The only thing that makes working 75 hours a week worthwhile are my paychecks.

I am very pleased with myself. Eventually I will be running the store when my boss opens up another one. It will be nice when I’m able to go back to school for Cosmetology because I can make my own schedule. But for now, I am working two jobs, around 65 hours a week. Crazy!

I hope to:

-Be graduated from beauty school and working as a cosmologist.

-Be married (:

-Possibly have a baby/be thinking about babies

-Improve my credit

-Not be living in Pennsylvania.

-Have my own cute little “starter home”

It’s so crazy because a lot of that will actually probably happen. Hopefully, God willing. Five years seems far away but it’s really not. I know I’m supposed to live in the moment and all that jazz.but I really can’t wait to be in my late twenties.

where the only thing missing a nice, serious relationship with a wonderful boy? Welcome to my life. I am so beyond happy with everything. I have a job that I LOVE. I am doing very well in school. I know exactly what I want to do with my life. I am moving into a new house with two amazing roommates. I have wonderful friends that treat me like family. I have wonderful family members that love me. I am leaning on God and gettting closer to Him. I am happy with myself as a person. Everything is falling into place.perfectly. The only thing I’m missing is an adorable boy that makes me laugh and gives me butterflies. I know, it will happen eventually. I’m just ready for it now.

I’m going to be manager at work! I’m so excited! My big boss was in today and I met him for the first time. He loved me and could not get over how well I’m doing. I’ve only worked there for a month, but he said I am possibly the best worker they have! I can’t believe it! He said I’m very driven, have great people skills and work ethic, and I’m a very pleasant person. This means more money, more responsibility, and more hours, but I can handle it. I am just so proud of myself. This is such a big accomplishment!

I’m getting.more hours at work. Which is both amazing and terrible because I already work full time, so now I’m getting like ten more hours. I already don’t have any time for anything. But, I need monies so it’s worth it.

I really can’t handle when people who don’t work or only work part time complain about having to deal with school.

How are you “busy”? Try working full time, and then some, and going to school full time. Then you can complain to me about having homework. Your fifteen hours a week at Walmart can NOT be that much to handle.

I don’t even know how to handle the stress in my life right now. It is tearing me apart mentally, which takes a toll on me physically.

I had to quit my job in order to go to school. I found another job, but it pays less and is not giving me the hours I need. I need to make at least 600 dollars a month just for bills alone. That’s not counting money for food, toiletries, other expenses, etc. I haven’t even purchased all my books for school yet. I have absolutely no money. And when you don’t have anyone in the entire world to help you out in that area, it can become just a little bit stressful. My financial aid isn’t even completed yet. Just so much going on. I need so much money for so many things.

My dad always tells me to join the air force, and I’m at a point where I’m considering it. I don’t know what else to even do…

I wish I had parents that I could live with. That didn’t live out of state. I wish I had that option. Most people think I live on my own because I want to, when in reality, it’s because I have to. I don’t have the luxury of having a family. Never have.

I am just so stressed out right now. I want to cry but I won’t let myself. I make myself mad just to stop myself from wanting to cry.

I just don’t know what to do. I wish I had normal 20 year old things to worry about. For once, I would just like to feel like a normal person my age, and to not be in this all by myself.

I am so sick of hearing/seeing people complain about college. See, in high school, it was okay if people complained, because they had no choice but to go to shcool. But college? College is different. You are choosing to go there. You are paying to go there. No one is forcing you. You can drop out if you want. You do not have to go and sit in class, or do your homework, or even be enrolled in college unless you make the choice to do so. So it really bothers me when people complain about it. Especially when there are people, such as myself, who are constantly stressing over how we’re going to pay for college, or being able to go at all. And then there are people who have college handed to them, and they just don’t appreciate it. Few things ruffle my feathers as much as an ungrateful, spoiled person. I appreciate college, not only because I happen to love learning, but because I was unable to go for the past year and a half when that was all I wanted. I know that I need to go to college, and that I’m too intelligent not to go. So don’t sit there and complain about having to write a paper when you’re the one choosing to go to school. Why don’t you try living on your own, working a dead-end job, and then maybe you will appreciate the chance to get an education you spoiled, immature, lazy, ungrateful child.

It makes me happy. And, I don’t think I could tolerate working with adults who think they know everything and are rude and arrogant and will just annoy me. Kids don’t know any better. And if you impact them at an early age, they will carry it with them forever. Plus they are cute. I just don’t know exactly what I want to do. But at least now I have some “direction” :)
