8:55 pm - Apply EARLY for financial aid!!
|
Yeah, you know those signs you see all over campus. They actually mean that!!! You can get screwed if you don't. In the past, I have had no problem doing it at the last minute but this year....I really should have. My scholarship wasn't showing up in the school's system because of my previous college not reporting my grades the very first year I went to college after graduating high school. So basically it looked like last year was the first year I activated my scholarship, which isn't correct. It can be fixed but takes 8 days to report to the state or some shit like that. So...no scholarship = no school. I have to wait for Fall B to start in October. UGH! Fall B = Going to school Monday - Thursday instead of only Tuesday and Thursday = Not fun! Well, at least I know I can't screw around with financial aid stuff again, just in case something like this happens.
Besides all that, it has been a while since I have been on this thing to update. Clayton and I moved into our townhouse which is amazing! It's a 2 bedroom-2 bathroom with a study (or 3rd bedroom). I never realized how long it takes to actually get settled in a place. We want to do so much with all the space we have here but will have to do it slowly for the lack of money. :) We live in a complex that is graduate students or young families so we don't have to put up with the shit like Gainesville Place had. (I.E. Stupid freshman pulling fire alarms, being loud drunks right outside your door on a Tuesday night, or trying to hook up by yelling at people from their balcony) It's quiet, we have a pool, our own courtyard area, and the upstairs is a loft which is awesome.
Wal-mart has been all good lately. One of my co workers got arrested not too far back for printing money orders and then paying her rent with them. Stupid bitch. lol A management position was open and I was considering applying for it and everyone wanted me to but I decided against it. I don't think the extra stress with school would be a good thing. Especially now that I have to take Fall B which is a more condensed schedule.
I guess that's the update for now. Clayton and I are doing an In Living Color marathon tonight. :) Toodles!

3:18 pm - Oh how I neglect my journal in the summer
|
Hey friends...time for an update.
My trip to Charleston was awesome as usual. Clayton's mom is always so sweet and got me an amazing Crabtree & Evelyn basket set for my birthday. Good times were had. We went shopping in the downtown market where I bought a silver herringbone necklace, home made apple butter, and some delicious southern tea. I also got almost an entire new wardrobe from Clayton for my birthday right before we left. Yay for new clothes and 2 sizes smaller might I also add! :) The night before we left we went to an engagement/birthday part for Clayton's step brother Bart. All of us enjoyed Bessinger's BBQ and lots and lots of wine. Everyone had a good time and I got to meet more of Clayton's family.
Since I have been back from Charleston I have just been working a lot..school stuff...getting ready for the fall etc. Dealing with all the 18 year olds that are flocking into Gainesville right now. (I.E. Our buildings fire alarm was pulled at 5am 2 days ago and went off for an hour before the damn people here at Gainesville Place could figure out how to turn it off) We think it was this fucking fat asian kid upstairs who had already been keeping us up all night playing DDR or something where he stomped on the floor all night long. UGH! I'm really going to miss Alicia and Katie a lot when we move out of here. I don't hang with them too too much because I work and they don't but when I do, we have a good time. They aren't like most of the preppy bitches that live here in Gainesville.
Wal-Mart has been the same mostly. Ignorant customers who think they know more than the people who work there, lack of good management, new managers coming in who probably won't last long because they have to deal with Gerard (our Co-Store Manager who makes everyone quit), but I really don't care because I am still getting paid and laugh all the way through everyday at work with Jonquil and Quisha. I have learned to not argue with people returning stuff, just give them their money...hey, it's not my money and if you call management they are going to say do it anyway.
I have been missing New York a lot lately...I can't wait to finish school and get back up there...Clayton wants to go now. He is now fully ready and wants to move there too...which is good because even if he wasn't going to, I was. :) I miss Suzzy so freaking much. Clayton and I are talking about MAYBE getting a 3rd roommate except we don't know anyone we would want to live with and I'm like SUZZY!!!!! hee hee I just can't wait for my vacation time to kick in so I can go away and get paid for it.
I am going to a movie and Sushi with Alicia and Katie I think so toodles for now...
~Aubs
P.S. I think I am going to write a book...one where each chapter is titled after someone very important in my life and includes stories about me and that person....feedback on this idea please :)

2:03 am - **Sigh**
|
So finally after killing myself at work this week I am off for 5 days and going to Charleston, SC to be spoiled by Clayton's mom! :) Summer B starts soon so I will have to go back to a normal sleep schedule and juggling school and work.
I don't really have anything to put in this entry..just randomness.
"Rent" the movie comes out November 11th and I just watched the trailer which made me cry (GOD I am such a baby!) and I am so excited to see it when it comes out.
I have been planning my vacation to New York which is going to be fabulous because not only will it be right after I get my bonus check at work but it is also a paid vacation. I think I will be staying in the Howard Johnson at 34th and Broadway so I don't have to travel to Long Island back and forth and this way I can stay in the city as much as I want and as long as I want and just drag Suzzy back to the hotel with me :)
Umm let's see what else...Clayton has moved out of his house officially and is bumming it up with me and some others...mostly me and my apartment. His dickhead roommate didn't pay rent or bills for 2 months so Clayton just canceled everything because its all in his name and told the landlord he was leaving...he was the only one of the 3 guys that had been paying rent so she would rather just move other people in anyway she said.
I guess that's about it...I'll write again if I get inspired :)

9:02 am - Long time no see
|
Hey, hey, hey! I guess I once again have neglected you livejournal and I do apologize for that. Summer has been great so far. I moved into my new apartment at Gainesville Place and LOVE it here! I have been playing tennis, sitting by the pool, and hanging a little with my new roommates. I live with Katie (whom by the way reminds me soooo much of my New York Katie...its soooo sick), Liz, and Alicia. Liz and Alicia are sorority sisters which I NEVER thought I would be able to deal with living with sorority girls but it really isn't terrible. We are all 21 or 22 so that made me really happy that I didn't get stuck living with some 18 year olds who want me to buy them alcohol all the time or crap like that. So here we are in our cute apartment, 2 computer science majors, one agricultural science major, and me...the broadcasting major. We are all clean and neat which is really really good because otherwise I would have to kill someone. So stop bye, say hello....NOT without calling though. (Which brings me to my next topic to update......)
Ok, let me give you the stats on how I know this guy first. He works at Wal-Mart overnight (10pm-7am) with my friend Quisha's brother. So, he is friends with my friend's brother.....got it? LoL Anyhow, a few weeks back he started walking by the service desk all the time and Troy (my friend's brother) said to me one night "Hey my boy Anthony wants to 'holler' at you" So, I mean, this guy is cute, I was flattered but have Clayton. Moving on....we hung out a few nights together with the "Wal-Mart crew " (Wow that sounds lame but it is actually quite fun) Quisha, Troy, Anthony, Gene, Shawna etc etc etc He finally came out and asked if he could "be my man." I of course told him no because I have a boyfriend and he turned out to be a guy I probably wouldn't like in a boyfriend way anyway. He lays it on a little...wait no...a LOT thick. 28 missed calls in a day, text messages out the ass, inviting himself over to my apartment without calling or anything....just getting really really creepy. So then night before last he came to my apartment at 2:30 in the morning and knocked on my door asking if I was home. I don't know if he woke my roommate up or not but even so...WHO THE FUCK DOES THAT!?!?! Seriously, I would never go to a friend's house at 2:30 in the morning, when I didn't know if they were there or not or without calling or something. The other night at work I asked Quisha to please just tell him he is laying it on too thick to just be friends. (I was trying to just see if he could calm his ass down because I did like him as a friend) THIS GUY STARTED TO CRY AT WAL-MART IN FRONT OF PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!! He was like "I'm sorry" but then the next day is when he showed up to my apartment in the middle of the night. I hate the fact that he knows where I live now. UGH! Anyway, that's the drama in my life right now. Stalker at Wal-Mart!!!!
So I have worked the past week straight! This is going to be my 8th day in a row. I, thank God, am off tomorrow. My daddy is coming up to Gainesville to pick up the bed from my old house and he gets to see my new apartment.
I turn 22 soon! Ahhhhhhhhh!!!! Getting so old but feel so much younger than I did at 18 or 19. I am in school, living with a "student" apartment complex, working an easy retail job as opposed to when I was 18 and 19, busting my ass as a Blockbuster manager in New Jersey and New York, not in school, and living with Chad in a crappy apartment (well it wasn't really crappy but it definitely wasn't Gainesville Place) I am like where a 19 year old should be now. But that's fine I am starting to actually believe what my mom has told me about "Who cares how 'far behind' I am in school" I lived in NY and had a blast for a couple years. It's all good. And when I graduate I already have connections in NY in my field so I should be okay. I just can't wait to get back up there and the good news is...Clayton actually wants to move there now too!!!! He wants to be involved in the Wall Street market somehow. He also likes how it is just about the truly free est place in America. People don't care who you are or what you do and that's what I loved about up there. He actually cried to me the other day when we were arguing which he NEVER does and would kill me if he knew I put it in my journal (hee hee) but I felt like he didn't truly care about me for some reason ( I don't even know what spurred that thought...I hate PMS arguing...it always starts from something that doesn't even matter) He started to cry on University Ave. during like rush hour in front of Bank of America about how he wouldn't even still be in Gainesville if it wasn't for me. When UF wouldn't take him back he was going to go to South Carolina for the rest of school and live with his mom but instead he researched and found any colleges he could go to while living in Gainesville. That's why he is at Saint Leo paying ridiculous tuition because its private. He wanted to stay here with me until I am done! I LOVE THIS MAN!!! :) So who knows, in a couple years...Suzzy, you can come have dinner at Aub's and Clayton's apartment in NY!! OMG SOOOO AMAZING!!
I guess that is a good enough update for now. I am trying to plan my next NY trip now...Not too sure when it will be because of school and work but we'll see...hopefully sooner than later. I miss all of you so much!!

11:35 am - Almost time to move
|
So I finalized my sublease and everything for May through August!!! I will be living in Gainesville Place Apartment 208 this summer. I don't know who my other roommates are because all the girls I met there are subleasing too so, we'll see who I meet on the 1st when I move in. Anyhow, I am really excited...it's all furnished so I am either going to sell some of my stuff or try to get storage for the big stuff since it won't fit really. I am in the process of painting my room at Crysten's right now and it is a pain in the ass lol. I painted it dark reddish/pink when I moved in and loved it but never really thought about when I had to paint it back to white. I have the primer on the walls and it is covering all the reddish color so when I put on the "country white" no red should show through.
I just got back from Gainesville Health and Fitness. I am still really enjoying it there. I suggest to anyone who can that they should join. The program they have you go through really works. I have lost like 8 lbs. and a girl I work with has lost 10 since starting.
There is a lot of stuff I still have to pack and finish painting, and school stuff, and work, and the gym...so I should get on that lol. Later

2:14 am - Random thoughts update....
|
-Gainesville Health and Fitness is amazing! I want to go every single night just because it is that awesome. I have been working out 4 nights a week for 2 weeks and have lost 7 pounds now. I have mostly been doing "the line" which is a series of weight machines that I am suppose to do until "complete muscle failure," 2 mile jog, and 15 minutes of cycling each night and sometimes other stuff too.
-I only live with Crysten and Nora 3 more weeks and then am moving in with Clayton. Woot! The girls will be missed ...kind of. No paying rent all summer is also amazing!!!!
-Tomorrow night I am going out with all the girls from work. We might stop by the "party" my roommates are throwing before hitting up the clubs but we'll see....the "party" might not be worth any time. Whoever is downtown tomorrow give me a call 352-284-0812 and let me know what's up.
-I am watching South Park while writing this and greatly appreciate Matt Stone and Trey Parker for creating such a hilarious, politically incorrect, vulgar, and thought provoking show. I can't imagine life without Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny......ooooo and BUTTERS!!!
-I am looking forward to Summer Term...I know...I know....I'm a dork
-I miss Suzanne more than anything ever in my freaking life!!!!! I would even get molested by Santa Claus again to see you Suzzy!
-Have you ever not talked to someone you used to be friends with for a long time and want to say hello but didn't know if they wanted you to say hello? LoL Am I making sense??
I guess that's it right now...I should get some sleep

12:39 pm - April already?
|
I can't believe it is April. Time has flown by insanely fast this year so far. I guess my dad is right...he always said the older you get the faster time seems to slip by. This past week I joined Gainesville Health and Fitness center and I must say that I am extremely happy with the gym so far. I have a personal trainer who tells me what I need to do as far as working out and eating and the gym is open 24 hours. I love it! I can go work out at 1am and watch South Park while I run!!!! Each machine has its own TV which helps my TV addicted ass workout and not miss any shows :) I have lost 3 lbs. in 5 days!!! It's awesome! This is Clayton's last full weekend in jail. Yay!! He has this weekend and then Friday 6pm to Saturday 6pm next weekend. I will be so glad when he is done with this crap. Listen kiddies...don't ever get a DUI...you WILL pay for it for a while. Anyhow, I am getting a shower, working, and then chilling with some friends tonight and then I get to be back at Wal-Mart at 9am tomorrow morning. UGH! I never work that early. Ta ta

3:25 am - Blah blah
|
So this past weekend pretty much rocked my socks off. I went out with Shawna, Quisha, Whitney, and Britney on Friday night. We all went to Simon's after Shawna and I pre-drank at Calico Jack's. Simon's was packed and the DJ sucked major asshole. But all in all we had a great time. After the club we went to Denny's and then home. Saturday night we all went to Tyrone's house for a party which was extremely fun. I can't remember the last time I had that much fun. Tyrone is my hero! I work with him and all but never realized how amazing this kid is. Now it is the boring work week full of school and work...boooooooo. I am going to my first day of Gainesville health and fitness center tomorrow which I am very excited about! (Wow, all my lines of this entry are boring, nondeatiled, and to the point. I am really sleepy) Time to go to bed...I will write again when I have more energy to type something interesting.

5:08 pm - Getting better...
|
So I have been sick for the past week and a half. It really sucks. It might be a cold but I also found out a couple days ago that in Clayton's house there is a possibility of mold being in the A/C unit. We changed his air filter and when I saw the inside of the unit I was disgusted so, instead of sleeping there right now, its time to sleep at my place for a change. I can't afford to have mold in my lungs. Thank goodness we are moving into our new house soon. His place is sooooo old and ridiculously expensive. His poor mom is paying a fortune for that crappy house.
Last night I went out with Shawna, Hilton, and Quisha. We checked out Martini's and 238 but the crowd looked pretty lame so we ended up at Jewell's like always. It was a good time. I had to cut out on the after party though because I had to be up early this morning to pick up Clayton's car that was being delivered from South Carolina. (You know, because he is in jail on the weekends so...he couldn't exactly do it) He got a bronco for now. His dad found a Monte Carlo for him though and they are apparently getting a good deal on it so in a few weeks the Bronco will be traded in. I get it on the weekends since he has no need for it. Yay! I have a car on the weekends. Ohhh and I might have a scooter here sooner than I think. My manager at Wal-Mart is getting rid of his and it is more than the one I have some money on already but it is much nicer and he told me I can just pay him some like every pay day...so I am thinking about it right now. I am going to his place to drive it a little in a few days.
I move out of my house in about one month which is exciting but I have to find some way to paint back the room. I have to paint it back to a white/eggshell/beige color and I have it painted a reddish color right now. (Which is really dark) so...if anyone knows anything about stripping paint..let me know :)
St. Patrick's day is this week and I am VERY much looking forward to it. I have my "Kiss me I'm Irish" shirt and beads to wear...and plan on having lots of green beer. It's the first St. Patrick's Day without Pop Kelly and I must celebrate for him. : (
That's really all...I am waiting on Jade Gardens to get here YUUUUUUMMMMMMMMM!!! Their Hunan Crispy Chicken is AMAZING! Love, Peace, and Hair Grease

12:39 am - Went to the library on a Friday night...
|
No...not the actual library, a semi new club/bar in Gainesville. I got off work at 11 and Shawna (one of my managers) picked me up straight from work to go out. Shawna, Hilton, Jean, Demitris, and I all headed downtown to see what was up. We wanted to check out this new place called Rue Bar but it wasn't open. So we headed to the Library. It was alright....we got a free drink ticket. Girls dance on the bar like in little school girl uniforms and shit. We were only there for like 20 minutes and then headed out...the crowd was pretty lame. We walked down to Jewell's pool hall/bar/club and they were giving our guys a hard time about getting in with their "baggy" jeans. It was ridiculous! So Shawna knows the guy who owns the place...calls him up and we were in within 2 seconds. It was an alright crowd in there...Shawna and I spent some time at the bar together...talking, getting really trashed and telling eachother things that we have NEVER talked about together before (I mean we aren't that close of friends) lol Alcohol will do that to you. By the time we left there we were feeling like the best of friends. All of us then went to another wal-marter's house and had a little after party. Keg stands, riding around on scooters, etc. Good times...I got home at like 5 this morning...THANK GOD I DIDN'T HAVE TO WORK TODAY!!! Everyone else did. I woke up at like 2 ish and still felt like crap. So tonight I ordered pizza, watched lifetime movies, painted my toes, and took a verrrrrry long shower. Exciting Saturday night lol I know! Tomorrow I work and Clayton gets home from his weekend in jail. :) yay!!

12:39 pm - Just Chillen
|
So today I am as my subject line says "just chillen." Reading a little, playing some video games, going through peoples LJ's, and at the moment watching Clayton sleep. In my day of blah-ness and reading peoples xangas and LJ's, I have noticed how some people have changed so much since going to college. They have totally forgotten people who used to be a huge part of their life and conformed to this "college student" mold. It's really sad. But, through it all I am really glad to still have at least one of those people in my life....Suzanne. Thanks to Suzzy for being such a wonderful friend who is still there to talk to me when I have problems and just to chit chat and laugh it up when I drunk dial her. I have made so many new friends here in Gainesville but do wish I still had my same old friends in NY too...but I am lucky to still have Suzzy. And honestly, I would rather have her than the entire group that fell apart because of a lot of immature bullshit and backstabbing. So yeah...I just wanted to say that little bit...maybe more of an update later.

1:29 am - I really suck at updating
|
Hello to all 2 of my livejournal readers lol. So very sorry to have neglected you. :) I just got home from work and pointless shopping...well not all pointless, I got some stuff for me and Clayton's house. yay for house shopping 5 months early.
Everything has been pretty good. Work has been crazy busy. Everyone and their mama is getting income tax money and shopping their asses off at Wal-Mart. (which by the way is what I did tonight)
Clayton is at his weekend jail that he has for the next few weeks. Sucks....for those of you who don't know the story...he basically got screwed over for not finishing 1, yes ONE!! community service hour by his court date. There were a lot of holidays, school, and his job etc so he just didn't have the opportunity to squeeze in that one hour and got jail time for it. (He had community service in the first place for his DUI in 2003) Booooo for no Clayton on the weekends.
Valentine's day was fun. I got Clayton the new G Unit shoes. (50 Cent's new shoe...for those who don't know...and don't feel bad...I didn't know either) Turns out he needed a bigger size so took them back. They were out completely so he switched to the new Kevin Garnett shoes which I liked a lot too. He got me the typical flowers, candy, and my favorite bottle of wine (which was finished that night) :) Then we went to dinner at Cafe Gardens the next day when I was off work. Good times.
Ummm...so yeah...nothing else really exciting...just living...Spring B classes coming up ..yay for that. TTFN

12:01 am - Semi Update
|
So...I guess I will update a little. This week Clayton and I went home to Polk County for a couple days. We left Gainesville on Wednesday afternoon after Clayton got out of court for his final DUI hearing. We just hung at my house and later in the night went to Beef O' Brady's with Chad. It was a good time. Clayton and Chad drank..I was the DD which was actually kind of fun....watching my boyfriend and Ex Boyfriend drinking together. They actually were having a really good time. I was the one ready to go after a few hours. Chad went home and it was hard to say good-bye to him because he is moving to Ohio to live with his dad. He is selling his mom's old house and leaving Polk County...which, who can really blame him? I may get to see him again in a couple weeks right before he moves. Clayton and I went back to my parents' house with some wine and beer and watched a movie. I passed out...Clayton proceeded to somehow guide my half asleep ass into my sister's room where we shared a twin bed. lol Gotta love spooning. We slept really late the next day and only got up in time to run to Wal-Mart (can't escape that place) and get ready for the magic game. We left Bartow at 5:30 and still only got to the TD Waterhouse at 8:30...we sat on the freaking ramp exiting to the place for about an hour...it was crazy!!! Clayton and Mikey were so eager not to miss anything that they just got out of the car and walked down the ramp so they could get there faster. After the game, my mom, Carolyn, and Mikey headed back to Polk County. Clayton and I went to the Marriot Bar and waited for Paul (Clayton's best friend who lives in Orlando) and Tina (Paul's GF/Pregnant with his baby). We had a few drinks...not Tina of course lol...and headed back to Gainesville because Clayton and I had to be back Friday and Paul had court back in Orlando Friday afternoon. We all hung out, talked, watched south park, lit a fire in Clayton's fireplace with Lysol lol...then went to sleep. I had to work tonight...not too bad...we had some entertaining customers...as always at the 13th st. (Ghetto) Wal-Mart. But, we just laugh at them all...its the only way to be with retards. We even had this lady who was tripping on something...freaking out and laying in the middle of the floor...she kept talking about she needed to get her change for her Big Mac she just got ...and we were like "WHAT!??!" She thought she was at McDonald's and just ordered food. It was hilarious. But anyway...life is good..getting excited that it is almost February and I get to move in with Clayton soon...well in August but whatever! Yay! Our house is going to be so PHAT! Yes...P. H. A. T. lol 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms...10 ft ceilings...fenced yard!! YAY!! we can have a puppy!! I got my pictures from NY developed FINALLY!! Suzzy you will get them soon! PS LOVE YOUR ASS so much!!! And...that's all for now...I am a little sleepy...being a weeny tonight and going to bed on a Friday night early. Ta Ta

1:42 am - New Year Update
|
Happy New Year everyone! It has been one interesting year to say the LEAST. I moved from New York to Gainesville, got back into school, spent the year with Clayton, lost my grandfather, and just adjusted to life as a new person. Here is a rundown of things I learned in 2004:
***If someone is a total bitch...get them the hell out of your life. When just about everyone who gets to know that person hates them, you should know something has got to be up. I don't have time or care to deal with the drama..so I got out of that shit while I still had my sanity.
***People who you never thought you could be with in high school can sometimes shock you and later in life...you may find yourself in love with them...and moving in with them :) I love you Clayton!
***People who don't keep in touch after moving away aren't worth my time either. If you haven't bothered to stay in touch with me don't expect to hang out when I am in town visiting. So don't be surprised when I don't act too excited to see you when I am there.
***Wal-Mart is an AWESOME place to work for!!!! FUCK BLOCKBUSTER!!!!
And some advice for my readers for 2005:
***Get over the drama bullshit in life. People that constantly have drama in their life, create it themselves. Just grow up and deal with it...move on!
***If your friends are hiding things from you or you aren't being involved as much with them it's probably because they don't like you. Yeah, it sucks, but deal with it. Again...people need to grow up. They don't like you, sorry to say, make new friends...life goes on!!!
***Don't take bullshit from people! I don't get why people put themselves through so much. If you don't like taking crap from someone..get away from them. It's not that difficult of a concept.
So now to update...
Since I got back from New York, it has been a lot of holiday prepping. Present buying, decorating, etc. Clayton left for a week to see his dad and then to his mom's in South Carolina. He is finally back in Gainesville and we are going to start looking for apartments this week. He asked me to move in with him over champagne, it was super cute! I already told Caitlyn and Stacey that I would live with them in May, but they thought it was adorable that he asked me to live with him. So if we can compromise on a place it will be Clayton and Aubrey's in August. I just got off work and am kinda tired so ..that's all for now.

5:41 pm - Back from New York...
|
Ahhhh home sweet home...well Clayton's house right now :) I came here right after getting off the bus this morning so I could see my man that I hadn't seen for a week!!! SOOOOOOOOO much sick crap happened in NY it's ridiculous. OMG I know I am totally going to leave crap out because I just can't even believe how much shit went down lol
Here's a play by play:
**Wednesday**- I got on the bus leaving Gainesville at 9pm and actually kept thinking about how much I wanted to just keep the money I had saved for this trip and stay with Clayton for a week and shop a lot, but then I thought about seeing the city at Christmas time and Suzzy and all so of course I went. Stacey and Clayton took me to the bus station and Clayton waited for me to get on the bus and leave. I didn't really talk to anyone on the way up except one lady who was going from the Keys to Canada...more power to her...that's crazy. For the most part I slept on the bus and read the book "Belly Laughs" by Jenny McCarthy. It's hilarious (for us women) and I highly recommend it.
**Thursday**- I got to the city at like 8pm and went straight over to the theatre where Suzzy and Derek were waiting for me. Sonny had some Christmas party at his other job so we agreed to meet up later at the bowling ally. I was sooooo freakin happy to see Suzzy and yeah..Derek too ha ha ha. Suzanne and I were suppose to stay with Lianna in the city but then she ended up being a bitch nugget and saying she "was moving that weekend" PS Yeah right bitch..still don't believe you. Anyway... it was more fun not staying with her ass anyhow. Suzanne and I had to go through some crazy shit and were sick nomads in the rain with our luggage but we finally found a cheap hotel room over on 2nd ave. We got ready and headed back out. We of course went to Bar 41 where I saw my lovely Monica and Derek treated us to our first round of drinks. After that we headed over to the bowling ally where we met up with Sonny and a lot of other sick bitches. I love how people who don't bother to keep in contact think that they can run up to you like "OMG Hey I love you!!! etc" just because you are there to visit. So...those people don't get spoken to. Seriously...I go away..no one bothers to keep in touch..therefore...kiss my ass. :) That goes out to Lianna, Nicole (which I never liked her any God damn way) , and Jenna (who I used to love but not so much anymore)...ok..moving on. :) Suzzy and I sat there with Derek and Sonny and talked shit about everyone and how they have changed into crazy bitches...it was a good time. I love how some of these people think people like them like Sonny, Derek, etc whoever...and in all reality...they just "put up" with them. Some guy named Omar AkA Pantene guy kept playing with my hair and then moved on to playing with Suzzy's hair. And he guessed what kind of shampoo she used and everything...this guy was strange...so we all left with intentions of chilling at the hotel room. Derek was going to crash there because he had missed his train to NJ anyway. So we all head over there..including Pantene guy who wanted Suzzy so bad he could taste it...whatever...he paid for the cab. Ha ha Sonny and I walk in first and the Nazi at the front desk was like "NO GUESTS AFTER 10PM!!" So we made up some crap about him just getting something from the room and shit...anyway..this whole situation was confusing...to narrow it down, Suzzy and I ended up having to pay $40 more just so her and Derek could sleep in the room. Sonny got mad downstairs that he couldn't even come up and while Suzzy and I were upstairs, the front desk guy actually called the cops on Sonny and Derek for hanging in front of the hotel...CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS DICK!?!?! I went down and the cops didn't even care...they were like "have a good night" So George H came and took Sonny home and Derek, Suz, and I went inside to sleep...except not much of that happened considering Derek snores like a crazy bastard. All in all, my first night there was pretty damn interesting
**Friday**- Suzanne, Derek, and I went to get breakfast, which Derek paid for and then ate in the theatre while watching rehearsal. Derek pulled out the lotto table and made a little dining room thing going on right in the middle of the theatre that sick bastard. Whatever...breakfast with a little "Rent" in the background. After that, we went next door for coffee at Bar 41, talked a little, waited for the rain to calm down, and then Suzzy and I headed over to Macy's to see Santa. Santa was a crazy man!!!! He is some kind of child molester!!!!! He wanted us to hold his hands and look into his eyes and crap like that. Yuck...getting hit on by Santa! We got our picture with him and got the hell out of there. Then ate some good NY pizza. Back to the theatre area for some good times at Bar 41. Alice was there and I was so happy to see her. She reminded me of some funny shit that happened back in the day ahh...ha ha funny funny stuff. Love Alice so much!!! And she also told me how when I come back from school to see her because not only does she now work for ABC/Disney but her good friend is in charge of hiring for 95.5 PLJ in NY and is always asking her for people!! OMG! I was so happy to hear that. Back to Suzzy's house for the night where we celebrated my first Hanukkah.
**Saturday**- I was suppose to go to Jersey but ended up not ...again..every time I go up there I am suppose to visit Jersey and it never ends up happening so, Suzzy and I hung out for a while in her house...went to get amazing bagels on Long Island, and headed back to the city for Tiffany's , The Disney Store, FAO Schwartz (where we jumped on the piano like in "Big"), and Food Merchants food which is awesome! By the time we got back, we were suppose to make Hanukkah cookies but ended up just buying cookies at Food Merchants and eating them instead.
**Sunday**- (Notice these entries are getting shorter because I am so tired. I am leaving soooo much sick crap out but it's okay..Suz and I know what went down) Went to see Randi sing with her group from school. They were really really good. Then headed back to Suzzy's house this bastard hit us and then tried to blame us for it. UGH!! It's ok though..it wasn't that bad of an accident and her car is barely hurt. We even thought we could cover that shit up and not tell her parents lol. It's okay though...her mommy knows now and isn't mad. She stayed with her parents that night while I headed to Brooklyn to stay with a friend there. I went to hang with Sonny at Hallo Berlin where I was introduced to his friend George's cousin Cara. She is soooo awesome!! She works for Stuff Magazine and also told me that if I need a job to come see her when I am out of school. She and I talked all night and some crazy shit went down but...I'll stop right there with that. I treated to 4 or 5 TOO MANY shots and left this place sooooo drunk and alone because I just left and didn't ask anyone to come with me. I called people freaking out because I had to get back to Brooklyn.. If you are one of those that got a voicemail from me...I am sorry lol Anyway, made it back okay and passed out at Deanna's
**Monday**- I decided I wanted to leave today to go home to see Clayton. I said good bye to Suzzy and got my stuff from Deanna's house. Said goodbye to everyone at the theatre and then got to Port Authority only to find out, they wouldn't change my ticket. I was like what!!?!?!?!?! So anyway, long story short, I thought I was going to be stuck there not able to leave and then Sonny came to the rescue, got them to let me leave that night , we had a long talk before I left and then...on my way back to Florida.
Now I am back, tired , and not looking forward to getting back to work...but at least I am home. Toodles!

2:04 am - Work it out
|
So I just got home from working out...I love how I feel after going to the gym. Stacey and I went tonight, Caitlyn was in bed when we got back to their place after work so we just went without her. I leave for NY in 9 FUCKING DAYS!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG and I work like every single one of those days so, hopefully they will go by pretty quickly. And Melanie...if you are reading this, I need my pink shirt with the stripes back before I go to NY. I knew you were going to keep that shirt when I came home :) Anyway, things are good. I had a slight break down from working too much on Friday night. I just couldn't take doing the doubles anymore. I was on the phone with Clayton like crying my eyes out and just arguing about stupid crap so, Saturday I called out for my night shift and just opened at Blockbuster. I went to Clayton's to spent time with him and was later suppose to go to a cookout/party at Caitlyn and Stacey's (AKA My new home in May!!!) but ended up passing out at Clayton's house asleep. (Which I needed a lot) I then got to sleep in today, spend the whole day with Clayton and only had to work tonight from 9pm-12:30am Just to do some closing stuff and clean my section. After my breakdown Friday night I decided it was time for a little rest the remainder of the weekend. I feel good now. My room is clean, laundry done, I went food shopping, worked out, and got to see Clayton. Yay! Back on track lol Anyway, I suppose that is all for now. I should get a shower and some sleep before working tomorrow.
~Aubs
PS- Thanks to everyone who has been so supportive these past couple weeks with me adjusting to the two job thing for the holidays:
**Clayton** Thank you for loving me no matter what...even if I am screaming a crying on the phone that I can't take life anymore. I know we don't get to see eachother that often and I'm so sorry but that will all change in a few short weeks (when this two job crap is over) and we will have an amazing first Christmas together! I love you so much. "I'd die without you..." ~Rent (for those of you who don't know)
**Suzanne** I save all your voicemails because they make me smile when I feel like I can't anymore. I am so lucky to have you in my life and wish I could see you all the time. 9 days!!! OMG I can't wait.. We are going to have such an amazing weekend.
**Caitlyn and Stacey** You two are my workout buddies, partners in crime at Blockbuster, and two of the best friends I could ask for. Some people in Gainesville really suck a lot and I was lucky to have found you guys. I can't wait to move in over there in May!!!
**Mom** Thank you for e cards that make my day...day after day because I save them and look at them all the time lol
**Melanie** For listening to me cry, complain, laugh, and yell about anything and everything...I love you girl! Remember...you are beautiful and special ..and can always do better than what you give yourself credit for. I love you
current mood: thankful
