Today I started my new job as a barista. Wow, that sounds so cool. I am pretty excited about it even though I don't get paid that much.  I am finally working and I definitely need the money.

Here is what my schedule will look like every week:

3:30 am- get up and shower

4:15-10:30 am- work at the coffee shop

10:30- 12:30- go to the gym (hopefully)

12:30-1:30- nap if super tired (which will be everyday!)

1:30- 6:00- go to various homes to tutor kids (this has not started yet and will mostly be on Tues. and Thurs)

6:00-10:00- visit with Steve or just stay at home with the folks (i think there will be more time with the fam than with Steve because of my early schedule)

I like the coffee shop but getting up at 3:30 is going to kill me. Who knows how long I can keep this up.

I am sitting at work and it is now 8:48 am. I have only been here for 18 minutes and I already want to go home. This was my first week back at the office for my summer job. I shouldn't really base my whole summer off of this one week since it is the beginning and I need to get into the groove of things again. It sucks though because I can not log onto my computer or do much because I do not have my sign in and passwords. Luckily I can go on a temporary sign in and write this all down on my xanga. I just need to make it through the day and then tomorrow. The weekend can not come soon enough.

I think I am so anxious for Friday because Steve finally comes home from school. I am looking forward to what the summer will bring and hopefully a ring on my finger. :)

But other than all that fun stuff with Steve, I have to dread going to work everyday from 8:30 to 5:30 in order to make lots of money. Don't worry though, I will try not to spend it all and save most of it instead.

Lets just say..........its going to be a long summer

I really feel like the little engine that could (or could not) lately...

I just finished my 21 page paper last night and turned it in this morning. On top of that I have about 6 other projects that need to be finished by next wed. I am so frustrated and literally drained from school work. A wise person told me that I also take on too much. Besides all the homework that I wait til the last minute to do, I am hosting a party tonight in my apartment. I need to make some snacks and prepare for that, but also I do not really have time to do that because of work, class and babysitting. I haven't taken a nap this whole week and I am feeling the consequences of that and staying up late to finish homework. But besides all of this crap in my way of finishing the semester..... I still can see the light at the end.

I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.....
