New beginnings...

Oh, many failures abound. I believe that most of them do not belong to me, but effect me a lot. This is going to be about school and a new job.

First: School.

I have registered for classes, but I need to change two of them. I need 12 credits to make full time and not lose my grant money. Also so that I can defer my loans for school. I have to figure out WHICH to take though. So far I have 8 credits that I KNOW I'm going to take. And then I have to find a 4 credit so it's an even twelve so I have enough money without paying out. If I would do a 3 credit and then find a 1 credit diddly class just for shits and giggles I would, but gdi. Can't find them and I don't want to scour the whole catelog, and I can't search the database by how many credits the classes are. Bollocks.

Then I still have to make sure financial aid goes through, and I put in my transfers from my two colleges so I'm waiting to see what they're going to accept as credits. Hopefully at least the basics and the basic computer class. I refuse to take that shit again for 20 bucks only to fail because the tests are stupid. There are 5 different ways to do EVERYTHING in microsoft products, yet they only want you to do everything ONE way, and if you click wrong, penalized. I click all over the place when doing stuff, I'm not wasting 20 bucks to take a test I know I'll fail.


AND NOW WORK: Oh. LOL. The USPS is a piece of work. I knew this was going to happen. I put in for the job, and they called me back this past Tuesday? She asked how soon I could start, and I said I had to give two weeks to my current job and she said, no joke, verbatim, "We don't got that amount of time. We need people now." Holy shit. You want people to drop EVERYTHING and burn bridges for you. Okaaay. Long story short, she was R U D E. She said she'd call back that day or the next day. She didn't. Instead, my mother called me this morning telling me to get there before 10:30 so I can do medical stuff and all. I'm like ajskfja because not so much sleep, going to bed at 3 am and mother calls at 9am. Mostly because I was venting to Kris about the rude lady.

So I go up there, annoyed because there's a chance that Orientation is going to be Saturday and Monday. Really. WTF. How do you call people in on Thursday and then turn around to start them working Saturday? Even if it's orientation. That's why they have shitty people. Because the only ones who can get a job are a. people who have no job right now [for varying reasons, not all bad]; and, b. people willing to drop their other job with no notice; otherwise known as discourteous bastards.

It was only supposed to take ten minutes, but APPARENTLY I had to do the interview and such too because the medical stuff wasn't supposed to happen until after I got the interview and was going to be hired e___e WELP. So I did the med stuff and took my interview. But LOL I had work at 12:30 and had no idea I was going to be there from 10:20 until 12. They don't seem to realize I have other obligations. They want you to drop everything RIGHT THEN and bend over backwards. If you don't, they skip right over you and just take someone else. It's such bull.

But now, at least orientation isn't Saturday~ But it's still Mon-Wed, 8-12. Oh, joy! Still less than a week's notice. And the new schedule hasn't even been posted for next week. So I have to go in tomorrow and fucking scramble around to try and GIVE people my shifts or change shifts so I can make orientation, because if I don't, *skips right over* and then I'll be shit out of luck. The other job that I really want that's paid more is still calling people, and my score was shitty, so I'm way down on the list. I'm hoping already being in the system will give me a leg up.

Even if it doesn't, if I can hack this 40+ hour a week job AND school I'll be able to get ahead on bills and have a nice nest egg. But I'm still kinda mad, because the way they're talking, I'm going to have orientation Mon-Wed, and they might ask me to go in to work WEDNESDAY NIGHT. I'm so pissed! It's bad enough that I can't go to Otakon now. But I can't even spend that night with everyone to joke around before they all head up. And then Cheza is still going to be in town until Wednesday, so I have to spend time with her, but I just. Don't know how I'm going to work this and still sleep. *cries*

My life. Full of fail. But at least I'll be able to pay Pan back for registering for me for the past two years >_>

Since December 5th at 8:54pm, I have gotten SEVENTEEN [17] calls from this one number. I have no idea who it is, I answered it once and thought it might have been my sister going 'Hellooooooooo', though I had no idea what phone she had. They called back to back to back and I rejected it every time. No telemarketer calls you at 10pm, since I'm sure it's quite illegal. And then. THEN. Final straw.

They woke me up at 7am this morning.

Oh. HELL no. I answered it, no response. Blocked that number SO FAST. But my phone shows they called at 7:02, THRICE at 7:04, 7:05, TWICE at 7:06, 7:07, 7:08, 7:09, 7:27. Who the hell DOES that at seven o'clock in the morning? And I was so pissed I couldn't even go back to sleep for a few hours. I don't know if I can report this or not. If I can, I would, just to teach the little bastards on the other end a lesson. I just don't know how to go about it aside from popping up at the local police station [which I don't know where it is. State Police station is around the corner, but they don't handle those types of things, I don't think.]

Then add on that my Grandfather is a lying liar who lies and is trying to get attention by calling other people liars [I went out and treated my friends to the movies with your debit card? Oh. I wish. I WISH.] then the day was just fail. Confronted him with it today, and he was like, 'I didn't say that D8' and I'm like, 'What, so my mother lied?', 'Well, [insert Uncle's name here]' and I'm like, Oh bullshit. He hasn't even talked to my mother since then. Talk about a slap to the face.

Only good point. My boss changed the schedule, so instead of closing with her today, I don't have to see her AT ALL. That's the best present of all.

EDIT: They called AGAIN. At 5:45 and 5:46. Seriously. WTF.

I just finished the last book published in the Dresden Files series. Changes.

You are an evil man. Evil, evil, genius man, Jim Butcher T^T

Fffff I can't help it. G-Gotta drabble it out...!



The last few months had been one of those emotional roller coasters people liked to talk about in songs or romance books. The forbidden love between a married man and his mistress, or something of that line of thinking. Yukino never thought it would happen to her. Even though she knew for certain that she liked Don and didn't love him like Soichi, it didn't make her feelings any less real. She had been pretending all the while she was in Veles. The old and familiar masks layered on one after another. The longer she stayed the more they were cemented in place and the more she fell out of touch with the real her. She was isolated, alone, and lonely, but she could only blame herself for going into hiding and breaking her promise to be herself.

( She couldn't help but think he was kind of like Asaba. He was cordial with everyone, but loved women. )

I'm sorry:




And

( I looked out my door and all I saw was WHITE. )

No work tonight, since the Deli was closed. *sighs* I spend almost all of my waking moments so far today watching RahXephon. A boxset I've had for 4+ years and never watched until now. From DVD 3-7, episodes... 10-26, I marathoned that shit with Andrew XD At the end, he was like 'Double u tee eff!' and I was like 'Lawl, Finally.' Now I have a headache from laying down for 6 hours watching it.

I finally... FINALLY updated my Firefox. I mean, I've been on the last version of 2.9.8 or whatever since it came out... and refused to update the damn thing to 3.0 since I hate losing my add-on compatibility.

First, I lost all my bookmarks. (屮ಥДಥ)屮 彡 ┻━┻

Then I went to FF Help and followed the handy dandy notebook instructions and got them back. Thank kami, because I don't even remember what most of those damn things are until I need them.

LJ Login, IE tabs, AdBlock, Flashblock, and LJ hook work. But my Black JapanMAX theme and Snap Links don't. I cry over the loss of my theme. It was the best black theme out there, and this new FoxDie doesn't compare for me, but I'll just... have to get used to it since JapanMAX hasn't even been updated to 3.0, much less 3.5.7 [which is what I got], and the default skin is FUGLY.

LJlogin ate all my screennames, but I don't really care since I have a list of those and will only add the ones I'm using. But anway. Huzzah for updating. FF is definitely faster now. Now I need to back-up all my files. If there's one thing I learned from my comps random semi!death it's that I don't backup nearly enough, which makes me wonder what the 1TB External HD I got was for. *watches it gather dust*

I lost my cellphone. ~_~ I actually lost it last Saturday. It's probably outside of Pan's house where I tripped on some random tube in her little rock garden thing because that's the ONLY place I haven't checked for it out of the 3 it could have been. But it's been pouring rain [or at least raining constantly] for the past 3 days? Totally a lost cause. The best I can hope for is to recover it and get the sim card out or something. Since I have insurance [haha, I always get it and finally I get to use it \o] I only pay 30 bucks to get it replaced. Considering I just HAD it replaced because of some weird problem, I'm actually more annoyed than not to have to get another one, even if I didn't have to pay anything before. It was in brand new condition.




Aaaand I replaced the band-aid on my finger. Quite deep, and there was this dried globule of blood on the side where it squeezed out from the band-aid XD;; But I super carefully pulled it off before peroxiding that shit to death again. e__e And then I added anti-bacterial cream to a band-aid and stuck that shit on and taped it up so it's sealed. I auto-compensate already and don't use my index finger to type. So my typing will get worse, and I didn't think that was possible >_>;;

I went to sleep at... 7pm? A little earlier I think.

I woke up at 12:30am cus... I don't usually sleep that late when I go to bed that early.

I thought 12:30am wasn't long enough to sleep, so I rolled over.

When I looked at the clock again, it was... 12pm?

Aside from being a little ache-y from 12+ hours in bed, I'm just annoyed that I didn't wake up at, like 10 or something.

So I'm off to get an oil change. *rolls away* I should be on tonight or something.

Okay. First, because I snorted [read: laughed my ass off]: Obama Calls Kanye a Jackass. Oh. el oh el.

Just read the comments.

Next, True Blood Season Finale. Eh. I knew what was going to happen, just not how. What I was really actually watching it for was to see what evil. ass. cliffhanger. they were going to pull in the last few minutes. Oh, they pulled one. I was kind of surprised as who else died though... They always get the short end of the stick. MAN.

Wh-Why the hell did you link me to this?!



CHORIIIISU!

Excuse me.

*throws self down the stairs*
