| Ok, here's the new blog address: www.zipzlostit.blogspot.com
Blogspot is just so much better. Sorry Xanga. But anyone can post and it's just so much better to use. | | |
| Hey everyone, so if you haven't notice... I've sort of stopped posting,
haha. If you want my new blog address, let me know. You can even leave
a comment here if you want.

| Welllllll, Tuesday was Bebe's birthday!!! So we all ended up going to
Chucky Cheese instead of our traditional bowling! But it was still
awesome, hehe. Even more awesome because we all got to celebrate
bebepru's birthday! And Bebe, I love you... who goes to Chucky Cheese
for their 21st birthday?! I'm going to have to show you up by going for
like bumper cars or something, haha.
Yesterday, I turned in all my CU enrollment stuff and financial aid
stuff so now I'm officially a CU student, crazinessss, no?
Unfortunately I don't think I have orientation til mid-August though
which could kind of such for registering for classes and being able to
tell job-peeps when I can work during the school year.
I'm kind of thinking of giving up though, on the whole job search
thing, in general though, til school starts. It starting to seem like
it's not worth it at the moment. I mean, I'll still try to get the jobs
I've already applied and interviewed for and such, especially the ambo
co. job but.... I mean, I don't know when I'll be in class yet and
maybe I can find a job on campus... or something I can work at and do
homework at the same time... but I can't apply or even look for campus
jobs until I get squared away as being a student, haha. Hopefully I'll
be able to log on to student services stuff soon so I can start looking
there. I need to talk to my rents though... explain where I'm coming
from. I mean, I really want to go to Glorieta (which is a Chrisitan
Camp/Conference type thing down in New Mexico--and it's like the first
week of August so that kind of cuts into job searching stuff, etc). And
that's super soon; and then Amber and I can move into our new apartment
starting on the 8th which is actually during Glorieta. And then my
birthday is the 10th and I kind of want to have people over to the new
place for like an end of summer party type thing. And then the 11th, I
want to take a group down to Elitche's because it's Christian Youth Day
down there and there'll be lots of bands and such. And classes start on
the 22nd this year so there isn't much time between that stuff and
class... so I just feel like it's not worth it to work all that hard at
finding a job except for a job that I can work at part time for the
school year, ya know? Sigh... and then I've got to find a car somewhere
in there, and that takes quite a bit of time and effort. Not to mention
how many books I need to read and want to read for my sanity's sake.
Haha. I just kind of want to be able to enjoy the rest of my busy
summer without having to worry about my parents and jobs and stuff.
I'll have to talk to them tonight about that. We're having family
dinner with the boys... JP (jotabauer) is leaving me early next week!!!
Grrrrr... hahaha. See! Another thing that I'll be busy with this
weekend! I want to see my brat of a brother before he leaves because
I've just been told he's no coming back before school in the fall after
that!!!
So much to do, so little time, haha. And yet soooo lazy... hahaha. Darn.

| Ok, so that last entry was looong. Sorry about that. And George, you soooo read it. I know you. So don't even try.
Yesterday, I had a couple interviews and then it rained... so no
volleyball. It was record High's last week and this week it's like
record low's!!! What's the deal? Haha, but it's supposed to be nice
tomorrow, so that's good. As far as today, so far I've been lazy, haha.
My sleep cycle is all out of wack which isn't good. I need to work on
that and eating better but anywho. Gonna go drop off CU enrollment
forms and crud and hopefully sign up for an orientation session so I
can finally register for some classes... it'd be helpful to know what
hours I can work for interviews etc...
I finally decided to turn down the tech job at University Hospital down
in Denver. I just decided I didn't want to drive that far to work that
many hours my first semester back. But he'd said I could have it next
summer/spring if I wanted. Which is awesome.
Tonight, I'm hoping to get people together for our traditional $1
bowling night... I should probably get on that... need to call people,
haha. And this time we are definitely reserving lanes ahead of time...
so people can get to bed for work the next morning, hehe, silly people
who have jobs. I mean, er...
Well, I've pretty much decided on the RSX-type S or an Integra GS-R
instead of an SUV. Just couldn't do it... I want my baby!!! I need to
make a couple phone calls about Ads in the newspaper. Wahoo... Haha, I
want it sooooon. Plus, I can't have Ruby ('83 Accord) at the new
apartment. It's an "eyesore" and I signed my lease that said I couldn't
have it. Hahahahaha. Ok, yea, off to get some shiznat done.

| Well, things certainly have been interesting this week. I've definitely
kept busy. I feel like this week has gone by super fast. The beginning
definitely started out cruddy... you do something you think is right
and feel good about and then people turn it against you and make you
feel like crap. Sigh... definitely made me feel like a person I don't
ever want to be or like being. But the end of this week has made me
realize that since I'm kind of starting anew... sort of... that I can
be the person I want again. It's weird... do you ever feel stuck in who
people think you are? Like in high school, I never dressed up or wore
skirts because I knew people would ask me why... because I didn't do
that generally... and people think it's weird when you say "just
because." It's like you have to have a reason... well, that's one
little superficial example but yea, maybe you understand or maybe you
don't. It's just I have this person I love being... the person I am at
work and around strangers. But it's hard to bring out that person when
others are convinced you are this other person. It's like... oh
goodness, I know this is going to be a horrible similie because it's
late and I actually haven't spent enough thinking about this.... like
I'm literally thinking as I'm typing... but here we go anywho... it's
like being a young teenager and being profiled as a shoplifter; and you
walk around the store and find something you think you might want, so
you put it under your arm before you continue looking around; but the
manager thinks you are trying to hide it to steal it... so when the
manager approaches you and confronts you, instead of saying you were
just looking and thinking of purchasing it. You throw it down and run
from the store, "knowing" that they won't believe you and will call the
cops. Does that make any sense? No? Didn't think so... Well, when I
went to Hopkins, I felt like I had a clean slate... a new chance... and
I did, and it was wonderful. And for a while, I really was someone I
liked. Things changed of course but not exactly by my design... so I
figure that was my trial period. Haha. But then I came back here, to
some of my same friends... and no offense guys, but a few of you make
me feel trapped. I mean, people change. I'm sure you all changed... but
you assume that I haven't... why? I just don't get it.
Well anyway, I've applied for a lot of different positions at a lot of
different places and have a heck of a lot of interviews now. Next week
could be nuts. I know I'd been focusing on this tech job (that is
almost undoubtably mine if I want it--the tech supervisor really likes
me) but I really want this job with the ambulance company AMR if they
can work with my schedule. The shifts are 24hrs though and they run a
modified kelly-shift (if you're in EMS/Fire, you should know what that
means... MARY! Haha, jk). But hopefully they'll work with me... they
seem pretty chill and flexible though which is awesome. If they are as
flexible as I feel they are, I may even be able to work full time
during school which is crazzzzy. Yay for work that allows sleeping and
working on school work, haha. I talked to one of the medics for a good
20 minutes or a half hour and he showed me around base ops a little. He
was pretty awesome and seemed to think I'd fit in well, haha. If I
can't do that though, I still think I might prefer working in Boulder
at like Barnes & Noble over University Hospital in Denver... though
that really would be good for my field of interest and for references
and for med-school/nursing school stuff.... hmmm... I dunno, guess
we'll see. But yea.... I've got an interview already set up for Barnes
& Noble, University Hospital, and a couple others... and I'm
supposed to be hearing from AMR and Starbucks soon (haha, starbucks...
love it... I can become even more addicted to coffee).
Ummm... I haven't gotten a chance to make much progress in Harry Potter
though... I'm only on page 250... and multiple people are starting to
get impatient with me, haha. Seems they have stuff they need to talk
about. Love it. But I've been busy!!! Gardening, Applications, Job
Searching, Socializing... Tuesday night a huge group of challengers
went out for 35cent wings before $1 bowling; yay for being poor college
students, haha. 'Twas fun. Also did a little furniture searching for
the apartment... gotta beat all the returning students to the good
stuff, haha. Ahhh, can't wait for the garage sales this weekend. This
evening, I went to see Bewitched with the rents early on, which was
cute. Though entirely implausible... guys don't change that much. Well,
I suppose people in general don't change much. So girls... I'm going to
give you some advice that my mother gave me and that I've relearned
myself and that I've learned from observing my cousin... you cannot
change a guy. Do not think that you can help them; they can only change
themselves. If a guy treats you like crap before he loves you, he'll
still treat you like crap if/when he loves you. My mom calls them
"projects." I don't recommend it.
Yea, anyway.... I'm definitely ready for this week to be over. Started
the week, being treated as a person that I hate being and trying to end
the week being me... ok, ready for the new poll? Try to get off the
drugs or stay on them? If you don't know what I'm talking about, please
don't comment, hahaha.
