Holy crap

It's been over a year! Hah, and to think I was gonna try to make this a daily occurrence. Oh well.

So I'm still a store bitch, at the same store. Not a whole lot has changed at work. However I DID work for the United States Census. That was fun. Sort of, I mean in about 2 months I made almost $5k and got a LOT of stories. Oooh boy do I have STORIES from that job!

Also I don't go to college anymore, at least not for now. I decided to drop out last semester because....well after graduating in 2006 and starting college that fall, I've gone through four COMPLETELY different majors and couldn't settle in any of them.

They had all my major interests in life, first Arts Administration so I could some day run a theatre or museum. Quickly lost interest in that. Second was Marine Biology since I've had a large interest in fish since I was but a wee child. Then I realized how much math (Math is the BANE of my existance) was involved in the field, and ALL the different things you must go through just to probably end up working at an aquarium. So I opted out of that for Communications so I could go into News Casting. Thinking I would probably like to stay in the islands, it was a big shocker when a bunch of the local news stations merged, effectively killing the job market in that field. So I was like, "Hey, I can KEEP this major and do journalism! I was an editor of the high school paper!" so I stuck with it, and went in that path....then one of the two major newspapers bought the other one. Cutting those jobs in half. Oh goodie. So I thought, hey I love to cook and bake, let's go into Culinary!!!.............Yeah. I don't love it THAT much. I really found out to be a successful chef, you have to have a special kind of Arrogance. Imagine a room full of people WITH that special kind of arrogance in varying degrees. NOT. FUN.

So here I am. A lot has happened since I last posted, a few major things were dropping out, meeting Ash my buddy from Australia for the first time, losing my best girl Julia to school in the mainland but getting her car instead, starting up not one, but TWO small saltwater tanks and finally seeing why people love them, applying for the Secret Service Analyst position (and not getting called back, wasn't expecting to but it'd have been fun) and finally going back to the stage for the first time in 4 years with Zombie Prom, a musical comedy and getting great reviews from both the local critiques and from the COMPOSER himself!
Lastly, I've been neurotically entering the HGTV Dream Home contest PRAYING to God that I win! This year's house is AMAZING and I don't know how I've never heard of this contest before!! You get a house, car AND money to help you pay off the taxes!! Entries are gonna stop being taken as of Feb 18th, so I got only one more chance to enter and hopefully I'll get a surprise visit at home! PLEASE!!!


Also, POKEMON BLACK AND WHITE IS COMING OUT IN AMERICA! YAY!

Well that's about it for now I guess. Hopefully it won't take 14 months for me to decide to update this once again!
