Ha, the thread starter obiesly has seplling isseus.

I have to organise my brothers batchelor party this weekend. I dont really like my brothers friends...

I just had another cup of coffee and I'm about to go to bed. Maybe when I wake up, I'll have a chance to get some Cubs tickets.

I'm out. I'M OUT!

It's overcast and rainy today, which means its a Coldplay day. I only listen to Coldplay when it rains.

I have a lot of emery boards

Im lonely and homesick and my dog is having puppies RIGHT NOW.

AND

I watched the new DAY OF THE DEAD the one thats supposed to be a ROMERO REMAKE and

IT SUCKED

I mean, it was a mockery of anything ROMERO related. The only reason to watch it is to see how NOT TO MAKE A ZOMBIE MOVIE.

"I  MEAN, I POURED BLEACH ON IT AND... BLEACH KILLS.... JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING"

I  dont know if I should MAKE A THREAD about a movie that hasnt COME OUT YET...

OR IF I SHOULD WAIT TIL APRIL

but i feel like you should all BE WARNED WELL IN ADVANCE

I have to watch it again because I WAS TRIPPING THE FIRST TIME and ... I THOUGHT IT WAS MADE ESPECIALLY FOR ME TO LAUGH AT. OH MAN.

YOUVE ALL GOTTA SEE IT!

The "State of the Black Union" is on C-SPAN live right now.

What the fuck is that? Seriously.  That's bullshit.  I thought we were supposed to be one country.

 I just applied to some jobs.  Hostess stuff in restaurants, dorky family restaurants with Billy Joel on loop and dumb punny cartoons on the walls.  Yawn.  But I've got to do it, I haven't had a job since '05 and it's beginning to get kind of ... mean, to my poor parents who spend all their money on me.  

On the bright side, someone in the mall was wearing this shirt that said, "JUST BEET IT", with a picture of an extremely happy-looking little purple beet on it.  The beet wore snazzy white gloves and very shiny black shoes, as well as the cartoon anthropomorphic vegetables' obligatory Ray Charles sunglasses.  He was giving a cheery thumbs up.  An inspiration to us all.

My working pattern has been bizarre lately. All through the holidays, when I was available almost everyday, I was averaging one 4-hour shift a week. I'm not desperate for money, but I wouldve liked some extra hours while I had nothing better to do. School starts, and for the first two weeks, I have a total of one shift. Fine, I think. She (roster woman) realises that I'm going into final year and I don't want to much extra work pressure. But then, this week I've had three shifts, and next week I have four. What the hell. She's suddenly quadrupled my hours. It's going to be a busy week.

I just won $600 today with a football bet. I dont gamble that much and so its my biggest win ever. Im going to pay off my Creative Writing course with it.

Oh, Congratulations, Derek.  Gambling might be a little more tempting next time around.  Way to go!

Which Rutgers?

Oh, ok.  Everyone I seem to know goes to or went to rutgers Camden, which is not the nicest place in the world to say the least.

Ozymandias will forever hold a special place in my heart for posting this picture:

These announcements are pointless.

I love

American Idol is on Irish TV, Im rediscovering my crush on Paula Abdul.

This is awesome.  Exactly how those Westboro Assheads need to be treated.  Don't lay a finger on them, just thwart their vicious tactics.  It's better than making the civil rights martyrs or real martyrs, and as upsetting as they are to the grieving families, the fact that enough counterprotesters showed up to contain the hate must be a pretty good antidote.

Kat williams? Lil sis please. Im funnier than him without even having to drop the N bomb.

 I'm meeting my friend for a coffeehouse rehearsal today.  We've been friends since we were about three but have sort of drifted.  One of the things we've drifted in a lot is tastes in music.  The only common ground we had was Coldplay, who I haven't really listened to in years anymore and, I dunno.

It's my last year doing coffeehouse, ever, and I kind of wanted to do a set on my own.  I also had plans to do something with one of the science teachers, and with two of my friends with whom I did it in grade nine wanted to revive our group, Triple Entendre (our songs were all like "Strum My Guitar", "Sex Me Up, Buttercup", etc.), AND with this other girl to do Moon River a cappella which would've been cool if we could pull it off.  I know, though, that if I audition for coffeehouse with any of those other options I'll get in.  This is terrible to say, but we're just more popular than this other friend of mine is.  I might still get in with the Coldplay thing as well as whatever else I do, but it's unlikely.  Our rendition of "Green Eyes" is sloppy at best, plus Green Eyes is absolutely THE most clichee'd high school coffee house song we could possibly do.  But I don't want to hurt my friend's feeling.  So I'm not auditioning with anyone else, just the Green Eyes thing.  It'd just be rude to get in off anything else, right?  But I still have doubts about us getting in at all, and I don't want to not perform at my very last school coffeehouse.  Argh.  Not that I'll care anymore three months from now, but argh.

Manic depression is just the old name for bipolar disorder, so...I would see a new doctor.  Doctors like to jump the gun on the bipolar diagnosis (and I don't know why).

On Friday the doctor put two giant needles into my back (kinda like a spinal tap, but not): one in my spine and the other in the joint where my spine meets my pelvic bone.  I don't even know yet if the steroid injections are even going to help, but I am hopeful.  The doctors also called me a tuff girl, because I didn't get sedated or scream.  I was proud. 

Barca are winning their match and only for an Irish airline strike I would be at it. Dang.

You mentioned yesterday that you fly to Barcelona, and I found that odd until I looked it up on Google maps just now.  My idea of Europe was exremely distorted.   That would be one hell of a drive.  You must really love that city though if you're so willing to buy plane tickets so often to go see Barca play. 

Oh Yes I love the club, I often go two days without sleep just to get to see my team play. Next time I go I will write a blog about it. It involves 28 hours of travelling just to spend 12 hours in the city.

.

I only listen to Coldplay when they come on the radio. At work.

Off for 4 days and its my Bday, tits.

What does this mean, anyway. I know what a coffeehouse is, obviously, but you make the word sound like an event separate from the location. "Doing coffeehouse". Is this something other than just getting up in a coffeehouse and singing?

I was profoundly depressed today about where I work and what I earn and how mean everyone is. They are all so rude, them people what I have to work with every day, and then customers are all tossers aswell. I was wandering around town an hour before work planning on quitting if anyone I worked with was rude to me again today. Except I think I developed this aura from all the rage and people were only 25% as rude as they normally are with me.

I really was gonna do it though, I get paid buttons for this horrid job and I really think that perhaps if things get any worse with my supervisor (miserable bitch) I should just walk out because she won't give me a good reference out of spite.

Has anyone else ever been bullied at work? There's this hefty girl I liked from the start but she always turns everything I say into talking about how fat she is. On my first day she told me it was easy for skinny girls like me cuz with guys it's like 'flies to shit'. I was quite hurt at that one because it came out of nowehere and stuff, and I liked her then. Another day she called me a stupid fucking bitch for something that really wasn't my fault and I took the fall for her, covered her arse so I got all the reprimanding and at the end of the day she was talking to this guy about how shiny I was. Of course I was shiny! Sweating with rage!

My supervisor got me while I was working the other day and started taking my measurements in front of everyone and saying shit like 'See Amy looks thin but she's _______ inches here, that means she's 2 inches too fat to be a model!' all pleased with herself cuz of it. All the girls there are pretty big but they make shit out of how thin (or indeed 'too fat' I am) all the time. Sick of it, for £5.62 an hour? Pffffft.

I know this is really long but I figured I'd vent and ask to hear others' stories, so do tell!

pa is back.

*le sigh*

how are you?

better, thanks for asking. but still quite a bit away from good. though i have three weeks of rehab in front of me, so i plan on beng physically fit pretty soon.

I was a busy little Fecker today, still a bit more to do...

you busy little fecker

I can't decide what I want to eat for lunch today.  Normally, I'd get grilled chicken and steamed rice but the Manchu Wok has closed without warning, which I think really sucks.

My blackberry is being delivered today, and that doesn't suck, so I suppose things are balancing themselves nicely.

Also, I painted my nails a new shade of red and they look nice.

188416. I really try to think the best of people but it sounds like you work with some real low class losers. Fuck, people like that really piss me off. I really hope you can find another job cos nobody deserves to be tret the way those cunts are treatin you. Your supervisor did this shit in front of the rest of the fuck ups, she fuckin sucks at her job n it sounds like she has some real self esteem issues to pulla stunt like that. Fuck em all n especialy that low class piece a shit. I hope her self esteem issues devour her like a rampant cancer. Seriously, they aint  worth the steam offa your shit, find yourself a better job wiv good pay n hire some psycho to track them down individualy n chop the worthless cunts into little pieces. Fuck it, I'll chip in, it's a worthy cause.

Frank - I hink you're right, they aren't gonna give me a good reference so I'm just gonna leave when I'm either set up with a better job or when they push me too far. Saying that my boyfriend just started at 118118 and has his first live calls today and everyone was rude to him aswell, I think customers are all pricks nowadays. It's sad that people act like this so frequently now! I would never have dared go off on someone like these folks! My mum would have slapped me if I'd been a bitch see. Anyway, I could take people being rude if I was getting paid what he is but I'm not, am I? So fuck it.

Technically I have the education and experience to be in a real job, a well paying brilliant job, but it was a really bad time of year for jobs and I just had to go with what was available. It's really painful being treated like an idiot all day, I shed a few tears on the bus today listening to Modern Girl by Sleater Kinney when I went past my first primary school. It was really freaking me out this morning that here I am with free will and all that and yet I still go there at the right time every day and never tell a single person to fuck off even when they're being cruel or threatening. It isn't like I'll be homeless if I quit and I could get another job easily, but there's something making me stick it and I don't know why.

stonecoyote - I really appreciate your support and enthusiasm, but you're way harsh!! They are cunts, mind xxx

By the way, it isn't that my 'colleagues' really make me feel bad about myself, I know I'm alright looking and my body is slammin' hot and that every single one of these comments comes from their lack of self esteem, it's really that it's hurting my ego like they think I'm stupid and I feel on the verge of a tantrum all the time because I got into one of the best universities in the country and am generally better and more intelligent than all of them - but they don't care about that, they just want to talk about how I'm 2 inches too fat to be a model cause they know I'll take it. That sort of thing, does that make sense? I don't like that I work with mean people who are stupid and thus get branded as the same as them. I can't wear my personal achievements to make myself stand out so when they all pick on me I feel even worse and less accepted than ever. OH SIGH SOB MOAN!!

On Friday some guy name Ed basically pushed a couch on my leg.  Now I have a dark ass bruise starting at my ankle and ending past my knee,.

Er, it's a school event.  It's not even in a coffeehouse, it's in the cafeteria.  And no one actually drinks coffee unless they've brought their own because the stuff they serve is rancid.  People say "doing coffeehouse" like, "doing talent show" or whatever.

goddamn you kids and your newfangled slang.

I have to write a paper for the film Obaltan.  I slept through most of the movie.  It's due tomorrow.  Yay for procrastination!

Yay for sleeping!

I have the busiest part of the week over, Yay!!!!!

188416, jelousy's a terrible thing n it sounds like some of your co workers av a big fat dose of the old green eyed monster. Mind you from your description of most of your co workers it sounds like they like big portions. By the way 2inch's too big to be a model? aint that a good thing, considerin a lot of what I understand to be todays successful models seem to be sufferin from malnutrition. If that's how they judge people then it shows that their idea of a good read is last weeks hello magazine. It sounds like you have a future n that's probably what's pissin these fools off.

Some people are first addition hard back novels, some people are paper backs, some will never aim higher than magazine status and then there's the pamphlets of this world. Aim for the stars n leave the pamphlets to be dropped in the puddles on the walkways of life.

Amy, they probably sense that you're on course to transcend such mundane, depressing jobs and that in five years time they'll still be there while you're doing something cool and exciting.

Where are you going to Uni anyway?
