The World These Days

(disclaimer: I am not a mother. I don’t claim to feel how mothers feel. I’m sure that if I was a mom, I would understand this more. But, as I am childless, this is how I feel.) People nowadays overreact about everything, I think. Most political quandaries center around how offended people will get. For [...]

Income Restrictions?

The other day, the hubby and I went looking for a place to live. We went to a nearby popular apartment complex for a tour. Although it was a bit expensive for my taste, the location was perfect, and it was a nice place. We sat down with the manager—who had insisted we rush over [...]

stresssssss

Well, I’m back to where I started. Two days before school was to start this semester, I withdrew from all my classes. Why? Well, it was going to be a GIANT waste of money. I still don’t know what I want to do—besides be a flight attendant (and I still can’t figure out how to [...]

Happy Anniversary

On Tuesday, I will have been blogging for a year. In that year, I’ve had nearly 10,000 hits.  I’d like to thank my Twilight Posts for this. In the last year: Got my heart broken for the first time (and the last, I think). Dropped out of school. Got a job at a mexican restaurant. [...]

Charity

(This blog is proof I’m a terrible person.) After stopping at the vending machines on the way to the computer lab, I walked in between a few Charity Guys, shaking jars a third full of petty change, saying, “Feed the hungry!” I felt extremely guilty, opening my Gardettos (a perfect bag, I might add, full [...]

Halloween (Because I can’t think of a more original title)

Fortunately, it’s fall. Unfortunately, it’s 70 degrees outside. I mean, seriously. 70 degrees? In October? I remember several Halloweens past, when it snowed. I minded then, because I was trick-or-treating in a mermaid costume, but now that I’m too old for such fun, I demand some COLD! Fortunately, it’s Halloween on Friday. Unfortunately, I have [...]

Election?

This is the first presidential election that actually matters to me. For every other one, I was too young. Unfortunately, I don’t want to vote. I’m not particularly fond of either of the candidates. They both have some fantastic strong points, but then again, they both have some pretty terrible weak points. If we could somehow [...]

On My Own

I’ve moved out for the first time. I was terrified at first. I knew about a month in advance that I was moving, but it didn’t seem real till the last week in my parents’ place. All I could think was, “This is my last Sunday* here.” (*insert day of the week, meal, event, etc.) [...]

Valentine’s Day and My Reasons For Not Hating It.

(There will be a thousand blogs about Valentine’s day, mark my word.) Most single people hate Valentine’s Day. A lot of them celebrate S.A.D. (Single Awareness Day) to make themselves feel better. Most go out and get drunk. I, however, choose to do none of these, but treat Valentine’s day as a normal day (besides [...]

Stupid Mika.

Last night I was supposed to go to the Mika concert. I got home at 4:30, took a shower, got ready, and then waited for Mary to show up so we could drive up to the concert. We finally left around 6:30 (the concert was supposed to start at 7) and got in line around [...]
