Room has to be cleaned today, or at least this weekend.
And I need to learn to keep it clean, so it doesn’t get this bad again. I’m about to be working and taking about 14 hours of classes this semester. So I really need to learn to get organized or I’m going to be swimming in dirty laundry by November. XD

Now I'm back with family and it is difficult because I don't buy the food at this house and my family is *very* into meat. So I'm hoping that… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I work part-time as an assistant in the biology lab(s) at my university.

I’m excited!
I’ve applied to Jo-ann Fabric and Craft store, Michael’s, UPS, JCPenney, Kohl’s, and Ulta. That’s just in two days, so I’ve already quite surpassed my “apply to 5 places a week” goal. lol. I will try to keep this up, eventually SOMEONE has to call me.
