Title says it all. I'm going to get promoted! Yay me! All my supervisors love me, all my managers love me, so I'm getting promoted to front desk! :D I'll probably start up at front desk in October. I had a training session tonight, and it was way fun. It's just that all my snack bar buddies hate me for abandoning them...And one person in particular is mad that she's worked in the snack bar for 9 months, and I've been here for about 4 months and that I'm going to front desk before her. I laugh. :3
Also, the best part of training tonight...
HIDE AND SEEK IN THE EMPTY REC CENTER. :D
So, 3 people there got really frustrated with me, because I wouldn't tell them who I've kissed before. So I ran off, they grabbed these huge exercise balls and chased me down. I bolted down the hall, into the elevator, got off on the 3rd floor, sent it back down to the 2nd floor without me on it...I bolted down the track. I then realized Sarah was gaining on me! There was only one place to go. Down. I glanced to my left, no stairs or elevator. Solid wall. I glanced to my right...PERFECT. It was a gap in the wall, and a fence preventing people from falling off. It led to the Junior High gym...Sure it was a 10 foot drop off, but I did it...I jumped to the lower track! Sarah stared at me in awe. I had gotten away! I proceeded to walk casually around the lower track a few times that circled the junior high gym. I then decided to leave the double doors...There was Ashley as I walked out! She had used her magic supervisor key to get in there! She had me cornered. I made a break for it, narrowly escaping the giant exercise ball...I then ran to the 2nd floor above the ice rink...i went for the elevator, got in, closed the door, and went to hit the 3rd floor button! But wait, there was no 3rd floor button! It was only a floor 1+2 elevator! I didn't press any buttons...But I went down. That's when the doors opened...And Natalie and Sarah were there. I got pelted with balls...
Great times great times. :)

Back in the Loop
Well, I'm back into the hectic loop, and I'm holding on to make sure that I don't fall off this crazy ride called "School Stress".
School was fun the first day. I'm gonna like my A-days. I know this sounds hilarious, but I think my first period teacher is hot. If she was 10 years younger and single, I'd totally go for her. Choir is my most favoritist class. :) I love to sing!~ And the best part is, sometime next year I'll be better at it...Maybe around February. I've convinced my mom to make an appointment for me to get a physical sometime around then to get my nose checked out and possibly fixed. I think I have a 'deviated septum' or whatever it's called haha. It's just where there is always fluid in my head. If I've never told you, I can't smell. I can only smell rancid things. I also don't know if my taste will improve either...but I hope it does when I get this surgery! So I can't smell, and my nose is always plugged. There has never been ONCE in my life that I can remember being able to breathe through my nose. It bugs me! So I can't wait til then...I can have a functional nose! haha. K enough about that...
Where were we? Oh yeah. School. Here's a math problem. School + Giving a kid to ride + Crazy Mother = Dead grounded Kevin. Let me sum this story up for you all...
Friends mother calls me and offers to pay for my gas if I take him to and from school every day. 100% of gas. Not 50%. Not 10%. Not 63.67%. 100%. I ask my mom about it, my mom agrees and says it's fine. Big whoop, I wake up 5 minutes earlier than normal, I get home 5 minutes later than i would normally have. That's not too bad for free gas. So this morning I pick him up, get to school, etc. After school I found him, and took him to our work since I work with him. He had a shift at 2:30, and when I dropped him off I had to run in and talk to my boss about something before she left. So then when I'm done talking to my boss, I see Natalie working at snack bar so I decide to stop and chat with her for like 20 minutes. I then decide I should get home. I get home at 3:10. My mom is waiting for me, has my nephew and is feeding him his bottle. She starts doing a 'whisper yell' which is still fairly loud, thus making the baby fuss and start crying. She blames ME for MAKING him cry. Wowow.
So, she puts him in his crib and then she comes to yell at me more. (My speak will be in bold by the way.) "Where were you!? WHY ARE YOU SO LATE!?" "I had to go drop off the kid at work and I also had to talk to my boss before she left while I was down there. I told you last night where I was gonna be after school, remember?" "You told me you would drop him off at his house THEN go to work to talk to your boss! YOU LIED TO ME!" "No, I told you word for word where I was going. It's all fine." "I didn't give you permission to take him to work! YOu can't be his chauffeur you know!" "I'm not. Just to and from school. He had a shift 10 minutes after school, so I decided to drop him off since I had to talk to my boss." "-insert exaggerations, lies, swear words here-....I don't want you taking this boy to school anymore! If I find out you take him, you're going to be in SO much trouble! Tell him immediately that you changed your mind and can't take him anymore." "Fine whatever..."
-30 minutes later in my manager's office with friend I drive, 2 managers, and another girl-
"...And that's the story. My mom is insane. Isn't that totally unfair? I'm still gonna give you a ride though. I'll talk to my dad and he'll understand." -Everyone-: Yeah, that's really stupid. Manager 1-"Your mom seriously said that stuff? She's hilariously crazy!" (Favorite quote of the day)
So I get home from work, and my mom is like "Did you tell him you can't give him rides?" "Yeah. I did. (Not a lie, technically I told him that I am not supposed give him rides, but I'm not enforcing it. :))" So my mom was like "K. I told Dad too to make sure that you don't take your friend." I go and tell my dad the story, and he laughs. "Mom's story is WAY different than what you're telling me. Sure, take him, I don't care."
And that's the end of THAT story...I'm just kind of venting a little bit. But like you all have decided to read this long entry.
By the way, I need to think of something in nature that I can relate to. I need to write a poem for english about it. Someone give me some pointers please. So far I've thought that I can be a River, Rain, and a cloud. Yeah. lol.
Oh, I also got the evil supervisor fired from work! Yay me!!

Music is the best thing in the world. I just got a batch of new songs that are amazing!~

So Long, Sweet Summer
"So Long, sweet summer. I stumbled upon you and gratefully basked in your rays. So Long, sweet summer. I fell into you, and now you're gracefully falling away. Hey Thanks, Thanks for that summer. It's cold where you're going, I hope that your heart's always warm. I gave you the best, I gave the best I am."
-'So Long Sweet Summer'- Dashboard Confessional-
Where did the summer go? It went by in the blink of an eye, but the memories will stay forever. The great times I hung out with people, the great times I had at work, the great times camping, going to Lagoon, and everything else I have failed to mention...It was all just so great. Anyways, enough of the chit chat about no more summer.
Work Drama. ABSOLUTELY HORRID.
Long story short, my supervisor got mad, said some things he shouldn't have to me and my co-worker, and we had to tell what happened today to our Managers. Man oh man is he busted. His story versus mine and my co-workers. Amazing though, nobody likes him, everyone is happy that he blew up and said some things he shouldn't have, and everyone is hoping he gets fired.
Anyways, School will be horrifically fun to start again on Monday. I'm totally ready for school, and I'm totally ready to show off the real me for all to see. Even at the stomp the other night, there were several people that came up to me and were like "Kevin, is that really you? You look so different, in a good way!" Man that day was fun...Paradise Bakery, The tomatoes, the eating tuna with a spoon...LAGOON. Great times there. I just really hope Sarah finds/found her phone!!! Hopefully it's not sleeping with the fishies in the pond at the bottom of wicked...Poor thing....Amazing day right there. Haha.
To the friends I never hung out with this summer more than once, I'm sorry. We really must hang out during the school year.
So Long, Sweet Summer.
Don't Wait, Don't wait. The road is now a sudden sea, suddenly deep enough to lay your armor down, lay your armor down...

The Resolution
Okay. I've got time to kill, so I decided to get the lyrics from this song. It is set for release tomorrow, but it is streaming through the band website. I absolutely love it!
~~~~~~
The Resolution Lyrics
Jack's Mannequin
There's a lot that I don't know
There's a lot that I'm still learning
But I think I'm letting go
To find my body is still burning
And you hold me down
And you got me living in the past
Come on and pick me up
Somebody clear the wreckage from the blast
And I'm alive And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness
I just need light I need light in the dark
In the search for the Resolution.
The bars are finally closed,
So I tried living in the moment.
Til the moment it just froze,
and I felt sick and so alone.
I can hear the sound
Of your voice still ringing in my ear,
I'm going underground,
But you'll find me anywhere I'll be.
And I'm alive And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness
I just need light I need light in the dark
In the search for the Resolution.
I need a light in the dark in search for the resolution,
The Resolution,
The Resolution.
Hold me down,
Then you hold me down,
I'm alive And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness.
I'm alive And I don't need a witness
To know that I survived
I'm not looking for forgiveness.
I just need light I need light in the dark
In the search for the Resolution.
I need a light in the dark in the search for the resolution.
I need a light,
I need a light,
Resolution (Light in the dark)
Resolution (Light in the dark)
For the Resolution.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The lyrics may not be too accurate, since it is 8:30 in the morning. Haha. But this song is truly amazing...I expect you all to download it tomorrow off of iTunes!

I've realized that every song has a literal meaning, and a deep, symbolic meaning...Music is amazing. And by the way, I will be gone until Friday! Bye!
