a change in plans..

okay.

there's this scholarship here that i qualified for but never did the paperwork for

i got in contact with my old guidance counselor about it and she called me back today and basically now i might be going to school starting this fall

the scholarship requires that i not take any time off between graduation and starting college (aside from summer) so my counselor told me about a school with open admission that would definitely accept me

so i applied there and called the lady at the school that she talked to and apparently i'll have all my acceptance stuff by the end of the week

it's a lot more affordable than any of the other schools i've been accepted to

..

i've been working with my counselor since 9:30 this morning and finished just about all the necessary paperwork,

i'm still not sure how i feel about all of this, but i've already done all this

haha it just happened so suddenly o.o

the plan

okay, so i didn't get into Duke

apparently there was no room for the people on the waiting list

it's alright though, i sort of expected as much, though i did hope for a miracle lol

i previously applied for the spring semester at a local university

so from here on i'll take the time i have during the summer and fall to save up for a car and car insurance

in the mean time, i'll work on my driving and hopefully (FINALLY) obtain a license, haha

time to grow up

---

it's funny because it was my dad's suggestion about the whole car thing

he told me roughly how much i'd need to save .. and i was genuinly surprised

it was the first time i'd ever been offered that kind of freedom

my parents were always so terrified at the thought of me driving that i scared myself out of it too

now it's like they're letting me go a little

lol

and now i want it so badly i can almost taste my music on the breeze of an open window

the pride and satisfaction of getting something that i got all by myself, even if it's probably going to break down more times than it's worth

the power to do what i want and to go where i want when i want

independence sounds so so sweet

and i know it won't last and that makes it even more appealing

haha, yeah.

Work today

Despite the fact that I rammed my elbow into a poor unsuspecting bottle of soysauce (which I did knock over and spill), spilled some leftover udon soup on my shirt, nervous-laughed most of my way through like a bumbling fool, had my cellphone ring while I was bringing food over when IKNOW I put it on vibrate (stupid phone), and actually forgot to bring drinks to 1 of my tables, it's been kind of a fun day so far.. haha..

isn't this amazing!? xD

i like this book..

Her voice is so sweet it's almost ridiculous. It's like strawberry-flavored or something, that voice.

it sounds so pretty *.*

positive thoughts

i deleted my other blog because it was depressing and full of poo.

:D
