So far my summer has been pretty good. I've been living w/ my boyfriend, which has gone surprisingly well. We haven't had any major fights that made me want to make him sleep on the couch or anything. If we had any sort of disagreement, it was usually when I was nearing my period, so that's not unusual. I usually become a bit more snippy and touchy about things during that time, so I would always realize that and try to calm myself down before discussing anything w/ him. The downside of this summer has been not having a job. I had one, for a couple days, at the beginning of the summer, but the management was absolute s**t so I quit. Since then, I've been trying to track something down, but I have yet to get a call back from anyone. Even places that said they were hiring. You'd think w/ my cashier experience, someone would hire me, other than the s**t job, but no. It sucks. My boyfriend and I have been living off of his paycheck, so we've been pretty tight on money. We can pretty much only spend the money on food, and that's it. Especially since he has a cell bill to pay and rent and all that. I was going to contribute half of my earnings to everything, kinda hard to do when you don't have any to contribute. So as a result, I've been feeling really bad about not being able to pay my part. Especially since I insisted on paying half of my boyfriend's rent since we'd be using the same space and all, but that's not happening just yet. I think I'm going to pay him back later though. I'm really sad that I'll be moving out soon though. I've enjoyed staying with him. We do lots of fun stuff together, and I think it's helped us stay in a strong relationship. He understands me so well. I just kinda wish I could keep living with him, but I made a commitment to a housing contract at school. So if we are going to live together, it'll have to wait at least another year. I'm not sure if I want to live with him without a ring on my finger or not. I"m debating that. On one hand, it seems like a good idea to wait, but at the same time, I can't help but want to live with him. Maybe I could get an apartment with a good friend of mine.....we'll see what happens. I'll have to see what happens during this next school year. Anyway...That's just a quick update for me.
