My chest closes up with anxiety every time I go to check my Wayne State e-mail. I don't know what I'm expecting but it's fucking annoying. |

Ashley never made it to Texas I guess, and she's coming to live here? |

This summer is weird. I've been babysitting a lot, and trying to balance out hanging out with my friends from home, school, and those that I have lost touch with, but I end up being too tired to do anything, and the idea of doing anything is exhausting, so I just hang out with Brian. It's the same for him, I'm sure, but only worse, since he does actual labor in the hot sun instead of watching little porn fiends all day. I call people, I want to make plans, but people are just too busy I guess? I don't know. I hung out with Emily a couple weeks ago and it was awesome, but even that was kind of awkward because I've become withdrawn. I hope to hang out with her again and maybe I will be less withdrawn. I hung out with Ashley then she moved to Texas. Damn. I used to be talkative, constantly trying to engage in conversation. I'm not sure what happened. I want to hang out with people but I think I'm just too boring now and people don't want to hang out with me. I'm too shy to hang out with people I've been friends with for years. I left my personality in Detroit, I think. |

My babysitting job is pretty swell. I'm learning to cook legitimate food too. I made pork chops on Tuesday and home made tostadas on Wednesday. Downside: I get sick every day when I come home. Also, If I'm not here to physically place a meal in front of my dad he will not eat. Even today when I came home he was on the verge of having an insulin reaction. He thinks it's rebellious for him not to eat since he's diabetic. It's stupid and juvenile.
Things are going shitty with my fall job. She already offered me the job, I've already gotten fingerprinted ($63 out of my pocket) and what not. However, since I got paid under the table at Premier, there's no record of me working there, and my reference did not check out. She asked for another reference and would not accept Mr. Mittelstadt because he's a teacher, even though I never had him as a teacher personally and I only volunteered in his class. She requested that it be someone I babysat for, so the lady I babysit for right now agreed to be a reference. Hopefully that works out. Besides this, I haven't had a steady babysitting job since 8th or 9th grade. As for my personal reference, Brian didn't talk to her because the phone cut out and she never called back. My other personal reference was the president of my sorority (an ideal reference, since she's in a position of authority and will be starting teaching elementary in the fall!), and the phone number I put down was her house number, so when Cathy called, she didn't get her. However, I gave her the cell number and Karen said she gave me a rave review. I really hope this works out. I hate that to get a job you need work experience, and you can't get work experience if you can't get a job. Catch-22s suck balls. |

Things are going wonderfully. I'm babysitting. The boys pretty much just play video games, watch television, and soon will be swimming all the time. Yesterday we played basketball and some hardcore electronic version of hot potato. Today I introduced them to grilled cheese with Kraft singles AND Swiss.
Also, the latchkey-esque job looks very promising. My future-boss asked me if I would be available for two schools, one in Roseville and one in Detroit. I'm super excited. This is certainly the job for me. |

I got the job! Yay! Also, I'm pretty sure I left my key in the second floor bathroom of the student center today. By the time I realized it was gone, the lost and found was already closed. It actually might have been closed before then. Anyway, I found a spare key in the roadside assistance thing in my glove box. |

Well, hey. I applied for a job I found on Craigslist at a day care for the fall. I got an e-mail back from the director and she asked if I can come to Ann Arbor for an interview. Yay! It would absolutely be the best job for me during the fall. The hours would never interfere with my classes. Hopefully I get it! |

Any Wayne State buddies that plan on taking Macroeconomics, I'll sell you the book cheap. I got the "expanded custom edition" online, which just has a different cover than the regular edition plus appendixes to a few chapters. No highlighting or anything, looks brand new. |

I'm going to see Lily Allen on Monday. I'm excited! I haven't been to a concert since Minus the Bear. Also, if anyone wants to come, N.E.R.D is playing FO FREE at Wayne on Thursday. |

I have a B in my economics class :(. Well, she hasn't curved the grade yet, dropped my lowest quiz, or included my presentation. Plus, I still have the final. Sigh. The Swellers have a show with Propagandhi in June. Who wants to go? |

My mom and dad are dead set in moving to Tennessee. I'd rather kill myself than live where they want to move (near my brothers house, on a fucking mountain in BFE). Okay, that's a little melodramatic. But I won't live there, ever. I'd probably die from unhappiness. Travis doesn't want to go either. Plus, the only college I'd even be willing to go to in Tennessee is Vanderbilt and I probably couldn't get in, not to mention pay for it. If I can't get into University Towers, I need to find an apartment elsewhere that I can afford and will allow me to have a cat. I have custody of Gus, "Gustody" if you will. This makes my need for a second summer job even more dire. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
**edit** The worst part about it is my mom is taking it as a personal attack on her that we don't want to go. My dad completely understands and knows that there isn't shit to do where they want to move. She's just being selfish but I can't live my life for her. |

Well, I convinced my mom and dad to let me live on campus again next year. I'm getting an apartment at University Tower with Dee and one of our friends. It's a stone's throw from the Magic Stick. I don't know if I'm excited about it or not. It makes me anxious because I won't be coming home as much and I'm not sure who I'll get to see, or when. I'll have my car so I can go drive to visit Brian. I'm not getting a meal plan so it would probably be wise to find a job so I can feed myself, not to mention pay for gas. Growing up is scary. |

Well, lately I've realized how shitty a lot of my friends are. Josh Knapp is literally my only friend that calls me back, and Phil always follows through with our plans. Emily and Rachel are the only ones that call me out of free will. I try to make plans with people but it's pretty fucking hard when they don't pick up the phone. I don't really care though. I tried, so I'm not going to try anymore. It's a good thing I have good friends at school, not to mention a very loving and encouraging boyfriend, or I'd probably be really depressed about this. |
