So.... The job hunt begins again...

Since I am getting taken off the schedule until at least Easter time, I'm going to have a very thin wallet for the next several months. This isn't so good, especially since I need to hold onto some money for when I get to college and also for building up wealth in general since I'll basically be spending my life as a poor SOB with my career choice. So.... I'm going to look for a second job. I need something that I can do mainly on the weekends and then during the week once I'm done with school. I just finished an online application for the Gap Outlet in my outlet mall, so fingers crossed there. I really enjoy retail, so I want something along those lines. I'm not going to even CONSIDER anything involving food in my search. Some other stores that I'll look into are American Eagle, Aeropostale (ehhhh I don't know about them), or something of a similar nature. I only need 10-15 hours per week during the school year with my schedule; summertime is fair game. I may venture out into some Medina or Wadsworth stores later on.

Since I'll be 18 in 4 days, it'll probably be a lot easier to get jobs as well as to get jobs that pay slightly better than what I'd get before being an adult. 

Fingers crossed through all of this!

Ohhhhh I love online shopping.... But my wallet doesn't...

It's going to be even harder now that I won't be working until around Easter.... Woohoo being broke-ish....

Welp, I had no luck with that search! I'll keep my fingers crossed for this DePaul one, though.

YAY I'M DONE WITH THAT SCHOLARSHIP!!!!!!!!! 



Now my mom is making me find as many others to apply for as I can.... 










woohoo.....

I am soooooooo close to being finished with my scholarship application for DePaul!!!! Just two more short essays to go and then I'm done!!!!

The Tables Have Turned!

My mom is  making my sister do the chores that she was going to make me do muahahahahahahaha!!!!! That's what she gets for being mean to a cripple!

I'm done.

Literally my sister is giving me no sympathy here, and I am ready to smack her upside the head with my crutches! She expects me to put a bunch of laundry away and all this other crap that I physically can't do and it is so annoying! 

Right now I'm trying to get down to business with scholarship applications and I just want to slam my head against a wall a few times. I'm really tired and sore and in no mood to deal with any of this stuff!

Make it work?

I was SO pumped that I almost made it to adulthood without getting seriously injured or ever being in the emergency room. Literally, I was thinking it last week! I said nothing out loud because I didn't want to jinx myself, but I guess it went without saying!!!!!!! This year, this week especially, I have been trying to keep my head up and roll with the punches. I kept in mind the words of Tim Gunn: "Designers, make it work!" and I have been trying to live by that mantra.

This is just another obstacle. I'm going to have to make this work out somehow! With my diet, my schoolwork, my show, EVERYTHING! 

On the bright side, my pain levels have gone down substantially so it might be possible for me to perform with an ankle brace or with an Aircast boot. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, though. I really don't want to do crutches....

Uggggggggggggggh everything hurts and my family is super annoying about all of this and I just want to lock myself in my room and be left alone.

Sprained (?) Ankle Day 1

I hate this. My dad won't stop worrying about me and babying me which is getting really annoying. It still hurts pretty badly, but it's nowhere near as painful as it was last night. My mom gave me some Vicodin leftover from my dad's hernia surgery to help me sleep and to help kill the pain, and I slept like a baby. 

On the bright side, I get to stay in bed today without judgement or anything, so I guess every cloud has its silver lining.
