Pretty sure it came from this.

It is older than the cat too. Also, fuck cats.

I finally got my start date for my new job, it's the 19th. Building launch is August 12. If I get approved for this apartment, I move in on the 15th. If they're doing off site training, Amazon is sending me to Texas for 2 weeks, all expenses paid. I'm finally getting my braces off in 2 weeks. I have two ridiculously hard literature classes and hope I can keep up with all the moving and shit.

The fact I'm still alive is blowing my mind. I'm stressed.

Also: I'm going to be living alone by myself for the first time without a bf, and I'm scared shitless!@!@!

Living alone is awesome. http://www.buzzfeed.com/kevinmcshane...her#.ck6JAZbP3

What kind of lit

It's African American Lit, and then a short story class where I have to do this media term project, and write a page paper about it. Ugh. Lots of writing and reading. I hate reading, which is ironic cause I'm an English major.

Also:! I got the fucking apartment! Fuck yeah. I'm just waiting on my lame ass OLD apartment, to fax back fucking papers for my new one, but they don't get their asses on it at all. Ugh, I need this done by the end of the week, I move in on the 15th, but they won't finalize my application until they get this fucking paper.

Still stressed until this is done.

I can finally play Phantasy Star Online 2 in English.

Scratch that. The damn thing is IP blocked. :/

I know someone who starts at Amazon this fall. They hired him in May, and told him they didn't want him to work anywhere else until he started with them, and that they'd pay him to not work. So basically a mandatory 3 month paid vacation before work starts. Mind blown. Must be nice.
