Confidence

Extrovert at heart, introvert by nature.

I'm trying so hard,

to stop being so shy all the time.

So today,

I did something new:

I went to Applebees

by myself!

I'm so proud :D

At first,

I was really nervous.

The host/greeter guy seemed to be embarrassed for me.

The waitress asked if I wanted a drink

and if I'd prefer to sit at the bar.

When I told her I wasn't 21,

she giggled nervously.

I did however,

order a Strawberry Daiquiri (virgin)

which btw was delicious,

not to mention a real treat.

I had a Caesar salad to start off,

but it was drowned in dressing

and pretty soggy,

so I only ate the croutons

and crunchier lettuce pieces.

I ordered this for the entree:

Garlic mashed potatoes,

steak smothered in cheese,

red and green peppers,

mushrooms...

YUM!

To top things off,

I couldn't walk away without

my favorite dessert :)

While I was eating, I wrote a little bit,

read a little more,

and had the chance to do one of my favorite activities:

people watching.

All in all,

it was a pretty pleasant experience.

I don't think it will ever be my first choice,

but it was definitely a lot less scary than I thought it would be.

On a different topic,

I got a job at Target!

It isn't my first choice

to work the food counter,

but a job is a job.

I also wasn't too pleased,

that I'm not making as much as I was,

but again,

a job is a job.

And a job is better than none.

I had two interviews,

and the second lady,

was the one that would be my immediate boss.

She said she'll probably cross train me,

which I told her would be perfect.

I don't think working at the food counter will be bad,

I've worked food before.

I just don't want to do it every day,

so cross training will be nice :)

I gotta put in my dues though, right???

[[I can't wait for August 17th!]]

Kittens

All the kittens' eyes are open :)

They're SO CUTE!

The orange one looking at the camera

follows me when I let them out of their box.

It's so cute!

This one is Jenny's

it responds when I say hi

and is the only one

that can stand on all fours right now.

I thought this was cute,

even though it's blurry.

I took my laptop out

so I could take pictures,

but they kept crawling toward it.

Precious has become an obstacle course

when I'm in the kitchen.

And she took a shower with me today.

I'm falling in love with her,

so I'm kind of glad that my babies

don't get along with her.

It makes it easier to not keep her.

I'm so glad I get to foster these kitties,

and I'm also glad

that it's not my responsibility

to find them homes.

I think I've found a couple,

which is good.

But I don't know what I'd do,

if I couldn't find a home.

I think that would be the most heartbreaking thing for me.

Awaiting Ideas

Two nights ago,

I went to sleep at 8pm and didn't get up until 9:30am

Last night,

I fell asleep watching TV at 6:30pm

then woke up at 9pm

and couldn't fall asleep unitl

3am.

I then woke up at 3:15

and ran screaming down my hallway

because the spider/cockroaches were chasing me.

(Aka nightmares.)

That's happened to me

several times since moving now.

Hopefully I don't do it while Susie is here,

I'd probably scare the crap out of her.

I got up at 8:58am today

and got ready for the day.

I went to Starbucks on my way to the DMV

(Mommy got me a gift card :})

I didn't have to wait long at all,

but it's a bit different than AZ.

First, you stand in line for information,

no matter if you have the forms filled out or not.

Then they send you to whatever line next.

Personally,

I got sent to the "Written Test" room

since I am under 21

I had to retake the written test

to get my Nevada license.

There was no line there,

and the guy helping me was super nice.

He did a quick pre-test with me

to see if I needed to study

(Which I most definately did)

Nevada has some weird laws,

the one that stood out the most to me

was that if a person graffitti's a building

they get their license revoked for 3 years.

It cost $25 to take the test,

but I passed!

You could get ten of fifty wrong,

I got eight,

seven of which were within the first 10 questions.

Boy, was I nervous!!!

After taking that test,

they told me because I have three moving violations,

I have to take the behind the wheel test next.

Unfortunately,

the next appointment isn't for 5 weeks,

I made mine for September 3rd 10:30am

so that it wouldn't interfere with classes

(No class on Fridays.)

I was worried,

because I have to have either

a Nevada license or voter registration

to get in-state tuition at UNLV.

Like I said,

the guy was super nice,

and gave me a form to get an immediate

temporary voter registration until my permanent one

comes in the mail.

Lucky me! :)

I then went to UNLV to register for in-state,

but the office is only open Mon-Fri 8-5

which I was sort of expecting.

I'll have to go Monday.

I got Panda on the way home,

and now I'm sitting at my house,

waiting for an idea to pop into my head.

I'm gonna do Covergirl a favor

and tell you about their new product

called LipStain:

I've been using this product for about a week now,

and yesterday I bought another color.

I really like the selection that they have,

and it's not as iffy as most lipwear

since the color you see

is really the color that appears on your lips.

This is the darker one that I got yesterday:

It's not the greatest picture

since I took it on my webcam

but I really enjoy this product.

It truely stays on all day long!

But!

It's easy to take off,

no makeup remover necessary.

The only complaint I have,

is that when my lips are chapped,

the chapped parts are darker

so it looks pretty funny.

However,

this morning I put on

Buxom Lip Venom

(another product that I love)

over the lip stain

and it fixed that little problem.

Mmk.

So that's it for my advertisement,

now off to my advisement meeting :)

Kittens

I have a housefull of kitties!

Precious had six,

so now I have a total of ten cats

for the next twelve weeks.

Born July 9th 2010

They're SO tiny!!

And I'm so happy to have them for a little while.

Poor Precious

seems so, so tired.
