Boredom. It Haunts me. Everyday. Jobs seem to be scarce, and it's not like I haven't tried. I gave out probably 30 or more resumes, plus I went and tried to talk to managers. I also called back a few places to see what was up only to get a 14.5 sec interview which consisted of:
"what kind of experience do you have?"
"well I worked at a drug stor-"
"restaurant experience."
"I have never worked in one, but-"
"well I'm sorry this isn't the job for you , we need some one with experience."
"ok, thanks for your time" (more like wasting MY time)
Not to mention the fact that she was a complete Bitch the whole time who was not dressed in any manner to run a business. I mean there's casual then there is track pants with Crocs plus a sweater with a kitty on it and unwashed hair. Also, how does one gain restaurant experience if you need restaurant experience to work in a restaurant?? I'm pretty sure if I did happen to get a job there I would have called the health department. All the places that were hiring in the area were indeed restaurants so they indeed hired people with experience over me. My last hope is Wendys. Come on WENDYS!
It may turn out to be a very boring summer, and 0 income summer. woo.
Here I share my stories and experiences of living in a small town. My life is fantastically average and peculiar.

Oh movies...
I didn't watch the MTV movie awards because MTV is dumb and I have developed a strong disliking for it. Anyway, as it turns out Twilight cleaned up. Of course. Now I haven't watched the whole thing, but I feel as though the movies running against it had a bit of a hill to climb. Almost every kid between the ages of 10 to 16 love that movie. I don't even think they know why they like it. Probably because it's cool. I'm not saying it's a bad movie, I just fear that people are going to close themselves off to real movies. Movies that get you right in the gut and tear out your insides with emotion. I probably will watch Twilight one day, and who knows I might even like it (although Buffy vampires are better hands down).
Real movies are out there, but you have to look for them. A good place to find them is in the 70's and 80's. I love old movies like The Exorcist, Ghostbusters, The Bluesbrothers, the Rocky Horror Picture Show, etc. They are basically movies that will never die.... I watched Stripes with Bill Murray the other day, AH sooo good. I recommend it. Good fun humour, and classic actors. Old movies are like fine wine they only get better with age. Watch Stripes.

Bordom Hurts
I've been out of school for a month or so and I'm having a terrible time trying to stay amused. I can't find a job anywhere. I'm really hoping that McDonalds hires me, I'm at the point where I don't care anymore.
I've trying to fill my time with productive things, like sewing, reading, writing, cooking, etc. I can't seem to get the ambition to do much else. What I should do is write a script and make a short film of sorts, or just make a video.
I absolutely hate sitting around all day, it hurts deep in my abdomen. I don't want to been viewed as part of the local-jobless-scum, the people that don't like to work. I like to work, I want to work. I like this thing that comes with it called "money", oh and don't forget the satisfaction of getting a paycheck.
I've also developed a really bad list making problem. I make a list of things to do during the day and try to get as many done as possible. The more I get done the better I feel about the day. It's upsetting that the only accomplishments I've been making lately are completing lists. Then again they may be big accomplishments on that list...soooo. yeah.
I would also like to announce that everyone tries dipping their chocolate chip cookie into a cup of coffee instead of milk. It is a delicious way to make your day :) and that certainly did rhyme! weee. Now this is boredom typing. But no really, try new food combos.

Other Value.
It's very unfortunate that I'm growing up during a time where the world is in a crisis, a human crisis. Our only enemy is ourselves and I don't understand why few can see this. People have stopped caring. They've stopped caring about themselves, the environment and even their own kind and are mostly preoccupied with filling their wallets. Money has become more important than anything, even love and respect. People have become blind they don't see the real world anymore they see the pretend one. The one that the TV shows us where life is perfect, where boobs are perky, hair glistens, and everyone is rich. Instead of watching what you wish you had, maybe you should look around and see what others don't. Or how the earth is getting warmer, and how our water supply is decreasing, or how many people are affected by cancer. Or even just go outside and appreciate what you have! Look at the trees, the sky, smell the flowers. Maybe then people will start to see the real world instead of the pretend one in a box (or I guess a flat screen now.) Then maybe they will realize that there is more value in their life then they thought. It's not all money.

Seriously?
Ok, so clearly I'm lame-core to the extreme. Why? Firstly: I used the word "lame-core" in a sentence, and secondly: I always start something and never keep going with it. I thought this blog thing would be a swell idea, until I forgot it existed. Well, I'm back-in-business (yeah i'm cool shit) for the time being. Hopefully, I will be writing for others as well as for myself as time progresses!
So what's fun I can write about? My wisdom teeth were fun. Yes. Apparently for a girl my size I had rather large wisdom teeth and they seemed to be rather fond of me. They didnt' want to come out. A procedure that takes normally takes about an hour took almost 2 for me. I was awake the whole time....but all crazy on that nitrous oxide or whatever they give you. Everything was funny. A fuzzy floated by and it was funny, the light was funny, I almost started belly laughing a few times...but saved myself. It started off ok, then I heard a great cracking sound. Turns out he had to break my teeth to get them out. Worst sound EVER. Then, while pulling one of the top ones out, the freezing wore off. Now, I can remember everything that happened...but I'm having a hard time with remembering what exactly I was doing. I'm pretty sure when this happened I began to produce a sound with my throat not many had heard before, and I think a few tears escaped. By the time it was all done, I was a sore, swollen, drugged girl. I could hardly walk. Although it was rough, all is well. It had to be done and that's all there is to it. I'm sure there are others who have had to go through much worse. I'm just happy we only get one set of wisdom teeth.

Back!
So I'm back in school and all that jazz. Well, I've been back for a while actually, I've just been too lame to write a blog....till now. Yeah so what to write about is a problem. I might just type and see what random blabble spews from my brain. I think I want to make a salad for lunch.
Anyway. I've been lucky so far, I haven't come over with a case of severe homesickness yet. A little bit, but nothing too severe. I mean I miss my family and all that but I kinda like doing my own thing.
On another note. From where I'm sitting I see my ninja turtle. It's Donatello. They are possibly the coolest heros ever. I mean they relate to the generation that watches them, it portrays a family unit that shows love and respect towards one another, you see social interaction between people with different views on things and that are of different race (splinter is a rat), and they are friggin turtles who can FIGHT. Donatello is definitely my favorite, he's funny, smart and fights with a weapon that's dangerous but not necessarily lethal. Michealangelo comes in second because he is the crazy one. Rapheal is third because he's full of teen ANGST. Then there is Leonardo the more mature of the four. Does anyone remember the series where they were in costumes and there was Venus (i think thats her name) the girl ninja turtle? or when they met the power rangers? Crazy.
I just realized I wrote a whole bunch of crap about Ninja Turtles....i think I better..uh.... go.

It's already over.
Christmas is over. It blows my mind how much work some people put into the event and how fast it whips by. I mean, some people spend a shit load of money and must have their homes look just perfect with all the modern decorations and kitchen pieces. Honestly, who cares. Decorations are nice, our house has a few, but there is no need to go all Christmas-Psycho and make it a "winter wonderland" in the home. It's not where you are it's who you're with! I spent my holidays with my family and friends. Nothing was super fancy, just basic and homey the way I like it. I woke up and opened presents with the fam, then had a good breakfast and we later went to my Aunts and Uncles for a pretty awesome dinner! None of it was fancy shmancy. I even got to see an Uncle I haven't seen in years!
As far as gifts go, I received some pretty sweet stuff like a new cell phone, a popcorn maker!, a fuzzy blanket, etc. I like to receive gifts, and I love to give them to see reactions and make others feel good! I really dislike people who only want gifts, it's not what it's about, but what the hell do I know?
I ate way too much over the holidays! But holiday food is soooo good.
