How Long Has It Been?

I know that I posted something for the month already, just nothing since Friday at least.

First off, my birthday turned out ok. I now know that I don't like TGI Friday. The waiter was more interested in talking with my sister-in-law. Phillys asked for an alcoholic drink. There wasn't any alcohol in it, and I wouldn't really call it a drink to start out with. One stake showed up bleeding and was sent back. My first order was completely wrong, and was sent back. Then I had to send back what I really asked for, because I wasn't told that it was half made out of jalapeno peppers. I couldn't eat more than one bite of it. We didn't leave a tip, then went to see a movie.

I watched National Treasure 2. I liked it. It was so loud. Then when I came outside, everything seemed so bright. When I got out of there, and called Phillys and Jhodie to see where they were, it was already after 1 am. As we were heading to the subway, Phillys decided to head over to BBQ's to get something. I got my new combo. Tempura and chili. Phillys got some chicken something, and I don't think that Jhodie got anything.

We got home like an hour and a half later. We had to take the local all the way from 42nd St or so.

Earlier, we went shopping for some new skirts and pants to go with the tops I got in NJ. I got about 4 or so. I already forgot, since some of what I tried on went back.

We were suppose to leave earlier than we did, but I was under the impression that we weren't going anywhere until sunset. Phillys and mommy got into a small fight over that. As SDA, you aren't suppose to do anything between sunset Friday and sunset Saturday that isn't God related. So when we were growing up, the tv was turned off before sunset for us to welcome the Sabbath. We would read the bible or read our book for Sabbath school. Most of the time we were just sad/upset and went to bed. Then the next day we would feel sick so we wouldn't have to go to church and watch tv. My mom says that she doesn't remember us pretending to be sick to stay home. I knew she knew some times back then. She would say that it was the devil keeping us from going to church. No, it was a kid to didn't like hearing about how we were going to die and all that stuff. Once in a while I didn't mind going back to church in the afternoon for Pathfinders. It's like Brownies or Cub Scouts, just heavy on religion with all those other actives thrown in.

Either which way, the point I was trying to get at, was that here was Phillys who was going to go shopping before sunset. Ya, we aren't suppose to do any shopping or cooking on Saturday. I bring up cooking because I started to make some oatmeal cookies on Friday, and ofcourse it was dark. The sun sets at 4:30. Mom told me not to do any baking on Sabbath. That cooking thing is just up in the air, and a little wrong, but I didn't fight it completely. I just finished mixing up everything then put it up in the fridge. I had Jhodie bake them for me on Monday.

Speaking of Monday, I stated classes. I got there on time, I got everything settled, and such. I paid for my book, $40. During the second part of the day I paid $1 for one of their high lighters. I was thinking of getting a set from OfficeMax, but I just wanted to go home so I spent the dollar. I spent more than I wanted on lunch. But I had $10 on me and felt so rich. So I spent half of it on a drink and a turkey sub.

Monday and Tuesday I sat next to the same people, but one didn't come back from lunch yesterday and today he wasn't there. I showed up "late" today so I didn't get my seat that I was using before. It also seems that after lunch my body starts to shut down and I fall asleep. Tonight I'm going to bed around midnight if not sooner. I was so out of it for the last half of the day today. I don't even want to know what I looked like, but it was cold, and I tend to hibernate if it's too cold for me.

Oh, Rapid Realty has talked to us a bit for two days now. They are going to take us up to Rochester to take the state exam this Tuesday. We have to be at the office for 2am. It's a 5 hour trip. We are aiming for the 9am test time, but incase anything goes wrong we have a 1pm test time we can take. They seem to be very willing to help us do this, since they are branching out and need agents.

I think it might work out. I just have to learn how to study and cram at the same time. The school's test is "harder" as in, it has more questions, then the state exam. The school's exam is this Saturday. Ya.

Well, I'm going to have a nap now, so I don't fall asleep while I'm trying to study, then study tonight. I realized that I may know more than I think I did, because I took some of the end of the chapter questions while I was awake today, and I knew most of them. They were from yesterday. I just have to go over that last chapter or 2 from today that I wasn't really awake for, and maybe look at the next chapter, and I'll be good.

Today was the first time I took the train all the way there. I'm not doing it again unless I was late like today. It hurt my hip somehow. I rather take the bus. I get dropped off, 3 buildings from the school. The train drops me off at 17th St. The school is between 20 and 21st St and a block up a hill. That is what hurt my hip. Forget about the biting cold, it was the hill that was twice as long as the other side of the block. Today I got to see how many of use were being sponsored by the company. My friend didn't show up today. I was looking forward to seeing him today. A girl with us had gotten his number and had called him to find out what was going on, but he never answered his phone.

Today we were asked to show up at the office to see the partner and I was planing to go by this place on the way back by bus, but I didn't want to go back up the hill. I so I just took the subway back home. I stopped off at the pizza place up the street and got some garlic knots. I hate the cold. I keep feeling like one of these days my nose is just going to start bleeding. It's this weird feeling I get when I'm in the cold for too long. I think I'm just breathing too hard, and it's cracking the inside of my nose.

Ok, I may not go to sleep. I'll just take the book with me, and sit in bed with it and watch some tv at the same time. If I fall asleep, I fall asleep and I may not sleep in class tomorrow. I did learn that we will have something of a review on Friday. Good, I'm going to need it.

I think I covered most of it. Oh, Jhodie is saying that she is quitting KFC next week. If things work out, I will start working the same time she quits.

Well it's after 7pm now.

See ya.
