so its been a month pretty much...

work still is work, this is the last full month of it before i go to reduced hours for college, when im actually picking up another job as a biology lab assistant.  I think im gonna like doing that, plus it will look good when i try to get into med school in a few years.

things are goin pretty good...nothin to complain about really...

this friday the descent comes out...im pretty pumped to see that, and then next monday, schedule permitting im gonna go see talladega nights with reed and tom, and maybe even tilton, so it should be a good time...

PEACE

as i said...back to the real life

the real life did not take its time to suck me back in...

I got home from myrtle last sunday...I called cracker barrel, the manager told me to come in and work monday and she would have a schedule made up for me. It consisted of this: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday...not bad i say to myslef, i get back from vacation and get 5 days...then thursday rolled around when i got my schedule for this coming week...it went Saturday, Sunday, Monday (11hr shift), Tuesday, Wednesday, and i finally get a day off on thursday...so for those who didnt count each day, thats 10 days in a row of work...granted theyre not all 8 hour days, but damnit i just got back from vacation! hahaa, but yknow i need the money, and i have still had some time to have fun...

so the moral of the story is DONT TELL YOUR MANAGERS TO WORK THE PISS OUT OF YOU AFTER YOU GET BACK FROM VACATION BECAUSE THEY WILL!

its ok tho, im just working towards my next vacation(s) and a full face helment for the motorcycle...

PEACE

Myrtle Beach...Gorgeous

all the people i met and partied with the night we got kicked out...great

my 7 best friends who i have been with since we were all 5...we made some memories that are never going to die

i really dont have the time to tell you half of what went on in the past two weeks....they have been the best 15 consecutive days of my life, and they will be hard to top..

time to get back to the real life tho...

PEACE

im going to leave you with a picture of The Rock, a rock, about 45 feet off the water

sitting here i think...

my first three years of highschool were wished away.

i couldnt have been happier to call myself  a senior.

last summer went almost too fast to enjoy.

i ENJOYED three-a-days for football...i LOVED everyone on the team...I got to be a part of the team to BEAT SHERIDAN. At the end, tears of sadness were shed because that was the end of something that, to many of us, was something more important than anything else in our lives.  And it was ripped away.

the basketball season, i attended EVERY game, so many memoires. 2-0 youre our hero, TJ all the way.

after that senioritis set in...it was so great to blow everything off and STILL make the honor roll...the COURT CASE was a bitch that beat the hell out of me at the beginning, but in the end i still wanted more...

when i introduced the valedictorians saturday is when it really hit me...70% of the people i was standing in front of, i will most likely never see again after this summer...Is that good? hell no its not, even if i didnt really care for a person, i still liked to know how they were and everything.  Juking people in the hallway is done, if i do that in college ill prolly get the crap kicked out of me.  Im going to miss wandering around aimlessly with someone just because we dont feel like sitting in a study hall...    all of that was rushing thru my head as i began to speak...

the beauty of this is, the moment i grabbed ahold of my diploma, and shook the mans hand, a wave of pride rushed over me, knowing that i had finished what i had set out to do.

Now that part of my life is over, time to celebrate for a bit, then prepare for the next part of my life...

to everyone that was a part of my high school career, i love all of you, even if i didnt talk to you much, didnt like you, wasnt as popular as you, didnt party as much as you, wasnt liked by you b.c of something, orrrr anything else, THANK YOU for the memories that i have to look back on, good or bad, all will be remembered with the same smile as if i was rembering my first day walking in as a freshman.

i got to myrtle in 10 days

i doubt ill update before that

i will leave you with this...3 AM, pulled off in 5 minutes, in front of the main entrance to the high school

Roger Bates...the definition of muskie pride, retried this year....and myself and a few others felt something had to be done in his name...so why not a 1500lb haybale in front of the doors to school

PEACE

ok....to the people who responded to my last post...a good mix of opinons/remarks...im not going to lie, i actually enjoyed reading the comments from michelle, molly, nina (im bolding the names just for you), jessi, and joyce...you all reacted exactly the way i expected, michelle read them, told molly, and then it all spread from there...sticks and stones baby.  I used no derogatory words towards anyone, and in return i get called immature, a HUGE fool, and have been told to grow up by three people, one of which uses the OmG Im So CoOl I hAvE tO tYpE lIkE tHiS oN mY sItE stuff...oh well, i said what needed to be said, only depicted what actually happend (depicted means described) annnd ill go ahead and take the trouble out of your hands "Joey, youre immature, youre a huge fool, grow up"

ANNNNYWAYS

I have 4 days of school left...im pumped/scared/ready for it...i have 8 more years to look forward to after this, and 7 of those years are going to spent at Ohio University, which i visited on wednesday...and i loved it...absolutely loved it, i honestly wish i would have visited before the deadline came up so i could go down next year...but the OUZ is going to help me stay outta debt for the first year, plus i dont want to leave the people that are still going to be around here just yet...

tonight i went and watched silent hill, that movie was really good...i think...im honestly really lost, i have an idea of what might have happened, BUT i dont want to be the one that says something so off the wall that even more people think im immature...i want to go see it again, maybe ill figure something out.

after that, i met up with tom at taco bell, hung out and talked there for like an hour...he talked about how different and lost he is feeling now that baseball is over...i talked about how i had no point to life when football was done, we talked about the last moments in our careers, came REALLY close to tears, but we didnt cry...

I graduate from highschool in 14 days

I go to myrtle beach in 27 days

i have finally begun my training as a waitor at cracker barrel, after one year of asking, i finally got it...i almost dumped orange soda on a little girl, but i caught the bottle before it hit her in the face...other than that i think i did really well, and im hoping to be on my own really soon...
