Today I took my last final and I am so glad they are over. I have a week until summer school starts to do whatever. I have some new goals for this summer. First, I am going to clean this house inside out this week. I am tired of it looking like hurricane Kelley came through. Also, I am going to ride my bike every day as soon as I get out of school for at least twenty minutes. I have been gaining some serious weight recently, and I am really not happy with the way I look.
Today has been an overall excellent day. I feel good about the paper I turned in for finals today, and I got to mow the lawn (I love mowing the lawn-I’m a freak). Also, tonight Kelley is going to teach about the motorcycle and how it works and stuff. I think this will be kind of fun and good for us. He has been begging to let him teach me about it because he wants me to be interested in something he is also interested in, I just havn’t had the time because of finals. Then, at three I am going to go pick up a check from the alumni foundation at school for a scholarship. Not only is my entire year for next year paid for by scholarships, but I am pretty sure that my summer school is also. Before I received the spanish and english award at school (which added up to be around $2250), I already had five hundred dollars over for next year. It is really nice that my hard work is actually paying off for once.
Yesterday I got really upset because I am having some serious issues trying to solve my car problem (it is getting repossessed) and I am just sick and tired of being poor. I asked KC if he thought that I should quit school for a while so that I could get my financial stuff in control, but he told me that I was being silly and that I should just go ahead and do my schooling now so that when I am done I will be making a good amount of money and not struggling. I am really glad that he is always there trying to make me feel better and support me. I would seriously be lost without him. I just feel like no matter how hard I work, nothing pays off. I work my ass off at the pizza joint but i still havn’t received a raise in nearly two years and no matter how much I work, i just can’t save up the money I need for a car. Every time I get close to having a substancial amount of money at hand, something comes up that empties my bank acount.
Oh well. I guess I will just have to keep trying and pray that school really pays off.
