ties cut, bonds built

Relatively nice evening. Skipped church because I wasn't feeling well, didn't study as well as I could have, and talked to J's best friend for a bit. It was nice enough. =) Once J finally disentangled himself from my grasp in MSN. I started studying for a major A+P exam tomorrow. Oops. Anyways, I think I'm doing alright, if I can just remember that darned 3rd antibiotic pill every night and get better! But I digress. I cut some very damaging ties with some frankly very weird people I'm better off without... although they are rather amusing to watch bicker and fight amongst themselves! I almost want to see how they're going to implode from the inside out. Almost.

I also spent much of my 'studying time' after J actually went to bed (he logged back on a few hours later =D) looking at credit cards. I'm not sure which one to get, but I've narrowed it down to about 4 or 5 and am waiting for a consumer site to email me back with information. I'm thinking about going for a cashback, low APR, no annual fee kind of card. If you have ideas, please leave a comment! This is a big thing in my life right now, because it represents freedom to me... but no worries, I plan on using it like a debit card-- taking the money 'out' of my checking account (as far as I'm concerned) immediately after I use it. And I doubt I'll use it much. Checks and cash are much better for me to use, but I would like to start building credit while I'm young.

Yes, being 18 is very nice. I also want to get forest green highlights, take a roadtrip to see J, look more goth, chemically straighten my hair, get a second set of piercings in my ears, get a brazilian wax, buy some fun 'toys'... maybe even join political campaigns and stuff! I definitely want to register to vote at some point.

I think I'm going to like being an adult. =)

P.S. I downloaded Opera for free and love it... even more than FF, if that's possible! I highly recommend it, if you're able to.
