I wish people didn't care about stupid stuff.
and maybe i'm just jealous.

test
Hmmm. i feel very lonely tonight. I'm loooooooonely. But i also feel very stupid and ridiculous.
This was my day:
-woke up around 8:30. Took shower and all that good stuff. I took my sweet golly time getting ready. I SPENT AN HOUR IN THE BATHROOM. I'm so vain.
-Around ten I headed to the library to pick up some kiddie books for the boys I was babysitting today. I dropped by the mailroom to send off the shoes amber bought from me. I TRIED to buy something in the coffee shop, but while it was open... nobody was around to help me. So i left. They don't get my dollar. your loss.
-Went back to my room and got everything ready to go to my first nanny job. woooooo. all my papers and my "nanny bag" (which is just my backpack with kid stuff in it). Drove to Vancouver to find this place.
-Babysat from 11:30 till 4:30. Two boys, Michael and Henry, 3 and 2 respectively. Both still in diapers. In a huge house, brand new, but incredibly dirty. THe whole time all i could think was 1) you don't need this much space. You don't even have enough stuff to furnish it and 2) you have this nice of a house and you can't take care of it? I could do so much better. Anyhow- the boys were good, except for naptime. That was a chore. But they went down for almost two hours, and i got to read some homework (ragamuffin gospel by brennan manning), and when they woke up, it was all home free. Mom came home at 4:20 and i got out of there with my 50 dollar check! hallelujah! And it's already spent! woooo!!! yay i'm so good at financial things.
-So i left the house at 4:20. Their house was right by where I-5 and I-205 are about to come together. Stupidly, I got on I-5 south instead of I-205, so i ended up way over by downtown instead of my neighborhood. In rush hour. With not very much gas in my car. I was freakin out. Luckily i finally found a 76 where i could buy gas.
-It took me 25 minutes (at the most) to drive from the school to these people's house. It took me an hour to get home. AN HOUR. that was including a 5 minute stop at the bank. Went to dinner and found tai and janelle in the cafeteria. we talked a long time.
-went to my room. sat around. went up to tai and janelle's room to see if they would walk to the student union with me to check my mail. They would :) I GOT MY STICKERS FROM CARROLL!!! yaaaaay carroll. She bought me twothirtyeight stickers at a show she went to last saturday (they are not coming around here anytime soon, and they don't sell merch online). Yay stickers to put on my car. Oh and randomly there was "outbreak" just started on the big screen tv in the student union, so tai and i sat and watched the whole thing.
-then i came back here. What an exciting day!
Man am I sore, just from that initiative game last night. Oye veh.

It's just one of those nights you wish you had someone to call up and say "hey". Someone who will just give you a hug and will just talk with you. THAT someone.
PA group interviews were tonight. went pretty well. We just did initiative games, because they want to see how you work in a group. interesting. I don't say much in large groups of people i don't know.
Saw cute boy at the Kinko's again. Man. I let him explain to me all about express pay. I should've asked more question including "what's your phone number?" haha. just kidding. i would never.
I guess that's all. Things are looking up. I got a nanny job for tomorrow (yaaaaay) and i found someone to buy my Van's (yaaaaaaaaaay) so pretty soon i'm gonna actually have some money, which means i can tithe, and i can buy my brother a birthday present, AND i can buy the new switchfoot cd :) God is so good.

Yaaay. I just got back from seeing Mates of State with Natalie, and it was Soooooooooo good. All we wanna know is when they're gonna come back. It was a nice, long set and it was just so good, and they are so stinkin' cute. I loved it. Good, good music.
I did a lot of stuff this weekend (not homework though). Two basketball games, mini service project, two baby showers (yay one for rinda and joel), church, went to long beach on Monday. It was a good weekend. When i'm busy I don't stop to think about things, and sometimes that's good.
Last night, though, I did have time to think about things. I decided it's high time i start living for God and myself, and not other people. I shouldn't be trying so hard to live up to others' expecations. That's stupid.
Tomorrow night is the first round of PA interviews.ah.ah.ah.ah. Hm.
"Is that the same charm
from way back when?"-Mates of State
