So a lot is about to culminate at once for me.
Some (if not all) of it is very good. Some of it is hard. And some of it is just plain rude/stupid. But, ready or not.... here it all comes. Oh boy.
I don't think I ever truly shared this, but I start school (college) on Monday. This is long overdue, but whatever. It's HAPPENING. Remember when I didn't care if I lived long enough to actually GO to school? And now here I am, actually doing it. It's.... It's a crazy feeling. But I think I'm ready. The schools I'm going to are actually pretty cool. Oh, yeah. I'm attending Collin County Community College. They have three different Campus' (That is how you spell that word, right?), and I'm attending the one in Frisco (not too far of a drive). But then, as soon as class let's out there, I have to RUSH to get to McKinney (A substantially farther drive) to attend my math class. Yeah. For those of you unaware of how far that is.... Well, it's pretty far. And I have an hour to get from one class to another.
I'm really hoping someone drops at Frisco so I can take both classes there. :/ And then work. Um. I quit. Today is my last day. I honestly have no idea how to feel about it. Mostly because, well.... last night.... I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to say this, but I found some stuff someone stole while I was cleaning up the back room. Um.
Y'all know I'm a goody two-shoes. Well, actually, this isn't even that. This is about honesty and respect in the workplace. That's what all those posters in the back SAY we're supposed to do. But oh GOD was it hard to keep my composure after I told my manager. She was really chill about it all (well, as chill as you can be in that sort of situation), but something tells me that A: District manager, and possibly Loss Prevention, are going to be there today. And I have to CLOSE with suspected thief again tonight. And B: What if my district manager wants to TALK to me?! I've tried really hard to make it so I only have to talk to her when I absolutely HAVE to. Like, she has to initiate conversation, and usually it's just business-y, or about work. :/ Idk guys, maybe I'm stressing over nothing....
And finally.... Idk if I'm ready for all of this. I mean part of me is as prepared as I can be. I know where (at least one) classroom is. I have all the supplies I can reasonably get until I can get the syllabus and text books and figure it all out. But... idk how to FEEL about all of this. Does this mean I am, finally, a grown up? Am I ready for that sort of title? Or have I already been one and this is just cementing the fact?
Idk. But.... I know I want to figure out the answers to those questions. And I want to go to school. I haven't been able to say that before, but now... now I can. And I hope that maybe this makes everything less scary. At least on some level. :)
Now then, I have to go and get a new backpack (the zippers on my old one are completely broken), and then go to work. XP One more day.... and then I get Chipotle afterwards! :D lol.
Sincerely,
