I know you are going to kill me when you hear this but... I might not even go anymore. I got offered a summer job in Washington DC installing security systems and I am promised (and this is in a contract I will sign if I decide to do this) at least 30,000 bucks. I would return home sometime in September with a lot more money. That said because the company I might work for owns appartments and would actually pay for my food and my appartments and all that stuff. Don't kill me yet, I haven't even decided if I will go, it is kind of iffy still. I mean my parents aren't to keen on the idea but what can they do? They have no power over me once I graduate (something I hope I am ready for, living on my own making my own living I mean, not graduating, I got that in the bag.) Chances are I won't go though, and I will be ready for the con don't worry.

There is a meeting on Saturday that I will go to so I can check it out. I think the whole thing sounds a little fishy still. Kind of like it is to good to be true. I will see what they are about and I might just go. I don't want to be caught in some illegal money making scam however. I am trying to be very careful about the whole situation.

Don't forget to take notes. Make sure you don't miss a thing. Then show your notes to your parents.

They moved it to Tuesday. I am going to go for sure. General Electric is the company so I don't think that there could be anything wrong with it, but I don't know. I will tell you about it after the meeting thing.

Yes actually. I have heard of more than one person they wouldn't pay while they were there. So pretty much they could withold money. I didn't work for a game company called Saphire for that same reason. If I am going out there for nothing there is no way in heck I am leaving. I have decided to stay. Besides I got offered another good job, and also I might happen to go to Japan as a graduation present depending on costs.

Dude, that's way rad! Way to go, your my friggin hero. Anyways, our basement flooded last week. It sucked since I live down there. Shed a tear for my lost characther sheets (destroyed by water). I found a cool new comic, it's not very long and it doesn't update very often, but it's pretty cool. Gone with the blast wave.I just love post apocalyptic...stuff. |

Oh noes, MID TERM STRESS! You should do what I do. Slack off! You need to just take it easy man, let a few things slide. It'll reenergize you. Then again, you'll end up like me if you do that. A crazy slacking bum. Starving artist and all that. But serisouly man, just take a break, sing in the shower and drink chocolate milk.

I don't have time to slack off. I do that I don't graduate. I am quitting my job (I will have a new one) I had such a bad day at work again. I heard more cussing today at work then I have ever heard in the halls at school. I have been crying all day. I hate my life so badly right now Ashley is the only thing keeping me going. I am so stressed out that I am making myself sick. I can barely function. Heck my birthday is coming up so you think I would be happy but I have so much stuff forced upon me that I have to do I can't even think straight. A couple days ago I almost had to go to the hospital during work because I passed out and had bad heat stroke. They decided they didn't want the bill however so they just told me to go home. I almost passed out behind the wheel. I can't even function anymore.
