Whoa...
It's been like forever since I've posted last. Mainly because I just remembered my password...So since June 16th I've done a lot. Got a new job as a tea cart girl, so I serve tea and cookies. Exciting. (Note: I don't have my glasses on so its hard to see the screen so if there are misspellings I'm sorry lol) I started my second year of college, lots of hard classes. For a while our football team had been doing well, not so much anymore. Only about a month til finals and Christmas break, I think I can last...I also need a job up at school, badly. The lack of a car limits me to jobs on or close to campus. I could take the bus but they aren't too reliable off campus. I have some big news but I'll make you feel the suspense. Saturday is the big MSU vs UofM game, families will be split, brothers against brothers. Riots with occur and one team will win. Should be crazy! My little sister turned 17 yesterday, whoa can you believe it? So about 7 screaming giggling girls came at 5:30 and are still here today. Makes it a little hard to study. I have two exams this week, wonderful. I need to get ready for church. Don't have many church clothes at home, so I have to be creative and put things together and hope that they work. lol People should understand I hope! lol

Motor Muster weekend!
You all should come to the village this weekend! and come visit me! :) I work from 11-9pm today and 11-5 tomorrow. Whew what a weekend! If I am bussing I serioulsy will not be happy. lol So yesterday, we didn't go see a movie but we did go to the pyschic (which I now can spell lol). She said that I will meet a man soon and he'll be the one and he is handsome and will be very successful in life. So score, lol. She said that jade is my power stone, I happen to have a real jade necklace from China, interesting. I think I'll wear it more. lol She said I had a long life line with no deadly diseases. She thought two kids, who will be very happy. She said I have a strong relationship with my family. I have to relisten to the tape, she recorded the whole session, to remember more. I got my Dad his present, Mel Brooks dvds. lol My friend had never heard of Mel Brooks. We went to Best Buy and saw Chuck Tulley there. He is the guy that checks people's bags as they leave (like at Sam's Club) so with that in mind, the best quote of the day....
chuck: Hey, I saw you guys walk in but you didn't see me
Me: Oh well I'm looking for the Mel Brooks dvd set
Chuck: Well I'll just use this sweet walkie talkie and ask someone
Me: ok.....(so the guy comes and tells me that don't sell that, poo)
Me: So why is your polo yellow and everyone's elses is blue?
Chuck: I'm the best and I make sure no one steals anything
Me: So why did that lady just walk through and it beeped and you didn't do anything...
Chuck: She looked like a nice lady, sometimes I let them slide!
LOL omg lol so you can steal from the Southland Best Buy and Chuck will let you...
For anyone of you who love Mel brooks movies, I got him Blazing Saddles, The Producers (the original one), and Airplane! All classics. It was either that or the National Lampoon Vacations dvds. (Maybe I'll buy those for myself.... :) )

A little mad...
So at work, each cashier gets her own drawer/key for the day. When you step away from the drawer or switch drawers to go on break you are supposed to log out and lock your drawer. Then the computer is insync with your drawer. So I come back from break and there is a line so I decide to wait a little while and let the other girl take the customers (I was not in any hurry to deal with rude customers...) So she takes her drawer out and goes to register 2. So I put my drawer in and start taking customers. About 30 minutes later I look at one of the reciepts and notice that it says Shar......Mine are supposed to say Lism. Uh oh, the other girl didn't log out. So now the credit card reciepts are in her name but in my drawer. So now my drawer is going to be over like 60 dollars and her's will be under for the same amount. I better not get fired for what she did. 50 dollars is the limit before termination...grr. My manager said that security will figure out what happened and it will be alright. Hopefully...
I was thinking today after some observations that I made yesterday. My family is different and no one can relate to how we are. I mean the things in my life are things that other families don't have. My grandparents fly all over the world likes its as easy as going to Ohio. Oh and I also noticed how insenitive some people can be, like I was sitting with my Grandma before my parents got there and we were talking to some people that we didn't know. Well the guy knew my Grandpa, but didn't know that he passed away. My Grandma was saying how he only ate meat and potatos and didn't like his food to touch, so she never really experimented with foods and made mostly the same foods each night. Well this lady is like, well at least you don't have to cook only meat and poatoes anymore and she laughed. My Grandma and I just stared at her, like why would you say that? We loved how he would only eat certain things, he kept his southern heritage alive. I mean it stings when my one aunt just tells people so freely and with no emotion, "Oh Carl died like 6 months ago" One it isn't her buisness and two maybe she's not emotional but we still miss him a lot. grr.

I want this car...
Forget the Saturn ION, I want the Dodge Caliber! My favorite part, besides the ipod holder/plugin?

The 2 tone interior color! lol Not like I'll ever get to drive it. I'm the middle child and I have to just deal with it. lol
Nothing too exciting yesterday......YEA RIGHT! My life is a circus, of course something happened. Let's start with the morning...
So I see a whole bunch of ants in my room, so I violently kill them with my shoe making a big racket. So my Dad comes to see what I'm doing and says that I probably have food in my room. I say, uh no. So he throws everything from my floor either on my bed or in the hallway. Finding no food (like I told him) he proceeds to make me get down on my hands and knees and scrub the floor, because maybe I spilled something a long time ago. So I get done with that and go to work. At work nothing too big happened, Meredith might apply to work there. So graduation was last night. I went for my two cousins. During the day when my aunt came over to demand to use our cooler, she inquired as to why we were going. My Dad simply replied, well I have two nephews graduating and I was invited by one of them to come. Oh, she says. So when we get there, my Dad sits down and turns to her and asks, "Oh which child up there is yours?" LOL hahaha idiot. Why would she ask that? lol Saw Mrs. LaRosa, her daughter is going to State so I was telling her about the different dorms. She wants her to be in Synder/Philips, I didn't want to tell her that it was probably full. I told her, do not write Brody or Hubbard/Akers. lol
So yea...
Today I work, tomorrow is devoted to shopping with 2 paychecks ready to be spent and getting my hair cut, finally. I'm assuing a family dinner is in order, seeing as my family is coming in from WI. Should be fun........maybe.

And you all just think I'm paranoid...
Ok how do you explain today's paper? A house on the 1700 block of Morris was reported to have someone open their window and grope their daughter with an attmept to abduct her. Right here in Lincoln Park. Granted I have no clue where Morris is, that's not the point.
So I was on register yesterday, well register 2. So I only went on if we were busy, which we were and I did. I feel all important with my vast collection of keys to all sorts of drawers. lol I like seeing my name on the reciept. haha It says "LISM" that's my username I guess. lol HAHA So we have this thing that if you buy a coffee/soft drink and keep the reciept, you get free refills all day at any of the resturants in the village/museum. So these two old ladies come through with 2 coffees and 2 muffins. She just keeps walking and I ask if she needs to pay. She informs me that she has already paid for the coffee, I was like yea but what about the muffins? She also said she had already paid for them.....So I was like so why were you in line? I thought maybe she did pay for them in the other line, but my first thought was, "Lady, the free refills doesn't apply to everything on the menu!" lol We'd go out of business. lol
We went out test driving new cars yesterday, so far we like the Saturn ION, the Colbart (whoa what that spelling doesn't look right...), the Volkswagon Rabbit (Which I don't know what it looks like). Today my parents are going to 3 more dealerships. I got to drive the ION, it drives nice, but if and when we ever get one, I'll probably never get to drive it. It's called being a middle child. lol Next year Meredith graudates from high school and she'll need a car for college and Laura graduates from college and she'll need a car. So I don't get anything and will have to have my little sister pick me up from college anytime I want to go home. Great. I argued that I was older and my Dad said...so....does that make a difference? YES it does! lol Maybe it'll turn out like the Chicken Soup for the Soul stories (which I LOVE btw lol I'm a dork) which they surprise the middle child with something nice after neglecting them for so long. lol haha Wishful thinking. I have Friday and Saturday off! What sweet days to have off! I'm getting my hair cut on Friday and Saturday I have 2 grad parties, a dance rectial (which I'm not going too lol) and my cousin from WI is coming to visit. Whew busy day...

I went to Hell and back!
So I drove to see Ashleigh and Chris. I did pretty well, I must say. I got quite burned on the boat even though I stayed under teh canopy and had on two kinds of sunblock. We ate at Zukey Lake Tavern and parked the boat at the resturant. Then we went to Dairy Queen before it stormed. lol Then Ashleigh had to go to work and I hung out with Chris. We drove to Hell and walked through an art fair with tye-dyed shirts. We had dinner at his house and then had to go back to get my car. Eek, 94 east was closed. I screamed quite loudly in my car, it would have been funny to see, since I also stopped in the middle of US-23. lol But I made it home and saw my Dad walking down Fort Street, so I picked him up. lol Now I'm home. The breeze from my window feels heavenly but as we all know I sleep with them closed.....always. lol
