My Wife & Kidz

Well, since Sears wants "long term employees"... I sort of found more job opportunities. One is a clerical job at a local law office. The other is as a sales rep at Staples. I figured if I got both of them, that I could work at the law office full time and the store part time. Sounds like a lot of work, but my mother held 2 jobs for 20 years so it can be done. :) if I did do it though, I'd feel very accomplished. Working in a law office may look very good for law school and future jobs/internships :D

Right now I'm watching My Wife and Kids. Its the episode when Jay and Michael ran into one of their successful, gorgeous high school friends. Jay feels shamed because she isn't as accomplished as she was, having 7 kids, and meanwhile working on a political campaign, working for a magazine and having a body that looks like stays in the gym 5 times a week. LMFAO now who the heck does all this? I think its funny, but ut reminds me of what the situation will be like years from now when I run into some my high school friends. I wonder if they will have accomplished as much as I have or will I be the one that feels shamed. Not that I want anyone to feel that way, I wish everyone the utmost success in life. I'm just afraid of feeling like I failure myself. My dream to be a successful lawyer, starting my own firm from the ground up, as well as having a loving husband and children...it feels like its within my reach. I've never wanted anything more in life but to get those things, and be in such a stature that I could get everything I wanted and not have to worry about it.

Lol, well it looks like jay was a little too intimidated by the girl, and went and got a complete make over, which is kind of funny! But I guess she did it so she could feel better about herself ;)

work hard for the money.

well, well, well.

looks like I just might have a job for the summer after-all. I have an interview at sears on friday. i'm not too enthusiastic about working there but ...hey, it means money for some of the things i want to do next semester. i need to buy new clothes because i threw out most of my winter stuff, and i also need to buy some new things for the dorm; a new comforter, a futon, some rugs and groceries of course. i put on the application that i wanted to work full-time which means i'll probably will be going into work at about 10 in the morning if i did get hired. since i don't have a car, i'd have to catch the bus there, but my mother could pick me up after she got off of work.

before i got out of school i had an interview with a company called vector marketing; the place that does the cutlery infomercials on tv. well, seems like they hire college students to do their selling for them, which i think is hilarious. i didn't go to the interview because i felt like the job wasn't for me. i couldn't imagine myself selling kitchen knives lol. 

next weekend i'm going to atlanta for a wedding [which means pictures]. that's a 6-hour drive. sigh. we are renting an expedition so we can be comfortable and so me and trey can have room to take naps if we get tired. i'm excited in a sense but not so much because ... well me and my mom both get irritated by people easily. but let's hope all goes well.

let's hope..

2 months down, what now?

yesterday was....i guess my "2 month anniversary". -CHEER- haha. i mean it doesn't really even feel like it's been that long. a friend of mine warned me that it would soon get to the point in which the relationship got "boring" and indeed i feel like it's going in that direction. but that's how it is with relationships, sooner or later you get used to each other and the puppy love goes away. then you have to find more ways to keep things spontaneous between each other. i don't know how that's going to go but hopefully fine. :) despite this, i still lub my booger, and hope we last a lifetime. hehe.

i am so freaking happy lol. one of my best friends from high school got accepted into state! yaay. it's nice to know that she will be going to college with me [like we intended on in the first place]. she's supposed to be staying off campus, so that makes two "get-aways" for me; at her place and at my boyfriends place who is also staying in an apartment by nc state.

i finally found out today that i officially have the RA job. so that means, free single room, free meal plan, phone in the room, and that i'll have to babysit 40 grown ass college students lol, not that i mind. being an RA will help me grow as a person, as a leader and definitely get me in good with a certain person in a certain ...organization. lol.

smash it, better yet...stomp all over it.

today i got onto the bus on the way to english class. it was almost full so i had to sit in between a girl and another guy who were having a conversation in order to avoid standing up for the bus ride. the girl was telling the guy about how people that minor in spanish in college do not really accomplish anything. people can typically get through with a spanish minor without even knowing how to speak the language fluently. she said if she were an employer, having a spanish minor would not matter. i thought about this for quite sometime and honestly, she's right. i have had about 5 years of spanish classes and am going to have 3 more, but i can not understand someone who speaks fluently in spanish worth a lick. this might change around some things later on down the line. i'm looking at business minors now, not saying that i have fully decided to change my minor. i might have to talk about it to my law advisor to decide which minor would be a better choice for impressing a law school.

sometimes i hate when people take away your dreams, by pursuing something that you really wanted to do in the first place. but then, after they take them, they throw them away like it means nothing to them, especially when it meant everything to you. i feel like people do this on purpose really. i have wanted to be an RA way beyond even going to college, and once i told people that it's what i wanted to do, they basically decided that they wanted to do it too. well things didn't go well first semester as far as grades go. they weren't bad, they just weren't what i wanted them to be. but it caused me to not be able to get the job immediately, which killed me inside. i knew that this was probably the only way that i will be able to pay for school next year. what hurt me even more was that i knew i actually was going to be offered the job. now someone else i knew actually got the job, and they ended up quitting it because they thought it would be a waste of time. i dont know, maybe i just feel stupid when people don't appreciate the things that i appreciate...ya know? they just smash it. better yet, they just stomp all over it. it's ridiculous really.
