Ugh. I hate being a woman. Nothing ever goes right. If anyone has been following this blog for a while, they'll know that I can get really bad cramps. I finally admitted that I had to do something about them when school started, so I started taking birth control. I was told, by everyone I talked to, that I would have no more cramps. They would just magically vanish. I would still get my period, but it would be scheduled, and short. No pain.
And of course, there's pain. Just as bad, if not worse, than my regular cramps. The only thing that has changed, is that now my period is early. Yay. It's not fair. I have so much homework, I have a round trip of about five hours three days a week for school. I have work sixteen to twenty four hours a week. The absolute last thing I need right now is to be in so much pain that all I want to do is curl up next to the toilet and throw up.
And that's how my day has been going. Back to homework!

Friends!
Another school year has begun. I'm already done with it. I was looking forward to school starting, but for some stupid reason, I decided to wear high heeled boots today. I have a two and a half hour commute to school. My feet were killing me by the time I got home. Never again... But I'll probably end up forgetting the pain in a few months, and decide that it's a good idea. At least they're cute...
I had my creative non fiction class today, and it ends up, I'm the only one, other than the teacher, with experience in this subject! Yay, plus one for me! Now I just need to come up with enough material to write about. At least my life has become a little more interesting within the last few years.
The homework has been piling on though, and I've only had two days of classes. I have tomorrow completely off from school and work, so I'll be working on as much homework as I can. I'm also supposed to be going in to try and get a drop in appointment for a driving test. I secretly hope there won't be any. Those tests just keep getting more and more stressful. They should be easier, but the more I fail, the worse I think my driving is. I know it's not getting worse, but that's the only explanation I have for failing so many times.
On a happier note, I actually have a friend in one of my classes! And I don't just mean someone I talk to from time to time in one class. We actually went to elementary school together, all the way up to graduating from high school. We live in the same neighbourhood, so we can bus all the way back together. It's weird, that somehow we both ended up in a school several cities away, a rather obscure and small school that most people can't remember the name of. And that we ended up in the same class, even though she had been going there longer than me. Happy coincidence, I suppose. At least now I don't have to bus home alone when it starts getting dark out earlier.

I'm Sorry!
I'm really sorry for the impromptu break. I always intended to come back and type up a quick post, but when I finally got around to it, I never seemed to have anything to say. Nothing to fill up a whole post, at least. I think a month away from has been good. It's allowed me time to build up for an update.
Although, not much has happened in this time. I stepped down as manager at work, since the original manager came back from her leave of absence. It has been... Trying. I was hoping she would let me keep running things, or at least help out for a bit, but she's just the same as before. I had to show her how to do a few things, as she had forgotten, but then she wouldn't let me do them. She took hours to finish simple tasks, and I'm convinced she does it on purpose, because she doesn't want to work in the kiosk. I know I've said it many times before, I just don't know what to do about it. I don't think there is anything to do. If she's just slow or incompetent, there's nothing we can do. If she's deliberately taking her time just so that she could sit in the back on a computer for longer, I can't prove anything.
When I had to show her how to set up for inventory, and how to do it to make it much easier (So that she doesn't have to start work at 3:30 in the morning to do everything), she was ignoring me, checking e-mails and doing everything that I had already done. She re-printed out everything, and tried to show me the new updates. I still don't think she knows what she's doing for inventory, but at least she's doing something. I can finally sit back and relax. If everything goes to shit, I can just shrug and say it wasn't my fault. Everyone already knows that my manager doesn't let me do much to help out, so even if they blame me for not doing anything to fix any problems, well, I can just blame her again, but I have tried. I ran that place for thee and a half months with only a years experience as assistant, and I did it better than she has done with five years of managerial experience.
But school has started again, and I'm going to be working my butt off with four classes; one second year, two third years and one fourth year. I'm nearing the end! And I'm really hoping by the time I finish, I'll have a job I enjoy more. I'm still working on it. A new bookstore opened up in the mall near my house, so I'm going to apply there.
I also just got back from a mini vacation with my boyfriend, so I'm all nice and relaxed. I wish I could relax for a few more days, but I know that would just turn into a few more days, and a few more, until I spend every day sitting in bed or on the sofa watching TV and browsing the internet. No matter how nice that sounds, I guess I should continue with my life. Back to reality!
