Yes, another update already. Don't be too surprised, something just happened today and there's something I have to say. I also want to stress that I don't want ANYTHING REPEATED. Everything I put here, I am putting here because all my friends are on Skype. And all my family is on facebook. I'm not putting this on facebook for a reason.
First off, I was sitting in my bed at about 6pm and I heard a noise. After investigating and looking where my kitty was looking, I saw a small hole in my window. There are pics. I did NOT put them on facebook, ask me and I can send them to you. Either on Skype or I have a really nice one on my phone.
Anyway, it looks like a bb gun was shot at the house. There's leaves in the way, so they probably weren't paying attention like idiots. But I mean, really. Come on. That's just STUPID.
I don't want to keep re-telling the story, so read it here. And I remind you to not repeat this.
THIS PART, I REALLY DON'T WANT REPEATED. Ms. Jacqueline Brown and Ms. Kate Harris (Yes, I just used your 'in trouble' names) I don't want this second part repeated. You may talk to me about it. You may NOT tell the family or your boyfriends. If they are there, make them not look. (That's mostly for my sister)
I've come to a conclusion, a big decision. I won't tell the family on facebook until AFTER I come back to Florida. It's a big thing for me, probably not overall.
Within the next 10 years of my life, I want to accomplish something. Before I am 30, I want to save up money and spend a month's time in Ireland and England. I want to travel, but only to places where I know the language. I want to go to Ireland like many members of my family. I want to see England and enjoy the culture. I want to go to the place where my grandfather lived and see the beauty that is Ireland. I want to meet my friends I've made over the internet in England. I hear my one friend from Australia is moving to England, this is quite the opportunity.
I want to LIVE. My mother told me that she is jealous of what I am doing. Going to Florida to see friends, going on a road trip and living while I had the chance. She got married when she was young and had a kid... My oldest brother, George, she told me she loves that he's enjoying life right now. He's an idiot with some things he's doing, but he's HAVING FUN. She planned on visiting Ireland on her 25th anniversary, which has come and gone just this month...
I don't want to be like that. I want to try and get my parents to Ireland one year, but first, I want to do it for me. I want to and NEED to have fun while I have this chance! We all do! I certainly don't want to go alone, will you come with me?
I mean, think about it. We can see Big Ben, the Blarney Stone, the hills of Ireland, the beautiful waters of the ocean, the streets, the experience... The chance we're given... It'll take YEARS to save up and prepare for this trip. But I want to do it! And it will be so much more fun if I had people with me. If people experienced this with me.
This is a biiiig bomb I'm dropping, I know. But it'll still be a few years. Maybe 6, I'm hoping. When I'm 25, I can go out. That's not too old. I can't wait, this is something I'm completely serious about.
This also means I'll be living in muck. By that, I mean I didn't go to college. I'm still figuring out things I can possibly do. I just feel uneasy about just... PICKING a life time career like that. I don't want to. And that sums up to, I DON'T WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE.
YES, I know I SHOULD go, but... really, I just... So whatever, I want to go to Ireland and England. I mean, I want to go and ENJOY myself. I just want to travel a bit, and I've barely left the state. The US doesn't seem to special to me. But, other countries, other cultures, THAT is what I want to experience. I know I can't be the only one.
I hope some, if any, of this sinks in. If you feel 'yes, I'd love to do that, but-' NO BUTS! Talk to me. Maybe you SHOULD. Just, take the chance while it's being given to you. This is a big commitment. Not like John and I going to Florida, it barely took planning and it was all done within just a few months. This is much bigger. And even if there are stops along the way you want to take, alright. They all don't have to be places I want to go. If you want to go somewhere too, alright! I just want a traveling partner that'll take funny pictures of me and with me at all the different places we'll go. I don't care about anything else.
<3 Sorry for all that ranting... It's just... I'm excited for Florida, you can't imagine how DESPERATELY I want to do this. But I can't go alone, I'll be too nervous, chicken out... If someone else is going, it won't be JUST FOR ME... It'll be for US. And I'll do it.
Love you guys.

Counting Down
22 Days until my birthday. 23 until Florida with John.
Meg was AWESOME and let me use her sewing machine. I made my cookie plushie. And my sign. This is awesome.
Everything is settling down. John and I paid for the hotel and purchased our AFO passes. My uncle gave me 2 addresses that should take him to his house on a GPS. (Apparently it's weird.) My other cousins are 2 hours away from him. Maybe if all is going well, John and I can stop by for a break and get a meal. (They offered.) Better than stopping and eating out. All up to John.
I am SO SUPER EXCITED to see Naro and Steve. Especially Steve. Don't take offense, Naro. I've seen you recently. I haven't seen him in FOREVAR!
I don't know what I should bring besides my DS and some clothes. Yo! Skype me a list of things? Or on Facebook? I'm bringing sunscreen. I WANT to bring Febreeze too!
ALSO, I might have to do laundry down there guys, you mind? And I MOST DEFINITELY will be taking a showah. Crap, I'm gonna need shampoo and conditioner too, huh?
ALSO, I'll help you guys clean up if it's messy in your apartment. AND I wanna bake a cake for me. It WILL be right after my birthday. SPEAKING OF, if all goes well, I should be having a party up here on the 23rd. We'll see.
I'm excited. I mean, I've never been to Florida! Will you guys show me around? Places you hang out? The arcade? Am I gonna meet some of your friends? I wanna knooowwwww!
~346 Days
It's almost been a year! ... Aww, the day I want my party, then it'll be 1 year since they left.

The world is against me
... Babysitting canceled tonight... and for the next 2 weeks.
THAT'S THE $60 PAYING TO FEED ME! D<
And now I have to ask the day before I leave, WHICH IS ALSO MY BIRTHDAY, I REMIND YOU.
That, and if I remind facebook enough, maybe I'll get cards for my birthday. And may be like, $10 if I'm lucky. My family is all broke and junk.
But that's me. I have enough money to pay for gas and the rest should be spending money. That's about $50. I kind of wanted to buy stuff at the con and go to the arcade and junk, but now that's food money. :I Laaaaame. But, I guess as long as I can go, right? Shouldn't complain.
And I wonder how things are going for John? I need to ask him when we're leaving and junk, I figured I'd wait til it got a little closer to the leaving date. We have 36 days.
SPEAKING OF THAT, 36 days and that's all I have hanging out with Crystal. I have some time when I get back from Florida to hang out with Meg.
And don't get me STARTED on my birthday party. I'm inviting friends over and we're just chilling. I'm not gonna drink anything else in my fridge and use the change in my room to put chips and soda, if it's enough. If not, then we're just hanging out and having fun. But it's better than nothing, riiiight guys? :3 Sorry we're incredibly poor in my family. I don't want my parent's paying for everything. They have a lot more to worry about. We have a troll in the basement that has a black whole for a stomach.
BUT DESPITE MONEH TROUBLES, I do have enough for half a yard of fleece. It will be turned into a cookie plushie. Then I need a paint stick and some card stock for an OM NOM NOM sign. These are things I always wanted for my cookie outfit. Since I'm just about there and done with it, why not, right?
And Skies of Orlandia will be a blast. I'm bringing my camera and rechargable batteries and my laptop. My old youtube account is locked up and god knows what the password is. It's nothing I made it as, trust me. :/
OH WELL! I still need to hang out with my NY peeps before chillin' down in the FL. xD I am soooo not black.
Love you lots, thanks for letting me vent. :3

That was the end of that
I called for my hours, and they fired me like that.
I was paranoid this would happen. LUCKILY, I was able to get enough money to STILL JUST go to Florida. I have to write Naro a check and give John $100 for gas. BUT I totally can still go to Florida. And the con in October. AND get my parents something for their anniversary. But it ends there. After that, I'm broke.
BUT! I have already started searching for a new job! I babysit Wednesday nights, so I still get that liiiiittle bit of income. But I need to get out there and apply! Maybe Wednesday, I can get my mom to take me out. We'll see.
I hope I get money for my birthday. And a job soon.
BUT WORRY NOT, I CAN STILL GO! <3 and I can still hang out and such guys. All is well.
NOW! AnimeNEXT 2010 was amazing. We walked in and people took our pictures. It wasn't crowded at all, it being Sunday AND father's day. We met someone and he was hilarious and we're friends with him on dA. Then walked to the other building and sat and read our booklets. Then we walked back to the dealer's room and looked through there. Then we went to the artist alley. I believe at that time, we ate. Then got lost looking for places to eat. It was terrible. xD
We came back and I left to see a dance group as they finished up. Then I went looking for Crystal and Meg. And I found Meg's friend! And we both looked for them and we found them and said hi.
All this, and it was weird Luna was not there. D:
But we hung out, walked around. Met people.
We went back to the artist alley before we left, I got an awesome shirt. <3
And we were heading back out and we were stopped and was talking to people. And Uncle Yo walked in and we cheered. xD
OH, WE SAW BOBBY! HE WAS SVEN FROM BLACK CAT! <3
There was a lot of Pokemon this year, no big surprise really. I got more Phoenix Wright cosplayer pics too.
Overall, we had a blast. DIDN'T WE?! xD And I have 2 more cons this year I already have tickets for!
How fitting. I'll be going to my 10th con in 2010.

Trip to Florida
My dad comes home tomorrow. It'll be good to see him.
I need more stuff to do. Things to motivate me to get me up earlier.
Work is paying alright, getting another paycheck, WHOO!
AnimeNEXT costs shouldn't bump me below $200 and that's with what I have right now! YAY!
I want some posters though, I might get some things this time around at a con. It's 10 days away. I promised Naro I'd buy her a t-shirt. I might just get one for me too. Save money for Florida.
John is saving up money too. We're staying at my uncles in North Carolina going down and coming back. It's about half way. I wish someone else who could drive would come too. It'd be easier on John. I'm gonna see how many driving lessons I can take from now until then, but I still can't drive. xD
I should have about $400-$500 for Florida at this time. It may be more or less, pending. Its how much I was expecting to have but...
$100 towards gas, $200 towards AFO, $100 towards buy foods for Steve and Naro and that's it... xD That'll be all the monies. I don't know how much I really need for AFO, but that's a good guess. Any extra money I get will be for emergencies.
WAIT, I just did the math. If I earn $60 every week until I leave, that's over $400. xD
You know, I don't know how much I'll have. But, when I get back, I can go to work and get a paycheck because we'll leave on a Thursday. So I'll get money when I come back. Not much, I assume. Maybe none at all. We'll see. My paychecks have been averaging $80 a week, but you never know with the hours I'm getting and with babysitting.
The reason I mention this is because I wanted Steve and Naro to get a feel for how I'm saving up my money and how much I'll have.
CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU GUYS!
As for my friends chilling around NY, I want to hang out, really! Just being with you all is enough. Crystal and I hung out the other day and we saw a movie, went to her house and TALKED!... and I fell back in a chair. xD And freaked over a spider.
AND MISS KATE HARRIS, IF YOU ARE READING THIS, YOU CAME UP AND PROMISED TO VISIT ME AND YOU NEVER DID!

He'll always be an ass.
My brother, that is. My dad left this morning and won't be home until Friday night. His new, better paying job doing the same thing he did at his old job made him go down to Connecticut. Honestly, I don't mind for it pays a lot more for the same thing, and his old job gave him no hours and trouble.
However, my mom wasn't feeling good today so I walked downstairs to see how she was feeling and offer to make whatever she had in mind for dinner.
I heard someone head into the kitchen when I went downstairs, so I peeked into the living room. My mom was laying on the couch. So I peeked into the kitchen and found out my brother was home. He left at lunch time and I didn't know he was here. So I went into the living room again with the intention of checking up on my mom and I hear "what the hell?" I look at my brother and explain why I just left the kitchen. He said "No, you saw I was in here and changed you mind." I started to explain again and said "Nevermind, you're just not worth it." Honestly, he's NOT. And then he said something else and my mom got upset.
Seriously?! HE NEVER SHOWS HIMSELF AROUND THE HOUSE BECAUSE HE'S AFRAID OF MY DAD. HE LEAVES FOR 1 DAY AND HE'S ALREADY BEING A HUGE... #O*%@$(%y$htiwuegkns GAH I HATE HIM SO MUCH! Really, he can't be mature for 5 minutes?!
So I went upstairs and I heard my mom call for me, but I ignored it, I would have said something I would have regretted. He needs to grow the HELL UP. HE'S 22!
Well, this will be a looooooong week.
Tomorrow, I get to hang out with Crystal at the movies. Maybe I can get her lunch afterwards. THEN I work and babysit (Maybe, they cancel all the time...) Wednesday. I need to re-apply to Shoprite. And Thursday I'm hanging out with Mike a little. Meg seems upset and not in the mood to hang out, so I haven't seen her in a while. :I
I was going to do something today, but no matter how many times I put up "PLEASE, I AM DYING OF BOREDOM, I WANT TO BE MORE ACTIVE AND BE HEALTHIER THAN THIS, HANG OUT WITH ME!" on facebook, I am ignored. So, I guess that's it. I'm gonna be bored all week.

Job Hunting
Yup.
I've been working at BK a month. My manager has hung up on me 2 times in 1 day when I was trying to get my schedule, told me she might fire me, informed me I needed to work faster and then gives me no days, and has called me in last minute.
But today, I asked if I could ask her something. She said hold on, put the phone down, took someone's order and walked away.
>_< I WANTED OFF IN 2 WEEKS, TODAY IS THE LAST DAY I CAN ASK, I FORGOT UNTIL NOW!
So, I'm not going to work and will call in if I have to work. Forget it, Meg and I are going with Crystal to her first con, no matter what. D<
I'm trying Shoprite again. And all the old places I applied to. :/ I'll find something, right? Maybe. I'll stick with BK to keep getting money, but that's it.
