I know this may not seem like a big deal to some, but it's something I've considered near-blasphemy for many years... I'm growing out my bangs... EEK! It's very hard to do and they're getting past my eyebrows now so they stab my eyelids. It's just really annoying. But I want to give it a try. If I don't like them, I can cut them and have bangs again in like 5 seconds. Not really a big deal. It's cutting them that's a big deal.

So anyway, it's hard for me but I want to have hair like Sadie in her sets. I had never read her journal before, but the other day I did and she doesn't seem well at all. I guess that goes to show looks aren't everything. If they were, she'd be on cloud nine evrey day. She's adorable! Oh well I left her a nice comment and I truly hope things start looking up for her.

I have 10-12 classes left to attend this term. That's not so bad, right? We get out earlier than everyone else, and Bob said most people finish even earlier than that. I'm sure I won't have any trouble making that a truth for myself. The class was designed for people with little or no computer experience. I had to take it as a pre-requisite, but it's not so bad. It's an easy A, to raise my GPA and make up for the D I got last term. What a fuckhead I am. I wasted my parents' money... I feel like shit. Ugh.

Sooo... I'm HOPEFULLY going to take that medical terminology couse online over the summer (let's hope I can actually make myself do it). After that, I can start the HIM program in the fall. Is this really what I want to do? I don't know, but it's certainly something I can live with (I think). I mean... medical coding isn't that bad. It's not terribly stressful, I don't have to deal with people the way customer service type jobs do... and it makes a comfortable living. I figure once I start working, I'll pay my parnts back for at least half my tuition costs which will be about $5,00 (isn't community college great? 130 credit hours for $10 grand). I'll rent a decent apartment for 5-6 years, save my ass off, buy a house, fix it up, sell it to make $20 grand profit, then buy my dream house. All within 8 years of today.

So I don't really care if school is kind of hard or inconvenient, or if the job isn't the greatest in the world. Some people think doing what you love is the most important. I thikn it's important to at least like your job, but for me, making money is important. I don't need to be making any more than $40 grand a year (which is supposedly average yearly salary in Oregon), but I do ned to make at least that. I refuse to be poor my entire life and scrape by between rent payments. Fuck that, all my friends are in that pedicament, and I won't join them.

Loki is sleeping on the desk. He was on my bed, but when I came to the computer room he followed me. He guards me from bad things. <3 Too bad he's so camera shy or I'd take a picture. I'm just afraid it'll make him get up and leave. I don't want to disturb him right now hehe. Loki loves to be punched gently in the nose. Not PUNCHED, but tapped with my fist. He sticks his face into my hand when I do it and starts purring. Silly boy. Loves his face rubbed all over except inside his ears.

EEK mosquito eater going berserk! I think I'm gonna go play video games or go to bed. Slaince.
