I feel like my life is on a broken record. Honestly all i do is work, sleep, eat and then repeat...oh and drive. Drive, drive, drive. It never ends. I really need to put more posts up here. i dont have a life so i have no excuse, but somehow i manage to not have time anyways. like right now, for instance. I am not doing anything, except thinking about how i should be going to bed. i have to get up so early tomorrow. 4:45am. not even right. but i am committed to blogging more often. yes. yes i will. starting tomorrow! :) tonight i really do have to go to bed. 5 hours and 20 mins til i have to wake up again! it is sick how little sleep i get. oh well, i shouldnt complain.
oh, and pics to come....lots o' pics.

training
My first two weeks of work i will be in training. they are packing a lot of information into us and it is a little overwhelming. i have to take all these tests to become certified under all these different laws to be a collector. it is basically a protection to the customers so i can't be a jerk on the phone to them or harrass them, and it protects the company from being sued for me saying or doing the wrong thing. we are taking one test per day this week and i have passed the 2 i have taken so far. i am excited about that.
my commute is getting better and easier. i am finding my way around. i was pretty proud of myself yesterday. i got off work and was talking to Trevor on the phone trying to meet up with him before Jason got off work. i only roughly knew where Jason's building was (which Trevor was near) and Trevor had no idea how to get me anywhere. i winged it and found him without making any wrong turns. i felt pretty good about that.

Moving
So i moved to Texas today. We started out on our adventure yesterday. We arrived and moved all of my stuff into my new bedroom. We passed a CVS sign right before we got to my new place and it told us the temp was 104. That is not even right! but we survived.
Jason, his friend Collin, Trevor, and i all embarked on this journey together. We were drove for about 15 hours. we slept in a Super 8 Hotel. We ate a lot of bad food, and talked a lot. Saturday was just about the most emotional day i have ever had. I went through them all. I cried...i don't know how many times. It was really hard to say goodbye to everyone. today was emotional too. i start work tomorrow and i am exhausted! i have to get up super early tomorrow. no good. no good at all.

Hatin'
Why does everybody gotta be hatin' on my new job. i will be working in collections. yes. i will be that person that calls and tries to get you to make your house payment. i know that i am going to have bad days where i get called all sorts of terrible things. i know. i get it. i realize that most people wouldn't want that kind of job. i am not sure i want this kind of job. but...it is my life. it is my job and my decision. i am tired of people asking me what i will be doing and then following up by saying..."oh i would never do that job!" or "oh are you really going to like that job?" oh yeah. you are going to hate on my new job? i have worked in customer service for a long time and i have dealt with angry customers before. i can handle it. i job shadowed someone while i was there a few weeks ago and it wasn't bad at all. and i am sure it wont be my job forever. but i am getting to move where i want to, and getting paid a lot more. i will be able to pay off my debts in a relatively short amount of time. that is what i care the most about right now. if i hate it, i will look for a new job. life will go on. i guess i am not sure why everyone has got to suck all the fun out of my new life/move/job? dumb.
*when i say "everyone" i don't really mean everyone. just a lot of people.

Summer
why is it that when i have finally decided to move on from Indiana and things are working out really well as far as moving goes, i am having more fun here than i have had in a really long time? I am going to be super sad to go. i have been all sentimental about everything lately. i am pretty sure i am going to lose it when i leave. i have wanted to do this for a long time but it is still hard. i have to keep reminding myself that once school starts, the friends i have been spending all my time with are going to be so so so busy. so it is good i am leaving now. Peace out, Indiana!
End
I really like to title my blog entries with one word. Sometimes it is hard to not repeat words and still make it an appropriate title.
So the end... Yes, it is the end of my days here in Indiana. My recent vacation spot has become my home, and home has become my vacation spot. go figure. I have been instructed, or threatened rather, that i am to blog often. very often. i am going to try my best.
I have 2 days of work left. i have liked my job the whole 3+ years i have worked here. ever since i have started looking for other jobs though, work has become a lot harder to enjoy. especially when i put in my 2 weeks notice. i am ready to be done. everything about work is tedious. things i never would have thought twice about before are huge annoyances now. why is that? i try not to show it too much. i am trying not to be one of those employees who stops working when they give their notice, but it is not easy.
