It is exactly two weeks until my 20th birthday! I have to say I am way more excited for this birthday than last year. I'm not sure what the exact reason for this is. I have not asked for anything for my birthday, so it is not the prospect of a great gift. Although I could think of a few things that would be great to receive. (Maybe my parents finally saying yes to a trip... I know, not gonna happen.) It could be the fact that I will no longer be a teenager. Thank God! It's just too exciting.
I really want to get together with my some of my closest friends and celebrate this birthday. Maybe that's why I'm excited. Who knows. I guess we'll find out in two weeks!

Missing Bernice
Oh I forgot to mention. My very best friend is at Oxford and I miss her terribly! I want to go visit her sooooo bad but I have the ridiculously over protective parents that won't let me leave the state let alone the country! It would be so fantastic to travel to Paris with her but my parents are dream crushers. I can only count down the days until she comes home and I can have my Bestie back!
Random updates
Wow it has been a long time since I've updated! Time really does just fly by. Well let's see, what's new with me? We'll start with school.
The fall semester is half over and I am sooooo excited. Some days I enjoy my classes and others I can't wait to go home! My first class is intro to painting. I am currently on my second canvas. Painting can be very relaxing if you have some idea of what you are painting. I have no idea what I'm doing other than slapping some paint on the canvas. I just go with it and hope it turns out recognizable.
My second class is Digital Photography. Most days I love this class. I am very familiar with my camera and already knew a lot of good techniques. I really like the fact that we are learning a lot about photoshop. Again I already know some things about photoshop. The one thing that frustrates me is the stupid people that don't deserve to be in the same room as me. It is not difficult to use this program. You should only have to be told something once, not three times, before you can figure out how to use the program. It's not rocket science! Stop making it difficult!
Next we have my least favorite, Advanced Drawing. I never look forward to this class. I am only taking it because it is required for my degree. I do not possess the capabilities to draw something as I see it. I try hard but it never comes out right. I will not be surprised if I fail this class.
My Tuesday morning class is Graphic Design I. This ones going ok so far. There's not too much to complain about this one.
And last but not least we have Fundamentals of Communications, online. Yes that's right, I said online. I have three theories for how this class is going so far. One: all the students in the class are completely retarded therefore making my teacher think I am a total genius. Two: My skills as a writer are so awesome I do not have to make an effort. Three: my teacher is on crack. I'm really leaning towards number three. Here is why I think this. I have turned in numerous papers, all of which I have bull shitted my way through, and have received a 100%. I know how well I can write and these papers do not reflect even 25% of the ability that I have. I don't understand her grading. I cannot wait until this semester is over!
Work on the other hand is still going well. I am now officially a closing manager. This basically means that I do the same job I've been doing except I get paid 75 cents more. Whoo hoo! About two weeks ago I was given another responsibility. I now order all the gum and candy. It's pretty easy if you know what you're doing. The social side of work is still a little shaky. I know that I am a well liked person at work. The feuding is still going on between me and another girl. This doesn't really bother me at all because I will never want to be friends with that backstabbing bitch again! The good thing for me is that the majority of the people are still my friends and have taken my side. I did not ask for anyone to take my side. It is very comforting to know that these people have my back. They are like my second family and I will never take them for granted.
Unfortunately I am still living at home. Most days I survive but others I can't wait to have a place of my own! I keep telling myself just one more year and I'm out.
There is also nothing new on the boys aspect of my life. There is a guy I work with everyday that I am interested in but am too chicken to do anything about it. If things continue at this rate I will be single my entire life.
And on a final note I turn 20 in less than a month and am very excited!
