Xmas News

Mon, 28 Dec 2009 16:55:19 GMT

Soo Christmas was okay wasn't the best or the worst but hey at least I got to celebrate it with family. Only thing I don't care all that much about my birthday though is that it is in December and is 4 days after Xmas.

*Shrugs shoulders* Oh well can't be helped I guess. Hope everyone else is having a good Holidays!! I'll probably post a much longer post tomorrow or something and drabble on random stuff.

Have you ever walked off a job on the spot? What drove you to it? Did you regret it afterwards?

In a sense yes I have walked off of a job. It was a nutrition company that sold products to help ones health. Though the products did work I wasn't all that happy about spending an arm and a legs worth of money just to be in it.

I liked the whole work as a team attitude but it just wans't for me. Though maybe the only people I miss from Yor the name of the company is the few people that helped me out but that's about it. I don't regret it in anyway since I lost more money then I made.

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 21:08:36 GMT

Well Finals are the next upcoming two weeks. I'll have to remind myself not to nab any eggs for fear of them passing away while I'ms tudying and trying to pass my exams.

Been doing better since my sister is here to help me though she's younger. I haven't been skipping or getting bad scores on assignments and what not. However she can tend to be a thorn in my side when I can't seemt o win an argument and I know she's right but I don't want to admit that.

Anyways I taking a full load of classes next semester. I have 17 units worth of classes with a total of 6 classes I believe. . .Anyways I still have my Fridays off so I'm glad for that.

Writer's Block: Sick day

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 16:34:29 GMT

When you get sick, do you prefer to go it alone or be doted upon by a friend, partner, or parent? Do you usually go to work or school or stay home?

View 1262 Answers

Hmm you know I'd have to say it would depend on how sick or serious my condition is. If it's something serious then of course I'd try to take care of myself if I can and if I can't I'd try to limit the amount of ppl that would visit me in a given amount of time and or days.

But unless it say just a cold and a friend happened to give it to me or sumtin I'd blame them but then probably laugh later and pay them back somehow, but other then that if a friend wanted to come see me even though I'm sick I'd say its their fault if they catch it and not mine for warning them ahead of time.

Responsibilities

Sat, 05 Sep 2009 17:06:46 GMT

Ugh I hate the fact that at times I have a job that tends to provide for my family. Sure I don't mind helping out those in need like the elderly couple I take care of, but the money I earn only seems to go to bills and school supplies.

I barely have any for myself let alone for birthday presents for say my sisters that is coming up in what 5 days and then two months from that my middle sisters birthday.*sigh* So I have been trying to go in a little earlier in hopes to get about $5-$20 more on my paycheck that I can put in my savings account for a rainy day.

I have gone to school and starting Monday will be my 3rd week. The first week was hectic and then the 2nd was more laid back. I have been trying to find a 2nd job in hopes of having more money in my savings besides $122.64 that has been like that for what the last 5 months I noticed.

At first I was only paying off my credit card bill, cellphone bill, and any school fees. Well I take off my credit card bill but that gets replaced with the DISH Network bill and gas money it seems. So what considering that gas it nearly $3 lately it costs almost $35 to fill up our 33 gallon tank.

Will I ever have enough money to get my car and laptop for school? Who knows, we will just have to wait around Halloween/Thanksgiving/Christmas in hopes that I get some kind of seasonal job that could help even if its work only for a few days or weeks.

Current Life

Thu, 30 Jul 2009 18:29:41 GMT

Did it every occur to someone that they wished there life was harder and then at turning points in your life easier?

Well I've been through a lot of those ups and downs. Life lately hasn't been as easy as I thought it would be. I mean for my sisters have to worry about going to her 2nd year in High School and for my other her first year following me into College.

Then there's me trying to find a 2nd job to support the family with my parents now getting about $1,000 for child support now that me and my middle sister are over 18years of age. Sooo he only gets below $500 or so. Which as soon as he gets is gone with paying the electric, smud, and telephone bills. Then all rest he has left goes to our $750 rent bill which we shouldn't be paying.

Okay if you live in a rented house you shouldn't have to pay for anything to the house unless your refurbishing it right? Well we have a small hole in a part of our house and the pipes connected to all the plumbing is cracking thus clogging up the sewer line and having it leak in our backyard. (Luckily we live in the country so its dirt but still, not the point.)

Anyways the original rent was $350-$400 or something like that. So since were not fixing the whole roof or all of the pipes but the one main one were getting charged. Ahhhhh I hate our landlord right now.

Summer Vacation

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 20:20:11 GMT

It's not as great as I thoughy my summer would be this year. The rent on our family house went up $350 so now its $700. So now I'm trying to find a second job to help pay for bills and the rent. I save very minimum toward my savings for college book fare. But since my sister is going to come with me this Fall in the August, I have been putting in more gradually to help us both.

All it takes is a blackout to realize how much we rely on electricity. What's your most memorable story from a power outage?

View 501 Answers

Hmmm that would have to be when me and my sisters were getting ready for dinner and the power went out. The accident of a car running into a telephone pole during a storm had the power out for several hours.

So my dad wrapped some potatoes in foil and steaks too and let our fireplace cook our dinner. It felt more like we were camping outside then being at home without electricity. Then for dessert we also had smores. ^__^

College

Fri, 29 May 2009 04:58:36 GMT

Is it just me or has everyone heard of a speech or lecture similar where when you go to college you'll be one of those teenagers who go get the classes they need and then somewhere along the line your like. "Okay I'm not going to be a drop out like my friend so and so". And then next thing you know your not a drop out but you do drop classes?

Well in my case I said just that and then I drop some of my GE classes that I need to pass but when I think about it the classes were free since my family income is low enough I don't have to pay the $20 per unit thing. That and since I'm shooting for a 4yr college considering the Economy and the outrageous tuition to go toone, I may as well just take my sweet time in completing my 2yrs usually it would take a student to complete their requirements at a community college.

But you know what the only thing that bites to all this is that I have to have a minimun of 12 credits to get any kind of medical insurance, instead of taking maybe half that so I don't overload myself, hence why I drop some core classes near the middle where you can have a W(Withdraw) of INC(Incomplete.
