Currently: Bored on a Saturday night...and unfortunately, I don't think i'll be able to get out and have some real fun for awhile. No, starting Monday the 28th Fieldwork will own my life. Great. But life isn't all about fun, right? Anyways, will most likely call it a night early tonight and get up early tommorrow morning, shower, and go run some errands. Then tommorrow evening i'll be in bed by 9 pm, since I plan to wake up at 4:30 the next morning. Wish me luck, all.

Currently: So, it is now only THREE days until I start my first Fieldwork II rotation, which means that this is my last weekend of freedom for awhile, haha. I don't know if my uncle will be up for going out tonight, because ever since we got back from Connecticut following my cousin (his daughter's) graduation, he's been down the dumps. We shall see. But even if I don't go out tonight, I won't make a big deal of it, since i'm already so hyped and excited for next week. So I wouldn't mind settling for watching television re-runs and studying tonight, haha. Oh boy. I actually just found out (via facebook, of course) that one of my classmates already started her fieldwork rotation this week!!...oh so coincidentally, she is also the daughter of our Physical Disabilities professor/Fieldwork coordinator, so OF COURSE they're going to give her a head start. She had just written on facebook though, that she is already about ready to go into her second Fieldwork II rotation in Florida...so I am assuming from that, that things aren't going so great for the little Princess. Sucks for her, haha. I just have a good feeling about my Fieldwork site, so i'm not even panicking at this point. I'm just so...EXCITED!!!= )

Currently: I've just spent the last couple of days in Connecticut at my cousin's and it was nice. Right now I am just really unhappy...for numerous reasons, of course. Way to start my final week of freedom before fieldworks start, eh? I just find myself constantly thinking about and going over things. It is good that I am more contemplative than I used to be, but at the same time, I also feel like that is what is making me more internally depressed. Blah. Either way, today i've got some errands to run. I've got to call back the insurance company of the Sanitation truck that hit my car (or fuck-face father dearest's adopted car) two weeks ago. I also have to possibly fax them the estimate I received just the other day. I then have to lookover some Fieldwork material and finalize some things if need be, continue to study, and continue looking at possible Bus and Train routes for next week. I just have to continue to carry on and roll with the punches...I will continue to do so as always, but at the end of the day, I still hate my life. And unfortunately, it will probably be like this for awhile. Hey, I may even see a few greys in my hair before anything gets better.

Currently: It is soooooo beautiful out today! If I weren't so broke, I would have gone on another one of my thirsty thursday outings!...but unfortunately, that is not happening today. So for now, i'm going to continue studying for my fieldwork placement (which is now only ELEVEN days away!) and as well continue to look at fast and cheap bus and train routes that I could make to and from work once I start. Hey, it's good to think ahead. Anyways, tommorrow I will be spending my day doing the same thing and making some phone calls...and thankfully, later on my uncle and I are going to Glo again. At least i'll have that to look forward to. In other news, this African guy that I met at the club not too long ago keeps calling and texting me, asking when he'll see me again...eventhough I keep ignoring him! He is so annoying. I do not like when guys are TOO persistent, and after that Jose saga, i'm really not in the mood to be dealing with anybody at this point. This morning, he (meaning African dude) even called me from another number, and when I answered the phone, wouldn't say anything until I hung up. I know it has to be him. I could be wrong, but with the way he's been acting, he's the only culprit I could think of. I repeat, he is fucking annoying. Anyways, moving on...

Currently: Last night I saw a show in the city called "Fuerza Bruta," and it was amazing! I enjoyed every single moment of it; just as I had expected. It is a very interactive show, with the crowd standing instead of seated, and we were encouraged to dance along with the music, interract with the cast, and participate in some of the skits. The cast members even came into the audience to participate alongside us; towards the end of it, I even got a kiss on both cheeks from one of the performers! Absolutely amazing. But that wasn't the only amazing thing about this show. It is also an aerial show, with the performers gliding and flying a couple of feet over the audience, and half way into the show they bring in a plastic stage overhead filled with water, and the performers continue to glide and swim and dance on top of it...it's hard to even explain this show! And the music! Don't get me started with the music! It was amazing and heart-pounding...like I said, it is hard to explain a show such as this in words, so I encourage anybody who is reading this to go see it. Seeing this show last night definitely lifted my spirits. As for everythingelse, I hadn't heard from Jose since our half-assed date last Sunday...and I haven't attempted to call or text him either. He's just another stupid, ignorant man, and is a waste of my time. So that's that. Now I just have to focus on making sure I am confident going into my Fieldwork placement, which I start in 16 days. I feel i'm doing well in that alley though. I will also be going to Connecticut with my uncle for my cousin's graduation...she's about to become a certified LPN! I'm so proud of her. And, hmmmmm...what else? Oh, and it looks like I will no longer be able to join Curves...something came up, and it looks like I won't have the means to join. So right now i'm going to try to just follow a healthier diet and not stuff my face with the nasty fatty foods that I am oh so in love with...it's going to be hard, but because i'm a little more level-headed than I used to be, i'm confident that i'll be able to pull it off. I've been following a healthy diet for a couple of days now, and my body's already feeling better and more refreshed. So for now, i'm just going to use today to relax and kick back a little bit...this week was just CHAOTIC for no reason, but I got through it, so Cheers!

Currently: Today has been productive thus far. This morning, I went to the Doctor so that she could fill out my required Physical examination form for my first Fieldwork. That went well. Afterwards, I came home and called up the Sanitation truck that hit my car's insurance company right away. The representative was very nice and cooperative, so I got to make my claim with no problems or complications. Later on, I also have to fill out a claim form for the DMV, because I will most likely need more than $1,000 to replace my front bumper. Bleh. But on the bright side, i'm getting shit done. Right now i'm just not looking forward to having to go back to that same auto body shop that fixed up my trunk last summer (if you don't recall, one of their trucks hit me from behind on my way to work) to fix this problem. I chose to go back to them because they're the only auto body shop that I know of that's close to where I live and they did a pretty good job with my trunk. If i'm lucky, they won't remember who I am and I can go in and out without them being like "oh wait...isn't she THAT GIRL from last year that we hit and had to fix up for FREE???" I guess i'll just have to wait and see. ANYWAYS, after my physical this morning, i've also decided that I need to join Curves, pronto! I weigh a whopping 169lbs and i'm only 5'3!...yea, not very healthy. Luckily, there is a Curves right by my house, so i'm going to make my way over there as soon as I have the means. And that is it, for now.

Currently: What a day today has been. This morning, my dumass father decided to park my car in front of a Stop sign across the street from our house, and because of that, a Garbage truck hit my car. Luckily, the damage wasn't too bad. But the front bumper is scratched up and a little broken. Although it was also the Sanitation worker's fault for HITTING my car to begin with, I also place some blame on father dearest for carelessly parking the car in front of a Stop sign to begin with! You see where my charity and good heart has placed me? I trust him with something near and dear to me and he just neglects it. What an idiot. And right now, as I type this, he's still driving around with my car (it is still driveable, luckily) and carrying on like nothing happened. All of this, and YET he'll find an excuse to say that I am the "selfish" one. But I have no choice but to take all of this shit. Either way, I have to find the number of their Insurance holder so that they could pay for the damage. I visited my insurance company today, and because of the type of insurance that I have (the cheapest under the sun), there's really nothing that they could do, unfortunately. So I have to handle this all with the Sanitation department. 'Gotta love my life. Oh, and to add to this, yesterday I hung out with Jose in the city and we saw "Get him to the Greek" together. It wasn't so bad if his big-headed ass didn't feel the need to down-talk me every chance he got. See, before we went to see the movie we stopped at a Pizza joint to eat because he was hungry. While there, of course we got to talking a little bit. First, he practically incriminates me for forgetting stuff he had told me while I was DRUNK and tells me that he doesn't like to have to "repeat" facts about himself. Oh, and it gets even better from there. He then goes on to insinuate that I am not a great kisser and follows that with "I could tell you were very sheltered," but then goes on again to say that i'm "Very pretty and very intelligent" and that is why he "likes" me. Um, okay? So I was gracious enough to still go see the movie with him cause I might as well have not turned down a free movie (he paid for the movie) at that point. And then during the movie, his phone goes off and minutes later he turns to me and whispers "They just called me for work, i'm so sorry I have to go...need money for the train?" I assure him that I don't need money, he kisses me goodbye, and I sit back and enjoy the rest of the movie by myself. What else was there to do? BLAH. But on the bright side of all this bullshit, I received my Diploma in the mail today. I am also going to go see a show on Thursday. So this week shouldn't be THAT bad...and better not be, or i'll shank a bitch...just kidding.= (

Currently: So...turns out I will be seeing the 38 year old again afterall. I had gone a week without texting or calling him...though he called me numerous times. Well, last night I went out with my uncle as usual. Before I even step out of the house, 38 year old texts me...his name is Jose, by the way. He asks me what I am doing and whatnot. I tell him that i'm going out to the same club we met at. So then he says that he is willing to meet me there. I figure it's not a big deal, since i'll be over there anyways and a lot of people go there. So hours in I don't get a text from him nor do I see him, so I assume that he will be a no show for the night. But then I step out for a smoke and there he is. We talk a little outside then go inside. He buys me a drink, we dance, and we kiss on the dancefloor. I enjoyed dancing with him. At one point I kind of jump on him and he picks me up and turns me around. It was cool. But then I had to leave. I left without saying goodbye to him, cause at that point I was a little gone. While in my uncle's car on our way back to my place, I caught a glimpse of my reflection in his side mirror and it was just...bad. I had this extreme glazed over look on my face and looked really confused. Once I get home, I decide to stay awake to wash my face, do a little walking around, and listen to some music so that I wouldn't puke or get the spins. At one point, I even PRAYED to God up above that I don't puke, cause i've never drunk-puked here at home and that would just be embarassing. So thankfully, I do not end up puking, but then wake up this morning with a bitch of a headache, and since my period also decided to grace it's presence today, a mighty bitch of a stomach ache as well. It was HORRIFIC! I was sick practically all day. I didn't even get to eat a real meal. I never want to be that sick again. And guess what? Yup, I ended up puking sometime in the middle of the day. Thankfully though, in my mother's eyes I puked from having my period and NOT from drinking. A couple ginger ales, Ramen noodles, and a little bit of rest later, I am feeling better but still a little weak. Jose wants to hang out tommorrow afternoon, and I think i'm going to go. I mean, it's not like i'm doing anything. So...see how that goes, I guess.
