Back to “my summer so far.”
May 23rd, 2007 by Ali
Just so you know, that Rosie Thomas album has risen at least a $1 in price since I last checked a few hours ago. Go get it if you know what’s good for you! Plus, geez, it’s still cheap at less than $4. I’d buy it right now… if I hadn’t left my debit card in a bag at home. Boo-hoo.
Back to that subject of 20 class hours needed to graduate…
I have decided to take summer classes. At first, I didn’t want to. I had never had to take them before, and before, I thought only sad people took them. Well, I am a sad person, and I need some classes. Also, I didn’t want to have to pay. Lucky for my father, he’s only had to pay for housing since I’ve been at UCF. Now he get to pay! (All right, that’s not fun…) I’m going to have to ask for a parental money loan of $708.40 to take two classes during the Summer B term (astronomy and an intro film course). I feel guilty taking one class that I do not need, but since I only need two more necessary classes, the other 14 hours can be fluff. And they pretty much are. Next semester, I’m taking my last needed soc class, and then four night classes. I get to finish and work all day, yay! (And that’s how I’ll pay off my father.)
Whenever there’s mention of someone doing something wrong at work, I feel instantly horrible and like I want to disappear. This happens even if I didn’t do it. But it could have been me in any other situation, so… either I get over my low self-esteem at work and stop thinking I do everything wrong or… or I do everything perfectly. I shall work on doing everything perfectly. I can’t get hung up on every single thing… or I can, since that’s what I do every minute of every day.
New Smyrna Beach = really good for sunburns, shuffleboard, and seagulls.
When I was at Target today, I saw knock-offs of Knock Knock merch. Made me kind of sad, although I would buy the Target brand because it is cheaper. They even had two kinds of the self-mailers. I love self-mailers! (I love mail.) I wanted to do self-mailers for the save-the-dates (for that wedding, yadda-yadda-yadda), but I think I’m going to do MooNotes! Well, maybe… especially if the price is cheaper soon. I have a $200 budget for those. Already, those are overbudget. So sad.
I was really peeved that my dad rescheduled Anika’s baptismal. I did, however, get to “talk” to her. (Code for Anika being handed the phone and Ali listening to silence.) I’ll see her on her real baptismal date, July 1. This means I must go on that “ultimate American road trip” I had been dreaming about since April soon.
I’ve forgotten whatever else I was going to blog about. Oh, well. Farewell. (Summer is going well.)
