W--- update

So, I figured something out. EPIPHANY! haha. I've been looking at this relationship the whole wrong way! We ARE just friends, but we are the type of friends you see on TV. You know, the type that can do just about anything together and not feel awkward. I can't believe I hadn't thought of that before. That makes me feel relieved and happy for a few reasons. One, I don't have to be stressed or upset that he doesn't want to be my official boyfriend. Two, I've always wanted a close guy friend/brother/homie person to be in my life. Yes, we kiss and snuggle, but we never were ones to submit to normal society rules....and it's really fun! :P

Hasta la vista!

Update

        So, I got my second job. Thankfully, it wasn't as big of a deal as it was to get jobs in the past. This lady from a bike rental place emailed me. I had asked her for a job a few months ago, but since she has a summer business, there were no openings. She is a really nice, upbeat, laid back person. The bike place is WFR. It should be lots of fun, as I am laid back, and love people, and love being outside. I don't have to deal with too many employees, or a lot of supervisors running around, telling me what to do. Once I get the hang of all the jobs, I will be left there alone during my shift, with occasional help when it is busy. I have to either open or close. If I get the opening shift, I make sure all the bikes are out, including the display bike that goes down the street, signs, the cart with the cash register, and the canopy are all in their correct spots. I have to make sure that the cash register is on and working and has the right amount of money in it. I have to make sure that all the bikes are clean and working the right way, and then I have to make sure we have all the paper work. As fort dealing with guests, there is a lot to keep track of. If I close, I have to put everything away, including the heavy double surreys, and the display bike down the street, I have to do a bunch of closing paperwork, and make sure that all the extra money goes in the safe, then I have to lock everything up safe and clean, and perfect. It's a lot of responsibility, but that just makes it better. At S------, the main thing I have to be responsible for is that I deal the correct amount of money, that the lobby is clean, and that if anything runs out, i get more from the back.
       On another subject, I leave for San Diego in four days, and CSUN in three months. I have so much to do, but I still have to wait for the right times in which to do them. GRRRRR. I can't wait for Thursday. I finally get to see Summer and June and Dae. Not to mention Liz, my soon-to-be dorm-mate, and W----. I might be able to even squeeze in a visit with J---- and E---- while I am at CSUN. I will be so busy this weekend. I have to visit everybody, go to CSUN, and make sure that my Mom feels the love on her birthday. Luckily, her friends are taking most of the responsibility for the birthday, and my friend Liz is helping me get to CSUN. I still have to arrange my time so that I get to see everybody, and not drive my hosts crazy. (I am sleeping at Lizzy's house, unless her mom kicks me out. Luckily, I might still be able to crash with Summer if that happens....right? RIGHT?!). I am starting to get things for my dorm, but I will mostly make a list of things I need and get them there. I don't want to have to spend my first weekend there unpacking the whole time. I want to party with my friends. WOOT WOOT!

Hasta la vista!

Communication

     I was passing by subway the other day, just minding my own business, when I heard a voice call out to me. I freaked out until I realized that it was my friend using the drive thru speaker. So, I did what any self-respecting adult would do. I walked over and had a five minute conversation through the drive thru speakers. DUH.
     I have a question. If you announce that you have something funny to say, does that make people more or less likely to laugh at what you have to say? On one hand, they are all primed and ready to laugh. On the other hand, they are expecting something funny, and might build it up too much. What do you think?

Hasta la vista
