My Horrible Summer (so far)

[Lancer]

Just tell her that at first you were hurt by the break up, but now that it's done you are becoming comfortable with it, that you hope the friendship will last forever...

Nice smile and no emotional baggage when you say it.

She'll be ringing your bell again before you know it, or you'll have peace with honor.

Likely the latter now that I think about it. A gal cut loose for the summer who is used to not being alone...

Forget it, there will be a likely mall chick at your new job (when you get it) who will be hot enough, but wanting all the finer things. Come to think of it, your doomed Imran.

[Victor Galis]

Imran, that's what you get for sticking around in Atlanta I left the city at the earliest possible opportunity (around the time Emory finals were finishing up, half a week after ours).

Bah, better you broke up with her. I saw her in the pics you had posted she looked like an uber prude Boring.

Done it (basically). But I still have to be nice to her... she's checking my mail and my apartment from time to time (to see everything is alright). Hell, she agreed to do it before we 'broke up', so that's what she gets.

Just applied to places in the mall... economy isn't too hot, so they aren't paying much. I think the telemarketing job might be the best thing if I can get $10-$12 an hour. *crosses fingers*

I didn't want to say it at that time though

If you're bored, then try driving around the country living out of your car for a couple weeks. It's great fun, and you won't default on your rent. Just make sure that you don't bring a credit card with you into the casino when you inevitably wind up in Reno or Vegas, unless you're certain that you've got an iron will.

Well, sorry to hear...but do try and put it in perspective! You got dumped, but the breakup wasn't as bad as it could have been, and everyone gets dumped at some point. It's a universal bad experience. As for the job thing, the one you want may still come through, and when it does, you'll be happy about it. Until then, I'm sure you can be frugal, stretch the money and be okay. Don't be too proud when it comes to earning some bucks to pay rent.

Above all, try and remember these aren't catastrophes, just little bumps. That way you can relax and still enjoy yourself during the summer.

Play nice paiktis.

Don't sweat the girl Imran, no big deal.

Anything but, paiktis... pictures don't tell .

It ain't the girl that is the main problem though... it's the lack of income. I NEED about $350 this month to pay rent. But I can't take a full time job, because I have the Prosecutor's Office job at the end of this month. If I fall short, I can ask my parents to rent me some, but that's not something I really want to do (I can just see the dissapointed face and the lecture about the expensive school).

That way you can relax and still enjoy yourself during the summer.

When I start working and collecting an income I will .

Thanks for all your wellwishes, btw. I want to thank you guys... this board has some of my true best friends on it (which is why I'm always here) .

[Traianvs]

w00tw00t! I'm still having hardcore exams.. I'd do anything to actually be you right now..

[Imran Siddiqui]

Let me clarify something... the main problem with the job thing is that I HAVE the Prosecutor's Job... only much later than I thought I'd start working. So any part time job I get now can't interfere too much with the 30 hours I'd be working for them.

Basically I need the Prosecutor's Job right now for my resume (I need a law job on there). If I had plenty of money in my account, I wouldn't mind so much, I just need to work there for like a month and it'd be ok. But I do need the money and I need to find a job that won't interfere with the future job I have.

So, it's very confusing and messy.

Its been a really surreal bit of summer so far with me hanging around home not doing much of anything until I head out for my job in Korea. Spending a week hiking with a girl who I used to have an enormous crush on and who I'll probably never see again (or won't see for at least a year or three) hasn't made things any less strange...

[Imran Siddiqui]

At least yours is surreal rather than pitiful, Boshko .

My father's friend just had a talk with the head of the Prosecutor's Office. He's already budgeted the money, so they'll try to extradite the process (it should take 2 weeks, but maybe they can get it down to 1). Let's hope.

[Asher]

Well Imran, look at it this way: At least nobody's going at your manhood with a knife.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Well I have been circumcized ... oh you mean like Bobbit .
