I got my tax rebate for the year a couple of weeks ago and last night I went a little nuts and bought doujins with it. I spent way too much money (like over a hundred bucks ( Read more... )

I'm so tired. This week has been kind of okay but the tiredness is within and not without. ...Actually, it is kind of without because I feel like I want to sleep, but whatever.

I get my fortnightly allowance tomorrow and I'm so torn between doubling it or not. I know I shouldn't but the allowance is stretched to the breaking point this week, what ( Read more... )

It's the weekend! Theweekendtheweekendtheweeeekend! :D ( Read more... )

Thursday is my favorite day of the working week. I'd trade baby Amy for elderly Amy any day. She's far less fussy. Today all the carpets got a good cleaning and it took all day for them to dry. I was afraid I'd spill something on them accidentally and ruin hours worth of hard work. Aside from that it was a pretty straightforward day.

Soon enough it ( Read more... )

I switched rooms with Valerie today. It took three hours of physical labor and many arguments. The largest problem was trying to get my bedframe out of my room and into my sister's room next door, but the frame was too large to bend properly in the small corridor. I could have dismantled the frame easily with the right tools, but I didn't have any ( Read more... )

I didn't get that job.

...

Anyway, I guess it doesn't bother me anymore. I wasn't good enough for the position. There's plenty more jobs for me to try out for. Like this one job I went after the other day required me to take an aptitude test for it. It was mostly math, and I'm horrible at math. But you need it and other skills to be a store manager I ( Read more... )

This evening I did a financial forecast of my earnings for the next six months, on the assumption that I don't get a job in the meantime. Sometimes I just think so pessimistically, especially when the future is involved. The results looked kind of grim. :x I just can't believe how much money is going into the rent each week. It's not much in ( Read more... )

Yes, I've been bitching about this for awhile, but I believe I have full reason too. You see, the government conscripted me to be an office intern and data entry operator for a local church. Whatever happened to church and state being separate? I wouldn't mind a job like this, some of the stuff I put down on paper is actually quite interesting, but ( Read more... )

My parents gave me a thousand dollars for my trip ( Read more... )

Today my grandmother gave me five hundred dollars for my trip to the states. This was a huge gesture of kindness from her, because I know quite well of her financial condition. She's not exactly the richest old lady in the world. It must have taken her weeks and weeks to save up so much. Well, all I can do is use it to the best of my ability and ( Read more... )
