You Never Listen

I'm pretty nervous about money once again. I think there are like 10 days I can work in the next two weeks before we leave for Florida and I have almost no money saved up for the trip. I have my 70 dollar tax return, of course, but I'm going to need that for Chicago next weekend. What am I going to do? I need to make a lot of money at work, but I called today and they didn't need me. I'd call again tomorrow but we have the chorus concert and it's too risky that I wouldn't get out of work on time to be there. Same thing goes for Thursday with band. I guess I'll work Friday, early on Saturday, and Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday...or as many of those days as I possibly can. If I dry for a significant portion of three or more of those days I should be okay. And I can always work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and (even possibly) Thursday (Florida Trip Eve) if I really have to.

I'm excited, in any case, for the next couple of weeks. We're going to Chicago with jazz band so I'll be going farther west than I ever have. Florida is the weekend after that so I'll be going more south than I ever have. And we're talking about going to New Orleans over the summer to rebuild a church with youth group, so I guess that is more southwest than I've ever been. Broadening horizons is cool. I really like travelling. I hope we can go to Germany the summer after freshman year like we've been planning. That would be intense, although it might be a problem finanically (not just the expense but the not working aspect too).

I got accepted to Emerson, which increases the confidence level for NYU even more. I just don't get RIT. What didn't they like about me? Whatever. Their loss, right? Financial aid stuff for Emerson is supposed to arrive before April 1 and NYU's acceptances go out on the same day so I hope to know a little bit more about my future this weekend or early next week. My dad is really worried about the financial end. I hope things turn out okay. For both our sakes.

Right now I'm tired and un..inspired. Maybe more tomorrow.

Oh, and Eric started a journal. That's good news. He's got a funny mind.
