College. I don't think i've ever looked forward to anything more in my life. well, maybe a couple things. like seeing daniel, band events and graduation. But i've mentioned in previous posts how i was completely stoked about gaining my independence! well guess what?!?! it's right around the corner! I just made a deposit on an adorable apartment (layout --->) I don't know if you can see it all, but it's wonderfully small and wonderfully new. Everything else in thatcher is about 100 years old. no lie. and this apartment complex is only about 5 years old. i got very lucky because i called them and i was at the top of the waiting list! the thing is, they didn't have my number. they had samis number! so i made a $500 deposit the other day and the apartment is mine! i already made contact with one of my roomates. Now there is independence. I also registered for classes! I'm all set! now all i have to do is make as much money as possible before i head over there.
Right now our family is in a tight crunch. My parents can provide me down near zero funds for college so i'm paying for it all myself. Hopefully i'll earn about 2 months rent before i leave. i don't even know if i'll make that much. My sister got a car in high school. she also got a laptop for graduation. Now she crashed the car, but she still has a working laptop. I don't even have a license. I have a bike. Where's my laptop? oh wait. we can't pay for one. sigh! well, i'm not really worried about the car. my apartment is about 100 yards away form everything i need to get to. except for maybe a grocery store. I'm not much worried about transportation. But i could really use a laptop right now. But hey. my birthday is coming up. maybe i'll get lucky and receive an ample amount of birthday money. I'm turning 18! no longer a minor! i might have to come up with a new name for my blog. The sad thing is, i'm not as excited about turning 18 as i am excited for the drum corps semi finals! it's gonna be the best birthday present i ever gave myself!!!!! Yes. i know i'm a huge geek.
I haven't written in a veeery long time. so i have recently begun waiting for a missionary!!!!!! i won't say much other than i'm completely obsessed. i hope i get a letter today. see you all!
