I almost made it to CIFR this year. I've got my LVN after taking the N-CLEX LVN. I worked in a doctors office part time in Frisco where I graduated high school. The next school year is about to start. It's mid July, I've moved in with some Juniors and Bailie to get out of the dorm rooms. It's a five bedroom two story house. I will be on the second floor with Bailie and the three other guys living there.

It's going to be interesting. They don't really party unless they truly want to party. I've been having a crazy idea to try on the boys in the house. We all moved in a month before school was even supposed to start.

They put us girls in the far side of the upper level to keep us more 'safe' as they like to call it. Bailie and I share a bathroom and the boys share the other. There's one downstairs off the living room for the partiers so they don't have to go upstairs and possibly destroy our personal bathrooms.

I got a new comforter for my new room and decided to leave the walls the color they were when I moved into the room.

When it comes to the bathroom, Bailie and I are different

When it comes to the bathroom, Bailie and I are different. I have aqua towels and black wash clothes while she has pink towels and white wash clothes. Luckily we keep the bathroom door locked during parties unless one of us has to use it.

Moving into a house with boys was definitely a challenge. She took it rough. I brushed most of their stuff off. You could tell these guys have lived together in the same house before. They did not care what we thought though. That's probably what upset Bailie the most.

The first day of classes was the most fun. I was finishing up my basics and had a job at a clinic that was part time since I rodeo on the weekends. Most of my coworkers are eager to hear if I've met a cowboy or not. I just can't wait until this season starts up.

Everyday when class was over, I would go to the clinic and change into work clothes before working until it was closing time. Some days it's three hours, some the full eight if I don't have class that day. But usually on the weekends I play drinking games with the boys.

My favorite is Ring of Fire. We also like to play Jell-O shot jenga roulette. That game is when you take different kinds of alcohol and put it in Jell-O shots. Then they're either super sweet or super sour and you do not know which you are getting until after you have thrown it back.

We all get scorned over that game. I hate it. But it's always fun to play at a party.

My phone buzzed as I stepped out of my class. 'Practice meeting at noon.' Coach. I shook my head before continuing to the parking lot. Keeter met me in the parking lot. "Hey mind if I hitch a ride?" He asked. "Nope." I said as we got in my truck. I cranked it a few times before it tried to start and quitting on me.

I got out after popping the hood trying to find the problem. "F**k. I just had it serviced before coming here." I said. "May I look?" Keeter asked. "I guess." I told him. "Call Winston. He can come pick us up." He said. He tried to find the problem. No avail. Winston pulled up behind my truck.

"Is the battery bad?" He asked with a rolled down the window. "No I just replaced it last month." I said. "Gas full?" He asked. "Yeah." I answered. "Come on. We'll look at it after the meeting." He yelled. Keeter slammed the hood as I locked the doors. I got in the backseat moved to the middle.

"I think it's time you get a new vehicle Remi." Winston said. "Probably. It was my dad's truck before he let me have it in high school." I said. "If we can't fix it, then we are going to the nearest dealership to buy you a new vehicle." Winston said. "New but used." I told him. "Brand f**king new inside and out." He said.

I didn't argue anymore with him. It's pointless. I live with Winston, Josh and Keyston. Usually we call Josh by his last name, Keeter, and Keyston by his, Davis, it helps with the confusion when we are yelling out names.
