The beginning of the school year is quickly approaching and because I'm a minor, I can only work after 4pm and before 10pm on weekdays at Wal-Mart. But I set my availability to what I want and I'm taking control. After a spring of scheduling that left a bad taste in my mouth due to a lack of ability to have a social life, I'm going to guard my time carefully this fall. It may mean less hours and thus less money (if they schedule me to the max., it will be 23 hours instead of 25, $15 less than usual, not bad at all). But I will be able to go to Pure Energy youth choir on Sundays, Bible study on Mondays, IMPACT on Wednesday nights, and have Friday nights open for high school football or hanging out. I will not let Wal-Mart control me and my life this fall and that makes me happy.
In other news, my sister's birthday is a week away so that's exciting. My grandparents and uncle are coming in for a few days in the next few days so that will be fun.
Went to the Travelers-Cardinals AA minor league game yesterday, that was fun though we had to leave before the end of the game to get back by 10:30. Had a good time with friends though.
Football is coming back! The Cowboys opened their training camp yesterday. Their first preseason game is August 9!
The "Salt Bowl", the rivalry between Benton and Bryant, is played on August 31 at War Memorial Stadium so that's exciting too.
I'm taking two college classes at Pulaski Tech this fall: Composition 1 and American History so that will be interesting. Starts August 20.
I guess that's it. Only 6 months until LOST returns!!! To pass the time I've been watching the weekly reruns of The Office and watching the season 3 finale every once in awhile.
Have a great rest of the summer!
