REAONS I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY LIFE RIGHT NOW:

1. I have the greatest friends a person can ask for. True, they live 30 miles south of me and I can only spend time with them when I go down there for school, but they make the drive well worth it. And I have even taken to driving down there on days I don't have to just to be with them. I love them with all my heart, and it's going to make me sad to leave for the summer and not see them for 3 months! I heart Teresa, Chris, and Amy!

2. Leaving this summer means I GOT HIRED AS A COUNSELOR AT STAR LAKE CAMP!!!! No kidding. =) I got hired last month, and I found out for sure today when the training days are and everything. I'll be going up the first week of June, but I'll have a weekend training session in a month. I'm a woods counselor. =) Brent is the cook, Briana is gonna be Service Staff Director again, Frankie is still the maintenance man I believe, Dave is still manager. This is going to be the most amazing summer of my life!

3. After this summer, I will be moving out of my parent's house. For sure. I will be moving down to Austin, to be closer to school. I plan on getting an apartment with my friend Chris, and once Teresa turns 18 in January she's gonna move in with us! Hopefully everything will go as planned... a kink might be thrown in because Chris and Teresa are dating, and if anything happens it would be strange. But they are so truly in love... I can't see anything bad happening. But you have to prepare for the worst.

4. DATING! I got asked out! =) By Jake. I know, I have mentioned before that I wasn't really interested, I don't want to go out with him, blah blah blah. Well, my opinion changed a little after the choir trip to the Cragun's Music Festival, and I had an amazing time hanging with the guys. It didn't go as planned, and in the end we decided that its probably not best to start a relationship right now because I'm leaving for the summer and he's going to be going to a different school in the fall... but it still made me feel really good to actually be asked out and to have someone like me.

5. Theres another guy (John) that I am madly in like with and he and I have been flirting like crazy. It's a confusing situation though, because he doesn't want to go out with anyone right now either... he says he has a lot on his plate right now. Well... we'll see how that goes. =)

6. Nancy, the god awful choir director, got fired! Right after I posted my last entry. My voice teacher is now directing the choir, and it has been amazing. AMAZING! We've gotten so much done, and she knows what she is doing. Everyone in the choir is so incredibly happy, and after Nancy got fired everyone that had left because of her came back. And Dori, our accompanist who left because of her, came back. And Dori is so awesome and we all missed her so much. Attendance is up, and we sound fantastic. I am happy she got fired, and even more happy that Sonia took over.

THINGS THAT AREN'T THE BEST RIGHT NOW:

1. Despite the fact that Jake and I agreed not to go out, he keeps doing little things that makes me think he really does, and it's driving me nuts! If you are not gonna go out with me, don't tease me! But it is oh so nice to be held and cuddle and play footsie and blah blah blah. I hate being teased like that!

2. Almost everyone I know will be gone when I get back in the fall! Amy is going to a different school, Jake is leaving, John is graduating, all of my Owatonna friends are graduating and leaving. It makes me so sad, and I have to say I am really going to be clinging to the next couple weeks of school, trying to make them last longer.

3. School is going alright, but not perfect. I am failing one class- Exposition and Argumentation. And it sucks really bad. And I don't know if I'm gonna be able to pull it out in time. I really don't want another F on my transcript, but I can't drop the class because then I would lose my health insurance. I'm not sure if the same thing will happen if I fail. I'm not sure what to do about this situation.

4. I am still unemployed, and have been living month to month since January. I have had interviews and such, but no luck getting hired other than camp. By the time I finally got back on track with my meds and got rid of some of this damn anxiety, it wasn't worth getting a job because I'd be leaving for camp right away. I've been doing small and odd jobs, but that doesn't mean my parents have stopped constantly reminding me that I am unemployed and need to find a job. Ridiculous. Luckily, I have a babysitting job tonight for a couple hours, and I have done some work for my grandpa this week while my mom is in Flordia, and I will be getting paid for that as well.

5. Shaun and I are not friends anymore. For sure. But this is not necessarily a bad thing. I have been so happy since I stopped talking to her, it's ridiculous. It's been a month and a half now, and life couldn't be better. She was a horrible friend and held me back so much socially. It made me depressed for a while, but that was because I was so alone. I didn't see anybody else that was there. But now I have Chris and Teresa and Amy and Cassie and Martha and several other people, and I am doing well. =)

Well. That's a short update, because it's been so long since I've updated! I've become a LJ and Myspace addict. Seriously. It's sad. haha. But I'm gonna try to do another entry before I leave for the summer. I love D-land too much to get rid of it completely.
