What makes me laugh, is that I live in pretty much the dead center between SeaBreeze and Darien Lake. And yet, for some reason we always went to darien lake.
Well today, for the first time in a long time, we are actually going to SeaBreeze. I'm really excited because I havent been in such a long time.
I will deffinately be back on after I go to add to how my day at seabreeze was. I think its going to be good. I'm going with my brother, his wife, my sister, and my nephew. Should be a fantastic time!

spoiled little brats
Ok, so I know it's summer and everything, and I know that I am only 19, but really, I think I work harder than any other 19 year old I know.
I have 2 jobs, (which this is the first summer I haven't had 3), and I work a steady 40 hours at my one job, and then I work friday nights and weekends at my other job. So over all, I am putting in probably 60 hours a week, plus still having a social life.
But even though I work 2 jobs, I still feel like I could do more. Last summer I did 3 jobs, I worked 80 hours in a week, and you know what, I really liked it. I was able to afford to do all the things that I wanted to do with no problem.
This summer is harder for me because I'm only working the 2, and my bills have gone up because I just bought a new car... :) A 2010 car to be exact, brand new with 8 miles on it when I bought it. But I don't care that I am paying a lot more, I have a brand spanking new car, and I can officially say that I have the newsest car out of anyone in my family.
I get so frustrated at people my age, people think that mommy and daddy should pay for everything. The day I turned 16, my parents said that the only thing they were paying for were basic school supplies, and medical charges. If I wanted a cell phone, a car, to dye my hair, to go shopping, that was all me. And I'm glad they did that, because I know how to save money, I know how to fix things before throwing them out, and I know that what I am working for is to support my lifestyle, which I'm not gonna lie, I really like nice things. Nice cars, nice computers, cell phones, and lots and lots of clothes. I love to buy things, which is why I need to work 2 jobs, but I am responsible enough to make sure all of my bills are paid.
I hate when my friends complain because their parents wont buy them something, or they have the money for it, and just want mommy and daddy to buy it anyways. I think the most pathetic are the kids who have a credit card that their parents pay, or those who can call up their parents and tell them to put more money in their accounts. It's rediculous! I mean yeah, I kinda wish my parents would help me on a few things, like school, I am putting myself through school with no help from my parents besides a signature for co-signing. But I'm glad in a way because when I get out, I know that I myself have put myself through school and will be proud of myself for it, not many people could do it themselves.
Overall, I'd like to say that to all you spoiled little brats who get your mommy and daddy to buy you everything, I just cannot wait for you to get thrown out into the real world and get your ass handed to you because you can't handle being an adult. GOOD LUCK! I know that I will be prepared!

Tractors...
So the funniest thing happened to me today, well funny to me...
I was talking to my friend on facebook chat, who lives in Rochester, and like IN the city. I was complaining about how i was late to work, but it totally wasn't my fault. So he asked why, and I told him its because I got stuck behind a tractor and there was no way to pass him. He didn't respond for a few minutes so I asked if he was still there.
He finally answered back and was just like, "I'm really confused. What do you mean?" So I told him again, that I got stuck behind a tractor on my way to work. Finally he was just like "What do you mean a tractor? Like it was driving on the road? Where was it going?"
He literally has never seen a tractor before, and especially not driving around on the streets. He didn't even know they were street legal. Where I live, it's almost more common to see tractors going from farm to farm than it is to see cars. And there is only one road that goes through town, so you really can't get around them either.
I guess I never realize that things that happen in small towns are so unusual to people who have never lived in one again.

Living in a Small Town
Living in a Small town is not something many people could actually do. It's a little strange for many people, especially city people, when I talk to them about my town and the things that go on in it.
For one thing, I think the hardest thing for people to get used to is that in such a small town, you do really know everybody, and unfortunately, everyone knows your business. You could never skip school, you had no where to go where there wasn't someone who knew your parents, or knew someone who knew your parents. That made for fantastic attendance records!!
Something else that is kind of funny, is that everyone knows what you drive, and when your parked somewhere weird or different, so many people will stop by and see what you are up to. Or heavens forbid you try and walk anywhere, person after person stops to see if you need a ride.
My town is so small that I only have 1 stop light. We just recently got our first blinking stop sign. This makes my friends laugh, because they say they can see at least 5 from their houses. There is only 1 main road that goes through the town, and only 1 main intersection.
Something that many city people do not see often are that there are sometimes more tractors on the road than there are cars, and the tractors can sometimes take upboth lanes because they are so big. Its always nice to see everyone wave at the tractor drivers too, no one gets annoyed or pissed off at the tractors, which I think is something you can only find in a small town.
Overall, I must say that I really do enjoy living in a small town, and I wish to forevre live in small towns, after going to school in buffalo, I know what city living is like, amd what small townis like, and would choose small town 10,000 times over living in a city.
