I’m back at school now, only on Friday nights. I petitioned a full art and graphic design class, and got in! There were 10 students petitioning. Hassaan let us all in. So the school’s graphic art lab has brand new iMacs. I can come here and look for cute pictures and look for a job, too. I use the wonderful new Macs. And the Internet is so fast here. I found the picture above. The part of school that I love is meeting so many new people, and learning from the great teachers, and just the fun of it. I recall once, someone saying to me “don’t you feel dumb being in school with all those younger students?” I was like “no”. I actually like that too.

I wish I had something really drama-based to write about, but I have nothing. I guess that would be good right?

Soon I’ll be getting my belongings back from up north. I think that next month Wade will get his employee JEff do drive down here to O.C. Even though my apartment isn’t even enough to keep all of my things in it, I’m glad that I got them from Larry. The only item that I may not be getting back is my sewing table. It’s my grandmother’s. It’s probably 100 years old. It has loads of sentimental value for me. And all of my sewing stuff in it’s drawers. But people like Larry couldn’t care less. Soon I won’t even need or have to talk to him at all, or ever again.

I’ve been searching high and low for a job. And now even more people are unemployed. My brother lost his job. And another friend also lost his job recently. My manager Jerry said we won’t have any work until January 2012. So obviously I need something before that time. It would be great to get a temp job, art-based, close-by to where I live. But I’d take almost anything at this point. I really dislike the desperate feeling of having to accept anything. I’ll keep looking and thinking how lucky I am to have even what I do have.

My kitty Nala woke me up this morning, meowing. She was so loud that I thought I overslept. So I got up and it was only 7:30! She then climbed onto my air mattress and began clawing a hole in the top quilt. She does this when she hears air coming out of a hole. But I looked, and no hole to been seen. She’s a funny kid. She’s the best company too.

The weather has been scorching hot. I drive in my car, and it feels like an oven. I leave my air conditioner on at home all day. Since the management pays my electricity it’s okay.

Last Saturday I went to a small pool party at sister Louise’s house. This is just one of the few pictures I took of her garden. Well it isn’t actually her garden. It’s the Catholic Diocese’s garden. She lives in houses that they pay for. And it seems that some people are weird about me having a camera. Because the last 2 times I used my camera, someone said something. I think I need to find new friends. It’s weird and strange that some people don’t like me having anything.
