*PLEASE NOTE* This message is explaining the previous entry and adding more that was not there before :)
So...work...is...AMAZING!...I can't even tell you how much I love this job. The people are great and I could not think of a better way to spend my time. All of my managers are supportive of my slowness..haha..well, my learning slowness. The staff is just as supportive. I am, however, the baby @ work. I am the youngest person hired there. Yay for Kat.
You are probably wondering about the guy I met at the beginning of the summer. He was great, everything I wanted in a guy. I think, honestly, it was my fault we didn't work. I think he thinks I'm crazy. That's how that works. He was scared because I am an honest, open person. Ehh, whatever. I am okay with everything now. No big deal.
Band Camp is the epitamy of my summer. It is the worst week in the entire world. I hate this week. However, this year, is my *tear* final band camp. WOOT!!!!! I hate band a lot recently. I started to hate it after our Pirates year. The staff has changed so much, and I can't even begin to tell you how much the drama makes me mad. oh god. It's bad. I try very hard not to get involved. Sometimes, it's not that easy. I am a problem-solver. If I have beef, I let you know and we talk about it. Some people like talking crap behind other people's backs. I find that to be a negative way to run a 120-piece band. But then again, I have no say in anything because I am a senior who isn't as dedicated as others I have been told. So, All I have to say is, once it falls through, and I offered help and it was not taken, NOT my problem. I have nothing to offer you if you did not take my advice in the beginning. I want this year to be a GREAT year. We ARE going to Disney World this year, so I want our show to be one that sticks with people for a while...in the words of Dane Cook--"You F*c*ing Remember Me!"...That's how I want Methuen High School's marching band to be...a lasting impression. I, however, am a loser with no friends in band because I am just not cool enough. Oh well. I'm almost done!!
Which brings me to my next topic..SENIOR YEAR!!!!! It's going to fly by soo fast, and before we know it, we will be standing inside the stadium at 9 o'clock on a Thursday (May 31 to be EXACT) morning preparing to march in and be moved on to the next level of schooling...COLLEGE! woot..I can not wait until college. I will not have to deal with loser people who decide to create a huge dramatic scene EVERY TIME i talk to them. (Here I go with the band thing again...oy..)...but my final year of high school is going to be one that I will never forget. I am planning on filling up my 250 pictures memory card PLUS my 113 pictures memory card for my camera in about a week, then uploading them and moving on to the next week. I want to remember every second of my senior year, and hopefully, make a scrapbook next summer of it. Not that I am finished the one I started a million years ago. but whatever. I will finish it in time.
Speaking of time, I think it's time to have a moment. Today, being August 8, 2006, has a special place in my heart. 10 years ago today, my father had a heart attack at 33, and was told he was not going to make it. Dad, still around today, has had multiple stent implants, angioplasties, and finally, a bypass that has helped him in his fight against CHD. CHD stands for Coronary Heart Disease, and is genetic. Just recently, my grandfather (dad's dad) had a bypass in FL. He now has Parkinson's Disease and Non-Hodgkins Limphoma. There was no record of CHD in my family, until Dad opened that window. I love my dad so much, and thank God every day that he is still here to tell me that I am too young to like guys, too short, and stuff like that. It hurts sometimes, but I know that it is all out of love.
I think that's all for now. I am planning on getting back to writing almost daily, but no promises. I will try my hardest. Now I am off to attempt to start an online photo album where friends can see some of the crazyy pictures I have taken. That's all for now, however, so please feel free to comment on this or any of my entries, and thanks for reading.
