CRASHING WORLD ALTERING REALIZATIONS:
1. omgwtfbbq: oh my god what the fuck barbeque?
as Kevin Spacey would say...WRONG! or..he would say....
oh my god what the fuck BITCH BE QUIET!
totally makes sense now.
2. bulimia - why do it?
ate a mcd's cheeseburger yesterday, and it seriously felt like lead in my stomach. if bulimics feel like that when they eat..i totally understand why they just throw up afterwards.

still being optimistic
my friend from UCLA came up this weekend! so we've been hanging out since yesterday.
but god, everything before that just wasn't so good.
well, good things first!
1. carmen's here! and she'll brighten anyone's day!
she got here yesterday, and wow, it was guitar hero heaven. + food. which just makes life worth living. we went to McCarthy Ranch with her friends, and i found... STINKY TOFU. you could smell it from a block away. pretty freaking amazing. she tried a piece and i think she kinda threw up in her mouth. i also tried an avocado smoothie for the first time, and it was extremely grassy and refreshing. not the type of grassy that get you high...but the end result was good enough. made you feel all fluffy inside.
the festivities continue today!
is that the end of the good things? i think it might be.
well then...not so good things.
1. me and carmen got haircuts..and i know i've been wanting to grow it out, but i couldnt resist and chopped it all off. for 15 bucks. i think you can imagine how horrible a 15 dollar supposedly precision haircut influenced by poorly trained asian hairdressers turns out.
you guessed it. absolutely horrid.
oh well, it'll grow out, and i think i'll spike it and look like a lesbian. just for kicks.
2. i had an interview at a marketing firm. the prelim interview took place on tuesday. when i walked in they were playing lady gaga and ne yo and all those good artists in the reception area. odd, i thought, but okay. i like the music. i can get down.
the interviewer walked by and kinda did a double take when he saw me. is it cuz i'm really tall? is it cuz i'm extremely weird looking? is it yellow fever? whatever.
then i walked in for the interview. white guy, kinda short, stocky build. definitely one of those cool bosses. he introduced himself as michael. he was wearing a dark grey suit with a blue dress shirt and some type of generic dark striped tie. then, he started talking about sales, leadership, and whether or not i take rejection well.
then, he mentioned paper products.
is anyone else thinking of the office now? seriously. i never realized the genius of that show until i went to that interview.
so he calls and invites me to a second interview the next day.
2. these people are basically commuting salesmen. they each have a territory in the south bay, and they drive to different shopping plazas, walk from store to store, and push owners and office managers to buy their office supplies.
during the second interview i had to shadow one of these people, and was basically walking around all day. they hadn't told me i'd be doing that, so i was in heels and a suit the whole day. needless to say, i wasn't very happy, and i was almost embarrassed to be associated with the salesguy, because he was SO FREAKIN PUSHY.
i really don't think i can ever work retail. oh well. that's the end of that.
3. i'd interviewed for an internship last week, and was supposed to hear on thursday if i'd gotten it.
i didn't.
4. interviewed for a different pt editing job on thursday in sf. i've basically been going to sf for these things, so basically a 2.5 hour commute for around 30 minutes of face time. don't know if it was worth it..i just got an email requesting writing samples..so i guess that means i still have a chance?
ok then. i guess i can look to next week with some hope...maybe i'll finally get a job.
at any rate, i had a great friend come over to remedy my less than perfect week.
and that's always a good thing.
but god, everything before that just wasn't so good.
