Long time, no see Gaia.
A lot has happened over the past couple months, Gaia, a lot has happened.
I'm taking full-time classes at the community college in town through the PSEO program Minnesota offers in lou of finishing my classes at the high school. I'm earning dual credit, so hopefully I'll end up earning my AA before my high school diploma.
I've gotten my first job at Herberger's, which is not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. When I got the job I wasn't a huge fan of fashion and clothes but I don't think I could have had a better first job. All of my coworkers and managers are amazingly nice (and sometimes surprisingly lenient); we're never bombarded with super DOOPER busy days, though we do get some incredibly mind-numbing slow days; and my discount is absolutely amazing. And now I've become more of a "fashionista." Not the kind of fashionista that keeps up with the latest trends but more of the kind that just wants to look good when she goes out. I wear quirky things, but they're cute quirky; not "giant-orange-wig-quirky."
My parents split up, got back together, split up, thought about filing for divorce, and got back together in a matter of two and a half months. Damn, that was an emotional time for me. I ended up living with my older sister while this was going on. Things can still get a bit tense around here and I usually immediately know when those times come. Then I just go up to my room, put some headphones in and play some music or watch some anime to drown out the possible fight/argument/discussion. It's just so much easier to not have to even hear it.
Otherwise it's just the usual new things that come with getting a new job, going to a new school, attending college classes for the first time, and almost becoming a child of divorce. And along the way I met some new people, got to know the people I already knew I little better, and watched some new anime! So as for right now, let's make like the Tao and go with the flow.
