not even gonna go there

I refuse to say anything about star wars, other than to say that the highlight of my day (wednesday); the highlight of my month and week, were ruined by a film i was certain coming from Lucas, would have been better.

that said, things have finally leveled out at work. i think i'm (maybe) starting to earn respect because i show up early, do my work, don't whine abotu customers, do my best to please customers and haven't had any things voided, taking off the check, etc. even the manager who seemed bent on destorying my credibility is nicer, and even apreciates the fact that i am trying to avoid confrontation. maybe he's playing me like a sucker, but it's nice to know i don't have to avoid working with him for the time being.

by no means is this an indication that i'm not going to try to get out. i might even keep the job- working a few days a week for extra cash when i get a full time job. (like many other members of ledos) something tells me that i'll not be moving up any time soon, even though the newest manager quit. i'm simply too young in their minds is all i can figure.

school... i just spent more money on school! i cannot understand why an offical transcript cost ME anything. i'm not the one who wants it, the college does. i think they should pay for it!

speaking of school, the semester is finally over.. and as far as i can tell, i definately have two A's. the arabic class, it's borderline. it coudl be an A, or it could be a B. i hope he takes pity on me, and gives me an A, that way my GPA doesn't drift below 3.5 (again) i had it up to 3.67, until i screwed it up with chem last semester dropping it to 3.61.

that leaves me with an open summer, since i refuse to take summer classes (i'm a college gradjewit after all!) and i've begun making a list of the things that i want to have done, etc. by the end of this summer. i have really high expectations; now that i'm over that whole legal age buisiness, i can do a whole lot more with my summer.

  • clean room
  • nano-- i need 200k words by the end of the month of august
  • daily updates to this blog thing
  • get a car
  • possibly move out
  • get another job
  • learn to drink tea and not soda
  • undone projects i want to finish
  • get into shape/ eat healthier
  • learn to get up early
  • learn html
it's nowhere near comprehensive, they are in no particular order, and have no priorety on them (yet). plus i get to do all that in between working full time at the pizza joint, and these apprent trips i'm going on. i need a digital camera and a laptop so i can log my travels this year. it shall be interesting to say the least.
