SOKKER Love!

This is a wonderful idea Court! I will do my best to post on a regular basis. As to what's going on in my life at the moment. Not a whole lot. The Sharper Image is tentatively set to close its doors on May 24th. I'm hoping I will not be left unemployed. I am currently waiting to hear from Sun Trust about a bank teller position I interviewed for about a week ago. Keep your fingers crossed for me! The real world is not a fun place for me right now.

Fortunately, for me, there's always Mario's world! Yes, that's right! Court, you may have Second Life (have you seen The Office episode when Dwight and Jim play Second Life?), but I have Mario Kart!! It's totally addictive and such a fun game. Whenever we are all together you shoul have a tournament or something!

And speaking of getting together, I say Aug. 8th is the date we should aim for! Why, Aug. 8th you ask? Well, the sequel of The Sisterhood comes out! Sound like a plan?!

so i could read how to do this or i could pretend that posting a comment is how i respond. idk.

today's blown. this whole week has been pretty bad. but this made my life. though i can't physically show that i'm stoked either to myself in the mirror or to you guys across the country, deep down in my heart I REALLY AM! this is def a great way to stay in touch, i can't think of why we hadn't thought of it before. blogging is the ish...plus, anywhere in the world we can do this. england. afghanistan. north cackalack. who knows, where ever life takes us as court put it.

anyways. lala, i'm sorry life's a downer. i dont like the real world i've joined either. some of its ok, but most of it, nah. you'll get a job. you've extremely capable and very smart and charismatic...the day will come...we'll all be trying to get in to see our best friend as she's hounded by press and people who dont know her but want to...whether that's at a bank window or an awards show after party. hahahaha

ok so my suck. i need the book. hardcore. britt's had a death grip on it for a while. and luckily lala got it, b/c obvi reasons you needed . i dont really want to talk about my suck though b/c it just bums me out and i dont want to bum you guys out. lets just say i want to come home. home home. i'm tired of living out of bags and doing stupid training for shit i'll never use again and meeting crappy people (minus a select few) and being bossed around by people with lower rank than i. rank's not even a huge thing to me, but when another person thinks they can't treat a fellow person like crap then i just get pissed b/c i didn't volunteer my life, literally, so that i could be treated this way. and then you add to it the rank factor...that just makes it more ridiculous. its fine though, i always believe people who suck will get what's coming...unfortunately after coming here, i have a long list of people who need to get what's coming.

tomorrow i have a big brief on a mission to destroy enemy forces and take over the pass through the Mule Mts. of AZ. its hypothetical, but we've had to collect the intel and put together this brief so that we can prepare the commander for what type of enemy he is going to face. basically my job as an intel officer is to get all of this intel on terrain, weather, enemy weapons and personnel capabilities and weaknesses and put it all into this brief to war game with the head honchos of the army. i war game. it sounds super fly, but its not what i'll ever be doing, and its a lot of power point and map drawing. anyways, that's tomorrow, when i go in with my group of 3 retards, literal retards, and brief the murder board--a group of higher ranking officers who try to rip you and your brief to shit...even down to the misplaced semi-colon in line 4 of slide 67. hahaha THEN after that, i have to walk approx 13 miles with 35lbs on my back from 7pm to 12pm...to accomplish one of our graduation requirements. not only is this gay, but i'm fucking sick with a virus and a hardcore sinus infection (not a fan, never had one til i got here) and the 8 pills i'm taking (i know, i'm an AIDs patient) all say on the bottle NOT to operate heavy machinery or drive while taking them b/c they make you severely drowsy. so as you can imagine i'm a zombie and my whole body is exhausted for no reason but meds. i'll prob die OR i'll drink myself into a coma afterwards. kidding. dehydration and alch dont mix. so that's my tomorrow...which is yalls today already. i hate this time change, btw.

i hope all are well. i love you guys. you brighten up my life. and yes, aug 8th. whatevs man...i'm down. i dont have any plans for the summer when i get home on the 3rd of July. minus sleeping, drinking, and catching up with fam and friends. my gpas are flying up sometime. my parents are moving into another house on 20th of June so i'll be unpacking all my shit (everything from NC and on, considering this is move 5 and i've seen maybe half the shit i packed from NC 5 years ago). and then there's the bf who i will be visiting in either VT (where he's from) or TX (where he's stationed with the Field Artillery/Cavalry Unit at Ft. Hood until he gets deployed to the most dangerous part of Iraq, in January). you guys can come up to me OR i'll come down to you, seeing as all of you are in the same great state and i'm in philly. philly? when did THAT happen?? hahaha it is a fun "city" though. you guys would love it.

ok, i've got to go replace my straps on my ruck (army backpack with a frame circa WWII era). the straps the issued me dont work, thus caused lots of problems when i was mistakenly hoofing 50lbs on our 6mile ruck...long story, it was supposed to be 35lbs but i accidently put WAYYYY to much weight in and nearly collapsed at the finish line. its cool. i'm alive. duh. hahaha

ok i love you all. i already said that, but it's never enough. never ever ever enough. dont worry about me, i may complain, but just as it was as a lady knight, the only way to survive is to bitch to your best friends about how much it sucks until its over and you're like oh yeah, i just fucking did that, and did well, and survived. but then you add that little...FUCK YOU! i add a little FUCK YOU every time i think of mccarthy's ugly retard face and rat mullet and fetus-sized feet.

SOKKER IN MY HEART and eventually tat'd on my skin.

Lala, I am STOKED for some Mario kart :) When I'm down for Britty's birthday, we should have an all-night marathon with snacks or something crazy like that. Vodka and mario kart, haha! I'm so sorry things are like they are right now, but try not to worry so much...the right job will find you soon, you just have to keep your head above water until then. And if you ever need anything, let me know, I'm more than happy to give you anything you need.

Kate, I officially hate the army. I was leaning that way anyway, since they took you from us, but after reading this I'm just done with them. But, like you said, Fuck if you aren't doing it and doing it right! You are such a strong, confident person... don't let this experience take anything away from you. It's almost over!

Britty... where are ya, boo? I miss you!
