This is more fun than studying


So Charlie is still in the shop, they haven't called to tell me whether he's ready to be picked up of not.  Mom's driving around in the rental car, a convertable Mustang, and I'm driving her car around.  I'm hoping that they will be finished with Charlie soon and that my parents will be nice and come bring my him up to me instead of me going back down there, I don't really want to go down there and visit them last weekend wasn't very fun and I'm afraid with both of them in town the weekends are just going to start getting worse and I don't really want to deal with that.  I like being in happy moods and my parents seem to rain on that parade.

In other news my interview with JC Penney went really well, the 2 ladies that I talked with were really nice and I'm actually really excited about working there!  They had originally offered me a position in the accessory which would get me 20-25 hours a week, not as many as I would have liked, so when I called and accepted the job I asked if I would been able to get more hours once I started.  So Kellie, one of the ladies that I interviewed with, said that they could put me in the juniors department getting 30-35 hours a week.  Not too bad, it will be a nice paycheck.  I'll be making a little over minimum wage, so hopefully I'll be able to make rent and all that fun stuff without my parents help.  But i've done the math and if I work 35hrs each week I'll be making about $1100 a month, which is pretty good, it will help me save money for next school year and pay for our disney trip and apartment stuff.  Also working there I'll get discounts on stuff which will help with anything I need for my new pad...when I actually have one.

Other then that my life has been blissfully boring.  I really don't want to study for my 2 finals that I have tomorrow.  I have high A's in both of the classes and I'm pretty sure I'm going to be getting A's in both of them so I guess I'm just not worried like I should be.  I'm going over to Edward's today at 2 to study for my Stellar exam.  It shouldn't be too bad, whatever.  
Harley has been a big help studying as usual, she sleeps on the foot of the bed while I sit in her spot with my study stuff all around me.  She's really good at telling me when I need a break too.  I'll get up to go to the bathroom or go get a snack and I come back to her in her spot sleeping on my book or notes.  Silly puppy, she leads such a hard life, and thankfully she doesn't drool in her sleep!

ok I'm going to actually try and study now.

A mini Rant

I want to go back up to Austin.  This weekend (the past 48+ hours) has made me realize, again, why I don't like coming down to my parents house.  The only reason I'm not back in Austin right now is because tomorrow is Mother's day and for some strange reason, even though my mom is being a total witch with a capital B, I feel the need to stay down here to be with her tomorrow since the gift I got her won't be here until next week since she was supposed to be in Hawaii until next Sunday.  Both my parents are getting on my nerves, they are treating me like I'm a little kid that needs to be told what to do and how to do it.  I decided to be nice and make lunch for everyone today and my mom walks into the kitchen and starts telling me what to do and how to cook, I know how to cook, the lunch I made I've made tons of times for myself, but I get down here and I don't know how to do it, I need my mommy to tell me what to do and question why I'm putting stuff on there or how to cook squash and start cooking things when I'm doing it.  I wish I could go back to Austin and not be bothered.  My mom just stormed out of the house, no reason...apparently from what my dad said we were all going to go up to Austin today or something like that, but didn't feel the need to TELL anyone this, so she gets mad and storms out of the house without telling us why...whatever
