iitt's cco-old! must finally be winter in kansas. there was even a flurry of snow on the news the other day... it flew over wichita and hardly brushed us, but it was there! i love cold weather, and the holidays, and family ... my brothers are driving home from Tennessee today! They won't leave Freed until 2pm-ish, so they'll get here early in the morning really. I'm excited to see them, especially Ian, since this is his first break since the start of his Freshman year. =)
We're going to see Harry Potter tomorrow night, and go to the Coffee Club too. I love that we still do things together as siblings, someday we'll have families all our own to take care of, and won't get to do this.
I have an interview/application/test at T-Mobile's Call Center in Wichita on Tuesday. They pay oh, about 2-3 dollars an hour MORE than I'm being paid right now. Completed the phone interview last night, with all the questions about times when I've provided excellent customer service, and when I've dealt with irate customers, and why I think I'd be good for T-Mobile. Heh. We'll see. God has a plan, and it's bigger than me... I just keep trudging on.
That's what it feels like somedays. Trudge. Good word.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with Penney's ... I'm just not ready to let my job define me. And I don't want that job to be me. It's taught me alot, and helped me realize that I can achieve alot, and learn alot. However, I have no time to even sit down and do homework without wanting to just sleep! How am I supposed to have good grades when I don't have enough hours in the day?
brrr... I think I'm going to get some coffee now.

quote of the day
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it. - Ellen Goodman

If Leaving Me Is Easy
I read all the letters, I read each word that you've sent to me
And though it's past now, and the words start to fade
All the memories I have start, still remainI've kept all the pictures,
but I hide my feelings so no-one knows
Oh sure my friends all come round,
but I'm in a crowd on my own
It's 'cos you're gone now, but your heart, still remains
And it'll be here if you come again
You see, I'd heard the rumours, I knew before you let me know
But I didn't believe it, not you,
No you would not let me go
Seems I was wrong, but I love, I love you the same
And that's the one thing that you can't take away but just remember...
If leaving me is easy,
Going back is harder...

- interviewed me, it took 2 whole hours, gah.
but it helped me gain a little perspective as to the whole, should i move to wichita debate. the only way i'll go to wsu is if they can help me find a part time job/work study and can provide me housing on campus. picky aren't i?
option two is to work for my friend jamilah at her coffee shop part time, and go to southwestern with all those lovely loans. =)
option three is to run away to south america and become a drug lord.

ok, so stating your goals in writing helps you achieve them, right? that's the theory i'm going with here:
goal one: get healthy
goal two: lose 60 lbs. - that's 10 lbs a month, i can do that, right? right?
goal three: balance work and school and manage to make monthly car payments...
ok, the third one is the one i'm going to have to tackle hard. right now, as much as i like penney's, it just isn't working. i am barely squeezing in study time for 4 classes at a glorified-highschool community college, my brain will EXPLODE if i combine penney's with full time real college.
they just don't pay me enough for the hours i work, or the stress i get as a lovely bonus as a supervisor. plus, i HAVE to work MWF in the mornings, and we all know that's when most real college classes are scheduled. ack.
but right now, i'm pleased with myself. i just finished a 30 minute workout, and am about to tackle sociology homework before going to wichita for a job interview. yay!
and as to brian setzer, i love psuedo swing music.
