It's summer, but I'm working
This whole "holding down three jobs" idea is a prime example of just how STUPID I am.
Whatpossessed me to tell the Record that "yes, I can work full time," andthen tell DooWon that "of course I'd love to tutor your sister" andthen chicken out of quitting on underwear salesman?
Now I'mstuck having to write publicity emails for monogrammed thong! man, thenwake up early tomorrow to a) go running and b) figure out how toimprove mini Kim's reading comprehension in 2 hours.
In betweenall this, I need to get a haircut. I'm becoming more and more temptedto throw caution to the winds and say "chop it all off," but I know Iwill regret that decision for life. So if any of y'all see me in thenext few days, remind me that I have been trying (unsuccessfully) togrow my hair for four years. Now that it's the longest it's ever beensince 6th grade, I will not give it all up on an impulse!
Didsome college shopping with my mom. I've realized that the two of us areboth completely unstable when we're together. We got to the mallplanning to buy some books and CDs. Then my mom started talking abouthow much she's going to miss me in September, I started thinking abouthow homesick I'm going to be, and pretty soon we were buying muffinsand breaking out the tissues in the middle of GSP. I think my mom istrying to make up for my leaving by buying me everything I want andmasses of things I couldn't possibly need. She tried to take meflatware shopping (flatware, I ask you??), but was fortunatelysidetracked by the new fall window display in J.Crew. In we went. Andhalf an hour later, wallets lighter, shopping bags heavier, out wecame. It's the first time in my life that I have not enjoyed shoppingeven a little tiny bit. What's the point of having all these clothes ifI'm just going to wear them and be miserable at college?
*firmly pushes away self-pitying thoughts*
Iknow I'll love college once I get there and settle in. But at the sametime, I'm dreading how much I'm going to miss my home, family andfriends.
The only good thing about setting off in September isthat I'll have my own credit card. Or rather, my name will be on acredit card that leads directly to my parents' bank account. There's asilver lining in every cloud :)
