This Green Tide Won't Change Me

So this is a blog...

Hurray for new apartments!
Shaun and I are slowly turning this old apartment into a fresh start for us. It's pretty exciting to get to decided all of those little things for yourself. Like what kind of lamp you want in your living room. Or what color the kitchen should be.
Nothing like this was important to me before we moved. Now it feels like an invigorating experience. Lame and exciting.

My little sister's prom is tonight. I know she's going to look beautiful. And I'm very proud of her for deciding to go without a date. She knows how to have fun without some dude on her arm. And she knows she can do anything she wants to do regaurdless of the stupid social norms that are attached.
Some days, I wish I was more like my sister. Her opinion is a solid one, and if you get in the way of what she has planned, you're in trouble. I feel like I let myself get walked on sometimes.
Like at work. This is the second time I've applied for the Head Cashier position, and this is the second time they've dicked everyone around and delayed the answer. I'm worried that if I don't get it, managment will continue to look over me for promotions and they will eventually just assume I'm going to do all the work without the pay. I'm worried I won't argue with them about it.
On the other hand, I'm pretty worried that if I do get the position I won't be able to handle all the responisibilities that come with it. Or I'll try to be too nice and I'll get walked on anyway.
I need to stop being afraid I guess.

Here's to a better day ahead.
