RECENTLYUGH!!!
Last year I got my first babysitting job... and it was great!!!!! I got paid a lot, the parents were awesome, and the kids were so much fun! Then late last year, they offered me a job working every Sunday night for about $20. So I made about $80 a month. It was going so well, they were having me babysit even their friend's kids as they all went out, so on one night every now and then, I'd get like $70 dollars!! woo hoo!
So their friends were pretty happy with me. :-) And that was great. They told me that they would be having me babysit for them often as well. But then I noticed something weird going on with the people that I usually babysat for. They came home every night mad and yelling with frowns on their faces... even at me. And they weren't very nice.
This was the beginning of summer this year. I was freaking out, and was going to talk to them when my mom got an email from them saying that I hadn't been doing so well lately. Like when they came home, food would be on the floor, and toys everywhere. It never got that bad! I tried to get the kids to clean up whenever it happened. But I didn't want to yell at them or anything because they aren't my kids and I didn't want to punish them.
So conviently at the same time, the other people cancelled a job with me, and never asked me to baysit again. And the people who emailed were stark mad.
So I had to talk to them about it... and I found out that one of their daughters had told their parents that I made the mess, so they thought it was me. Blamer! But we talked and got it all sorted out. Then they said that I'd be back doing my Sunday night babysitting job with them this September. They also said that they'd have me babysit a few times in summer. Summer is over. September is almost over. They haven't contacted me since!
I think they replaced me with their original babysitter. So now I'm jobless, broke, and sad. :-P if you need a babysitter let me know. LOL But what am I supposed to do now?
So I've decided what to do about the worship band...
I'm thinking that I should do it. I mean, how often does this happen in life? Not much, and I've always wanted the chance. Well, now I have it, and it is just an answer away. I remember when I had a few solos in kids choir, younger than I was now. And I never giggled then, so why should I now? It's not like it's going to be the kind of thing like a sleepover and you can't stop giggling. Anyway, I might do it. I hope I do.
I'm so sad... :-( okay I'm not sad... :-) I'm just confused. :-~
I've always wanted to sing in our youth group's worship band on Sundays. But I never thought I would get the chance, so I basically kept quiet. Then yesterday, my youth pastor and his wife (My small-group leader) came up to me at church and asked me if I would like to do it every now and then.
Of course I was like, "Sure!" then I was like... "I'll think about it." The only reasons I'm having doubts is because I have a GIGGLE problem! When people stare at me, or something funny happens, I can't stop giggling. It does not involve self control either. It's kind of like a disorder... you know how when you have to sneeze, it's forced out, and you can't hold it back? It's like that. So crap.
I've also been having doubts about my voice. I used to have a really good voice... until tragedy struck! In February this year, I got very sick with Larengitis and Bronchitis. It must've hit my vocal chords pretty badly, because ever since then, I haven't been able to sing much.
I hope it all turns out okay. I've been praying about it.
