Yay, 6am and I'm awake. Finally got my sleep schedule back to normal. But it'll be backwards again by the time college restarts.

The only memes I like are MLP, Pokemon, and the extremely photogenic guy. Most of my boyfriend's stupid friends are meme fags and have made me hate the majority of them and memes with a passion. Lol. He's only a year behind me, but you'd think his friends were 14 or something. -_-

Raine, I think I would die if my boyfriend had to work that much. I'm so clingy. LOL. Neither of us work though since we live with my mom and I get enough scholarship money to buy us junk throughout the semester. I don't think I'd be able to keep my grades up for my scholarship and work and keep my sanity at the same time though. I stress way too easily.

Hahahaha!

My bf and I live with my parents, partly cause it's impossible to find something decent to live in that accepts 3 cats, partly to help my parents with the bills since my dad's boss only paid him like half the time.
My bf normally would work like 8 hours a day 5 days a week, but he got a second job a few days ago (he's trying to get us out of here since my brother is intolerable and my parents refuse to do anything about it). Sooo the first 2 days he worked about 5 hours at each job, but today they both scheduled him for like huge shifts. @A@ I'm pretty clingy, so it'll be rough for me.. but he texts me when he can so that helps. And then he only works 5 hours tomorrow and is off the next day. :3

I'm a bit excited with this new job he got. He gets paid weekly! :D How fun. XD

Tell me about it. We have a Yorkie (his 1st bday is today~) and 4 cats. xD We aren't even supposed to have them, but the landlord hasn't come by since the day we moved in over 3 years ago, so my mom doesn't care.
There's not much work around here though even if we did want to work. My mom has been unemployed for 2 years now. She has a nursing degree and worked 17 years in the field and went back to school for a criminal justice degree, but she can't find a job anywhere because all the crap place here will only hire stupid teenagers that barely make it out of high school. They use that "you're overqualified, so we can't hire you" BS excuse. -_- So right now my grandfather pays all our bills and his, but things are all right. But if he were to die (even though I really hope he doesn't. Ever. T.T), we'd be screwed, and he's old and sick and has kidney cancer, so.. yeaa..
I'm sorry I'm rambling about my family. ^^; Talking about jobs always gets me started thinking and then I can't stop. Lol. Sometimes I think I should work just to help pay for things, but I'd only end up screwing myself out of all the financial aid I get for college on top of my scholarship, and then I'd be even poorer. Lol.

Anyway, getting paid weekly sounds awesome! Pizza party every friday night now! xD

My parents own my house. ^_^ And my dad takes care of most of the bills. My bf and I pay like $200 a month 'rent' since we took over the entire basement. And we pay half the cable/internet bill, which is like $50 for us. Plus we're here in case my dad's boss has a fit and doesn't pay him during a critical time. We almost lost our house during x-mas a few years ago, it was stupid. :mcmeh: But things have been much more steady for him lately so we're trying to get out of here. But we can't get an apartment (which is all we can afford with 1 job) cause of the cats.. so my bf got 2 jobs so we might be able to rent a small house or something. O3O

Isn't it just dandy that work-place screw people over like that. =_= It's like they don't realize that the teenagers/out of college kids are probably going to leave them hanging much easier than an adult with experience. =\ I hope she can find something good though. I know times are rough. Things are picking up here. Slowly, but surely. ^^

And I hope your grandfather is ok. </3 I've lost all but one of my grandparents and I hope she never dies. ever. (dear god I should call her.. it's been like 3-4 months since we've talked and she lives right across town *guilt*)

FFf lol, if you'd lose out on scholarship money I'd not work either. XD No need to stress yourself out, right? :)
My bf tries really hard to give me a life where I don't have to work. ;w; He's the greatest <33

Pizzaaaa!! Actually I had pizza last night since I didn't want to cook. I'm actually not a huge fan of pizza, I only have it once in awhile. XD Bust you best believe we will be having more date nights. ;)

My grandparents own there house, thankfully, in case something did ever happen. And they've lived there so long it's all paid off, as is my grandfather's car. My boyfriend and I actually live in our garage, but I'd prefer the basement if we had one. Lol. I actually want to live in an entirely underground house one day so the sunlight won't get in my damn windows. It'd also be safe from tornadoes!
I still have my grandfather and grandmother, but they don't get along at all, and it's rough on both of them. My grandma got pretty sick after she retired, and had a bad stroke, and now she has alzhiemer's and things are just hard on both of them. It bothers me a lot when I think back to how nice everything was when I was a kid, but I guess that's life. I just wish the last years of their lives didn't have to be like this. But now I'm depressing myself so I'll move on to something else. Lol.

My boyfriend says he's going to be the only one that has to work. He's planning to be a CIT and get paid crap tons for repairing computers and managing servers and all that stuff, but he cannot save money AT ALL. And the worst part is the money he spends right now is my money! Lol. We have pizza way too much here though. Whenever we get short on food at the end of the month waiting for mom's food stamps to replenish, it's always pizza that he wants. Or Zaxby's, but I could never get tired of that place. xD

Also, noted you on dA. Ready whenever you are~

Updated stage 3 of Nyx <3 I plan to finish her today, and possibly Reyli's request as well.. >3>

@ Lyrium- I would hate to live in my garage, it's a friggen mess. =_= But I have a nice sized room, a living room, and a bathroom down here. there's another room I want to take over, but it's full of my mom's junk (she kinda hoards like end tables and knickknacks). The bathroom down here doesn't work though... :mccry: I should get that fixed, lol.

Aww that's nice of him. My bf has no idea what he wants to do, so he's just been working at McD's to get us by. ^^; But he tries his best for me <333 ;w; And I try to help out by getting commissions. My last one I used the money to buy him a new hoodie since his was all torn up and he refused to buy a new one since it wasn't for me. (he spoils me too much, jeez).
I've never been to Zaxby's. I think our go-to when we're out of food is like... mac and cheese... We always go buy mac and cheese since it's cheap and eat that. XD
--checks DA--

@ Hotarla- Congrats! :D That's so exciting!! :mcgrin: I remember when I got my first to 75, OMG it was amazing! Getting one to 100 is even better. :mcglee: I can't wait till you get there, hehe <33
