Things are looking up

So, like it says in the title, things are beginning to look up. Yesterday I went to the bank with Brandon to cash my check. Come to find out they don't accept 3rd party checks anymore. So I got all discouraged and such. The teller at the bank asked the reason why I didn't have a bank account yet. I replied with an honest answer with, "My credit union closed my account due to money issues." So again, I was discouraged through everything. I wasn't going to get my check cashed, and I'd have to find some place else. Well the Teller goes on to saying that she would check to see if I would be able to open an account with them. A few minutes later; BAM; she could. So I said awesome, but I didn't have my ID. So she said that if I promised to come back today, she'd cash my check and I'd open an account with them.

So I woke up at 8:30 to get to the Secretary of State by 9. Went got another ID and went to the bank to open up an account. As I did this, they said that they would give me a Credit Card with $500 on it, just as long as my mom co-signs. So that will be coming also! And when I go back to school, they will give me another one! I'm excited.

Also, I plan on starting classes in the fall. Hopefully I can take 3 classes and do well in them. Last time around didn't work out to well. And now that I have free-time at my job, I can do homework and such here, as well as at Brandon's. I'm really excited for all this to fall into place, and really grateful today.
