A Smack in the Face


Well, what did I get on my wonderful return from Arizona? You know, what was supposed to be a heavenly week of being with my friends in Texas and getting back to having a goold ol' time?

Oh, well, let's see, suddenly, I'm carless, virtually moneyless, gradeless, baseless, trustless, and utterly incapable of success... according to my parents. Yeah, thanks, I leave the home and you people still manage to make me miserable. What the hell?

So I'm reevaluating my future, now. I WAS planning on working for my dad's company over the summer to make some spending money for next year, but I really really hate Arizona. I still desperately need financial help from my family, but I just can't stand being with them. I'd really like to get a nice job here (perhaps with Data Doctors) and rent out an apartment. Then, I could bring my car down here for next year (when I actually own a car) and I'll have an apartment, and then I can just jump into college without being in the dorms...

But then I'll need a roommate, starting in the summertime. Any takers*?




Because, seriously, walls are closing in on me and I'm doing all I can to be able to breathe. That means I can't go to any more movies, I'm seriously cutting back on how much I eat out, no more buying random crap for my dorm (in fact, I have two nerf guns for sale now) and that bike is looking a whole lot less expensive than car rides everywhere.

But I love it here. The weather is perfect, there are trees and grass and squirrels, I have very good friends, and I've had a lot of good times. I love UTA, and above all else, I have Kristen, whom I love very much, and she's always there for me.
