another update
I guess myspace has been taking up most of my internet time. For shame. Time for an update on the ol LJ. Whats new.. hmm. Im on my last term of my first year at PSU. It has been goin good and goin by really fast. I have managed to get As and Bs and get a bad ass GPA. Winter term sucked but I made it without pulling out all my hair. Im really glad I started at PCC because it really did prepare me for the real deal. Im still sick of my job at Walgreens.. I have applied at many places but no luck yet. I got a pharmacy tech license to work in the Pharmacy but there arent any openings right now (in my district I gotta check out the others). There was one opening at the store on MLK but they hired someone else. Im pretty mad about that because it would have been a good location. But Im going to try for some other locations. Im also going to apply for a teller position at a few banks. I think that the reason things dont work out at Walgreens is because I dont belong there and dont really need to stay there.
Theres just too much bullshit there. Its time for something better. I plan to transfer to pharmacy or quit by the end of May. I dont want to be there when my cosmetics supervisor comes back from her colon surgery (yeah she got the whole thing removed and had to tell everyone about it). She is such a bitch. And her being gone is great. Although I did get a new store manager who thinks its her job to boss me around ALL damn day now. She isnt even the store manager and she is having the district manager over cosmetics come in to train me and a new girl. Cant wait for that! Ive been in cosmetics for 3 years. I think its kinda too little too late ya know. Its good for the new girl but I plan to be out of there soon so its kind of like..where was this helpful training when I first started. I would have preferred this person over my supervisor who mainly just bitches about everything and never explains or demonstrates worth shit. but yeah. I just need a new job. Ive been there 4 years and I just dont want to hit the five year mark and still be at the same level. I did get a raise recently for reaching my three year mark. I guess they skipped the first year before I was promoted to the cos department. So at least now Im making a bit more than min wage and could actually live off of it if I needed to. but yeah. My manager hardly ever talks to me about management. Not that I want to work there..but you would think they would be trying to get someone who has worked for and knows the company AND will have a degree in business. but they must just see the lack of interest in my eyes.
I plan on moving out of the house at the beginning of June. Hopefully, Im going to move out with Patrick. We just need to agree on a location. I cant be living too far away from work and school because I rely on public trans. I plan on getting a vehicle but I just dont think its gonna happen this year.. I just dont have the money for a car. And it doesnt make sense to me for both of us to have one. I am going to get my license soon so at least we could share the car and expenses if we need to. But Patrick wants to move out to Barber blvd close to his job and Im not down for that. I found a place in NW that I could afford a studio at. That is my backup plan if Patrick doesn't wanna compromise with me on the area. I like NE Portland.. I would like to live someplace between where I am right now and downtown.. like the Irvington area. We need to go look around at places sometime. But for the next three months Im going to concentrate mostly on school and saving money and hopefully be lookin to move out around June. I am not going to take any classes this summer so Im just going to be working and saving money and getting my new job and place set up. Im very excited and anxious about moving out. I have wanted to for a really long time. Me and my mom just dont see eye to eye.. she keeps pushing the religion thing on me and isnt being supportive enough. I love her but its time to get on my own. So yeah..exciting times.
