11:30p.m. or so- bed
Weekends
10:00-11:00a.m.- Wake upsome homework
2:00a.m. or later- bed
No gym, yet my dad offers to take her, no driving everywhere, no cleaning. I check on Steph all the time just to see what she isn't doing and she is always sitting there in front of the computer doing timewasting stuff and playing around. In matter of fact, whenever I call home to ask what she has done during the day, and she's more than glad to tell me NOTHING. Add to this the fact that she has to be told to go to bed, brush her teeth, and stuff like that. Add to this the fact that she never wants to go out with the family or do anything family related like going shopping as a family, Disneyland, Knotts, stuff like that. Fun stuff, no? Problem? Yes. I think so.

Kind of a rant about how I feel I am feeling
I can pretty much do what I want at home and there is no problem. I am not out doing bad things or anything, so don't worry; that's not where this is going. I love my cell phone in that I can call my parents spur of the moment and say I'm running out to do this or that with friends. I love my friends and their random calls. I hate that it seems to inconvenience everyone else or they want to try and keep tabs on me. I'm 20 for goodness sakes. I am very trustworthy and dependable. I know that a lot of this however is brought on by Steph- her not having a license, car, stuff like that, so they may need someone to shuttle her. Also, just the general parental worry. It bothers me. They have a right to know to an extent, but I'm 20; nearly 21.
If I want to go out after school with friends I don't want to call home and tell mommy and daddy where I'm going. I do; usually there is no problem, but they don't like this whole spur of the moment thing. Oh well, I don't care. I need the spontaneity to keep my sanity.
If I want to go out at 10:00p.m. on a school night to play video games with friends, let me do that. Don't give me an awkward stare and question whether it is too late. I think I'm over 18 and can be held accountable for my actions. I know if I go out late, I'll be paying the price for that in the morning and I'm fine with that. I understand 10p.m. sounds suspicious like I may be going out to meet a girl for you get the picture; but remember my friends are college students, they don't keep normal schedules unlike me. I am not going out and drinking at a frat party or something and meeting girls there. Cuz you know I'm a big partier afterall (sarcasm). Remember, my parents taught me well.
I have so much freedom, yet I feel bound. I am at the point where I don't care if I call or tell everyone where I'm going at a certain time. I do have a pretty calendar to begin with... things happen... stuff like that.
All of this does not change who I am. I'm still the responsible caring person; I know because I still live at home I have to deal with some of the worry etc. that comes with that. But I still maintain about a 3.7GPA every quarter, I take a full load of courses, I work part time, I do so much around the house (clean the bathroom weekly, my room, load the dishwasher daily, clean the hallway weekly, and so please don't give me the I'm not resposible excuse). Worry about my sister; the lazy twit who does nothing. NOT A DARN THING. She sits in her room all day reading, watching tv, and playing on the computer. I don't. I have a life. I have friends. I have high expectations for myself. As I said, high expectations... so don't worry about me messing up my life. Be releived knowing that I have a cell phone to call you if something were to happen. Be happy in knowing that there is a 99.9% chance nothing will happen. Be happy in the fact I am a good son and do all of this stuff. I don't want to be bound by a phone or calendar to call home, or that awkward stare about going out so late to mommy and daddy after a long day at work and/or school and say I'm going out to unwind with friends.
Here is a breakdown of my schedule this quarter:
- Intern 10 hours a week, 2 days a week
- Work 12 hours a week, 2 days a week
- Go to school about 10 hours a week, then add additional study time to that (so 15 or so)
- Sleep 35-40 hours a week
- some days I go to school and work, some days intern and work...
I'm busy and I need time to relax is my point.

Week in review 3
Saturday
Went to a friend's house and we played computer games Saturday night.
Sunday
I stayed home for the mostpart. I went to the gym and grocery store.
Monday
Work was soooooo fun. Lots of good conversation with one of my coworkers and best friend's. We were pretty much alone all day grading notebooks, so we got to talk alot and catch up in each other's lives. It is not something we get to do often since she works about 50 hours a week and goes to school full time. I got asked to be lead tutor again at work. I said no, but I am sure I'll end up doing it. Went to school Monday afternoon- got home at 5:30. I hate getting home so late; it makes me feel like I have no evening and time to rest. It is like the evening is gone before I even get home... and it is only 5:30... ok.... laugh.
Tuesday
Went to work again. One of the classes I tutor evaluated all of us tutors. We were graded on a 1-5 scale, where we needed improvement, and our strengths. I had good scores and comments overall... mostly 4s and 5s. My comments were almost all positive like the kids like the fact I don't take their attitude. They like that I am hard on them and I don't take whining or complaining. Some also hated that about me, but oh well. The worst comment I got was that I need to stop smiling. I smile too much and some people find it scary. I also got a comment that someone was unhappy I don't know calculus.
I also had to follow a student around named Nacho. He is a football player and he is not doing his work in his science class. His teacher asked that I go into the class with him, take notes, make sure he stays on task, show him what to take notes on, help him, etc. He enjoyed having me there. He actually did his work. I was hard on him and I said you're going to do this work because now I'm in on it, your mom is in on it, your teachers, so I don't think you want to deal with all this pressure. We also got him a new seat in the class. Good stuff. He sits up by the teacher now based on my recommendation. Nacho has no clue I was the one who suggested it. Haha
Wednesday
Started my political internship. It was mainly boring stuff for the first 3 hours- reading manuals, signing papers. Then the last hour I filed press releases into a 3 inch binder. Again, boring, but oh well. I got to leave an hour early and still got credit. Good deal.
Thursday
Internship again... got to learn to sign the signature of the person I am working for. Also heard funny stories of people who regularly call the office. Got allergy shots with the family. Ate at the Mexican Kitchen for dinner. Yum. I love their cheese enchiladas.
Friday
Went to my community college class and turned in my take home test. Went to work to fill out my timecard. Then I sat down and ate at Jack in the Box as opposed to going through the drive through. Was driving to school and the battery voltage light was low. I knew this battery was dying a long time ago. My dad refused to believe me. It died. In the parking lot at school. I went to class, called my dad at school, told him to meet me when I got out of school with a battery for my car. He did. Took him an hour to put it in. Grrr. Me was not happy. My dad for some reason thinks a battery will last forever, but any other thing like tires if there is even slight wear he gets worried.

Week in review --- Round 2
THIS WEEK WAS CRAZY!!!!
Saturday: We celebrated Steph's birthday at TGI Fridays. It was good. I had the potato skins appetizer, theh bruschetta chicken, and Cinnabon cheesecake. Saturday night I went over to my friend's house to have him reinstall Windows on my computer.
Sunday: Went grocery shopping with my dad and got a much needed haircut. Then I went back over to my friend's house to have install Microsoft Office since he offered and so it was fun hanging out. We hung out most of the day.
Monday: I took the day off work. I NEEDED TO. I had so much going on, I needed a day to get caught up. I had a dentist appointment with the orthodontist. He basically said I need to have my jaw broken if I want to fix the whole bite issue I have. My top teeth lie directly on top of my bottom, which shouldn't be the case and was fixed with the braces. The idiot orthodontist at Hospitality Dental failed to monitor my mouth closely enough and so now to correct the problem would mean the need to have my jaw broken and going back into braces. NO.
Tuesday: I went back to work. I had taken off since last Wednesday. My coworker who everyone was having issues with was fired. She didn't go out without a fight and is trying to create problems now. It was a good day overall at work.
Tuesday night I hung out with my friend Steve who fixed my computer the other night. We watched Reaper on the CW. I got home at about 11p.m.
Wednesday: Went to work, but left early. Came home and tried to make a decision on the internship. I couldn't get in contact with the person at the high ranking official's office. I delayed making a decision. Wednesday night I stayed home and chatted online with friends.
Thursday: Went to work from 7:50-10:50. I left early again. Then I came home and sat up a new router for our computers to get on the internet wirelessly. YAY. It didn't work, so I called Steve since he is into all this technical stuff. He told me to bring the router over, he configured it, did all the dirty work, and then we hung out for a couple hours. I left, went and got allergy shots, then had dinner with dad and Steph at Burger King. Got gas for $2.79 at Food4Less and got a call from Steve at that time asking if I wanted to come over and play a new computer game he got. I said sure. Drove back over to his house- 30 miles away or 40-45 minutes. I brought lots of snacks- Chips Ahoy, ice cream, stuff like that. We played until 11:00p.m. and I was getting very tired since I've been getting so little sleep. Got home at 11:45p.m. and went right to bed.
Friday: Got up at 8:00a.m. this morning and went to MJSC for my music class. I like that class- the kids in it are nice- lots of boyfriends and girlfriends taking the class together. There is an older guy Randy in the class who says he can hook me up with a job at UPS after I graduate if I want. Definitely going to get to know him better for that. We got out early because the teacher decided to make our test a take home test. We got out at 11:00a.m. instead of 11:50.
I used that extra time to rush to UCR to pick up my parking permit, went home, fiddled with the router, decided to take the political internship mainly because it is closer to home and I am never home as it is. I ate lunch, showered, then turned right around to go back to UCR for my first class at 2:00p.m.
Just got out of my first class- human sexuality and reproduction. It sounds like a lot of work. Typical lower division lots of work class. There are 3 tests, 6 quizzes, random attendance checks for points, 1 big final project, points for attending the discussion every week. Ugh.
I have an hour break until my Spanish class. YAY!!! I don't like the fact the class is from 4-5p.m., but oh well. It is alright. I like the professor- I have had him for the past 3 quarters, so I know him well. He is an easy grader. He likes me. We're cool like that. I think I'm going to try and get a letter of recommendation from him at the end of this quarter. Don't think he gets many requests, but he is my professor I know the best, but his English is very limited. We'll see.
I just hate the fact of having a late class (anything after 3) and getting home later than everyone else in the family. This is going to mean me changing my eating schedule a little. We usually eat dinner at 4:30 at home, so I want dinner at 4:30. I am going to have to wait until at least 5:30. I may try to eat lunch later to deal with that. I want lunch at 11:00a.m. though, so maybe lots of unhealthy snacks in between.
This weekend will be consist of calming down, sorting through everything, getting back into school mode, sleeping, and buying a day planner.

2 incredible opportunities
I want some advice- I've thought about it and am at a crossroads.
I interviewed last spring for an internship with a high ranking state official with a lot of power in Washington. I got the internship. If I could get a letter of recommendation with their name on it, I'd be set I think. It would mainly be doing office stuff- helping around the office, writing letters, responding to citizens in the area about problems they are having.
So why take this internship and why to not? The name of the official on a letter of recommendation for me... closer to home... 30 minutes away as opposed to an hour with the one below. The office seems really uptight and not so laid back. If I want to go into government, public relations, etc. this is a good start.
I interviewed at the beginning of this month for an internship with a newspaper. It sounds like an incredible experience because I can get experience working at a newspaper, have my name PUBLISHED, learning to shoot, report, and write stories working with reporters. Getting to go in the field and interview.
So why take this internship and why not? Great experiences working at a newspaper, which would help if I do end up pursuing journalism. The downside is that I'd be commuting 60 miles each week 2 days a week and it is an hour away. The position is basically an entry level reporter- not a beat reporter. I would be doing community pieces- interviewing various figures in the community like sports person of the week and get to cover news stories.
Both would be 10-12 hours a week and both would be unpaid.
I need to make a decision TODAY. School starts Thursday and I'm going to have to run around and take care of all the paperwork in the coming days.

Making Hot pockets
Do you ever wonder what would happen if you didn't use that special covering when making a Hot Pocket? Would it not turn out right? Would it not cook? What would happen? I am going to be daring and try...
and so I tried... and it cooks. I sort of figured it would. But it doesn't cook up like I like them. It came out of the microwave with a more moist crust. I like my crust to have a little crisp though, so I tend to cook the Hot Pockets an extra 20-30 seconds and now I know that it can only be done with the annoying cover the Hot Pockets come with. Now I know.

My week
I really want to start updating my blog since I have a lot to say, so I think I'll start with a weekly update about what I did each week. We'll see how that goes.
Monday: Went to work. All started off well. A coworker and I had some personality conflicts. I didn't want to deal with her, so I took off early after giving her a piece of my mind. She didn't like what I had to say, but I don't care. Just because there is "lead" in your job title doesn't mean anything to me. It doesn't mean you can get out of doing everything everyone else does like clocking in and out. The problem has been dealt with somewhat and will be in the coming days. It's sad that I'm the only one of my coworkers who had the balls to say anything about it. I was told several times from the coworker this week I am on bitch mode. I am, bring it on, bitch.
Had a dentist appointment. I hate the dentist, but survived. No cavities, but I do need to see another orthodontist on Monday since the dentist thinks I have a lot of tooth crowding. NO BRACES AGAIN. I REFUSE.
Tuesday: Went to work again, the gym, and some other stuff.
Wednesday: Had a lunch date with a good friend. We had Chipotle and hung out. Also got approved to substitute and had 18 calls Wednesday night to substitute.
Thursday: Got my sub ID badge, helped my mom's friend at her school, then had a date Thursday night with someone I recently met. Went to Chevy's Mexican Restaurant, talked, then walked around the mall afterwards talking. It went great- good conversation and it was continuous.
Friday: Had my music class from 9-12p.m. at Mt. San Jacinto College. I love the drive down there on the freeway- it is 30 miles away. I can get there in 23 minutes and you're constantly moving, so the drive goes by fast. Whereas when I'm going to UCR, which is about 10 miles away here in town I go through 14 stop signs, several stop lights, and it can take 25 minutes or more. Then I came home and dealt with Dell Tech Support and spent 7 hours on the phone. I was not a happy camper. Last night was karaoke night with friends from high school. That was tooooooooooooooooooooooooo fun.
Steph missed her train home from school yesterday. Oh well... she did make it home...
Saturday: Today we're celebrating my Steph's birthday because she's not feeling as sick today. She has been sick for the past 2 weeks or so. She is 18. That's scary.
Monday: Went to work. All started off well. A coworker and I had some personality conflicts. I didn't want to deal with her, so I took off early after giving her a piece of my mind. She didn't like what I had to say, but I don't care. Just because there is "lead" in your job title doesn't mean anything to me. It doesn't mean you can get out of doing everything everyone else does like clocking in and out. The problem has been dealt with somewhat and will be in the coming days. It's sad that I'm the only one of my coworkers who had the balls to say anything about it. I was told several times from the coworker this week I am on bitch mode. I am, bring it on, bitch.
