Winning 2

More good news today. I went into court today to get an extension on my alcohol treatment classes and to tell the judge about how I was ordered (by him) to be put on "work release," when I was in jail and that the county failed to honor his orders and they stuck me down in isolation for 25 days. He was shocked to see my documentation of how I was treated and how the sherriffs office failed to comply with his orders (which were specifically filed in a way that would have allowed me to continue classes).
So in short, after talking with him for about 15 minutes, he decided to dimiss the remaining 45 days of my case. I am now a free man as I head into Fall semester at school.
Now all I got to do is find an apartment in the next couple weeks. I cant fucking wait to have my own place again. I realllllly realllly dont want roommates.

I just have to make sure I stay clean off dope. That is going to be a big success indicator
In terms of classes for next semester; I have to take Latin 202 and finish up my foreign language requirements; Need to take a lab science and finish up my science requirements; Stats to finish up my math requirements; then I will take 1 more class but an easy one since Lat and the science are both going to be 4 credit hour classes. Probably use my last class on Macro/Micro economics.

i mean i don't mean that you haven't been on your own, i have too since that age. point is it's your mother and you shouldn't call her a nagging bitch in my personal opinion. maybe thats just how i was raised though.

We'll see how it goes. It's the only way I can get an apartment in my name, I have shitty credit.
I will have at least 1400$ to put down so that should be a good start on 2-3 months rent if I can negoiate a discount for paying cash up front. People usually are willing to work with you more when you show up willing to pay 25% of the lease right there in 100's

Got an advising appointment tomorrow morning at 10:30am, That will get my class schedule figured out for next semester. Then I have to go spend an hour or two over at Student Accounts figuring out why my refund is being held. Im guessing with that I just have to sign a promisary note saying I will pay back the money that I owe out of my refund or they might just hold my refund and automatically deduct the funds, but I am pretty sure they need me to sign off on it since they would be taking the money out of my loan or pell grant.
Just did my last hit
I still cant believe that my case is finally done with. I just have to keep my nose clean for the 2 weeks while the judge gets it signed off by the prosecutors and my public defender and the time to process it.
What a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. First time in 3 years that I dont have to be looking over my shoulder and constantly paranoid about cops
Time to buckle down for school. Got to get at least a 3.0 GPA this semester but I am shooting for a 4.0. I am going to surprise some motherfuckas

Can you get your hands on some methadone? way easyer to go to that, then quit. If you still need a last hit, you're still addicted.. I know it seems like the right thing to do is concentrate on the practical things you need to get done, but once you stop thinking about your next hit, everyday shit's gonna get way simpler to handle.
Part of the sickness (addiction) is that you don't see things (or think) like healthy people do. The best thing you could do, is ask the smartest person you know EXACTLY what you should do and do it, even if it doesn't make sense to you...right now.

i just got an email that my financial aid probation appeal went through and now i can get the pell grant and financial aid again.
super stoked for that, i just wish there was some way i could get the bad grades i made two years ago taken off my record. but since im gonna transfer out of this school when i get my associates degree and start my masters program at gsu i guess its not a huge deal since my gpa will start over once im there.

Nah, he kicked me out cause he didnt know I was doing dope in the first place. I kept it extremely low key and was never like nodding out on myself
Yeah I think I got one lined up for tomorrow. I will do that until I get my financial aid here in a couple weeks
Shitty to get out of detox and become homeless though

Make it two weeks. Then three. Then you get a prize.
I am really going to do my best
I am changing phone numbers again here in 2 weeks when I get some money
I could have used last night at the hotel I was staying at and I did the smart thing for once and completely distanced myself from the guy

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

Update- I now have 16 days sober; and this time around sober includes not just not using dope but not using weed, alcohol, or anything else. While dope is really the only thing I want to stay completely free from long-term, it has been nice being clean from everything and having a clear head for once
I am going today to look at a couple places to live and hopefully get out of the halfway house. Not because I dont want to be there, because of the area and the long commute to and from work/school each day.
Anyways, hope everyone here is doing well and I will keep doing the thing. Work starts Wednesday and school starts Thursday, so the games are about to begin. Wish me luck.

We'll see. It certainly feels like it this time. My attitude and frame of mind is completely different than it has ever been
I am determined not to make the same mistakes as before.
The problem is, the other times I got "sober," I was still using spice, I was still smoking weed, and still getting drunk. So I wasnt even sober, I just wasnt high on heroin.
You're right, only time will tell but things are already getting much better.

Good to hear. Things have been a lot different for me recently as well. Not for drugs but depression. Its kind of a drug in itself if you have been struggling with it long enough. I just refuse to start thinking negatively now no matter the situation. Hope you keep things on the up.

Thanks man, you too!
Good to hear shit seems to be getting better for a lot of people
It's about making the right decisions all the time, even when making the wrong ones may feel better at that moment in time

I have been moving around a lot these past weeks. From the house I was staying at to a detox center for 5 days, then downtown to a halfway house where I have been for just under 2 weeks. I am going to pick the rest of my stuff up here in a week when I get my new apartment. I will definitely make sure to get the stickers up when classes start. 60,000 students here we should be able to pull in some new members.
