I fuck my American Cunt/I love my English Romance
So, that big job for September fell through at no fault of my own - the company I was working for ended up rejecting the offer etc etc = me -$9000. A serious bummer. Out of sympathy the company did hire me on for a 3-day job making $100/day. Shouldn't be too much work but one day I have to be "on location" at 6:30am v___v ah well. Money doesn't really mean anything... right?...
I am working one day a week at Cora's. I e-mailed my boss and was kind of like "um what the fuck" but in a really well-worded kind of way.
I really want a new job and to get my G1 (or at least take the test) before my birthday. I think it's a fair goal, especially considering all of my friends and boyfriend are too busy with school work to hang out with me all day every day.
I've been very busy with the internship - going to be going to 2-3 days of Fashion Week which should be fun and exhilarating. I wish I was going for the entire week though. I keep a blog for them and two twitter pages and designed two websites for them as well.

if you want to give me some hits it'd be appreciated.
Alex's brother Jim gave me $100 to make him a website, and it's taken me ALL SUMMER to get around to making the entire thing - I don't know why I'm such an asshole. His other brother is going to get me to do some art for him for a web comic he wants to start, so that could be interesting. I am thinking he's going to pay me per drawing but I'm not sure. It doesn't really matter.
My friend Bobby who has his own business is willing to pay me for a website for his company as well, so what the hell why not.
As for the "right now" aspect of my life, today was actually totally awesome.
I bought a leather jacket a few days ago and I finally was able to wear it out for the first time. I went for a bike ride to a library and it took 20-30 minutes to get there. It's a pretty great library, small but carries a lot of contemporary stuff and "graphic novels" I grabbed a bunch and ended up reading "Lost At Sea" by Bryan Lee O'Malley, (the guy who made Scott Pilgrim), "Ice Haven" by Daniel Clowes, and "Parker" I don't know why by.... I'd heard it was "great" but I felt like I was reading a Sin City that was uninteresting. He is angry, he goes and kills his ex-wife and tries to track down the guy who stole her and his money, he kills him, goes after the "big boss" who has his money and I just stopped reading there because who fucking cares, really.
I went into the fiction section and tried to find some books Lindsay had suggested, but instead found a book called Selfish and Perverse by Bob Smith. So far it's a fun read, a story about a gay author who is trying to find his motivation to finish his novel while working as a script assistant for a late-night talk show, when he finds himself falling in love with a fisherman from Alaska and a guest star of the show.
From the library, I went to Value Village because I was basically a block away from it and how could I resist... I ended up finding a pair of chocolate-brown leather L.L. Bean loafers for $10. I realized then and there I was taking my hipsterdom in a dangerous direction by fuck it I got them anyway.
I have spent way too much money on way too many things in the past few weeks - I went kind of crazy because I couldn't get this one bag.. but really, I just found a lot of stuff I'd been wanting for a long time and I found it all for affordable... actually upon reflection that's exactly what happened.
-light lace top
-dinosaur bone necklace
-black lace-up boots
-leather biker jacket
-loafers
-sunglasses
-knee-high socks
yeah - a lot of those things have been on my mental list for a while... WOAH I AM SO TOTALLY INTERESTING
Anyway, I got home and started reading but it was freezing so I ended up curling up in my bed and falling asleep for a half hour then had dinner and came on the internet and worked on a bunch of fucking shit and was really just bored of the whole thing... (ironically I am back)
Well I guess I'll go take another G1 practice test.
