I'm surprised that I still have a job...

I don't know why the Henry Ford employs me. I'm probably the clumsiest employee that they have! lol Today I mistook crisco for window cleaner...The bottles are almost identical...Why wasn't the glass getting clean? ha Then I spilled gravy into the water wells. But I have fun, I make sure of it! I've decided that I need to go and order food so that I can actaully taste it. Customers ask my opinion and I hate to respond with, "Well this is Greenfield Village and they don't allow their employees to eat anything from the resturant, so no I haven't tried anything here except for the hot dogs, which I have eaten everyday since last April." But I do enjoy a good hotdog, any coney island is a great place for me! :)

Did I hear you right....10,000?!

So today they inform us that tomorrow there are 10,000 school kids scheduled to come to the village!!!!! OMG What other work has that many customers? Plus the regular visitors. Since they told us that, a lot of people are randomly calling off tomorrow. lol I really want to see Knocked Up. It looks good. Also theres another movie, called Once, its like a modern Irish musical, the trailer looks SO good. lol I smell peanut butter. It was so hot today, like 85 outside and the counter was around 150 for the food, I sweated a lot. There was this foreign lady who had, I guess it was 3, her 3 year old and it wasn't wearing a shirt. The lady put it on the counter so this shirtless kid just stared at me. I was WTF? put some clothes on your kid. Laura is leaving for Tennessee tomorrow morning. For a week. Too bad I work, like everyday, otherwise I could enjoy being home by myself. ha I listened to a tape in my Grandma's car today. but theres no play button, so when I would fast foward or rewind i would just keep going or stop, so I would have to eject it and start it over, while driving on Southfield. lol One of the buttons fell off, lol I think it was the fast foward. lol

Just Kidding

I'm a rere, I didn't go to Jackson, I went to Monroe this weekend. Jackson, well Chelsea is next weekend. My bad. Ahh So Ashleigh and Chris' old band director went golfing with my old director! Mine probably beat theres, but hey let's not gloat. Is that how you spell it? I think that's the first time I've ever typed that word before. haha This week is just another week of work, nothing exciting. ::sighs:: Nothing exciting ever happens, I do the same things everyday. My city is getting crummier by the day and it makes me not want to live here. So I think when I finally graduate, get married and have a family, I don't want to live in LP, unless they clean this city up. Wow that was a long run-on sentence. But I like Downriver, I mean I LOVE Wyandotte, with a passion. We were supposed to move there when I was little, but instead we ended up moving from Moran to New York, in the same city. I think its a curse, both of my parent's grew up here and didn't move away. As with the rest of my family. I have to get out. I think I still like Michigan, unless I make it big and want to move to NY or Cali. hmm I'll just have to wait and see what my life has in store for me.

lalala It's the weekend

So I was going to change this up a bit, but then I looked at it and decided I like the way it looks. So there. haha

I might go to my high school band's band camp at Blue Lake, uber excited. Because we all know I won't get into the MSU marching band lol I mean theres only 4 spots open and I'm almost positive there is more than 4 music majors who automatically get in, so I might not even audition. The last weekend of band camp is the last day to move in, so I might have to figure that out. I don't have to work Memorial Day Weekend!!!!!! I think I have to work Memorial Day because it is a Monday, but I'm not sure since I am still not on the schedule yet this will be my third week back to work. This weekend I'm going to Jackson or close to it with some of my family. I'm going to Monroe for Memorial Day weekend, now that I'm not working. I discovered a new kind of cereal that I just adore. Its one of the Special K and its like vanilla almond and its GOOD! lol I get paid next week! yay!

Monday Monday

I bussed today at work, not fun. At least Mike was there because the other busser was sorta bossy. I learned how to refill the pop dispenser thing, not as hard as I thought. lol It took two of us to figure it out. So I guess my Wisconsin family is coming around the 9th of June for Phil's grad party. Should be interesting. I won't get paid for another two weeks. At least it will be one big check. Hmm let's see...$6.95 times 5 hours=34.75 for a day, times 5 days a week=173.75 a week and if I get paid for 3 weeks I should get around...$521.25 before taxes. Yippie! For as much as I complain about work, I do get some good money. Well I would get more if I got paid more than minimal wage. I think its because I work a lot of days.

Mommy's Day

Tomorrow is Mother's Day, I got my mom a MSU mom t-shirt that she wanted a while back and made her a cute card. On the front it says, The hand I'll always hold, the love I'll always love. So cute! :) She'll cry. My internet was out for most of the day. I watched more sweet Law and Orders today. lol Tuesday's episode looks good! :)

Oh so Wednesday is starting to sound like a grand day! yippiee! I have so many places to show you livington countiers (if thats a word...) like today next to the 99cent carpet store, there looks to be a semi truck that someone is living in...sorta like the ghetto box car kids. I love Lincoln Park...Then some village time with their overpriced food. lol Golly I wished I had gotten paid this week. I still need to pay for my half of the futon, which I haven't forgot about lol. Maybe we'll go to the Chinese place on the corner of Dix and Breast. hahahaha

Will this ever end?

So first I check my grades.....passed math, sweet! So then I casually scroll down.......Economics.....1.0.....wait, what scroll back up.........1.0......That can't be right. So I get all huffy and add up my grade and find that I should have at least a 2.5 So I email about everyone at MSU. Now let me explain about this class. 15 points a week, 12 for the weekly quizzes and 3 for the problem set (which you get for just turning it in), so the syallbus states that our grades will be emailed to us weekly. So each week I get the email from the scantron (but half of the quiz is written so I assume that I have some extra points) The top says something raw score. But the bottom would always say like raw score 10, so I thought with my added 3 points, well 13 out of 15 isn't bad. So I conitune on through the semester thinking that I'm really cool.


Apparently I was failing and didn't even have a clue....

That something raw score was my quiz grade, and that 10 was for the entire week, including my problem set!!!!!! I felt like an idiot and now I have to retake the class. My overall GPA is like a 2.7 and I'm pissed. I was trying to explain to my dad that if I would have known from week one that 10 wasn't a good score that I would have worked on it, but since I thought I was doing well.....

college sucks. Like whoa. I hope it gets better...

and to make matters worse, I'm on reg tomorrow at work. grr.

Work tomorrow.........oh man lol

Ok so today I did some stuff......yes I did!

*Church-ahhhh Roy sang a solo. He was our old pastor who had two strokes and he's getting better slowly. Singing has helped his progress. Only person under the age of 50 in the choir was me. lol But they had Krispy Kreme donuts. OMG I haven't had those in so long! I might volunteer to feed the people at the Mission Hope Church. (ie an abandoned building that some homeless people turned into a church near ours, we've sorta adopted it and feed them everyday. Like a soup kitchen.) Not sure yet.

*Downloaded/uploaded A LOT of Stevie Wonder and the Beatles. :)

*Mowed the grass. LOL Might seem harmless but I have a huge yard and a riding mower. It goes fast.......I cut those corners. I wish someone could have taped me. lol I got grass in my nose.

*Since my little sister is being a beotch and won't give up the car. (She made a fuss when I walked up to the school on Friday so I could drive to my work to fill out paperwork and then drove back to pick her up from school.) Hello, its not her car, we all had turns when the other would come home and you have to give the car up. Well anyways, my older sister has to drive me to work. great.

* My sister bought Guitar Hero=you will all come to my house to play ;)

*Band concert this Thursday at 7 :)

*Speaking of work, I just went back because Katie is there and she got transferred to the custard shop. poo. Well now I can get some custard. lol

Freshmen year of marching band.....not a good hair year I must say. lol So its summer and I have many band related activities lined up! Alumni band is playing at the spring concert! Yay for some contra time! N*Stink is the week after (a benefit concert for my drama teacher who passed away) and my friend is starting a percussion group that will practice over the summer and perform in the fall. Should be fun!



Yes you are all jealous that my dorms are beautiful! This would be North Campbell hall. It's purdy :)

Wanna take a stroll?

...down memory lane? Why sure! :)

August 28-Move in day. Laura and I got me all settled in, in my first dorm room of my college career. Now we couldn't fit everything of ours, we are girls with a lot of stuff, so my parents were coming up later with the rest and maybe some dinner. Around 7pm I wondered where they were, I was getting hungry. I soon lost my appetite. My Dad informed me that on their way here, my Grandpa had passed away. I felt bad because I knew my mom wanted to be with him and because of us she was on the road instead of being with him. The next day I went to the pep rally thing with Chris and Sarah. It was raining. lol So I packed up all of my things and Laura and I headed back home. We didn't return until Monday night. I missed my first day of college classes. I emailed my teachers, one of my teachers sent me a nasty letter. Fuck her. I cried myself to sleep most weekends, for that was at the time when Miss Wilcox would go home every 2 seconds. I just kept thinking about how I would never see him again. I was his sugar. I was the closet to him. Every holiday since my birth, I have sat in the chair next to him. Every one. So this year I dreaded going home for holidays.

September-Went home for homecoming. Got my first alumni band experience. Laura and my Dad's birthdays.

October-Middle of teh semester. By this time I would have probably written about 7 papers for WRA. Insane, I know. Every Tuesday and Thursday I had lunch with Sarah. I of course spent every other evening with Ashleigh and Chris. lol Sarah doesn't hate me anymore. I think her sister still does, but thats later on in this saga.

November- Thanksgiving. OH God. I was not ready for this, the pain I felt. It was still too soon.

December-My first taste of college finals. I had two on Monday (WRA and math) and my easiest on Thursday. So a nice week of leisure time. Ahh Christmas break. I avoided Taste AT ALL COSTS! lol Then it closed and I was like, whew! haha Spent some time with Katie. Didn't do a whole lot....hmm did my family come visit? Oh yes they did. So every night we had huge family dinners. If you know my family, you know that my mom and me were only there for the laughs. Try feeding 23 people for 6 days. Yay, that's what I thought.

January- Spent New Year's with Katie. Guitar Hero is pretty much the sweetest game ever. lol I'm a closet rockstar. New semester, equipped with new classes. I believe Buffalo Wild Wings was our first dinner of the new semester. Of course. I learned the fine art of racquetball and forced un-suspecting people to play with me. (*What a fun activity for the summer....lol Idea!*) lol

March-Went by really quickly! Spring Break! Arizona and California to visit old people! I had sushi and it was wonderful. Thanks Karl! Went to Paramount Studios, climbed a couple of mountains. You know, the usually Mixter adventure.

April-My birthday! 19! and Katie's birthday....who I still need to get a present for....I noticed being up here that I have become a little clueless when it comes to remembering dates. Like how I forgot to mail the postcards and her birthday card, even though they were on my desk the entire time. lol

May-Is right now! School ends for me in 4 hours! Spent most of my time with my soon to be roomie Ashleigh. lol She's probably so sick of me! LOL I do that to people. Oh we also picked a new member in our posse, Brian. Who I am not mad at, for the record. haha We are going to buy nails from him at Home Depot. We shall have more Wii parties next year with his roommate's gf and her vag.

I have done so much this year, I really have changed. ha I have friends now. Ones who miss you when you're gone. Oh my pod's charged. lol

hahaha I can't study anymore because I sold back my book and got screwed once again. God dang it, the website said I would get 13 dollars, and guess how much I got? .....guess....guess...................................$1. ha So I owe people money, so they should be watching in the mail for it soon. I won't forget. It would be really nice if I got paid next week, but I don't know what the pay schedule is yet.

Oh tomorrow, I'm going to see my old band director! I'll ask him if him and Sutton were besties :)
