I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

After a month+ of taking a break at Blogger, I've begun a new blog over at Livejournal. My heart has always been with LJ, if I'm being honest, so that's where my daily updates are at now.

I have decided, after thinking long and hard, that I would keep this blog open and post occaisonally. I originally began a blog to keep in touch with and follow Seashell and Kathy (Boyfriend's sister and mom) over at Two Hands Full of Daisies and I don't want to let that go!

So, a few updates from my month.

1. I've been picking up extra hours at work. This means two things: A barren checking account, since somehow I'm justifying spending so much on clothes, but a swollen savings account. I've only made withdrawals from it to help out my Mom when she needs a little extra $$ and she always pays me back within a week. I don't know what I'm going to use this money for, but who cares? Just having it makes me feel good.

2. I WAS ACCEPTED AT EMMANUEL.

3. I also got my financial aid award from them today (private schools are pricey, yaknow?) and it covers almost all of my tuition, but no room and board. Poo. But both parents have offered to help out in little ways, like my dad offered to buy my books (didn't specify for how long, but let's pretend he means indefinitely...) and I'm hoping he cosigns a loan for me, and my mom has repeatedly said "We'll make this work."

4. I've gotten back in touch with my exbff, Katie. Katie and I went our seperate ways when I began dating Boyfriend. She's at college now, right across the street from Emmanuel, so I got in touch with her just in case we were ever to meet up again like waiting for the T or something. When she comes home, possibly next weekend, we're going to meet and have lunch to talk things out. Seriously, we were the type of best friends that would have been best friends foreeeever, had we not had a stupid fight.

Okay I'm leaving now! I've been distracted!
