So today was AMAZING!!!!
I slept later than I had planned because I couldn't mow the lawns today.
That is getting pushed to tomorrow.
And then I went and helped Spenser put up his hammock in his back yard.
After it was up, we went inside and chilled with him for a little bit before he had to go babysit his cousins.
When I got home, all I really did was watch T.V. with the younger cousins until we all decided to go BOWLING!!!
Spense met us at the ally and played a game with us, and I kicked his ass at that.
To rub it in worse, I beat him at every arcade game we played.
It makes me wonder if he just LETS me win all the time...
After having all that fun, Spenser and I left and went to his Dad's house because it was only 5 minutes away.
IT WAS WONDERFUL!
I absolutely LOVE his dad and step-mom.
When we left there, we went to Target, where an EPIC SILLY-STRING BATTLE ensued.
The only casualty of our little war was Target's poor door, which paid the price for being a door before the battle even truly began.
After the short 5 minutes we were able to continuously spray each other with glow in the dark sticky goo, we spent another 5 picking it out of my hair.
Then we sat down at a bench while I got some air back into my lungs, along with some tar.
We laughed the way we always do on the way home.
We also seriously discussed the fact that we deffinetly like each other, but that college would soon make us go our separate ways.
At my door, neither of us wanted the night to be over so soon, but we knew we had to part.
Before he left though, Spenser looked at me and asked,
"Do you want to just say to hell with college and just date until whenever?"
And it seemed like the most romantic thing.
OBVIOUSLY I said yes, and we shared a few quick kisses before he drove away as I walked into my house.
As soon as I laid my fingers on my computer, I made it "Facebook Official" and we are still texting now.
You could deffinetly say I am a very happy young lady. :)
So today was a good day.
I sat around the house mostly, and that was fine.
At about 5:30 Spenser came over, and we just chilled at my house for a couple hours.
I totally KICKED HIS ASS at Wii Super Mario Smash Bros!!!!
I rubbed it in pretty good too.
We also talked about music a little bit, and I let him play Shammi, my guitar.
After a while I started to go nuts, so we left, and just drove around doing nothing.
We went to one new neighborhood that backs up to some train tracks, and sat on top of the old train that was there, talking as the sun set.
After sitting there for a while we drove around some more, and eventually headed to BoJangle's so I could give Sky a cigarette through the drive-thru.
When we left there we drove around aimlessly, until we decided to go on a Harris Teeter adventure.
Pulling into the parking lot we saw a couple of friends who I hadn't seen in a VERY long time.
We stopped and talked to them for a couple of minutes and exchanged numbers before Spense and I made our way inside.
Once we were in, I stopped by the potty because I REALLY had to pee.
Then we walked around, grabbed a free cookie, and began searching for Silly-String.
We looked down several isles before asking an employee where the children's toy section was, only to see that the isle's sign pronounced "TOYS" at the top.
We were laughing hysterically as we went down the isle in search of weapons of mass destruction.
Sadly, Harris Teeter did not carry Silly-String, and we debated getting popper guns, but refrained.
We did decide that EVENTUALLY we WILL go paint-balling, and when we do I am going to have a BLAST!
After our Harris Teeter adventure we drove back to my house where he dropped me off, and I came inside and talked merrily with my aunt about how awesome Spense is and how much I enjoy his company.
I might be a little scared though, because I think that maybe,
JUST MAYBE,
I might be starting to like him...
I wonder what will happen next?
Thanks for continuing to read!
I GOT THE JOB!!!!
I am so friggin stoked about that!
After my interview was over Sky even walked up and said hey, and I had to laugh when the Manager looked at me and said,
"Do you know this crook?"
And Sky was just like,
"Crook?"
As I told the manager how yes, I did indeed know him and that we very close.
Then I went home, and around 6:30 Spenser came to pick me up.
We went to a park and walked around a trail,
Then we went to his house and I sang for him, and he showed me how well he can play guitar.
Then we went to WalMart and picked up hid friend Ryan, who it turns out is also a friend of mine.
We drove around for a while after that, the three of us just laughing and joking and laughing like maniacs.
After we dropped Ryan back off at his car we were driving around some more and I decided to call my friend Eric.
We got to his house at about 10:30, and chilled until 10:50.
Then I came home where I am about to get the BEST SLEEP EVER.
Night Everybody!
So once again, I sat inside pretty much all day.
I did go to the library with my Aunt.
And we stopped by Target on the way home.
Did you know that Target doesn't sell cigarettes?
When I asked what lane I go to to buy some and the lady told me they didn't sell them at all I was taken back for a couple seconds.
It looked like this inside my head:
LJHBDWLJBFIWVFIWB:JBF!!!!!
HOW DUH FUQ DO YOU NOT SELL STOGES?!?!?
YOU CALL YOURSELF A STORE????
But on the outside it was more like this:
*In a completely calm though disbelieving voice*
You're kidding me right?
It was a revelation I did not want to get.
Other than that, today has been uneventful as hell.
I have stayed inside with my two sick cousins pretty much all day.
Though at one point my oldest cousin came back screaming and crying in pain from his body saying, "FUCK YOU!" while he was mowing lawns.
That was actually terrifying.
I just can't wait for tomorrow to get here so I can go get my interview over with, and HOPEFULLY have a job.
Wish me luck internet people!
I haven't posted anything in what seems like forever, and I am SO SORRY for that.
I hope whoever reads this isn't mad...
Anyway, for a short catch-up to now this is what has happened:
I am still on my job search. I did get one interview, and they DEFFINETLY wanted to hire me, but my going back to college in August ruined that.
I got to see one of my closest friends for the first time in a LONG while, even if only for a short amount of time after seeing Men in Black 3 with Spenser.
For the past few days I have been in the house mostly, since Spenser has been in Texas, and no one else cares enough to hang out with me.
Xp
I did turn in an application to BoJangle's though, and today I called to follow up on that submission.
It is already known that I will be going back to college, but I still got an interview!
I am extremely stoked!
Said interview will take place on Wednesday and I am going to try my hardest to get the job.
Tomorrow Spenser will be back from Texas, and hopefully we will get the chance to hang out again.
Not only that, but my BEST-FRIEND who I wrote so much about before now has a car, and I will hopefully get to see him soon.
Six months is far too long to have not seen someone who I used to spend upwards of 15 hours a day with.
Other than that, not much has happened. The past two nights in a row I have gotten my ass handed to me in Monopoly, and today I watched the Blind Side with my family.
Amazing movie, just BTDubs.
My two younger cousins are also extremely sick, and we are ALL hoping they get better ASAP.
There really hasn't been anything else, except for me having insane dreams every night.
Oh well, wish me luck over the next few days, I will try harder to keep posting faithfully!
Sorry I didn't make a post last night, I got home kinda late.
You see, I was hanging out with that cool kid I wrote about last time.
I'll just call him Spenser. :)
So yesterday, I spent almost the WHOLE day inside. And it wasn't bad, but I was DIEING to get out.
So after getting permission to be out till midnight, I made plans to chill with the AWESOME Spenser.
At first we had a plan to go see a band, but sadly, the two of us are only 18, and the band was playing at a 21+ venue.
So instead, we just went to his house, where I met his mom, aunt and uncle, AND his grandparents.
Tasty right?
So after awkwardly saying hello, we went upstairs to the man cave and just started talking.
And awesomely enough, that's all we did the entire time I was there.
At one point his mom walked in and sat down to watch the last few minutes of the NJ vs. LA hockey game, and then she left.
Spense and I talked about all kinds of things though, and found out we had all the same friends.
Neither of us could comprehend how we hadn't met in the three years I have lived in North Carolina, when we know ALL THE SAME PEOPLE.
And throughout the night we discussed many things, and I had a blast.
I loved being able to hang out with a friend and not feel any pressure to smoke any tree, knowing I can't, and no pressure to do anything sexual.
And I could still talk about drugs with him without getting told I am a terrible person!
It was a PERFECT combination, and when he said that we need to chill more when he dropped me off, I sincerely replied,
"Absolutely!"
Then I got home, and went to bed.
Today I did a couple more job applications, and I went to church with the family.
I didn't even skip out on Sunday School or Relief Society.
And that is a HUGE deal for me.
Then I came home and we had family dinner, made cookies, and watched T.V. as a family.
After the two younger boys had gone to sleep, my aunt, oldest cousin, and I all watched the new Red Riding Hood.
I had to bite my tongue the entire time to keep from giving anything away. XD
And now Spense is texting me, telling me about how he is going to his college orientation and how this chick is being WAY obsessive.
In general, I am doing pretty darn well.
Hopefully the good fortune keeps up.
First off, I spent 5 hours mowing lawns today.
But I made 44 bucks from it so that's not so bad.
I also watched movies with my cousins and ate my favorite hot dog of ALL TIME.
The Mexi Hot Dog from Cook Out.
Anyway, yesterday, I spent like 6 hours and my friends,
(We'll just call her Lexxi)
house.
I felt really bad when I left because I hadn't found a place to go soon enough, and her mom was upset because she had to cancel an appointment.
I then got picked up by two of my other friends and we went to chill at their house.
There I sat around and caught them up on my life, and they caught me up on theirs.
They then introduced my to this EXTREMELY cute guy.
This guy I found out was funny, and we were able to talk really easily with our mutually sarcastic humors.
This guy also took me home. :)
We have been texting since last night, and I am actually happy about it.
Neither of us is looking for a relationship right now either, which is GREAT, because that means I am pretty sure I just found a new friend.
I can't wait to get to know him better.
Wish me luck?
A lot happened today, and I need to get some sleep tonight.
I will try to write a FULL recap tomorrow!
Love you all!
I am so very tired and I haven't even done anything today.
Yesterday I went and gathered about 10 job applications, and filled them out at home after spending a few hours at my friend's house.
Then today I filled out a few more applications online, and watched T.V. with my cousins.
I also ate some DAMN GOOD Taco Bell!
Pretty boring day to be honest.
So today was a good day, until the end that is.
It went like this:
I woke up pretty early and ate some breakfast, watched the part one of the season premiere of Teen Wolf, and went with my Grammy to her doctors appointment.
After that, Grammy and I went to WalMart where I bought a set of tongue rings and some new body spray, and she got a two disc CD set.
After purchasing our items, I treated her to some ice cream from McDonalds.
My small way of showing her I love her and appreciate everything she has done for me throughout the years.
Then we headed to her house where I sat and ate pretzel sticks with her,colored a picture of a cat, and watched some T.V.
When my aunt brought over my little cousin he and I went swimming in her pool.
That was all good fun and all until I decided to put on some goggles.
That was when I saw the dead spider at the bottom of the pool.
My arachnophobia prevented me from getting in the water after that.
Then, to kick up my phobia a little more, a mom who was there tried to splash a dead spider out of the pool, only IT WASN'T DEAD.
So I quickly squished the nasty little thing and continued to sit and chat while her two boys and my cousin played in the pool.
After taking my hair down to try and keep it having some semblance of neatness,I ran my fingers through it.
Feeling a tickle on my hand and believing there would be some hair causing the feeling I looked down to see yet ANOTHER SPIDER.
Needless to say my cousin and I left soon after that incident.
Back and my Grammys house, my cousin and I sat and watched T.V. together while coloring more pictures of cats.
When my aunt, who had gone out to do some errands, returned to get us, I gave my Grammy a loving hug, and off we went.
Picking up my second youngest cousin, we went to a Kangaroo to make use of their summer deal, where if you buy a $7 Roo Cup you get 25 cent refills the rest of the summer.
Noticing how close we were to one of my friends houses, I asked my aunt if I could go and hang out.
When she said okay, I was ecstatic!
At my friends house we sat around and talked and talked, catching up on the last month and talking about different crushes and other girly shit.
Then one of our other friends came over.
They weren't there very long, but it was good to see them, and I started to text them after they left.
A little later, my aunt came to get me and we went home after a stop at Advanced Auto Parts for tail light bulbs.
At home I ate a wonderful peanut butter and jam sandwich and continued my JOB HUNT in my room.
After submitting two more applications I got a text from the friend I had seen earlier today asking if I wanted to hang out.
I said that I would love to but I would need to ask my aunt first.
At 9:30 she finally told me I could go, but that I needed to be home by 11.
So I went outside to wait for my friend.
I sat there for an HOUR texting them asking when they were going to get here, and then, after an hour of "I'll be on my way soon"s, they tell me they aren't coming.
It is already 10:25 at this point, and I have no one close enough to hang out with, so I go and smoke a cigarette out of frustration, and walk back into the house.
I don't understand people.
If you aren't going to go hang out with someone, at least tell them in advance so that they have a CHANCE to make other plans.
Don't beat around the bush.
Don't ignore the situation.
If you're going to blow me off, at least give it to me straight that that is in fact what you are doing.
My aunt is right, I need to find better friends.
So that bike ride I went on yesterday left me feeling SO sore that I woke up with a migraine this morning.
It was so bad I CRIED.
I hate being in that much pain, but then again, doesn't everybody?
So I slept pretty much all day, and did absolutely nothing.
Guess you could call it a lazy day.
Oh well.
Now I am about to go to sleep, just after I finish watching The Zoo Keeper.
More real life stories tomorrow!
Alright, today, my first day back in the wonderful place called North Carolina, I didn't really do ANYTHING.
I slept until 10 in the morning, then had a glass of milk.
After doing two and a half job applications, I had a peanut butter and jam sandwich at 2:30 for lunch.
Then I finished up my third job application and did one more.
After all that excitement, I rode my Uncle's bike for around a half an hour I think to the Walgreens that is forever and a day away to get an application because I didn't see anything online.
Well neither Walgreens OR the gas station right across the street, where I bought a vitamin water for my parched throat, were hiring.
The trip was pretty much for nothing.
It was cool that in the parking lot of Walgreens I saw one of my friends.
Though I guess I'm more friends with his brother than him.
We talked for a few minutes, and I told him to tell his brother I said hi, then we went our separate ways.
Then I rode the bike ALL THE WAY BACK to my Aunt and Uncles house, feeling like I was going to DIE.
And after failing to make plans to hang out with ANY of my friends, sat and watched Avatar the last Air-Bender with my two youngest cousins before taking a shower and updating this here blog.
Other than the four applications and what little unpacking I got done today, I would say it was a very slow day.
So today I sat on a bus for 11 HOURS.
That was NOT my cup of tea.
I did meet this cute guy though.
His name is Tyler, and he is actually really cool.
He also got my number in a very slick fashion.
:)
I did bust my elbow on the window after tripping.
And I had to deal with a new bus when my second to last bus was an hour late.
And I had to sit next to a creepy older guy the rest of the way home.
Other than that, not a whole lot has happened.
I guess you could say it was an overall stressful day.
Oh well, tomorrow will be better, as it is the start of THE GREAT JOB SEARCH!!!
Wish me luck. :)
