Best Spring Break EVER

P.O.V. of a Control Freak (this story is not real and completely fiction)

     Oh my, would you look at the date and time? It's already 9:10pm on March 28, 2013. Only a couple more days until our week of fun begins! SBXIII! Wow! So much to do, so little time! I should really start getting everyone together about the date and time we are all heading to the beach--because that is where we are going (I planned for it). There are 12 of us going and we have a total of 4 cars. We could have 3 people to a car; or maybe 4, 4, 2, 2; or maybe 3, 5, 2, 2; or maybe 5, 4, 3 and only take 3 cars! Oh, but we have to much stuff to haul around. Four cars is a must! This should have been settled ages ago like the other day when I planned that meeting at Starbucks. Unfortunately, one of my friends "could not" make it. It is now postponed to this Saturday. This is too close! We need to have everything planned 3 days prior at least. Everyone needs to have had their payment of the beach house paid by tomorrow at 3pm. I will make that deposit at 5pm, sharp. Why can't we all just be as responsible and prepared as me?

*sigh--

     WTF?? Another one of my friends just said they couldn't make the payment tomorrow because her parents are "out of town." Who even does that? Crunch time. It is now 9:20pm. I will just pay for her share and she can pay me back. Yeah. That seems alright. We can get the deposit paid and continue on with planning. The beach house. Maybe I should talk to the owner. Does it have enough rooms? Is there a tv? How many bathrooms? Is there even indoor plumbing? OH DEAR, so many questions, so little time! Why did I have to get stuck with the planning job--oh, that's right, I didn't want anyone else screwing this up. That is fine. I can finish this job and finish it well. As long as everyone follows my directions, this will be the best spring break ever...

The Greatness of the iPhone ♥

Life as we know it--well, for most of us Johns Creek denizens-- revolves around oh-so-precious pieces of technology (hint hint from the title, I am talking about the iPhone).

I can't even begin to explain how much I use my iPhone. I literally have it with me every where I go. I have it 24/7 for all 365 days of the year. It all started that one faithful day of my freshman year of high school. My dad was getting a new phone....SOOOOO... GUESS WHO GOT HIS OLD IPHONE 3!!

That's right.

ME.

I was such a cool cat, going around with my iPhone (this was before practically everyone had one).
As the iPhones advanced, I eventually upgraded to an iPhone 4.
I am completely and utterly addicted to it. I admit. I literally cannot have it away from me for long periods of time. I always have it with me in school. It's usually in the most accessible pocket of my backpack--and to be honest, I do have it out in some class period.

At home, I spend most of my time texting people (rather than doing that Pre Calc homework that I need to catch up on), calling (when I should be finishing up my project for Spanish), and last but not least: SNAPCHATTING.

The most addicting app for me. Basically communication with friends through pictures -0-

I really need to get rid of my iPhone because it takes LOTS and LOTS (a prodigious amount) of time out of my schedule. I also have to admit I do become a little more rebellious with my parents since I have the freedom to do so much anyways. With the iPhone I can pretty much do anything that I can on the computer.

:P

iPhones suck!! But they are so great!! **sigh

7. Satisfaction -- I am very happy, ecstatic even. I have accomplished all the long-term goals I have set for myself. I believe I would be the one responsible for my feelings. I'm sure the support of my family and friends would help along the way, but in the end it would all depends on how I take responsibility and control over my life.
