And first full day here. It's been really busy. We had to fill out a ton of papers and thngs. The demand for computers is high. I'll do a better update later! ~Tasha~ |

So I finally got my itinerary for my California trip. My plane will be leaving at 7:18 am and will be arriving in Chicago at 8:49 am. From there I will have a layover in Chicago until 10:15 and arrive in Sacramento at 12:39 pm. The excitement is mounting! |

So I'm leaving to go to Americorp in a mere 8 days, and I still haven't gotten my flight itinerary. I understand that there is a lot of issues going on with how the class size is significantly larger then it has ever been before and that they weren't able to start making travel arrangements until the first of October, but that doesn't make me feel any more patient XD. My mom is pretty much freaking out because she wants to know when my flight leaves ( she has to take the morning off of work or something to that effect). She made me promise to call her as soon as we get our itineraries even if it was a midnight or some other ridiculous time of night/morning. In other news, my job called me and asked if they could cut my final day because they went over hours. For the last month and a half they've been cutting my hours and my paychecks have suffered painfully. I could really use the money but I got so fed up that I said they could cut my last day just because I didn't feel like dealing with them. I still have to go back to return a book on Yorkshires I borrowed from the store and then my hands will pretty much be clean of them. I used to like working at PETCO so much but the longer I stayed there the more I realized how crappy of a place it is. I shouldn't rant too much about them though, since my boss did tell me that I could get a job there again if/when I came back. I don't plan on going back if I can help it but I don't want to burn my bridges if I don't have any choices. However, if I ever find a job that actually pays well I have no problem being the Poster Girl for Anti-Petco movements. With my job out of the way I have more time to spend focusing on the church's 275th party. I was going to do so much with it but now I've reduced myself to sparse table decorations. At least I was a help with the creative/thought process. I feel this desire to prove myself though since I"m the youngest person on the committee by no less then 25 years. I don't want them to see me as some kid who doesn't know what she's doing. In any case the countdown to Americorp commences. ~Tasha~ |

I know I haven't updated in a really long time. To catch you up journal (not that anyone reads you except Angela and she reads my other journal too so she's well aware of where things stand) I will be leaving Waterbury, CT and going onto base in Sacramento California is a mere 15 days. Tomorrow it will be two weeks exactly. I'm really nervous that people won't like me or that they might think that I'm fat. I'm also really excited because I know the program will be like nothing I have ever experienced before. It's going to be life changing, and I hope it's for the better and not for the worse, but either way...it's going to change something. Signs of my preparation are strewn about the house (much to my grandmother's chagrin). I have new running sneakers, and bags of clothes. The bedding I'm taking with me is piled high on the couch. Papers are massively tossed about as I try to separate my nonsense mail from the necessary. I still have so much to do. I have to print out my loan forms to qualify for forbearance, I need to buy or find a duffel bag big enough to fit all my clothes in it for the next ten months, I think to pick up my immunization records, and of course there are things to do outside of Americorp. Today I have to go to the park and start collecting leaves. I should have done it at least a week a go. I really don't want to go to the park by myself though. I need to figure out decorations for the church part...whether or not I'm going to be able to make the centerpieces. I'm having my doubt that the centerpieces are going to look good anyway. I also have to find the time to see my friends (Angie you're in this category), family, and of course Lena atleast one REALLY solid time before I leave. In any case it's going to be an adventure. I'll keep you updated. ~Hoping Hopeless~

It's not happening. I feel seriously ills again. I think I'm going to throw up. Also I have to walk up early tomorrow to take a shower. I have a job interview! Woot Woot. It's a Protocol in Cheshire (A phone center) and it's only temp work (2 weeks) but apparently it's full time and pay 9 bucks an hour so if nothing else it's a way of getting SOME cash. I also found out my aunt Mimi works there so the chances of me getting the job are really high. I need to talk to "The Boy" so that I can tell him about the interview and hopefully schedule seeing him around it. I also think that I found the dress I want for my mom's wedding today. It's pretty and I've decided I like the way it looks on me. I bought melatonin (sp?) while I was at the mall. It's a natural sleep supplement so I'm going to try it tonight. Other than that I hope everyone has a good night etc etc etc. ~Hoping_Hopeless~ |

Dear journal. Life is complicated. Sometimes I simply don't know what to do with myself. I know it's crazy, but I promise I'll update more later (possibly today) Hoping_Hopeless |

Day 6...Angie isn't over. We went to hometown together...some great quotes "I'm popped your cherry...cobbler" LOL. There were a lot more but I forgot them In a few hours I'll be leaving to get my stuff in Maine. I just found out that Mike was married to Octavia. I wonder if Jon knows? I wonder if she's happy? I wonder if she remembers me? Platta ~Hoping Hopeless~ |
