I took gym. It sucked. Yeah, going to Florida should be a blast. I might go on a road trip to Destin, but that all depends on whether I can get some money together. I need a job, but no one seems to be wanting to hire me.
O you're welcome. My summer's been decent despite summer school, but that finished today so everything should be up from here. How has your summer been?
Ahhhhh. Man, if I got paid to sweep, I'd be the happiest person alive. X)
But in all honesty, even though I hate Tommy, I'm not seriously shallow enough to get him in trouble. I hate a lot of people, but not enough to try to fuck them over. I know he's tried to screw me over several times, and that's messed up. But I'm not going to stoop to his level. Plus, his mom doesn't even care how much trouble he gets into.
I would apply to the mall, problem is... I need a summer job. =| I'm actually thinking Wal Mart or Target, since the ride there isn't completely horrible like the ride to downtown kirkwood is. However, I think you have to be 18 to work at Target... The online application referred to potential employees as "Recent graduates" and "College students". I know my oldest sister worked at Wal Mart when she was sixteen, so I think I have a good shot. It would suck, but I need cash money. X)
How did you even come about working at that hair place? I seriously never even knew there was a salon there, I can't imagine how you were able to not only FIND it, but get a JOB there. XD
That sounds reallyyy fun. I feel like that's how I would be if I worked at Torrid at West County, I think I'd love working there. Everyone was SOOOOO nice when I went there to get my swimsuit and I told them I was going to apply since they're hiring, but when I told my dad he got all pissy because I don't have a license and the mall is forever away from our house when it comes to walking or riding a bike, and he couldn't drop me off in mornings because he leaves at like six and Abbey works out in Eureka so it was impossible. So yeah, I hope I get hired at Global Foods- it's doubtful, but I hope so. The ride there is pretty much all downhill and I prefer to work somewhere like that. Well, as opposed to somewhere like Taco Bell or some other fast food restaurant, where not only would I gain weight from eating fast food all freaking day, but it gets SO busy there and I hate the people that eat there that go to our school. It's just asking for super trouble. XD
I mean, I know that people like Tommy and all of his friends probably go to Global, but all they do is steal crap and it would be AMAZING to bust him for it. X)
Yepppp.
I haven't applied for MM yet, no. I should, but they aren't accepting applications until the second week of July. They only have positions available for the fall, so I could work there over the school year. :)
What do you do at the salon? Do you cut people's hair?
No, you didn't know us- it was the summer from the seventh grade going into the eighth grade, before Abbey started going to North. XD
The free concert is Umphrey's McGee and Sound Tribe Sector 9. When you grow up around a guy like my dad, who listens to just about everything, those two bands are like religiously played around you. XD
They're amazing, so I'm excited.
I agree that school completely sucked. I have never in my life single-handedly wiped out like fifteen friends from my life. 98% of the reason was because they were druggie pill poppers and I really, REALLY hate druggies. I don't mind stoners, obviously, but if people seriously overdose things like coricidin and aderol just to 'be on drugs' then I want nothing to do with them. I mean, I used to tolerate it, but around spring break when I almost (quite literally) murdered Meagan Murdock at the McDonalds in downtown Kirkwood, that was when I just completely lost my tolerance. I mean, seriously, Amber. How retarded do you have to be to overdose baby medicine just to get some sort of "drug" effect? Seriousllyyyy! Ew.
It's good that you're enjoying your summer. You're lucky that you have a job and all that, do you still work at that same hair place that I never really knew existed?
Whhaattt? Somebody else just told me 25 bucks, but the website I was looking at said 55... Maybe it was a different venue. I will look.
And yes, Abbey is very interesting. XD You know, I was with her the first time she ever saw you. It was like four years ago and you were walking your dog with Molly Vondorsten or whatever her name is, you know. Hahaha.
As a matter of fact, about concerts, there's a free concert under the arch in a couple of weeks and Will and I are going. It's the night before 311/Snoop. I'm uber excited.
I get the whole Paramore thing, I've only heard like three of their songs and they're hella good. Besides that crushcrushcrush song... Ugh... But the other three are catchy and fun. LOL. X)
I'm not going to get my hopes up about warped, but I will say that I have fifteen bucks and it doesn't seem that hard for me to accumulate 10 more. I'll see what I can do.
It's on the 12th. I'm semi-excited, but I was a lot more excited when I thought Ian was coming with me. Turns out my dad "heard me wrong" when I told him I wanted two tickets for my birthday, and he only got me one. I mean I'm thankful, but I feel really bad because I told Ian he was going to come with me. I'm still going with Will, he got his own ticket, but I feel bad.
Ahh, Paramore. I'm glad they aren't the most overrated band in America like they were at last year's warped tour. Somebody was crowd surfing and fell on top of my friend's head and knocked her out during Misery Business. It sucked. XD
I just looked up the prices. 50 to 60 bucks?! WHHAATTT? That's ridiculous. I have fifteen bucks, which, I thought it was going to be 18 bucks. Like pointfest. sdklfjdsjfsdlf. Jesus. I hope a miracle will come up and I will be able to go. Because I really, really, REALLY want to go.
You're extremely lucky. Ironically, I was looking up the tickets and Abbey goes, "So, guess who got FREE tickets AND backstage passes?" I'm like, "Hmm... Amber?" She's like, "I guess word gets out fast!"
I don't have my license because I keep failing the permit test. I have a horrible brain disorder and I just don't function under pressure. When you're sitting at that computer, I feel like, "I'm gonna fail. I'm gonna fail." and then I always fail, and I have to face the embarrassment of walking up in front of all those people to tell the person I failed. Then I retake the test, fail it, and go through the anxiety once again.
It's hella pathetic. XD But they put me on drugs to 'calm' my brain in those situations, so I hope I can take it again soon.
Anyway, DEAR GOD. You are so lucky... I've been looking forward to Warped Tour all year. But it occurred to me the other day that I didn't even have a ticket. =| I always assumed Will's parents would buy it or something to that effect. That somebody would just give me a ticket like last year. This sucks, because I was supposed to meet up with like fifty of my myspace friends and that is now out of the question =O
It sucks. I hope somebody will spontaneously pop out of the ground with warped tickets.
I am, however, going to the Snoop Dogg/311 concert, and I am EXTREMELY excited for that. =D
Quick hair extension rant; With me, it's like that anyway- I have human hair extensions and they were 100 bucks! Since I have yet to get a job, that's a ton of money to me, and I was uber pissed when I got them because I thought they were naturally black. I was wrong. They were DYED jet black, making them close to impossible to color the way I'd dreamt up. I spent like $60 on bleach kits and they never worked, so I finally bought a bleach kit and left the bleach on the hair while I went to school. When I came home, the bleached part of the extensions were silvery gray. I just decided to make do with that and put the pink dye in, which came out as more of a purple. I still wish I'd have gotten platinum blonde ones and just dyed the non-colorful parts black. But c'est la vie, I like them now. But I need to get the back of my hair done... It looks like a dog in the back, when it's supposed to look the way your hair looks in the back in your default pic. It isn't supposed to be all thick and bushy and long, it's supposed to be extremely short and layered!! I hate it. XD But it's all good.
Annnyywayy. My summer's been dreadful because I only have like two people that I hang out with, Will and Ian, and they both have jobs. So I've been alone like 90% of the summer. One week Ian's at his dad's and he's not allowed to see me. But the next week he goes to his mom's, and we hang out every day. Will comes over every few days (since I don't have a license and he lives like a mile and a half away) and when I'm not with those guys, I'm fucked. I basically have no life, so I'm applying to work at McDonnell's market next week.
Sorreh for the long comment ^_^' I get carried away. Mhm.
Gotcha. It's hella pretty. I wish I could do cool things to my hair. But you can't do ANYTHING to black hair. Thus why I had to buy and dye extensions! :D
That's what my dad said in like the seventh grade, but I ended up dying my hair black while my mom and I were in Florida like a week later. He was mad at first, but got over it. X)
I love your hair like it is, though. Now that I think of it, black would just be too plain.
Dannnggg. I'd kill them. I think it looks ADORABLE. It'd be pretty cool if you bought that L'oreal color moose (I can't spell, obviously) in black and had like, black hair for a day.
Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars - points of light and reason...And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no reason for anything. "
