so today's a good day. i'm moving out soon, hopefully starting monday, latest may 1st :)

To celebrate, I bought a new bed today, since I currently sleep on my brothers because i took over his room. I think my parents junked mine when I left for college and my room became my mom's office.

i'm excited. things always seem to work out somehow.

i'm going to work through the weekend catching up on school. i have so much to do!! one of my prof's gave me the green light and said i'd be able to catch up on everything if i read all the stuff, turn in the paper, and post on all the discussions from past weeks. what an awesome guy. his name is david starr-glass. his name sounds like a porn star.

i'm on a downloading frenzy. if i don't have any viruses yet, I'll be lucky.

i can't download at UNT because I live in a dorm, that uses APOGEE, which very easily tracks illegal downloading, which refers you to the State of Texas, which, basically, sucks...a lot. One of my residents got caught. Her laptop was confiscated and in court she was actually charged over 10 thousand dollars. Luckily she lived in Plano, TX like all of the other freaking millionaire kids that come to UNT. Her parents sold her Mercedes though. haha. She ended up having to drop out and got to Quad C (Collin County Community College) instead.

I used pandora to listen to music and save new bands and preferences, BUT now that I'm home and I would be able to download music from all these bands, I find out that Pandora doesn't have licensing anywhere outside the US and therefore I can't access pandora.com here in germany.

SO, what's another source of good bands that I had on there/ haven't heard of yet? Rachel Peasters livejournal :)

Thanks Rachel!

one year has passed. it's been a long one. but it has a lot of memories, life experience, etc. that have changed me into a different person than I was when I came back to the U.S. last August.

I fly home tomorrow.

Friday I spent 8 hours checking out my residents. I did them all back to back, with a 40 minute lunch break. needless to say, it was a "rookie mistake" and I needed to take more breaks, etc.

Anyway. Today I had to clean my room, and I remembered the times I've spent in my room.

Move in week:
Photobucket

During the year:
Photobucket

Today while moving out:

Photobucket

It's kindof depressing....at least to me. I made my room really "homey" and now it reminds me of a prison cell that smells like bleach.

My flight leaves tomorrow at 4:10pm, I arrive at Germany on Monday at 9 something AM. That night, I'm getting completely trashed with Patrick because it's his birthday, and because of this freakin job and the high likelyhood that I'd get caught and fired like everyone else, I decided not to drink this whole semester.

Time to make that shit up son. :)

me and some of my residents are getting really close. it's pretty awesome. they're like my best friends. I feel like I know so much about them now. in some cases more than i ever wanted to know.

today courtney cain and her friends chris and orlando came to denton. i was really surprised. it was so awesome. i finally saw someone from germany in the states. she and her friends are going to a concert up here tonight. I hung out with them the whole day. We smoked hookah at this hookah bar i had never been to before which turned out to be pretty awesome and classy, ate chinese and i showed them my dorm. pretty cool. I was going to go to the show they were going to but they said there were going to be kegs.

scott+resident assistant+underage drinking= scott instantly fired, and having no place to live since his job is his home.

if I get fired, i don't want it to be this early in the year.

I think i'm going to go visit her and her friends in Baylor one weekend. It's only like 2 hours away so a short drive i guess. i don't know, i need to find time now. it's wierd. seeing her was the first time I saw someone from germany and it reminded me of germany. i miss it.

i have to work a bridal show in plano tomorrow. i make like 200 dollars for working 8:30 to 6:00. It's amazing. I LOVE IT!

i'm so tired.

a desk clerk called in sick today and they needed emergency coverage from 4am to 8 am. I never slept.

classes are hard. they actually want you to do work.

i read a novel in 3 of my classes which i get quizzed about. you try answering quizzes correctly when you have to remember what happens in three different chapters from three different books. you start to mix up symbols and themes and crap. it's horrible.

my algebra teacher barely speaks english. according to her, 50% of her classes usually fail. i wonder why. too late to add a class...which sucks.

so wednesday was the first day i was the "RA On-Call" meaning I get a pager and am responsible for anything that happens that night. Well, I think everyone in my hall agree's I had the worst first on-call ever. I don't think I can get into a lot of detail but summarized:

-resident has panic attack and is psychological distress. stopped taking medication, wants to kill herself, refuses to go to amublance, etc. very shaky condition, feels very self-conscious, doesn't want people walking by to look at her, because she knows they think she's "fucking crazy."

-fire alarm goes off, everyone has to evacuate the building to the back parking lot. My "psychological distress" incident is in the back parking lot. try calming someone down and not causing a scene when 635 residents stand near her and stare at her when she doesn't want people to stare at her. fucking crazy shit.

after fire alarm, hall director and counselor on call handle the situation, i'm told I can leave.

go back to my wing to make sure everything is fine after fire drill. one of my residents had her laptop stolen. situation for the RAOC (ra on call). who's that? me! called the police, made a police report.

met with staff to discuss fire alarm, report indcidents. i was told by HD to go back to HD on call who was handling the incident. run over to another dorm where she was repositioned. questioned about the beginnning of the situation.

have to do rounds in the building and tell residents to shut up because it's after quiet hours.

come back to mop up huge spill.

have to write an incident report for the incident in the parking lot.

Then had to do my homework which I had no time to do because of crap happening: do algebra homework, read chapters 2 and 3 of Infinite Nature for Enviromental issues and other stuff.

Basically, I got to bed at 4AM, and had to wake up at 8:30AM. You bet your ass that I threw that fucking pager into the drawer since my on call ends at 8AM.

In other news, I was voted RA of the Month for the Month of September because I apprently I did an amazing job and most people feel they underestimated me.

I just had another indcident 40 minutes after I started working at 4AM. Had to handle the situation and write another incident report with the RAOC.

Long entry, but I was trying to take up time. It's only 6:11AM and I don't get off till 8AM. I want this week to end. Just this week I've always worked at the wrong time or been at the wrong place at the wrong time. This week I've had to do 6 incident reports already, that's more than our whole staff combined for the past 2 weeks. :(

All in all, this job is crazy. I've had leadership positions before, but this is just so much more demanding than that. I've had jobs before, actually, several, but this is definitely the hardest I've ever done. I still think the pros are better than the cons. Hmm, pay 2000 dollars for college or pay 8500-9000 dollars, tough choice, I think I'm going to stay an RA...hopefully it'll get easier.

So, yesterday morning when I went to check on my rabbit before I drove to work I found him dead. I want to buy another one, but I see how well I can trust my family to take care of my pets while I'm gone. I left last summer with 3 rabbits and a pet lobster. I come back to one rabbit and some fish. Wtf mate. Correction, one incredibly sick rabbit and some fish. Since I've been here I've had to actually personally give him shots of medicine once every weekend and give him medicine orally every day. It's a damn shame that after 2 months he just died. Poor thing.

Anyway. Worked yesterday, picked up my truck at the shopping center. Drove home. Almost overheated. Took 2-3 hour nap….which was amazing. Woke up when mallory called me and she said they were having trouble finding a way to get to paris. I took a shower and helped my dad and my brother flush out the radiator/coolant system on my truck. My dad thinks the thermostat is broken though. That sucks.

Alex called me and wants to see spiderman 3 in mannheim. I think I might be going with my brother and my mom to ikea after work today. They need to buy more furniture and closets to make my room more into an office than it is now. Of course, they ask me to help them, because I wanted an office with a sofabed instead of a room to come home to ever since I left for college last year.

Sweet. I guess I should get back to work now. I'm actually allowed to process and key actions into DCPDS now (Defense Civilian Personnel Data System). It's really cool actually. Now all I have to learn is how to do Employeee Benefits, Workers Compensation, Living Quarters Allowance and Orders and I pretty much be able to do everything in our office. Job after college is going to be so kickass already knowing how to do pretty much everything. Haha. I can be a college graduate and already be a Human Resource Specialist….at least that's what I'm trying to get at, and if I work for the government, I want to be GS that way I make 50-80,000 a year whereas NAF makes about 45-60,000 a year. Seriously, college needs to pass, because I don't want to go to school anymore, I just want to work and move out my crappy house to live on my own somewhere in the states…like enterprise, or utah or washington. Haha.

so nothing much new.

worked last week. my supervisor is on leave for a week, and my office is so short staffed already that no one else will be approved leave now until she's back....which kindof sucks. Also, now that she's gone people feel like they want to call my phone because I work at her old desk and i don't know it kindof sucks.

friday went to the fest in mannheim with madison, mallory, chris, and mylynn.

saturday went to my brother's girlfriend's graduation (Abitur). It went from 5 to 11:30. Afterwards we went to a club in Wiesloch. It was sombrero night. If you buy 6 drinks you get a sombrero.

Well...I had 5 tequilla shots, 1 bacardi cola, 2 desperados, 1 becks and 1 B52. I wanted my two sombreros and I was told they were out. Fucking assholes. I was all sorts of pissed. Got driven home. Slept.

Washing my clothes today and downloading more songs for my ipod in hopes that one day it'll have as much music on it as my first ipod that stopped working completely in April. :(

I'm done.

So I just saw the news and yeah.....there was a tornado in Enterprise, Alambama and it hit the High School. 45 people have been hospitalized. I called monique and he phone doesn't work and it immediately forwarded me to her voicemail.

Monique! Don't die!

and

Peasta! Don't die!

I'm worried and sad.

I also haven't updated lately.

I'm the new vice president of my hall. how awesome is that. i'm hardcore like that as a freshman in college. haha. I now get a 20% discount off of my housing. AWESOME!

I'm starving. Luckily I have a UNT Society for Human Resource Management meeting in 30 minutes and I get free pizza, soda and stuff there. Haha. Seriously, in college, get involved and join organizations, if for nothing else but the food.

I also turned in my application to be a resident assistant or housing ambassador for next year. Yay!

Now I just have 4 interviews to be amazing at to make the cut! woot. I'll keep everyone updated and such? It might take awhile because i'm really busy lately.

This weekend I worked at a bridal show and made 88 dollars. it's amazing. haha. I got to tell solicitors and people that were trying to sell crap in the parking lots to fuck off and that they're now banned from ever participating in a dallas/ ft. worth bridal show....seriously I got paid 12 dollars an hour to do that. and it was teh greatest day in the world. Also this weekend I participated in the UNT Human Resource Games (jeaopardy style game in which all colleges with HR programs compete against each other) and UNT placed 2nd in Texas. Awesome.

Also, the University of North Texas passed Texas Tech as the third largest university in Texas. It's now after Texas A&M in 2nd and UT in 1st. Difference between those three? Hmmm, well the first two charge you 20,000-30,000 a semester while UNT costs 9,000-10,000. Haha. I think UNT is going to be getting a lot bigger and more awesome in the next few years.

Yay. I'm busy and hungry and need to go and attend a meeting now! I hope monique and rachel are still fine!

Once tagged by this entry, the assignment is to write a blog entry of some kind with six random facts about yourself. Then, pick six of your friends and tag them.

1. i have a smiley face scar on my right bicep.

2. I'll admit I'm extremely in love with my hair...sometimes.

3. I have a tendency to never tell anyone I like them.

4. Everywhere I go, I'll always get the cheapest thing on the menu. Most people don't notice, but it's the only thing I look for.

5. I'm crafty. I like origami. Thanks to senior year I can make/bind books, and weave baskets. I have an eye for style and I ♥ it when things look symetric

6. I miss my friends way more than I should. Sometimes I feel that I can't let go, even if I wanted to. I still rememeber my friends from elementary school. I miss people more when they're far away. In some aspects I feel closer to them? Someday I hope to try a long distance relationship and see how that works?


and i'm not tagging anyone because i dont want to do this to anyone :)

this weekend was boring.

i wanted to go to the talent show but i didn't even know where it was or when it started. haha.

i finished weaving my basket for crafts.

i finished my mask project for crafts.

i kindof studied for my anatomy exam and by kinda i mean i looked at the topics that were going to be covered? (senioritis)

i think i'm going to have all A's this semester which is pretty good. i think i'm going to have like a 120% or something in comp with all the extra credit i did when my grade was already a 94%this quarter is so easy?

i'm worried about stats because i never made up that written test before the ap test which everyone failed (senioritis) he told me "don't worry about it" I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS?! maybe....he just gave me a C or a D? that would be fine? me and madison need to do our project tomorrow because i can't answer those questions he asks and i need his help. MADISON, BE READY! we're going 2nd tomorrow right after joe and ashley!

did we have homework in german or i just have selective listening again? haha (senioritis)

my brother's on vacation for the next two weeks. conveniently those are the last two weeks? i get my car? except for some days he needs it as i am a nice person? there are only like 5-8 days of school left! i say that estimate because i don't plan on coming any day i don't have to for an exam?

eh senioritis rules my life? i seriously thought i'd never be affected...i guess you don't know until you actually experience it. haha.

so prom was kinda a bust.

i got into an accident. maddie had the great idea that we'd pick everyone up by the castle, just we couldn't get there...at all? so we were going to park down by the "big parking lot" maddie said was down there. well we get lost like 15 times, i swear we were driving for like 30 minutes till like an hour. we finally find it and we're following this car...well it seemed the road was just simply blocked off with nowhere to go. so i had to reverse myself in this ultra tiny side street in heidelberg with cars parked on the side of the road? wtf. with a van. that just screams accident. but i would have defintely made it if it wsn't for that piece of shit trash can that i didn't see?

stare in awe at my crappy microsoft paint reconstruction of the scene?

a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank">Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting</a>

i hate paint i can never resize my pictures, and it naturally makes it this small?

my reversing went in the order of red, yellow, green, purple, blue, and then brown is driving back again.

so i was going to party downtown and tell my mom "i was to tired to drive home." She's not dumb she would have known right away that i drank and if she found out that out she would have blamed that accident on me trying to drive while i'm under the influence and she would have probably taken away my license. SO i figured i should drive home right away not party, try and see if she's at home so she has "evidence" that i'm not drunk. she wasn't home. i slept in extremely late this morning but i have to say it was a GOOD nights sleep? told her this morning and she wasn't really mad since she hates that car and i followed all my rules ect like coming home, not drinking.

prom sucked. it was 1,000,000 times better last year when we were already drunk. so we were just standing there it really sucked? we stayed. FOREVER? and then when we were going to FINALLY get drunk that fucker of a trash can just comes out of nowhere and ruins everything.

the van's bumper is kindof effed up. it bending snapped off the plastic covering thing around the wheel? its really gay. the bumper was coming off also at that same spot but with some quick thinking and a few screws i had that sucker on there and my moms none the wiser?

she just drove out of the driveway to mannheim. the car is making squeaking sounds, i'm really paranoid because i don't know if it's because of me? but why would it? i don't know.


i think if i had gotten some of that absinthe before prom like everyone else i would have not been able to drive down to wherever maddie was leading me, not gotten into an accident, gotten drunk and had a nice sleep in the van.

oh well.

my exam schedule seems pretty good?

german: don't know but probably won't have one
comp: i think he said something about writing
stats: no, just project presentation

crafts: some research paper about masks, a finished basket and 2 finished batiks by the 31st
pnp: nope, i have a's both quarters so i'm exempt
avid: talk about an article of clothing?

I think i'm pretty clear?

stuff i need to do till the 31st or 29th?
finish pastiche
read mwap book
do mwap
do two scholarships
finish stats project
stats project presentation

man...i'm bored.

i want to do something this weekend.

i hope my mom gets her car fixed so she'll let me drive it or hopefully my dad'll come home and then i can go to the river party tomorrow? i could drive to the lockridges? i haven't beeen there in over a year...damn. i could drive to maddies house depending on if her he-mom that hates me with a passion is home or not?

my brother said he needs the truck tuesday, i was hoping i could drive to school with it and drive home at 4 after the ap stats exam...dammit.

maybe my dad'll come home and i can propose my deal to him:

the way i see it now, i don't care what i drive (although i do want a bmw) i just want a car as soon as possible so i'd gladly give him my truck if he'd buy me a car and then he can sell it when i leave in august? it sounds good to me/ i'm pretty sure he'd rather get me a car that i'll probably get in an accident with rather than me driving and crashing my moms ford winstar (van), my dads bmw, or my 2nd oldest brothers fiat brava which he is trying very hard to let me...not drive

while watchig the amazing race for the first time? i'm not really a reality tv kind of guy but this is actually pretty cool. theres this old couple who practically dies every time they have to do something that requires....well...everything but driving? and this other girl who has a fear of flying? wtf mate? why the hell would you even take part in the show if you didn't like flying you know it's going to happen unless you're planning on paddling across the oceans or is there another way to travel around the world that i don't know about without going over an ocean?

I called my colleges and stuff today. i decided to go to the university of north texas. i'll probably transfer to north carolina and live with my sister anyway...because that's only a solution that saves ME somewhere between 5 and 6 thousand dollars a year for room and board costs. so around 15-20 thousand for my sophmore, junior and senior year in college.

so i accepted university of north texas

and declined texas tech, texas a&m and my conditional acceptance at the university of texas at austin.

i called and asked about orientation. there's one for out of state students starting 21 august. dorms open the 20th and the fall semester starts 28th of august. she said i can come, do my orientation and register for classes, move into my dorm and chill there till everything starts. i should have asked for her name and named my first daughter after her because she just made everything easier than i thought possible?

anyway, that means i'll be leaving around 18th of august or something since me and my dad have to set up a bank account, get me a stateside license just in case, a cellphone, maybe a crappy car or a new truck since my dads got demolished in a tornado.

possibly a trip to harker heights, texas to visit chelsea anderson le great?

maybe a trip to shertz, texas to see mother theresa of the bentleys?

i doubt i can go to el paso and visit my best friend...ever scott numba 2

seeing them would definitely start college off with a blast?

maybe a trip to baylor, texas to post a banner saying "james marple is the biggest faggot ever, he raped 21 adolescent male children in heidelberg, germany, and his only friend is a my little pony who's hair he brushes 4 times a day" i admit it'll be a long and costly banner but baylor university needs to be warned....


tomorrow have a driving lesson from 1-2:30, and i have an ASACS appointment at 3:30...with mrs selves. geez i've only heard bad things about her?

My talk with alexander oreo seale ended like this?
