I am in a bad place right now. I am sitting at home and do not know what to do. I am frigging poor right now. I have no money and I feel like everything is in my face and I cant do anything about it if I wanted to. Yesterday, I was trying to help my friend out and gave him $80 to help him pay his rent. It didn't seem like a big thing until I got home. When I called my account to see how much money I had, it said I had $180.00 and some change so I gave him $80 of that. Then I put $15 in for gas. I got home and found out my cable was turned off and now I can't watch TV. I was going to pay it but found out now all of a sudden that I only had $50 and some change in my account and that's when I lost it. How did I go from having $180 to $50 and I only used $95? I still should have had $85 and the worse part is I can't find out what happened with the card I have. I tried to pay my cable with the little bit of money I had. I paid $40.54 then I called to see if it was getting turned back on. I was told now I have to pay $65 more dollars that I don't have to get it turned back on so now I'm gonna be tvless for a while. I wanted to try and pay some of my light bill cuz I'm behind on that too but the service that your suppose to pay it with always gives me a hard time. I just pray that I have enough time before they cut it off. I don't get paid again until next Friday and my rent is due then. If I don't have enough money to pay my rent and have some left over, then I'm not gonna be able to pay the whole thing and I'm already in trouble for being late too much. I am so in a bad place right now and I don't have anyone I can turn to. I can honestly sit here and can not think of anyone to ask to help me out and I don't feel comfortable asking anyone for money anyway, but if I did the last person I would want to ask is my mother I would be too embarrassed. I'm suppose to be getting the rest of my school money next week but its only $80. I'll see what I can do with that. A thought just popped in my head. I'm thinking if I can go to school and sell back some of my old books and get a little bit of money for them. I should have already sold them back by now but didn't. I think I'm gonna try that. I just hope I can make it through this rough patch okay. I just hope I don't come home one day and my lights are turned off. I can't even get my tax money because I wanted to open up a bank account first and I would need $25 to be able to open it. Obviously, I don't have $25 to be able to do that so now I have to wait to open an account and wait to do my taxes until I get the account. Pray for me......
On a much nicer note: I have a job interview Monday morning for a part time weekend job. I would only work Saturday and Sunday and the times are flexible. The lady I talked to on the phone told me that I would be able to come in anytime I want as long as I work a full 8 hours. Sounds good to me cuz I really need the extra money. I think the only bad thing is I would be working 7 days a week and I go to school full time so its looking like its going to be hard but considering the position I'm in right now I would be willing to make it work. I hope I get it and will be able to start soon.

What's Up???!!!
Hey oh!!!!
Wow I seriously have not posted since June. Where have I been? Anyway, I'm still in school, and work, and have my own place. I'm in my 4th semester of school and I'm hoping I'll be able to get through it okay. I'm taking 5 classes and 4 of them are online so at least there is some convenience. I'm also switching majors. I was going for Health Information Technology but to be able to take the program classes you have to apply and get accepted and I didn't get accepted so now I'm going For Hospitality Administration with a concentration in Hotel Management. I'm excited but I still haven't put in the paper work yet to switch so I still have to do that before I'm official. I hope one day I can go on to get my bachelors in Tourism, but I still want to go to school for Sign Language and hopefully I can do that once I graduate and get me a day job. I just feel like I am going to be in school forever.
In my last post from June, I mentioned a guy who I was smitten with. Well I can honestly say I am still smitten with him. We're not together or anything but I consider him a close friend who I am glad to have in my life. The sucky thing is I rarely ever get to see him. We unfortunately do not work together anymore. He has been gone for 2 and a half months and although I'm use to him not being around anymore, I still miss him. He was my inspiration to coming to work. Now all I can do is hope to catch him one day when he's not busy and hope we can hang out. But I still hope that one day he will be my one and only special guy. He is the only guy that I can honestly say holds my heart at the moment. Who knows when that will change though. We still have not been out on a date either and I'm waiting on that to happen. I want it to happen soon and hopefully it will. I'm still shocked that we were suppose to have our first date back in April and now its January. I'm just hoping the saying "Good Things Come to Those Who Wait" is true to its saying.
I hope to not wait so long before posting again. We'll see.

I didn't mean to wait...........
Hey
I didn't mean to wait this long to post again. Its been over two months since my last post. Well its summer but my summer is consisting of school and work unfortunately. I passed all me classes last semester but one of them I barely passed I came so close to failing but thanks to me usually doing good on lab tests I passed. The lecture tests is what messed me up. I'm glad I got one semester down and out the way though. Now I'm in my semester which just started this week and I'm ready for it to be over. I got 7 more weeks to go. The classes I'm taken are English and Public Speaking. The dreaded public speaking that I wish I didn't have to take but I gotta get it out the way sooner or later so why not now. The sooner the better. I want it to be over as fast as possible I so hate having to talk in front of a class but I know I'm not the only one out there who has that problem and I'll just try to think that I'm not the only person in that class that feels that way so hopefully everything will work out. As long as I pass I will be happy. Luckily we have a really nice teacher so things shouldn't go to horrible. Work is going great. I'm still thankful I have my job. I feel so blessed to have it and couldn't imagine another one.
I almost forgot. I finally got to move into my own place. I love living by myself. Its something I have wanted for years and now I finally get to do it. The bills aren't that bad. As long as I pay them on time everything should be good. The only thing I'm waiting to do is buy me a new cell phone. I like the phone I have now but its time to upgrade to something else plus I want to lower my bill and not have to pay $80 some dollars a month. I'm waiting to get my money back from school and I can just use that hopefully I'll get it within the next week.
There's also a new guy in my life. He's not my boyfriend but I'm hoping it will happen one day but its not the right time right now. I met him at work and first he would come after me but lately it seems like I have been going after him. He's a great guy and he just makes me happy everytime I see him. I really think I am smitten. It seems like he's all I think about now and I start to miss him when he's not around. The good thing is at least I'm finally over the last dude that I wanted to be with. That's a good thing. I rather have him as a friend anyway. All the things that I have witnessed that he's done to other girls namely his ex and current girlfriends, made me realize that if we were together he would do the same things to me and that's not what I want. So this new guy I'm crazy over is the sweetest guy, he gives me hugs, all the hugs I want, and I like them a lot. The only thing that sucks is that we haven't been on a first date yet and I'm waiting on that. He believes in paying for the date, not me paying or going dutch, so I really like that. He's the first guy that I know who does that so that's definately one of the things that attracts me to him. I just can't wait to be able to get to know him better and hopefully things progress with us. I'm so hoping he's the man I have been waiting on forever. Only time will tell...........

I'm here.......
Hey!!!
Its been a while but not as long as last time. I think its been only a month and a half. Well I'm sitting at work right now waiting to leave. I'll get out of this room in exactly 14 minutes then I can get ready to go home and study for a little while. This is my first day back to work in a week and I totally didn't want to come in. I was so use to being off and not having to worry about coming in. I wish it could have lasted longer but I was eventually going to have to come back whether I wanted to or not. Luckily, today wasn't too horrible. I can't believe my first semester of school is almost over. Just 6 more weeks left or 5 if I don't count this week. I can't wait to have my first semester out the way. I just hope I come out with good grades. Its only one class that I don't know what my grade will end up being at the end of semester and that's my A&P class. My other classes I know I should pass with no problem but that's the only one I not so sure of. All I know is I better study my butt off these last couple of weeks if I want to come out with a decent grade. Its one thing in my A&P lecture class that bothers me and that's some of the students be leaving early. I mean EARLY!! Its like two girls that I notice that leaves no more than 30 minutes into the class. Its so stupid. Today they left 15 minutes into the class and I'm wondering what's the point in showing up when your just gonna leave. At least stay longer than 15 minutes that's a waste of a trip. Anyway, I had a great time away from work. I actually went to a beauty shop and got my hair pressed out. I'm glad I did because I love my hair pressed out but only when somebody else does it. If I do it, it turns into a puffy mess and it makes me mad that I wasted all that time doing it and it doesn't turn out right. I hope I can put it in my budget to get it done once every other month or every two months. It also was my birthday last Friday and I went to go see Kevin Hart's comedy show with my best friend and we met up with some other friends at Dave & Buster's but didn't play any games. It was still fun. I can't believe I am 23 years old. How times flies. I'm so hoping in a couple of years I will have found Mr. Right and will get married and have a family. Only time will tell but I'm so ready to start having a family if only I could actually be in a real relationship with someone to get to that point. It will happen one day. You know the saying, "Good things come to those who wait" and I'm definitely waiting as patiently as I can.
Bye for now!!

Is it wrong cuz I just can't help myself.....
I wonder if its wrong for me to have a crush on a 14 year old? LOL!!!! I'm 22 almost 23 and I have a crush on Daniel "Diggy" Simmons. He has to be the cutest thing out there. He has great fashion sense and it seems like he has a good head on his shoulders for somebody his age. I know he's only 14 almost 15 but I just can't help myself. He has the cutest smile and now that his braces are off. OMG!!!!!! Gorgeous doesn't give enough credit to his smile. I know I'm his sister Angela's age but man oh man he is so cute. I wonder if that would make me a couger for liking someone 9 years younger than me. I think it would but its just a crush. He is too much!!!
Wowzer!!!!......
Wow! I just realized I haven't posted anything in almost 3 months!!! That's crazy but let me tell you what's been going on. I have a job. Yes FINALLY!!! Its going great and I don't see myself leaving this job for awhile and I'm officially back in school. So big things are going on with me and I'm so thankful to be in this place in my life. This time last year I was no where. No school, no job, no money, didn't know how I was going to make it to the next day or week. Glad all my struggling is finally over. So I'm going to my community college for Health Information Technology and I can say so far, so good. I'm taking four classes right now and one of them I'm almost through with since it is only an 8 week class I have two more weeks to go then I'll be down to just 3 classes and I'll have my first class completed on my long journey to my degree. I'm excited though. Just trying to make it and stay focus since the last time I was in school I had a hard time staying focused and I'm not trying to repeat the same mistakes I made back then. The job I have is at a hospital and I'm still amazed that I have it, cause let's face it, getting a job at a hospital is like trying to win the lottery its not easy. I always use to say that but I was blessed to get this job. It was just what I needed and its a great job. I walk around alot so I know I get my exercise in everyday and when I have down time I get to sit in a room where I work at and not have to worry about being bothered too much. There's a computer in here that I have all to myself so I don't have to worry about sharing it with anybody and I usually sit and study or do my school work when I have a chance so its great. Another cool thing is I just bought me a laptop finally. I have been wanting to get one forever and I was finally able to get one thanks to my tuition money I got back. I love it its my favorite color red but I still don't have the internet on it but I'm working on it. I haven't really done anything with it because its basically useless without the internet lol. Plus I'm trying to start saving up money because in a couple of months I will finally be getting to move out on my own and I can't wait. I have been trying to get my own place for over 2 years but was never able to because either I had a low paying part time job or I couldn't get a full time job. Now everything is falling into place and I'm so excited. For a long time I have been waiting for my life to start getting better and for the struggles to be over and they are. Now if only my love life wasn't so hard to figure out but that's another story.....

Feeling Good........
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!
Yeah I know I'm late with that now that its the day after but oh well. Its Black Friday!!!! One of the craziest shopping days of the year the other being the day after Christmas. I might actually try to hit a store today. Even though I'm not into the whole waiting in long lines and mega crowds. But Target has my favorite show Psych season 3 on sale for $12.99 and I'm so going to try and get it if its not sold out by the time I get up there. I already have seasons 1 and 2 so all I need is season 3 and still have to wait for season 4 to come out which won't be out until probably the end of next year. I'm trying to get me a laptop too. So lucky for me I'm working(more on that later) so I'm just trying to save up enough for one and the one I want is $400. So just a little more saving to go and hopefully I will have it by the end of this year.
I haven't blogged in awhile so the last post I wrote talked about me going to a staffing agency and getting hired at the job I had previous interviewed for. Well after the orientation I had to wait almost 2 weeks before I officially started working. So when I did I started out having to de-kit which was taking cell phones out of their box and sorting the pieces that came with it. It was an okay thing but standing on your feet for 8 hours is no fun especially when I was hired to do computer returns. Another thing that sucked was when I had to take the stuff out the box you have to use box cutters and scissors. Believe me when I say I have cut myself plenty of times it is not fun at all. Well so far I have been working there officially a month and half this week but either after next week or the week after I won't be working there anymore. Another story: 3 weeks ago I got a phone call about a job at a hospital. I'm lucky I made it to the phone to answer it at first I thought it was nobody but I answered it before it was too late. The guy called me on a Monday for an interview on Thursday. Believe me I was soooo anxious for that day. I had to be up and there early it was at 8:00am. Anyway after the interview came the hard, stressful wait to hear if I got the job but luckily I had another job so if that one didn't come through I always had the one I'm at now. So I basically waited 2 weeks before I heard anything then last Friday I got sick of waiting and called the guy myself to see what the verdict was and he told me then that I GOT THE JOB!!!! I'm still waiting to hear when I'm going to start so hopefully I'll find out by the end of next week. I'm so ready to start my new job but kinda dislike having to leave the job I'm at now. I've been there over a month and I'm use to being there and use to the people but I have to go to the job with the opportunity, the benefits, and no fear of being layed off. I can honestly say that is the best news I have gotten all year. Now I have my job at a hospital which it is a permanent one so no more jobs through temp. agencies. I'll hopefully be able to move into my own place by next August if everything goes good and working at a hospital they will help me pay for school since I'm going for a health related field and I'm planning to go back next Fall so everything is going great for me. Its been a long time since I can say that I'm happy with life and its a great feeling.
On a side note, the guy I always mention on here that I like who got back with his ex girlfriend FINALLY broke up with her. That's the second best news I have heard. I knew it was going to happen sooner or later. I'm just glad he's done with her for good and I'm hoping he will be able to move on from her. She was no good for him and I honestly don't know why he wasted time with her in the first place. So glad that whole situation is over so I should be able to end this year happy I hope. We'll see what happens in the coming weeks. Thanksgiving: over, next stop: Christmas.
