Seventeen and Such!

Well, it's certainly been awhile!
I'll be starting work experience for social studies 11 at Black Bond Books in Guildford this Tuesday. Five days a week, 100 hours in a month.
I got the job at the library! I start at 13.44/hr, and once I graduate I can apply for the desk job which is around $17/hr. Whooo~ I just did training yesterday.
Kekeke. I start my first shift with more training on Monday.
I'll have to buy some new dress pants for BBB, since I can't survive on the same pair for the whole week... Luckily, there's not much of a dress code at the library so I can wear my jeans! <3
Joshua has gotten very big, and VERY heavy. He can stand up pretty good now, and soon he'll be walking. He eats so much now! I'm amazed. Michelle and Daniel are pretty much the same. They took me out to the aquarium and all you can eat sushi at Tanpopo last Sunday. I got a year membership at the aquarium. I suppose I'll have to find time to use it now. Jenny also gave me the registration form for the AE this summer! I'm hoping to go all three days this time, and actually save up for it this year. I won't RP, though. -sweat- I wonder if Dana will go...
Night school is almost over, with just one class left. Dana and I have pretty much agreed that we'll skip level two and just try out Korean Level one afterwards. Maybe. -hasn't quite decided- It IS a lot of money, after all. And I keep missing French classes because I got sick, and once time I couldn't get a ride when they went to safeway....
Dana and I aren't really making headway with our fanfiction. We didn't make it past chapter 1. LMAO. So much for that. Hah.
I got new shoes finally! Laura chipped in $20, and Marlene chipped in $20, and voila! New shows, brown with the converse symbol in a blue/green colour on the side. They're actually pretty nice! Amanda has her eye on a nice pair of brown Vans that are $70, but she gets a disount since she works at Sportsmart now. No longer a WEX student, she'll now get paid! Two jobs, geez. @_@
I have to buy a bus now for WEX, so that's another $60. OUCH. Oh well, I used up my gift card to BBB and more to get the new Sarah Dessen book and Furuba 19! Whoo! -excited- I also bought a couple of Ted Dekker books, including Saint with my Birthday money! Being seventeen is weird somehow. I don't think it's completely hit me yet. It's JENNY'S birthday today! I STILL haven't gotten her something, since she won't tell me what she wants. I'll have to do my chore tonight, though, so I can go out with her to Korean BBQ tomorrow hopefully after school and hang out... I wonder if Teresa will end up coming?
I'll miss youth, but oh well. Last week was good! We went to a place in Vancouver again for the conference youth event thingy...yeah. I'm jealous: Daniella's church gets to go to this concert thing in Edmonton with like Hawk Nelson and Newsboys! They pay $100, which includes hotel, transportation, AND the concert costs! So not fair. All we were notified of was the History Maker concert in Chilliwack with like Stellar Kart. -sigh- I don't think I'll even make it to that one...
I would write more about my actual birthday party...Jas got me a brown zipper hoodie. Everyone is sick of my gray one. HAH! Cameron got me cheesecake and the fourth book to maximum ride! Amanda is still getting me something, and everyone else pretty much gave me cards, drawings, and money. Lawl. Lee and I didn't get anything for each other.
Bowling was okay, though I didn't play two games like some people. Thuy Vi, Jenny, Chris and I went to eat, and that's when I went to Celebration.
At my house, the Donkey game was the highlight of the evening. I got some pretty funny videos...
I won't elaborate on that here. Anyways, I would write more but I have some music to put on mp mp3 player before my dad wipes out the computers again. GAH!

See you later~
