HMMM, TOO MUCH WORK!
Hi everyone! I haven't written in forever. I've been soooo busy. I've switched jobs - went from nannying to kicking it as a receptionist at the beauty salon. HA! I have to work the cash register and answer phones. Not toooo bad, but its a step up from watching elmo and "where's spot" all day long. I didn't even get a break in between the two jobs. Stopped working with the kids on a friday and early early monday morning, i was at the salon training. TOOO MUCH! I'm out of here in a little over a month. So thats good. Everyones finally starting to come back for vacation. I'm seeing lots and lots of Kinnick people. :) Its cool. The packers came and took most of our stuff so we're stuck with all this uncomfortable furniture for two months. CRAZINESS! Thats pretty much it! Later!
Something Keri sent me:

long time no blog. its been a busy busy busy couple of weeks. lets see, first it was finals for a couple of my classes. i must say - i did a lot better this semester than first - 4 a's and a lovely b. well not really. but really - the two math classes - how simple can it be. my mom got to orlando on the 22nd. so we hung around there. she helped me pack all my stuff in the dorm and move out. then we shopped all over orlando looking for clothes for her (the variety in japan is sooo not good) and new apartment stuff for me. i got this great some bedding set. my new comforter is purple! its great! not that ugly bright purple but a dark - very nice looking :). my plans for my room in the apartment is purple and black. so all the new stuff is just that - either purple or black. got some chenille pillows and blankets - soooo soft! its great! then we headed up to chicago for another week. no computer there so i was about to die. my fingers were cramping up from a lack of not typing. ;P just chilled there too. it was quite boring. we'd head to a restaurant with all my grandparents.. and aunts and family. there was a huge age gap between me and all of them. i think the closest person to my age was my mom.. still some 20 something years older! and now, i'm back here in yokosuka. very excited about that. good flight - it was pretty empty. donald met me at psd so that was really sweet then i hung out at his house for a couple hours before heading back here to sleep.todays the 8th - another anniversary! 18 months. its incredibly hard to believe its been that long already. tomorrow, i start working as a nanny for a 5 month old and a 2 year old. should be exciting. :) lol. we'll see! by the end of the day, i may be wishing i didn't have this job! lol. more updates later!

another uneventable day.. more like weekend. saw a movie on friday night called "phone booth" - pretty good. i'd recommend it. then saturday, we went to the mall where i should tell you, i did not buy one article of clothing. aren't you proud! jeez, i even had some 86 bucks burning a hole in my wallet from the books i sold back. but yes, i was good. then on the way back, we all stopped at target to pick up some of those face masks.. you know.. the cool neon blue and yellow ones. supposed to take away stress. lets see how it works later! haven't done much of anything on this easter sunday nevermind, let me say that a little differently.. i didn't do a thing today. i watched lifetime channel movie after another. i know, how sad is that. oh well. my mom gets here on tuesday, then all the fun begins, packing and moving stuff and packing and wait.. did i say lots of packing. yes yes, i believe i did. ups and downs with donald today. but hopefully it gets better. sometimes, i don't think he realizes how much i care about him. long distance isn't easy. i knew that coming here but we've made it so far.. it's gonna be ok. hi to everyone that i haven't been able to talk to lately. with school finishing up, i find myself wanting to throw this computer out the window. maybe i'll do that someday. this is the end of me for tonight. love all. :) aims

story time.
i have a friend. we'll call her "bertha". she had a talk with her mom today and she made "bertha" mad. its times like this when "bertha" really hates school here and she gets sooo mad at her mom. she never understands anything "bertha" says. all she says is "do this, do that" and she never even once considers whether or not "bertha" am happy here. because lets face it, "berthas" not happy at all right now. she hates it. but its like, she won't let her leave and she soooo would be gone by now if she would of just once listened to bertha. ok. *aimee has tears.* [from an e-mail to onny: sometimes you get angry at your parents and wish you had some like mine but i don't wish that on you ever. how did i get the crap end of everything. both my brothers get everything they need. jay had a car when he went off to college. its not my frickin fault he messed up. josh is constantly in debt and asks for money that he forever says he will pay back.. hes on his third car now. katie is the baby of the family that gets everything. shoot, look at her, shes a junior and she drives wherever whenever she wants too. not only that but my mom sends her all the way over to me so she can go shopping for a week. on top of that, they are already talking about getting a house down here in florida so that if katie comes to school here, they won't have to pay so much for her housing and stuff. do you not see a problem with that. for this past year, i have been almost totally on my own in respect to paying for school and getting around. the minute katie says she MIGHT want to come here, they start discussing a house. am i missing something or am i getting the crap end of everything. i can't think of a thing that i can say i've gotten that me siblings don't have. but now, the minute i bring up a car.. she gets all mad, saying my GRANDMA never had a car and she had 10 kids. what kind of crap is that to support a reason for me not getting a car. gosh, i've always been the half way good kid too. i never get in trouble.. i get good grades and what do i get for that. seems like nothing to me. ok. i will soooo stop complaing now.
all i know for sure right now is that i love you now and i'll love you forever. thank you baby. just the thought of you getting on soon makes me smile. :) i love you. i'm sorry for just typing all that mess. i love you and i really miss you. i can't wait to get home to you.. i need an onal hug!! ]
have a GREAT FRIDAY everyone! Just a few more days for all of us.. who gave up something for lent. Hang in there! 4 days till my mommy gets here! i don't know why i even bother will classes anymore cause i go and i can't stay focused for anything. today's big task.. take back my textbooks that i didn't use. unfortunately i only got some 86 dollars for 3 books but hey, thats good enough for me. i can get some new shoes now. :) since my mom is coming all the way to florida to see me and help me move and she won't even buy me a pair of shoes. psh. i don't think so. she just thinks shes going to get away with not spending on me. its funny. she must be dreamin'! 10 days till i move outta this place, 18 days till i'm back in japan. i think i say that everyday. seriously, it's getting to the point where i have got to get out of here. class today.. finite and speech. this one gal gave a speech about how horrible this one apartment complex is. scaring me about finally moving into an apartment next year.. already have the lease signed and everything. now if only they could find my darn paperwork :O been searching for a car lately. i'm really looking forward to this summer job.. if only i can get it. please please please. this one lady that my sister used to babysit for is looking for a nanny. hahah. if she doesn't find one by the time i get back. the job is soooo mine. and i could sure use the money. easy job.. easy money. what could be better!
