I need a job! [Jan. 30th, 2007|03:40 pm]
[Current Mood | annoyed]

So far, in the weeks that I've been looking for a new job, I've applied to quite a few.

You know how many have called me back? 3.

One of them called to tell me that they felt that I wouldn't be happy with their company, another to ask me questions and then say that they might call me for an interview if they feel that I'm qualified, and the last from a guy who won't return my phone calls.

He'd left me a message, said that he liked my resume, he wanted to speak to me about the job, and asked me to call him back. So I called yesterday...nothing.

Called today...he's in a meeting. Probably won't return my call.

My boss is literally on the road, coming back from his business trip, and I'm sick to my stomach. I don't want to see him, let alone work for him anymore.

I need a lot of thoughts, prayers, wishes, etc. that I get an interview soon. I'm starting to get very nervous...

Poem [Jan. 18th, 2007|03:47 pm]
[Current Mood | stressed]
[Current Music |Warning by Incubus]

Here's a poem to describe how I feel right now...

Lie to me
Tell lies to me.
Unleash your venom
upon the pitiful victim.
Show me how small
and worthless I am.
Go on, lie to me.

Put fault upon me
for all that goes wrong.
When your Empire
crumbles to the ground,
I'm responsible, really.
Yes, place blame on me.

Be abusive, verbally.
Scream all you like.
I'm dimwitted and slow
(According to you,
that is, dear sir),
so come on, abuse me.

Embarrass me publicly.
Tell others about my
great many flaws,
and how I never
listen or learn.
Oh, humiliate me.

Make yourself feel better,
and reveal your wrath.
But here's the real story:
You're the loser, the unlikable one.
You're the small, scared fuck up.
But, be my guest, and lie to me.

Take this job amd shove it! [Jan. 18th, 2007|03:45 pm]

[Current Mood | pissed off]
[Current Music |Vitamin by Incubus]

I hate my job. No, seriously, I hate it. Here's why:

*My boss is a complete asshole.
*Apparently, I'm to blame for everything that goes wrong in this office.
*I get spoken to as if I'm a child, not an intelligent adult.
*Shre (my boss) changes his mind every 5 seconds, so I can barely keep up with the work.
*There are only 3 of us in the office (Maximum): Myself, Shre, and his Father.
*I'm basically the "errand bitch": "Suzanne, go to the post office/bank/etc...now."
*He's constantly verbally abusive.
*Shre is always yelling at me, and making me feel worthless and stupid.
*He asks me if I want to learn how to do this job correctly, because he doesn't feel that "I'm getting anything out of it" or "I'm committed to the job."
*He's threatened to "let me go" several times already because "he doesn't know what I'm doing."
*He's forgetful, so anything that I don't write down, when it hasn't been finished, will be blamed on me.
*He makes me write a daily To-Do list, because he thinks I slack off.
*He leaves me in charge of duties that I don't know how to do, and is always too busy to explain the procedure to me.
*Supposedly, I'm responsible for filing, acknowledging, keeping record of, and faxing ALL paperwork. But, if I don't have something, guess who's fault it is?
*He constantly dodges calls and makes me answer them and lie to people about his whereabouts because he is "too busy" and "can't be bothered to talk to them."
*Even our other consultants, who work out of Colorado, and have been working with him for 10+ years, can't stand him, and don't really know what it is HE does in the company.
*He spends tons of time on his cell phone, or making calls regarding personal issues, but screams at me if i get a personal call for more than 2 minutes.
*He accuses me of using instant messenger and other chat programs, which I do NOT use here.

That's the abbreviated list. Oh yes, it goes on.

You're probably wondering why, if I get yelled at, am I writing this? Well, he's out of the country, so he can't see what I'm doing, and I've already finished the majority of my work for the day.

So, to say the least, I've been actively looking for a new job. Hopefully I'll get a callback or interview soon.

Need help with resumes? [Jul. 11th, 2006|07:36 pm]
[Tags|]
[Current Mood | accomplished]
[Current Music |Jonesin' by 40 Below Summer]

Are you interested in getting a new job, but you need a new resume (or a first resume, for anyone who's never written one before)? I'm putting this out there because I know it will be useful information to someone.
I have been trained to write professional resumes. They usually bring in a good success rate of being hired. I include a cover letter to send to the potential employers.
For friends, I will not charge a dime. For anyone that's had a resume done by me, and knows someone who needs one done, please spread the word. I will write it up for a reasonable fee. I won't discuss that here. E-mail me ant let me know if you or someone you know is interested.
I'm looking to make some extra money. My financial state leaves much to be desired lately. I would greatly appreciate any help that could be provided to me. Not only will it help me make a bit of extra cash, I will be helping someone potentially make a big step into their career's future. Thanks in advance, and message or call me with any questions. You can find my contact info (if you don't already have it) on my info page.

New Poem! [Aug. 14th, 2005|05:16 pm]
[Current Mood | artistic]
[Current Music |The End of Heartache by Killswitch Engage]

You'll never know

I'm not your ray of sunshine.
Everything's not ok.
I smile to hide the sorrow.
I laugh to mask the pain.
I've had my share of hardships.
I know what it means to hurt.
I've been up to the Heavens.
I've been dragged through Hell.


But you think everything's perfect.
You believe the lies I portray.
You've never tried to see me
For who I am inside.
You'll never know the secrets
I've grown too tired to hide.
I'll never be your savior.
I can barely help myself.
But you're too blind to see this,
So I guess you'll never know.

Why do I fall in love? I know that in the end, I'm just going to get my heart broken. But I can't help it. I've fallen again, and I can't even tell him because I don't want to push him away. If only he knew. If only he could know. If only life was that simple. It's not, never is. I just want this to work out. I need to believe that it will. I just want him to love me too. How do I make him see it? I don't. I just pray that he does. God, please let this one be different...

Earlier [Dec. 12th, 2004|01:59 am]
[Current Mood | angry]
[Current Music |I Won't See You Tonight Part 1 by Avenged Sevenfold]

Earlier, I went with Marc and Bernadette to get our tattoos. Nick showed up for moral support. That was really sweet of him. We all came out of it fairly unscathed. My newest one is so nice. It's not exactly how I'd thought it would be, but it turned out for the better.
Today (sunday) is the 5th anniversary of my grandmother's passing. That's why this tattoo means so much to me. It's her initials with dove wings encompassing them in a heart shape. I really miss her, and this is my way of showing it. I hope she understands that.
After that, I came home and took a nap for a while, and then worked on my finals. I have a take home test for one class, and a portfolio due for another. I'm going to be working on it alot tomorrow, too. I might have to put in some time on monday before I have to leave, as well. I have so much work to do and it seems like there's not enough time for me to do it all. I'm going out of my mind.
Part of me is really happy with everything that's been going on, but another part of me isn't. I've been feeling really sick lately. Almost every morning for the past couple of weeks I've been feeling nervous and nauseous. I know it's because finals are approaching, but I wish the feeling would go away. I've also been getting headaches a lot lately. That worries me a lot. I never used to get them this often. It's been almost every night now. No, for all of you who might be reading this and thinking the worse, I'm not fucking pregnant. Trust me. I'm just...stressed out. Work's been doing that to me, and school, and friends, and...everything.
I sometimes wish that my friends could take a look into my mind and understand what I'm thinking and how I'm feeling and they'd stop saying some of the shit they say. I get so tired of having to defend myself for my religious, political, and general beliefs.
Yes, I'm a Republican, and a Christian, and a Feminist. Leave me the fuck alone about it. I don't bash your religions (or lack of them in some cases) or your fucking political beliefs. Why do you have to bash mine in front of me all the time? And, if I try to defend them, I get laughed at or scorned or told I'm wrong. God, I have so much anger inside of me and no way to show it other than here, and there's only so much I can put down.
I just want to curl up into a ball and die. I just want to disappear for a while. I just want to be left alone sometimes. I want to be missed, and loved, and cared about. When my friends tell me they only keep me around cuz I'm hot, I don't feel like I'm any of those things. I feel hurt and betrayed and like a piece of meat, like I've always felt. I'm nothing more than a face and a body. I know that's all I am. That's all I'll ever be.
Typical, I'm being my whiny depressed self again. Too fucking bad. This is who I am, and how I feel, and anyone who doesn't like it can kiss my ass. I'm so done with this shit. I think I just need to distance myself for a while. Not like anyone will really care anyway. When they say they do, it all feels like a lie. I'm sick of trying to pussyfoot around everybody and walk on eggshells about what I say around certain people when they don't give me the same respect. Sure, they treat me like gold for one second, and then like shit another. This isn't the way it's supposed to be...And I know that writing this down here won't change a damn thing, but I keep hoping that the right person will read it and try to help me. Good luck, Sue. Keep dreaming. I need to go to bed. I can't think anymore.

Tired. Lost one of my contact lenses today. Forced to wear my horrible glasses. Hate them.
Day got progressively worse from there. Just been in a funk all day. A certain friend of mine seems to be getting more and more distant. She says she's afraid of pushing me away, and knows that subconsciously she's doing it, but refuses to fix it. What the hell do I say to that?
Tired of fighting about the same stupid shit. Tired of telling people I'm not going to abandon them and have them not believe me. Tired of saying the wrong things all the time. Tired of being made to feel like I'm not important, or I don't exist, or I'm just a stupid woman. Tired of not being a stronger person. Tired of being yelled at for standing up for myself. Just fucking tired.
Should probably go back to work. Think I'm done bitching for at least a couple of hours. Just want this to all end.

[Current Music |Monday Song by 40 Below Summer]

First entry in a while. Readers digest update of my life. Mark broke up with me on July 4th. Fun. I'd quit Fridays, so I was unemployed and single. Yay. I was massively depressed. Got a job at Filene's. That blew ass, but it was money for the time being.
Tried to be friends with Mark. Didn't work. Got a job at Porter and Chester Institute, which is a tech college in Watertown. Worked there during the week, went to school mon-thurs, and worked Filene's on Sundays.
Met a guy at P & C. His name's Nick. Gorgeous guy. Funny. Smart. Leo, like me. 25. Was in the Navy. A bit shorter than me, but I can deal. The 2 jobs were too much, so quit Filene's. Have been sorta dating Nick for a couple of months now. Best thing that's happened to me in quite some time.
Still have very little free time. Go to school all day and then straight to work until 9 p.m. Social life? What's that?
Going to get my third tattoo, with B-dette and Marc. Marc's getting his 1st, B-dette her 2nd. Dad still clueless about inkage, and will remain so. Mom knows nothing of 3rd tattoo, and will continue as such. School's almost done for the semester. Thank God. Little brother has a girlfriend. Very sweet. He loves her. I envy him.
Tiffy came to CT for a bit. That was wonderful. I need to get in touch with Sam, and Jere-bear. I've been completely neglectful to most of my friends, and feel terrible. I just feel so drained and empty at the end of the week. I become a hermit and don't talk to anyone pretty much.
Had a fight with a friend of mine. Interesting. I don't like to get that upset. It's rare and rather scary.
Made a new friend, B-dette's ex-bf Jim, who's one of her best friends, still. Wonderful person. We talked for a while tonight. He makes me laugh.
Bernadette and I have a weird relationship. To the untrained eye, we would appear to be adversaries, or mere acquaintances, at best. We're good friends, but it's almost as if we're more, as well. I don't know. I try not to analyze it too much, or else my brain will explode.
Quick sidenote: must apologize to Holly (you know who you are). I miss hanging out with you. You are a wonderful and beautiful person, and if any of us have made you feel otherwise, I apologize on our behalf from the bottom of my heart.
Yes, this entry is strange, and not at all in my normal format. I am just tired and am typing exactly what I'm thinking. I'm attempting to write more poems. Should have one soon.
Brian, this has been for you, seeing as I don't update as much as I should. Hope you read it and smile a bit.

P.S. Lyrics to the song that's stuck in my head. Some of 40 Below's New stuff, not as hardcore.

Life is lost for me
And everything I dream (I dream)
Picture me above the sky on this half-day closing
Ride the wave say goodnight, drifting slowly
I see the world in your eyes; it's relentless
When I feel the burn in my life, God please end this

It's not so easy (And wipe it all away)
Can you fix me and wipe it all away?
Wipe it all away?
And wash it all away

Picture me inside the sun; I'm dried and burning
As I sink like a stone, the world keeps turning
I'll hold you close to myself; you complete me
A part of my life I can't fill, please release me now

It's not so easy (And wipe it all away)
Can you fix me? (And wipe it all away)
So sadistic (And wipe it all away)
How you'd bleed me, and wash it all away

You follow a heart in vain
You follow and start again
Life is lost for me now!

It's not so easy (And wipe it all away)
Can you fix me? (And wipe it all away)
So sadistic (And wipe it all away)
How you'd bleed me, and wash it all away
You wash it all (You wash it all away)
Wipe it all away

Creativeness [May. 14th, 2004|02:08 pm]
[Current Mood | annoyed]
[Current Music |Rollin' by Limp Bizkit]

I wrote this the night before last, and I presented it in my final poetry class. I figured it would be a nice addition to the ones I've already posted.

Eulogy for an Unknown

Attention Students and Faculty:
One among us has taken
her young life today.
Her name was - well,
you know her name,
or at least you pretend to
when she attempts to flash
a flirty smile or
give a valid opinion.
She was the quiet one,
the loner, the outcast.
Little did you know,
she was paranoid,
manic-depressive, and lonely.
To attract attention, she
wore tight clothing or
dark, gothic outfits.
She felt like an empty
shell; a body with
nothing more to offer.
She was a jill of all
trades, master of none.
She had a passion for
poetry, but fell short
of greatness.
She leaves behind two
parents, two siblings,
but no real friends;
she never had any.
Keep her in mind today.
And maybe, just maybe
six months down the road
her name will come up.
It will spark a memory of
a girl you may have known,
might have had class with,
and possibly passed, somewhere,
but you can never truly be sure.

Ok, so it follows my usual theme of depressiveness, but I think it's a much stronger and more evolved poem than those that I usually write. I could be completely wrong, however. I don't know. Maybe someone will comment on it and actually like it. Whatever. That's all for now...must get back to my take-home philosophy final *cries* Until later...

Go to http://www.happytreefriends.com You'll understand when you get there. Oh My God! I can not explain how hilarious these things are! Then, the 4 of us and this girl Shannon and Carolyn's friend Danny all took a field trip...to Erotic Empire! Even porn shopping with gay friends is fun! I gots me a new toy *tehe* I know, I'm bad.

[Current Music |Broken by Seether and Amy Lee]

Today was all sorts of crazy. I had to rush to finish a project, and I thought I was going to be late to my first class. Turns out it ended up being cancelled. That was kool. I got to chill and work on my project and just relax. I also got to eat. Then I went to the rest of my classes, and rushed home to grab something to eat before I had to go to work.
I get to work, and for some reason I had a feeling Drew (hmm, don't remember if I ever introduced him...he's the Army prick that led me on, thinking he liked me, and then turned out to be engaged and then called me up and bitched me out) would be there, even though he's supposed to be living in Colorado now. Sure enough, I turn the corner into the bar, and I see him sitting there, wearing his army clothes. I gasped, turned around and hauled ass back to my section.
I avoided him like the plague tonight! He's damn lucky I did. If I hadn't, I probably would have spilt his drink all over him or slapped him or something. Good thing for me, too, cuz then I would have gotten fired, and that would be no fun at all. I may hate my job, but at least I have one right now. A crappy job is better than no job. I have been putting applications in at other places though, so hopefully something will pan out and I can get the fuck out of Friday's.
I got a call from Sam today. We're going to hang out on Thursday. I get to see his new place, and he's gonna cook dinner. Wee! I miss him. I miss a lot of my friends that I don't get to see because of my shitty school and work schedule. I really can't wait until summer. 2 more weeks...it won't come fast enough! Ok, ok, enough bitching. I'm wicked tired, and I think I'm getting sick, so I'm going to make myself some tea and read and get some fucking sleep. I haven't been sleeping well at all lately. I think it's just because it's so close to the end of school that I'm all nervous and stressed. I really hope that's all it is. Well, until next time...

[Current Music |Reason by Hoobastank]

Ok, quick update as to some of the things I'm going to be talking about here: Heathyr and I split, unfortunately, but now I'm dating a boy named Mark. He's 23, tall, dirty-blonde, blue eyed, lean, is a volunteer firefighter for Prospect, goes to UConn Storrs, is an econ major, will probably graduate this year, and we got together officially on New Year's Day. Jacqueline and Sam broke up also. I think that's about all I need to clarify. Ok...


So, tons of good stuff has been going on for me lately. Mark and I are doing so much better, which is always great, and I think this one might actually last a while. I am so in love with him, it's ridiculous. We went on a date this weekend and last weekend. It's so cute! I love being able to go out and see a movie or have dinner. It's just a nice change of pace. We also went hiking with Jess, Travis, and Aimee to Mount Tom. It was so beautiful. The weather wasn't fabulous, but it was so nice being outside, in the fresh air, doing something healthy. I had a great time. Yay!
Ok, so enough about that, cuz I hate to get all mushy. We just recently had National Day of Silence. If anyone's interested in what Day of Silence is, you can visit the site at http://www.dayofsilence.org We were in 5 different newspapers, and we were even on the news! And, today, we got recognition at a dinner and got an award for National Day of Silence for Outstanding Cultural Program of the Year. Of the YEAR!!! Who rocks? Oh yeah, that'd be PRIDE.
And now, for the bad news. A friend of mine is going through a really rough time right now. Her father went to jail (for unknown reasons) and he then tried to commit suicide. She's not handling it very well. And her sister might have cancer, so she's got a whole lot of shit on her plate right now. I wish I could say or do the right thing for her, but there's not much comfort that I could offer.
Also, one of our Faculty members is being harassed by other staff of CCSU for being an out lesbian. She's gotten several threatening e-mails, and one of the staff even came to her office today to harass her! This is getting out of control. This woman is one of the most caring people I've ever met. She does not deserve this kind of treatment. The staff member tried to use God against her, and said that she's going to hell and all of these things. If this woman is a Christian, she's sure as hell not showing it. This is not a very Christian attitude.
On another bright note, Jacqueline is taking driving lessons! She's doing really well. Mark let her drive his truck, and Sarah let her drive her car! I am so proud of her. She's on her way to getting a license, she's going to Southern in the fall, and she'll be living on campus. I'm so glad for her. Lots of great things are happening, and it's about time.
Oh, so I got a call from Sam yesterday! I was so thrilled. We haven't talked in quite some time, so it was awesome to hear from him again. We're going to try and get together some time next week. He's got 2 jobs now, and he's got a new girlfriend. That's such great news. I really can't wait to see him again. I'm glad he's doing well.
On a similar note, Tiffany got engaged! She moved to Tennessee with her fiance, and they're going to be getting married in about 2 years. It's times like these that make me realize how old we're all getting. We're growing up, and sooner than we know it we'll be out in the "real world."
Speaking of the real world, I saw Webster a few days ago! See? Lots of good things have been happening lately. He came in right when I was about to take my break, so I sat and had lunch with him and did some catching up. I miss hanging out with everyone. I hate the fact that we've all been so busy. But at least summer isn't too far away. 3 more weeks, and I'm done with school. I can't tell you how great that is. I'm so burnt out from PRIDE, school, and work. I have a lot of work to do before it's all over, though. I have a 10 page paper due in 2 weeks. Eep!
Well, I'm not sure what else I have to add. I think that's about all the excitement I have for right now. Oh, no, one more side note...Jess and Tim are kind of on the rocks right now. I don't know how much longer the relationship is going to last, to be quite honest. It sucks so bad because I can do nothing about it. All I can do is offer advice and get updates every once in a while. I hope it all resolves itself, one way or another. That's all I can say. Well, that's about it for now. I guess I'll add more tomorrow...

[Current Music |Karma Police by Radiohead]

Yesterday started off kind of shitty. I was late to my class, and nervous about my presentation. It worked out ok in the end, and then I booked it out of class. Sold back my books. Got some money, but not too much. Didn't expect more than 30 bucks, so I was happy with the 78 I got.
Then, went over Jess' house. Chilled with her for a bit. Had girl alone time. Was good. Went to see Timmy, and headed over to Barnes and Nobles. Started talking, and then decided to go shopping. So, we went to the mall. Met Travis there. Walked around a bit. I got a straightening iron for my hair. Good stuff. Went back to Barnes and Nobles, and Jess' friend Tom was there. God, he's hot. Anyway, a bunch of our other friends came there: Tiff, Adam, Sam, Jeremy, Timmy, Ian, Steven, and I think that's it. Lots of people. Good times.
Saw Jay, who used to work at Hot Topic. He did some really awesome card and sleight of hand tricks. Then, everyone except for Travis, Timmy and Jess and Tom went to Jacqueline's house.
While parking, got a call from Andel. Jim's been hit by a car. I freeze. He was walking, a car didn't see him, and hit him. It was a slow moving car, but even a fairly slow moving car can do some damage. He broke his left arm and leg, cracked his sternum, and fucked up a rib and something else. He's in stable condition, but I'm worried as shit. I'm going to go see him with Jacqueline today.
Because we were so upset, it was good to have everyone over the apartment. We talked, laughed, and played strip poker. It was anything we could do not to think about this shit. It really puts life into perspective. It makes me feel selfish to even complain about my life when people have it much worse off than I do. Who am I to complain? I should be shiny and happy all the time. Well, I can't be, but I will make a conscious effort to not let certain shit bother me. I need to take a nap or a shower or something. Head's spinning. I'll update more later.

Ok, it's been quite a while since I've updated. A lot of shit has gone on in the past few weeks. Where do I begin? Ok. After my last update sounds good. Let me try and remember what's happened in those past few weeks: Went to work that night. Laura worked with me, but Harmony wasn't there. Work's been really slow lately. It bothers me a bit. I'm not pulling in the money like I was. Well, I expect it to pick up again soon.
A couple of weeks ago, Heathyr slept over my house because she was going to go to school with me and then we'd go and pick up Katie at school so she could be home for the weekend. I refuse to disclose the events that ensued that night, but what I will say is I was a very happy Suzy.
Oh! And some time ago, within the last couple of weeks (it really has been a while since I've updated), Sam and Jacquie have been...dating. I guess that's what you can call it. Well, they seem happy enough, and I'm excited for them. Of course, everyone at work was being super nosy and asking me who that guy was that Jacquie was with, how she knew him, blah blah blah. I told them not to worry, she knows what she's doing, and he's a good friend of mine and I trust him. And her. And I do.
Thanksgiving was...an experience. Got my "aunt flow" visiting. Grr. That sucked. Kept getting picked on by the fam. That's to be expected. Then, the trips down memory lane ensued. That was it. Needed to go to bed and forget that any of them were even around. Jacquie called me and asked me over. I rushed as if there were no tomorrow! We had a post Turkey Day celebration.
Jess and I have been having some issues. She feels that I'm replacing her with Jacquie. I'm not. I wish she'd realize that. I can't control our work and school scedules. I've been doing everything I can to try and include her in whatever I'm doing. I invited her on the cruise, I have her come with us to Barnes and Nobles, and I call her up as much as possible. I don't know what else to do. I feel like I'm being a bad friend, but I'm really not. If you read this, know that I'm trying. I don't know what else to do. The blame can't all be on me. If you're uncomfortable and feel left out in a conversation, jump in and give your 2 cents or start a new topic or something. Don't just sit there quietly and not let me know that there's anything wrong. Ok, I'm not yelling. I'm just telling you that we both have to do our best to patch this up. You're still my best friend/sister in my eyes. Nothing will ever change that.
Been seeing a lot of sam and Tiff lately. I'm glad they're speaking. It's really nice to know that after a tough breakup, people can still be friends. Gives me something to strive for.
Speaking of Sam, met his friend Joe recently. He seems like a trip and a half. He's been calling me, trying to get us to hang out, and even knows some people I went to middle/high school with! That's insanity! I hope that over the break we can all hang out. He seems really nice, and I think he's pretty good looking too. But you didn't hear that from me ;). Oh, but the first night we all hung out, Heathyr and I made use of Jacquie's bathroom! After other peopel made use of it, who shall remain nameless ;). Good first impression, huh? It was rather entertaining. Well, he called me afterwards, so obviously it didn't bother him too badly.
This past Wednesday, went to Gotham Citi. I was excited to go, considering I'd only been twice before. The night started out great. I went with Heathyr, and we met Barry and his friends Charlie and Doug there. Charlie was quiet, but really good looking. Doug was...not anywhere around half the time, but he seemed pretty kool. Steve, the guy that does the whippings, was there. Heathyr and I decided to go and get whipped again. It was fun at first, but then it got to be really uncomfortable. I won't go into too much detail, but I just felt really creeped out. It reminded me of another guy I knew, who's name I will always refuse to mention. I've made reference to him before, and always only as HIM. I felt slightly violated, and couldn't say anything. I froze, like a deer in headlights. I just prayed that we would leave soon. After we left, I was fine. The next day, it sort of hit me, though. But I'm over it now. I wrote a poem about it, and felt relieved. I'll have to post it later.
This weekend, I got snowed in, along with the rest of the state. Work was cancelled for me for fri. and sat., and I didn't have to go in on sun. Nice relaxing break. Of course, I got sick over the weekend, so I didn't enjoy it as much as I could/should have. I'm not going to class today because I feel rotten. I might call out of work tonight if I don't feel better. Let them write me up.
Oh, I have to mention something kind of funny. This kid Everett that I met at the Static X Concert (a friend of my friend Marc's...he goes to CCSU with me) got my screen name from Marc and has been talking to me lately. He told me that he kept bugging marc for the "really hot girl from the concert's screen name." *blushes* It was kool. He's awesome, and funny, and it's be kool to hang out with him again.
Yesterday, I was Ms. Santa. I brought in a bunch of gifts for people at school. It was so good just to see them smiling and get thanked and get hugs nad kisses and whatnot. That's what Christmas is about...bringing joy to others. I can't wait to give to my friends and family. I have the perfect gifts for most of them hehe. Oh, and my friend Adam called me and completely made my day. He said that the gift and the inspirational talk I had with him (long story) had inspired him to call up a friend of ours and patch things up with her. He said that I made his day and he'd been so happy all day long and just had to call me and tell me. That's what makes this life worth living sometimes...just hearing a kind word once in a while.
Ok, you're pretty much brought up to date now. If I think of anything else, I'll let you know. Until next time...

Ok. It's been a few days since I've written. Let's start with what happened this weekend. On Friday, I had to work. Jacqueline and I go out around the same time. After work, Jacqueline and I went to Ooh La La. It's a store that just opened up on Lakewood road. It is absolutely wonderful in there! There are lots of books, candies, movies, and clothes in there. I highly recommend this store to anyone and everyone.
After shopping for a bit, we went to Blockbuster and rented "Finding Nemo." What a great movie! I'd seen it in the theaters, with my Stephy, and I laughed the whole time. I don't care if it's a Disney movie. It's one of those movies that everyone should see. Jacquie laughed her ass off! All I have to say is, "Mine, mine, mine...Gee, I wish I could speak whale." *giggles*
I slept over Jacquie's that night. Then, I took her to work on Saturday morning. I went home, ate, and then took a nap until I had to go to work. Work was a little hectic, but not bad overall. I ran food, and I got out of work early. I wasn't feeling too well, because I hadn't eaten much for dinner, so I went home and watched the movie with my mom. She thought it was absolutely hysterical. I'm going to need to buy that movie sometime soon.
This brings us to Sunday. Worked from 12:30 until about 5. Jacquie came in early to eat and talk. We set some ground rules for living together. Yes, we might be getting a place together, she and I, in the summer. We're not sure yet. Nothing is set in stone. But I'm going to keep hoping, anyways. After that, came home, had a bit to eat, and took a nap. Woke up, talked to my mom a bit, and then went to Barleycorn. Saw a few people there that I knew. I sang 3 songs: Foolish Games by Jewel, Thank You by Dido, and Spiderwebs by No Doubt. I love karaoke. I feel so free and relaxed when I'm singing. It's such a stress reliever.
Yesterday, I went to school, had an absolutely splendid day, and then went to pick up Heathyr at UHart. Her, Katie and I rode around in my car for a while, exploring downtown Hartford. We drove through this park that had a bunch of Christmas decorations up. They weren't lit up yet, obviously, but it was beautiful nonetheless. We then went to an art store to get some illustration board for Katie, and then went to a party store not far from that. After all of that, Heathyr and I went to Ooh La La. That is our new favorite store, I swear. It's Heaven for us! I bought some perfume, and used some that night. It was effective, to say the least. Then we hung out with Sam! I miss hanging out with him on a regular basis. He's so wonderful. We talked, laughed, and just enjoyed ourselves.
I just finished class, so I'm going to go home and eat before I go to work. I'm actually looking forward to going tonight. I work with my Laura, and probably Harmony, too. We have so much fun when we work. And I get to pick up my paycheck. Woot! Things have been so wonderful lately. I don't think I could get much happier. And, I haven't had to take my pills for 4 days now! Wee! I think I'm slowly getting better, and not because of meds, because I want to get better. My friends, family, and God have all had a hand in this. I definitely couldn't do it alone. I've been so positive lately. Things are finally starting to work themselves out. Oh, and I forgot to mention: Kristina is up from South Carolina! I'm going to see her probably on Thursday, because I don't have class. If I can't, I'll see her when she gets back from Vermont. We have so much to talk about. It'll be so good to see her again. I'm going to go now, and I'm going to try and write a poem about my new outlook on life. Until later...

Something to consider [Nov. 16th, 2003|01:35 am]
[Current Mood | annoyed]
[Current Music |The Dope Show by Marilyn Manson]

If anyone, and I mean ANYONE has a problem with what I write in here or in my livejournal, DON'T READ IT. If you think that I'm mentally unstable, you're probably right. Excuse me for not being perfect and happy all the time. I think, considering the circumstances, I handle myself fairly well. I don't do drugs, I don't drink too much, and I don't go into fits of rage against people. If I wanted to, I could be mad at the whole world. I could hate everyone, become a hermit, and tell the whole world to go fuck themselves. But I don't. So, I vent here. It's MY journal. I have the right to put whatever I want in here. I think I shouldn't have to be worried about what other people think. If the people that read this start to form a different opinion about me because of something I say, they obviously weren't worth my time in the first place. Nothing I have to say should ever change someone's opinion of me that drastically. Nothing. Shit, I've even put that I'm bisexual in here. If I write that I feel like shit and want to kill myself, then you all have to understand that that's want I'm feeling. No one has any obligation to read this. Or to care. I put it out here so that people know what's going on in my life. If something needs to be said, but isn't anyone's business, I'll put it in as private and be done with it. This is my way of self-medicating. I'm not taking those fucking pills anymore. I'm sick of them. I don't think I need them anymore. I'm finally getting stronger. Things don't bother me as much as they used to. Hell, even tonight I was more patient with people than I usually am. So, in closing, I will re-iterate my point: If you don't like it, don't read it. For anyone else who doesn't understand this concept, go fuck yourselves. Thank you, and have a nice life.
