Sunday morning for Girl's State at MSU. I'll be gone to that one for a week. That one might give me the chance to go to Washington D.C.

I finished my cashier training and when I get back I'm moving up to the service desk. I've been doing almost nothing for a while. I have cd's to make and piccolos to deliver, yet I find myself sitting in my room that should be condemned because of disorder.

I took my ACT saturday morning at GRCC, in an unairconditioned room. It was absolutely horrid. Finally, though after the English portion we got moved to another room that was airconditioned. It felt like heaven. I swear that room got up to over ninety because it was smaller than a normal highschool classroom and had like thirty five people in it, and no fan, in Grand Rapids. Ah, well, so in another four to seven weeks I'll get those results back. I think I did between a twenty five and a thirty, but I wouldn't really know. I got my report card. I'm up to a 3.871. It's a little less than expected, but what do I expect after getting a C in Algebra II last year? I'm still waiting for my elusive AP chem test results.

Tomorrow I have a piano lesson with Jenny. I started playing Jingle Bells with both hands Saturday. It was very exciting, yet excruciating to listen to, I'm sure. I thought perhaps, that it would fool the weather, and it would go from ninety five to fourty or twenty. Eh, I should have wished on a wishing well, too. That would have sealed the deal.

I bought Koala Yummies for my camps. They're scrumptious.

Good night.
