Working through the Four Seasons
SO
The past week went by so slowly. The same thing everyday. School... not to mention that math class is the EXACT FUCKING SAME THING everyday!! And I have it straight away in the morning which is just not pleasant. But German class on Friday was great! Frau Feltz did a presentation on her stay in Austria which was very cool. That was really the only nice thing that happened at school.
Friday night at work was this week with Elle. I missed closing with you, Erin - and Elle it was great seeing you on a Friday, but then missed you on Saturday! My schedule is back to normal though now so after this weekend hopefully we can have our normal dates 
Saturday was nice to sleep in a bit. Then in the afternoon Chamber Strings had a concert. We had to go to our teaches church, which I find kind of annoying, especially that it was on the weekend... but putting it aside, it went quite well. We played the Four Seasons by Vivaldi. It took forever, but I think we kicked a bit of ass at it.
Sunday was an 8-5 shift. Being in grill all day, I feel very nasty and really want to go to sleep. After work I went to the grocery store for my weekly food, went home, and made my lunch for tomorrow.
Sleep. Now.
Bitch Customer, Long-Ass Week
Well the weekend was okay. Sunday at work sucked major ass. This woman came in and yelled at us because we forgot her fries. I was making shakes and she just stared at me when Erin apologized and gave her fries. She looked like she was going to kill me. She turned around with her fries and kept starting. I said "ooookayyyy" because she creeped the hell out of me. Then she went off even more. Everyone was just so... "holy shit, what is wrong with this woman?" Anyway that day just was not too good of one... I was in an awful mood. To top off that wonderful day, I got home and our washing machine was broken. So that means, my clothes were almost all dirty. Yippie. Luckily it is fixed now though.
Monday was just a boring day of school. Yippee!!
Tuesday after school Steph and I went to the Chocolate Caper in Oregon. We each spent about $15 on chocolate! It's SO amazing and delicious. Then we went to Noodles and Company and ate and then loitered for like... 1.5 hours. It was so wonderful. We will do that again soon.
Today was just school and work. Work was nice and easy, I am just tired and cannot wait to go to sleep. Speaking of sleep, after typing I am going to do that.
My espresso machine is working well and it helps me get through the day. I have been trying different ways of making my morning mocha. Everyday they are getting better, so that is great! I am not really looking forward to bringing the machine back and forth every week to each house, but I guess it's just another box to bring. When I get my own place, it'll be far more than worth it.
Also my iPhone is wonderful - it's just so easy and convenient to have internet all the time. I never thought I would ever have it.
My paychecks have been wonderful lately... I think I am going to buy a new camera soon. A Canon Rebel T3i. They're not too expensive, and I think that the memories will be worth the money. Not to mention they are much better than my current camera, which is very nice but doesn't work too well in low-lighting. Also, the touch screen (the only way to use the camera) is starting to go bad.
It's been kind of tough lately. I have been very depressed and I have been finding little interesting or funny. It's just been... numb. I am still missing somebody badly and not an hour passes that I think of him. It's just difficult and I don't want to be a creep. . . I cannot explain the feelings, nor do I feel the need to, but shit I feel like a hopeless creep! Oh well.
Well, let's see what the rest of the week brings.
The Week
Well this week wasn't too awful.
On Monday I bought an iPhone. It's very different from any phone I have ever had before, so it'll take a while to get used to. But I am very excited for this.
The second semester isn't too awful. My classes do go by relatively quickly which is good. I still can't wait to get the fuck out of that school forever though.
I got a hair cut / layering on Wednesday with Taby. We also went to Red Robin. My hair much easier to manage now, and my bangs don't go down to my chin.
Friday night I worked until midnight-thirty. I'm damn tired, but am very excited to use my new espresso machine tomorrow! Work was good, but holy shit do people love their precious Shamrock shakes. Christ they're disgusting... We went through bag after bag of shake mix. For fuck's sake people, STOP ORDERING THOSE DAMN SHAKES.
That is all for today.
The Past Few Weeks
The past few weeks have been difficult ones. Since the German GAPP members went back home, it has been quite difficult to find motivation for pretty much anything, and to have certain types of happiness. I had some strong feelings for one of them, which is even more difficult that they have a girlfriend. Eh. Depression has come back in full-force and it is very hard to try to stay thinking positive... All I would like to do is graduate high school and get the hell out of here. I want to do it now, and the longer I stay here the more I get depressed. Well, to keep me busy I guess I can plan for the future, create goals for myself, work more (13 hours last Saturday, HA!), and hang out with friends more.
I don't know why I'm typing this all on here, I guess it can ease some the feelings or whatever.
On the bright side, I just got my new computer in the mail tonight and it is so much faster than my old one! I also have been watching a bit more Anime. I quite enjoy it, much more than I ever thought I would. Also I have been developing certain applications for my personal future. Like MyRecipes SE - A database of Breakfast, Lunch/Dinner, Snacks, Desserts, Drinks, etc., all available by the touch of a finger. I would like to have a computer with these capabilities on my counter when I have my own kitchen, as I LOVE making food. Speaking of food, at McDonald's, I have recently learned eggs, lunch meats, and lunch assemble. It's just pretty funny as I am a vegetarian. Also, there has been some thought that I may enter the management training program. I think I'd enjoy it for the most part... but who knows. It'll all come with time.
As for the near future, I need to start exercising. I have been eating so healthy lately, and should really care for my body in other ways as well. Here I come, Anytime Fitness! I also hope to update a little bit more regularly. It seems to help my organization - and I haven't updated since October! Shit, where'd those three months go!?
Back home, back into the routine, FUN WEEKEND!
WELL,
After getting back from San Antonio, I have been extremely depressed and it has been quite a while since we've been back. All I have been doing is work and school. It just kills me.
It doesn't help that I had to pay $570 to fix my brakes on my car. My car is running on fumes and I cannot afford to fill it up!
So. Yeah...
WELL,
The past weekend was great! First on Friday, Molly, Lexa and I hung out. We watched part of "A Harry Potter Musical." We also tried to make iced coffee... and we failed EPICALLY!! LOL!! We had tons of fun. After going to McDonald's for Strawberry Lemonades, we got back to Lexa's house and Emi was there! While she was there we watched Zombieland. After Molly had to go and Lexa had to sleep, Emi and I went downtown. It was awesome. We walked around Main Street, in small areas, everywhere. There were lots of drunk people out and it was lots of fun laughing at them. There were tons of police everywhere, but none of the even questioned us about being out at 2.30AM. LOL!! After we walked around for a few hours, we went back to her house and ate snacks and talked. I got home and went to bed at 4.00AM.
Saturday, I slept in a little. I took the day on slowly. In the late afternoon, I went over to Taby's house. We went and visited Tony at his job. After wreaking havoc there we left and went to pick up some of my things for the sleepover. We went back to her house and screwed around with her Macbook and my iPod... very interesting. When Tony finished work, he came over. We looked in these Teen magazines (from Australia) and red the sex areas. Some people have the funniest problems! We then decided to go get a pizza from Pizza Hut. So we did. While we were waiting for the pizza to be finished, we went back to her house, swapped cars, went to McDonald's to get Strawberry Lemonades, and then back to Pizza Hut again. We picked up our pizza and headed over to Tony's house (he needed some things.) We ate the pizza in his basement while screwing around with his webcam. After leaving for Taby's house again, we talk and have random giggles. When it got to be the later hours of the night through the earliest hours of the next day, we shut off the lights and shit, was it funny! Taby kept freaking out... so we kept scaring her, sneaking up and around... man it was freaky but it was SO FUN! LOL!! Especially hiding under the bed and hiding the torch! Eventually we all got to sleep.
Sunday morning I had to leave Taby's early. I had to march in the Syttende Mai parade for band. It hurt... After the parade, I had to work for three hours. Not too bad...
SUCH a fun weekend.
This week was all school - I took the week off of work. I have the sacred concert tomorrow, then the orchestra theme concert on Saturday... I sure hope my wig gets here!!!
The Weekend to Today
Friday was fun. Tony and I went to the mall. I bought some new shirts and sunglasses at H&M, as well as one shirt from JC Penny. It was a lot of fun.
Saturday I had to work at 7 AM. Sunday I had to work at 7 AM. It was nice though after getting my things together and going to my mom's house to spend some time with her. We watched "Easy A." Great movie.
Monday was so nice. I didn't have to work or do anything! I got some decent sleep, and then worked on my room a bit more, as well as painted! I also worked out. (I am still sore at the time of writing this, wednesday!) P90X isn't too intimidating at first... but it hurts afterwards! I'm so out of shape. At about 8:30 Emi called and I drove on into town and we hung out. We talked a LOT. It was nice and fun. I left at about 2 AM. Fuck was I tired!
Tuesday I slept until 11:15 AM! That is the THIRD latest I have EVER slept! My day went by so quickly... especially because I had to work at 3 PM! That kind of sucked, as I did not feel very well.
Today is (was) wednesday. I had a great time! My dad and I drove down to Illinois - the IKEA store in Schaumburg, Illinois. It was HUGE! We looked at everything - from top to bottom - Floor 1 to floor 3. We were in there for about two hours. It was awesome. I got a SKUBB laundry hamper, VILA bed sheets + pillow case, GÄSPA pillow case, BRUNKRISSLA comforter, and mashed potatoes. LOL! We also got some miscellaneous other items, like a bamboo plant, rocks, vase, garbage cans, and some other things. After the amazing IKEA store, we went to the Olive Garden. I had the Minnestrone and 5.5 bread sticks. YUM! A GREAT day.
I cannot wait until I can decorate my own home one day!
Well, I work tomorrow at 8 AM. Then, I go to Chicago on Friday thru Sunday for the orchestra tour.
My Week
Well, this week was quite enjoyable. First on Monday after school, I went to Emi's house. We talked for a few minutes and got her vegan cupcakes and veggie platter ready for the GAPP meeting. Then we went to the meeting, which really made me realize that I am actually going to Germany! I'M SO EXCITED!!
Tuesday was the Concerto concert with the orchestras. Before the concert my mom and I went to El Rio Grande. She had never been there before and she loved it! We got to talk for a long time which was very nice as we are both always so busy. I had my usual - Veggie Platter #2 (two bean burritos covered in cheese sauce.) The concert went well. After the concert was over, I got to talk with my old orchestra teacher for a while which was nice. Then, a bunch of people and I went to Culver's, like we always do after an orchestra concert. This was hilarious!! We were kind of loud... especially because we were laughing the entire time! I love Selena's laugh! I had a short chocolate shake and small fries, as usual. There are photos on facebook.
Wednesday I had to work. I worked at 5 PM, and the weather was nasty. It was so windy and rainy. After my shift, I go outside and try to unlock my car. The locks were frozen and you couldn't turn the key. UGH! So after trying various methods to get in, I called my dad and he picked me up. I had to leave my car over night.
Thursday started out horribly. My hair wouldn't cooperate, I spilled my oatmeal all over myself, the counter, cupboard doors, and the floor, I was late to school, and my car wouldn't start. It was still at McDonald's. It got slightly better as I got to school. Near the end of the half day of school, the Badger Conference Large Group Band Festival took place. We had to wear formal wear. I brought my tuxedo and planned on changing right before we went on stage. Yeah... my white undershirt was not in my tuxedo bag!! I had to wear a t-shirt under my coat. It looked SO stupid! I felt stupid too. But oh well, things happen. We played Windsprints and Symphonic Dance No. 3 Fiesta very well. When we finished playing, we were critiqued by the judge person.
After this, Tony took Emi, Taby, and me in his car. He dropped Emi off for her babysitting. Then, we went to McDonald's to pick up my car, as the temperature had risen a considerable amount since the night before, and the sun was shining on the locks. I easily get into the car, but when I turn the key in the ignition... Lights and dinging, and then nothing. My battery died! This is the second time this year it has died... hmm... So we left it there again and went to eat at Taco Bell. I had a bean burrito with no onions, some potato wedges, and a crispy potato soft taco (which I asked for with no sauce or lettuce.) The lady with the mustache who took my order said "it doesn't come with sauce." I said it did, but she just denied it. Of course, the sauce was still on it. Oh well, it was only a dollar. Then we dropped Taby off, and we went to the high school to meet up to go laser tagging with Chamber Strings. Well, Bryce, Laura, Shaylee, Emma, Kaylie (Jewdy), Tony and I. We got all the way to Ultrazone and they were not even open yet! LOL! So we decided to go the mall, which was equally as fun. There was a display for this outdoor living space company in the middle of the mall, and we made it our summer home. It was beautiful! We went to the Apple store and had a ton of fun with iPads... photos! They are on facebook as well. That was a blast!
I got promoted!
Today was great. I worked from 8-3, and got promoted to Crew Trainer. This comes with more responsibility. Daily job, PM job, Follow-Up SOCs, Training, Comments, and more. But, I will get a gold name tag, red shirt, and raise! Yay raise! 
I'm off to my mom's house to spend some time with my brother before he goes off to boot camp in Texas. Hopefully it will be nice.
