Less Than a Month

In less than a month I will have begun the time of my life at A&M!! I can't wait. It has been a while since I have posted and really nothing is new with me except for my AWESOME new job. I am working as a waiter at Steven's Street Grill now. I HAD to leave Sonic. Never work there, ro atleast not in Decatur. It was terrible. I am loving Steven's Street and I will be sad to leave it in 26 days :(. Some sad news, one of my good friends Cara Sylvester is in the hospital. She has leukemia and is having trouble finding a bone marrow match. I want to get tested but my family won't let me because they say they don't know the side effects and that I need to think about myself in this instance because I will be starting school soon. I don't know what to do. Speaking of my family they decided to take a vacation to Chicago this week, so me and my Grandma stayed home and we are just chillin most of the time. It's weird without constant noise. It's okay though. Well that is the past two weeks in a nutshell. I am in a hurry so I have to go. Take care -Me.

Just Going...

Things are going.....I started working at Sonic yesterday, and I really don't like it but I guess for now it will do. Armando's also called me and I had an interview this morning. If I get the job I will start on Monday. I feel bad starting a job then leaving when I leave for school but hey don't know that. I still miss all my UB friends!!! I am going to try and get my tatt tomorrow if given the chance and I'm not busy. I really don't have much to write about. I'm just bored and ready to go to A&M!!!! Let me know how y'all are doing. Later....Me

Home Sweet Home?

Well I am back in Paradise now. I quit my job on Sunday so now it feels like I am wasting each day. I miss Upward Bound SO much. I am excited about going to A&M (WHOOP!) but I wouldn't have minded having another week of Upward Bound. What am I going to do without my girls? I had so much fun. I have been job hunting. I think I have applied at like ten different places, and at four I have an interview at Sonic here in Decatur. I guess it'll do for a month and a half. I went by the Marine recruiting station earlier this morning and Staff Sergeant Jones has my picture on the Marine wall. He has a wall for everyone about to go to boot camp, for everyone in bootcamp, for the people who quit the Marines, and for those who can call themselves Marines. Since I am going to school first I get enlisted differently, and I become a Lieutenant something or other. I'm not sure exactly how it works, but I don't feel like I have had to really do anything to call myself a Marine so I am not going to until I complete Officer Candidate School or Platoon Leadership Class, or something. Nothing else has been going on. Hopefully I will get a job and make some money before I head off to school. I miss all my UB friends and I hope they are doing GREAT! I love you all, and keep in touch. Semper Fidelis -Me

My Weekend

Well, my weekend was okay. I went home Thursday and my aunt and uncle suprised me with a new laptop for my birthday. It was pretty cool. Then Friday I went and got a cell phone. I've gone through so many phones it's incredible, but now I am paying for this one so maybe I'll take better care of it. I did not get my tattoo this week end because Saturday my family and I went to South Texas. We went to the National Basillica in San Juan, we went across the border to Mexico, and then we went to Corpus Christi to the Gulf. It was fun and we got home last night. We didn't do the whole firework thing this year which was a bit if a bummer, but it was alright. I enjoyed getting to spend time with my family. Now I embark on thew last week of Upward Bound, which means: finals, tears, goodbyes, dancing, etc. Hopefully it will be fun and we'll make some lasting memories. I'm gonna miss it though. Until next time, Me
