Countdown to College!

It's Been Awhile

So schools not horrible...
Actually, the first couple days were REALLY boring.
My stats class might not happen (it's a college class and they can't find anyone to teach it) so nothing happened that block.
Journalism was nothing but talk about goals and shit.
Choir was...well...choir.
and Then open block which I couldn't leave because I just got the permission slip that day.
Next day, Painting and Drawing and Mrs Budding wasn't there so we did a book assignment.
Mentoring which I also couldn't do because of the permission slip thing.
Government...not horribly boring but a lot of introduction stuff.
Lastly, Physics. Again, intro stuff.

However, it was nice to see everyone again. I didn't realize how much I missed everyone.

Another update:

New boy.
His name's Steve. Just turned 20. He's a badass.
Well, not really. He got into some bad shit in high school, but knows how stupid it all was, and now he has his own place and he starts a new job tomorrow (at 11.50 an hour!!).
I'm actually really proud of him for doing as well as he does. His parents aren't great, never had good influences. It seems he wants to do better though. He has potential, he just needs encouragement.

Mom and Dad met him the other day. It was a very casual thing. They were in the beer tent and we went by to say hi because mom's old friend Carol was there and she wanted to see me all growed up. It was good times.

So there we go. Not much else new.

Oh, my hair is brown and purple now. HA!
A few thick purple streaks and the rest is light brown. I love it!

Ok all for now. later

I've been thinking about this, and I just want to say a general note of caution and then I'm done:

The most difficult relationships to make work are those where two people are in different places in their lives. When you're in different places, you have different priorities, and it's often difficult to make them work together. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, just that it's more difficult.
