whoa i've been gone for a while.
i had to focus on my school work last semester. and, somehow, I got through it, surprisingly, with a better gpa then i had expected.
this semester, I have to focus more on work. boo. This AA thing is taking too long. And my current job is wearing me out. I am considering taking a break from VCC (community college in orlando) and just getting a tech certificate in something so that I can have a semi-well paying job, or at least benefits. I hear massage therapy pays well, but I'm concerned because I've heard it can be shady. (But i know i'd be great everyone tells me i give great backrubs ) I know I don't like nursing bc I hate hospitals so thats out of the question...but maybe a vet tech or something. If I could learn to tattoo, that would be great. It is something I want to eventually learn before I get too old but its difficult to find an apprenticeship... I dunno.
My main job is just starting to get really spooky. I tend to work by myself sometimes at an industrial place, and in the last 4 weeks, there have been 4 break-ins and theft reports. I don't want to bust in on someone when they are stealing and im ALONE! So, finally, after something like $30k in materials lost, the company I subcontract for hired Security. Which is a slight ease of mind, but I'm still spooked.
I remember after hurricane Charlie and the power was down, the alarm system was disabled at the plant. So, the company hired some security, but they really sucked. For a while, my best friends sister, April ,would sub-in when some of my crew was not available to work. At the time, she was a dancer, and was looking to make extra money. Well, to make a long story short, one of the security guards chatted April up and was showing her his adult film portfolio trying to convince her to model, while he was supposed to be on duty. K, I like pron too, but when you are supposed to be keeping me safe...its a lil fucked. Not to mention the other security guard on the same crew, across the street who was sleeping at the gate, in her car! I rode up in my golf cart and screamed "HEY!!!!!" She nearly jumped through the roof---that was pretty damned funny actually.
The current security is a lot more reliable, thank goodness, but I think all the bs going on is a sign to move the fuck on. I've been working at that place for so long.
As far as work goes, taking up 1/3 of our lives....I temporarily quit the henna place at Universal because the season is slowing down. Yet, I was surprised to find my ID card still grants me FREE access heheheeeeee!
I took my mom on Friday, to Islands of Adventure, that is. She hadn't been to a park or on a roller coaster since we moved down from Chicago, which was eerily, more than 6 years ago.
I was nervous that she would have a heart attack or chicken out, (she's in her 50's and was in the hospital in critical conditon with pneumonia last november) but after we went on the Hulk, our first ride, I knew she would be fine. She actually enjoyed it a lot, and the lines were all relatively short, the longest wait for a coaster being only about 15 minutes.
Lets see enuff ranting....whats good....Oh yeah I'm pink again. I died my hair atomic pink a couple weeks ago. I still have to update my pics here though. Maybe its a young-adult crisis.... I used to dye my hair pink all the time in highschool...so part of me feels 16 again- weird. All i know is that is soon as my hair grows out a lil more from my last cut, it's dread time. I am almost finished making some new black dreads. I'm planning on having them in by October. I'm excited I can't wait to have long hair again.
Has anyone else seen the zeitgeist movie? (www.zeitgeistmovie.com) What do you guys think? Any truth to that? How much is actually believable? My bf showed me that and my jaw dropped, a lot. I'm sure there are conspiracies, but do they really delve that deep? (Particularly the way 911 is embellished.) I will never look at my passport the same, because according to the film it has a chip in it, which could be used as a tracking device. Not like I'm a miscreant, it just I'd rather have heard that information when I applied for it, so I was at least made aware of it's presence.
Ok well im stop having paranoid thoughs and im gonna go finish this batman beyond pic im coloring....still have to add more highlights...do touchups and add a back ground. any ideas?
ok have a cute doggie too

And we all hate our jobs....I am throwing the "I hate my fucking job" party on Sept. 15 (not to mention there is like 4 birthdays to celebrate as well), because I have to have an excuse to get stupid drunk.
What kinds of jobs are you interested in, and what kind of money are you looking to make. I've got my fingers in about every place in the damned central Florida area, and would kindly point you in the right direction.
As far as taking a break from school...if you feel you need a break, then I suggest you take one ASAP. Burning yourself out is far from the right thing to do, and you will watch your GPA go down if you continue to attend school on a short wick. Take the semester off to save up some cash, and party your arse off, then start fresh in the new year...because 2008=year of presidential change
