Let's Celebrate, It's All Right!

So the countdown has officially begun. We have 10 days (well, nine now) until we close the doors for the year. I am ready, I need the break. But then it'll be all over and I'm going to be uber depressed.

Oh well, at least School will keep me busy.

Today was a very busy day, I didn't take a break because there wasn't time. I raked the arena for the first hour, and then by 10:30 Dallas had me driving around Anchorage trying to pick up some things that needed to be gotten TODAY. The first was getting the dog vitamins that Mitch ordered. Problem was the location I was told to go to was not correct. Come to find out the place I was supposed to go was in the opposite direction and had never been on the street that Dallas said it was on. Nor had it ever been in a brown building like I was told. Not cool. Two hours later I still hadn't found the place (and didn't have my cell phone on me today ugh!) and so I went to the next place that I needed to go. Had bad directions for that, but luckily I was able to find my way to it and picked up the forms that Janine needed me to get.

I get back to Wildride with about 15 minutes to spare before the people started pouring in for tickets for the 1pm show. I called Burger Jims so I could at least EAT something during the show and then helped Becky with the stuff that needed to be done.

The 1pm was a rough show, and so we were all a little on edge, and let's just say Dallas was not the happiest of campers. So when I told him about not picking up the vitamins he was... unhappy. I got right on finding out where they were actually located, and with only an hour to get there get the stuff and get back I was off. It was on the opposite end of town and I had to go through a roundabout. Which scares the crud out of me because I don't drive through them enough to know what the heck I'm doing. Why we want to be European is beyond me! Didn't we win a war a few hundred years ago so we didn't have to do things like them? BLAH!

anyway I get there and they bring a pallet with the vitamins... 380lbs of vitamins... plus the pallet on a FORK LIFT and set it in the back of my truck... and then I slowly made my way back across town with just enough time to make it.

But like I said I didn't get a break. 9am - 5:30pm. Oh well, i can use the hours, though I'm sure Dallas will be less than pleased at the idea that I didn't take even a small break... such is life.

I work 9 to whenever tomorrow... and then I go to half days at work... I guess.

oy...

oh but Sept. 12 is going to be a happy day! PFDs are coming out a full month EARLY! So Sept. will be a very good month monies wise! :) I'm a happy girl about that! hee hee!

Alright, gotta start getting stuff put together for school and church since I won't have much time this weekend to do it!

As for about noon thirty AKST I became a licensed driver. Yep I can officially drive on my own... scary I know.

After that mo had me driver her all over creation lol. But it's ok because I got the STAR WARS EPISODE III REVENGE OF THE SITH Soundtrack and montage DVD... I am watching it now and OMG I LOVE IT!!!!! JOHN WILLIAMS IS A GOD! ok not really but seriously, the man can do no wrong composition wise... and Ewan McGregor as Obi-wan is TOTAL HOTNESS, but we already knew that. ;)

Seriously I love this already... *gushes*

I also got new socks and some shades :) I haven't been able to wear sunglasses since 7th grade. They're blue and really cool.

So yeah nothing else to report... just letting you all know. And for those of you who prayed THANK YOU, you ROCK!!!!!!

my mom is making a new script for these clips they're showing and it's funny... we're being naughty lol...

"Anikan, if you're good, uncle Obi will take you camping!" ;)

ok I am going to go we're getting goofy and I have to get busy on things so... yeah... Garage Sale tomorrow...

May the force be with you... always.

I was also told I can take my drivers test. So I am taking it on Friday!!!! The sooner I can get it the better, I guess. That was pretty cool, here I was thinking I drove like crap and the guy is ready to have me take my test. I am worried, but at the same time I am excited.

My dad had me drive out to Kassy's new house today to see her. I was sooooooo happy to see her, and I wasn't very nervous driving once I got out there. It's soooooooooooo cool to drive with my dad. He really is not freaky at all. But when he forgets to tell me to turn until it's too late then I get freaky. And for the record, I HATE Kassy's driveway. It's steep and narrow and if you aren't careful you'll roll into their lake. ha ha!

After I got done with the driving lession and scheduling I went and hung out with Miss Joy at the church and I spent 4+ hours with her and Pastor Dean and the many people who came in. It was so much fun! I seriously love her to death, and her grandkids are so cute!!!!! But I gush over them all the time so I guess it's no big deal for me to say it one more time ;)

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I was going to say more but I forgot what the more was, so I will just go and have you all play this game:

01. Reply with your name and I will write something I like about you.

02. I will then tell what song/movie/icon reminds me of you.

03. If I were to apply an o'clock to you, I'll tell you what it would be.

04. I will try to name a single word that best describes you.

05. I'll tell you the most memorable moment I've had with you.

06. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.

07. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.

08. Put this in your journal.

Hope your day is awesome and that you get all the cheesecake you can eat (ha ha)!


So I have one more day of driving and then I'm done with scary man who likes to yell. He did a lot of it today, but I deserved it. I was not focussing and I have no idea why. But I got to listen to the radio today while I was driving. Kenny Chesney helped to relax me more so than I ever have been in the car before. I guess being tense is a good thing because I drive better ha ha!!!!

Then mom made me drive home, and I took the back roads and since I knew how to get home I rocked! I am so proud of myself. No doubt after dad gets wind of my driving I'll be stuck doing a lot more of it. GRRRRRRRRRRRR LOL. I'm actually not as scared, but still I am a pokey driver ha ha.

VBS is over in a few hours. We have the parent program tonight and then nothing else. YES! I am so happy. Seriously I had the most fun I've had since 2002, but at the same time 3 hours of the same music for 5 days it's just too much. *sigh*

Not much else to report... I don't think my email is working... I haven't heard from the place I applied to. I'm scared that I'll lose the job if I don't get ahold of them soon. I should talk to mom and go over there tomorrow and just figure out where to go from there...

ok so I am not feeling well and I have to go to the church in 3 hours so I have no idea what I'm going to do but *sigh* I'll figure something out!

No I am not watching Shrek, but my head hurts and I love that line, so I dunno lol

So I drove today... to Soldotna and back. 2 more stupid times and I am so done. I am happy about that. No more screaming old guy freaking out because I cut corners (as do my parents, I don't realize I'm doing it so :p) and because I don't floor it LOL. I have to work on "picking up speed" because it's better to be over the speed limit than under it aparently. Honestly i don't care lol. I will go the speed limit or under when he is not in my car ;)

Anyone else tired of the Michael Jackson Trial Media Circus? It's disgusting. I think he did it. I think the media needs to quit playing up either side. End of story lol.

The weather is still crappy. And my headache is still really crappy.

VBS is almost over *yeay* and I am so sick of the music. Seriously I hear it more than even the music teacher. It stinks!

No news on the job but PLEASE KEEP PRAYING. I really want this job at the visitor center. It would be so much fun and so easy on me!

I fixed the church calendar all up last night, but I still need a way to do the prayer requests and praises before I am satisfied with the site....

ummmmmmmmm what else? Duane got in trouble again today and mom is ready to kill him. She's decided that she can't baby him anymore and I think that is awesome, because that is one of my pet peeves. (He's asleep on the couch and has an afgan covering him and Yuka is sleeping all cuddled on him. they are so cute when they are asleep!) aparently he got into a huge fight with a girl in his VBS class (the younger sister of two of my closest friends) and then he says the teacher kicked him but I think he's lying through his teeth. But another teacher had to chase him down. It was just one of those days. Needless to say mom is not someone you want to be around today. It sucks when he does this and the rest of us suffer because mom gets into a pissy mood. UGH.

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I know there's something else I need to put in here but I can't think of it. so I will end with

HAPPY BDAY TO melbo AND julesy YOU TWO ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Luv ya, mean it, chow!

so yeah I either REALLY suck at driving, or the teacher just flat has no paitence by the time I start my lesson. LOL It's probably closer to both.

Yesterday's lesson sucked. I had never driven before and he had me on the freaking highway 2 seconds into the stupid lesson! HOLY CRAP I was so freaked out.

Then today he had me on one of the older parts of the highway, it was 55mph, and so bumpy/bad/winding that I was freaking out. I had to go over a bridge. It was not cool


on the top of that I am stressing over VBS... thankfully I have 2 days without lessons WOOT! so I am happy about that ha ha!!!

oh and my dad is awesome and is taking me to see STAR WARS tomorrow afternoon. Because he's awesome, and I love him. (and I had a really crappy evening after my lesson yesterday, adreniline and me do not get along, and the tears came and I was able to get something I wanted hee hee hee)


so yeah I am going to cruise the net for a little bit... and then get off... I am sleeeeeeepppppppyyyyyyyyy and I have church in the morning.

ok so I don't have my permit yet (getting that in the morning, hopefully) but dad made me get in his truck and back up and pull forward in teh drive way. I seriously locked up so bad he thought I was having some sort of attack. Then when he realized I was just freaking out he started LAUGHING! Seriously the man is eville! He's trying to kill me...

I am going to MAKE him take me to star wars sometime soon so that I can get over this! LOL I deserve it.

Pray I do well on the test. I've already failed it once (I was 15 ha ha) so I am not promising anything...

in between that and my driving lesson at 4pm tomorrow I also have to get more VBS stuff done. Yeay for last minute timing on EVERYTHING! My mother seriously hates me, and my dad wants to kill me. BOY do I FEEL LOVED or WHAT? :p

I am going to bed now. Nighty night all.

PS, aimzers Even if Florida isn't the best of weather right now I am extremely jealous! Have LOADS OF FUN!!!!!! LOL
