Findings!

I was flipping through my library books this morning, trying to figure out what one to read. You know, what book will be the FIRST one that I complete? Well, I picked Intensely Alice by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. Not just because it seems interesting, but because I've been reading about Alice for SO LONG! I don't even think I was in high school when I ventured into her world... And I LOVE IT! So of course I want to see what's a-happening now! So I am going to go START IT as soon as I finish writing this.

Yeah.

But something ELSE happened when I was flipping through the books! I found a gift certificate! For the movies. 10 dollars (I checked). Now, I don't know what to do. I mean... Do I return it? Or do I just keep it? Because if I keep it, this can pay for my movie adventure in November when I go see Harry Potter. PLUS I don't know if the people will even GET the card back... You know? (I obviously made my decision and just trying to justify it at this point.) Yeah. So that was exciting enough, I'd say. You never know what you find in books... Especially library books! I actually once forgot my passport in a book, and my mom and I had to go on the shelf to look for it... We found it, don't worry.

But now my mom makes me check every book before I return it.. IT WAS JUST ONE TIME! (ha.)

Yeah. Not good.

Anyway, my computer is HERE in my city! I just have to sweet talk my mom into taking me to pick it up. Like I suspected, I won't be able to just get it in the mail. Too bad, but meh. Another exciting thing in the mail was that I got some money from a scholarship thing! Now I can REALLY pay for my own books! Well, not me per say, but STILL! IT'S EXCITING! Also: I'm going to follow my teacher's advice when he says if you get scholarship money, USE IT FOR SCHOOL. So... As tempting as it is, I'm not going to use it for LeakyCon. I'll keep that for my paycheque.

I am watching televison with my parents! Or I was....

I got paid today! AND IT WAS COOL! Although I hate how I can't keep my GROSS amount. SIGH. It makes me sad! Although as I mentioned before, there is a brightside: I can complain about the way my goverment is spending money! Whoohoo!

I have decided to give my mom the majority of my money, so I don't feel bad about my computer. Alas, I save $100 for LeakyCon, and the rest goes to just general life. Aka: movies and such! Such being books... And mailing parcels. Yes! It WILL come to you! (You being Leah.)

So this evening, I watched an episode of Veronica Mars, and an episode of Psych. I watched Psych with my parents, and they enjoyed it! AS IN, they laughed! You know they like a show when they laugh watching it. At least that's how I notice things... Unless it's a drama or something. I don't know. My thought train doesn't have a track to follow all that well. *frown*

I worked today... I had thirteen rooms! Although I had to help a co-worker, and at the end of my shift, my feet were SORE! It's like they forgot this past week about the definition of SORE FEET. It was sad! I couldn't even walk when I got home. HENCE the tv watching, mon ami! YEAH.

I've got such an interesting life...

Anyway, I'm sure the episode of Psych I left my parents with is halfover, so... Later!

One of my favorites songs appeared in Made of Honor! I was surprised---oh you 'Henrietta!'

I watched a movie today! I never saw it before, so it was nice for three reasons: 1) I was able to watch something entirely new! 2) I didn't have that stupid feeling of wanting to shut off the tv halfway through or anything... And 3) I was able to disappear from my life for an hour and forty minutes.

The movie was MADE OF HONOR. I usually have this thing with movies: The previews will tell you how interesting the movie will be. Except I have to say that the previews for MADE OF HONOR were really stupid! I didn't enjoy them that much--they were lacking some interesting times! So the previews didn't really live up to the movie, as the movie was quite alright.

I have this way of sitting through movies, that makes my jaw sore. And it's really annoying! It's actually not just movies, but with television, too. TRAGIC. So I must get a new sitting position or something. It's true.

After the movie, I dyed my hair--I attempted alone at first, but my mom walked by, and saw I was struggling. SO SHE HELPED! And I was like to my mom, "I guess you know I won't dye my hair randomly next year..." Hah. YEAH. Although if I do, I wonder how that'll go down. My mom also suggested I should get a haircut soon, so I think I might! I won't get it too short, but also not too much, as a ponytail = amazing when I'm working.

Speaking of work, I go back tomorrow. I DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS! I hope I don't get a ridiculous amount of rooms... And I hope it goes by fast! Yeah! Plus I *might* get my first paycheque, and that's cool! I will be able to start saving for LeakyCon! =) YEAH! I'm excited.

Although last night I got TOO excited about LeakyCon. I was spamming my friend with messages about it... And just, I don't know. I started planning, and even contemplated buying my registration thing TOMORROW! Of course, I don't know if I will, as the package I want, I don't think I'll be able to afford it just yet! BUT JUST YOU WAIT, PACKAGE!! Yes! I told my mom about LeakyCon, and how I'm GOING FORSURE. She's FINE with that, but she's skeptical on how I'm going to manage to save for it. This is where she talked about staying home for school, and how much I would've saved doing that. And she's right, I would've saved.

I even would've been able to go to Infinitus. SADLY, I think leaving home is more awesome right now. Although in reality, it's starting to be a sad thing! Oh well, too late for that. (Even though I want to go away!)

I'm just babbling at this point, because once I PUBLISH this, I'll have to go to sleep. Oh. SLEEP. I love you, but only when it's happening. Plus I feel like I want to listen to a podcast, but that'll just SLOW ME DOWN. Slowing me down means not enough sleep. I don't know. I think I *might* just stop this now... With an MLIA!

Today i vacuumed my lawn.why you ask? i just wanted to make my neighbors stare


Or...

Today, I realized how my opinion of dog catchers has been tainted by Disney movies. MLIA


Or...

Today, I was talking on the phone to my boyfriend. After 10 minutes of this, I realized that it was not my boyfriend, but his older brother. At the same moment, he realized that I was not some friend of his from college. We both hung up awkwardly. MLIA
