Life actually began a while ago, but this is when life in the world begins. On the 14th of last month (May), I graduated from High School (Yay!). It went well, and I didn't completely ruin my speech, but real life still didn't really start. You see, I haven't had anything to do since then. So I've pretty much just been bored out of my skull. You can only spend so much time on the computer before it gets just as boring as school. So, I think I've figured out what I need to do. Get a job. Yeah, it's so obvious, right? But it's not like they come to your door begging you to take them. . . . . Well, my brother's job did, but I'm told that's a rare occurance.
Anyway. I need a job. You know what else I need? My license. Yeah. I need seven more hours of driving time. Just seven! You know how long it's going to take me? Probably at least another two months. Seriously. We don't go anywhere. . . . Well, anywhere far away. . . . usually. Hehehe. =) We just don't travel much. So even though I should have had my license two months ago, it's probably going to be closer to the end of summer when I actually get it. I'm hoping it won't be quite that long though. The one thing I do have? A car. =) I bought it just today. No, it isn't new. (Do you have any idea how much new cars cost!? It's outrageous!) No, it isn't sparkly and beautiful, (I wish it were. lol) but hey. It runs well, the gas gage works (we've had problems with those), the speedometer works (those too), it doesn't guzzle oil (that one too, I think), and it's my car. The one catch: I can't get insurance on it till I have a job. So, like I said, I'm only halfway to real life. Although, my brother told me that life doesn't start till after you go to college. . . . . In which case, I'm only like. . . . a quarter of the way there.

lol! I feel your pain. Out of curiosity, did you ever think of starting a buisness of any kind. Perhaps even just running a warehouse or something (basically being a distributor) and managing that completely in like 2 hours a day during the week days? I've been thinking about that. That way I don't even have to "Sell" products. I just store them until the shops/stores can get them. And get paid for it! Now, obviously, the hard part would be to get a warehouse....heh. But, it's an idea for a goal. And you can make good money off it.
As for hours. Seven?! Hmmm...I know it's not really alot, but it coudl take a while. You should make excuses to go somewhere or something. Come visit me (that would take care of that....)! j/k. Um...I'm not really sure. Just want to let you know how much I know how you feel. I'm in somewhat the same position (though a little behind you on the car/thing, as I'm just now starting Driver's ed. a little late....but whatever). Thanks for the post!
A business? Me? Lol Me. . . . start a business. . . . Wow. . . . Anyway, no it never even crossed my mind. Nope. I think I might waitress. It sounds better and better every time I think about it. *shrug* I don't though. Wherever God wants me. =)
Yeah. . . . I know. Seven is still a lot. Is that an official invite? lol ;) Although. . . . I could check out Maranatha while I was there. lol
