Party Balloons Galore!

This week has been crazy busy and prosperous in a way. I had two interviews this week, one on Monday and another on Tuesday. Monday was at Zurcher's, I applied there a month ago when they were hiring and they just happened to keep my application. I applied there mainly because it was closed on Sunday. I don't mind working retail because I need to be around people which my other job did not provide (and talking to myself gets boring, surprising yes, but true). I aced the interview but I was alright not getting the job, because it's the opportunities that count. Tuesday I had another interview at this new craft store called Hobby Lobby, again they are closed on Sunday.
I walked into that store and was totally amazed by all the stuff they had (i am an artsy craft girl). If I had gotten the job I think it would have been a disaster to my paycheck because I would be buying things like crazy. I went in for my interview and they gave me a math test and 20 minutes to work on it and no calculator. I about died. Math is my weakest subject. It was easy math in a way, but I have been using a calculator for so long now that my brain just died. How was I suppose to get 66% off of $27.93? Later I figured out to just take 10 percent off 6 times like tithing but then what would I do with the other 6% (yes, I am not intelligent in that area, math just freaks me out sometimes ha ha). They told me not to worry about the math part, but I knew I had butchd the interview. I kind of figure I wouldn't be hearing from either of them, so I was content with my other job that I pretty much am a pro at. Friday morning I got a call from Zurcher's and I was hired which is great. The downside is that I start at minimum wage so I drop .75 cents, but it is a sacrifice I am willing to make so that my social skills and job skills may flourish. Yes, that is my week and now I have 11 days until surgery! I am excited for it!

Another bit of Bittersweet

Image
This week has been a good meh bittersweet week. My week was rolling as I worked my butt off for my 7.25 dollars an hour job (and yes my job hunt is never ending). I also had some great time getting together and hanging out with friends and family this week. Now that was my sweet part and Tuesday was when the bitter rolled on in. I got home around 6 from work and popped on the computer to check my emails and facebook and noticed that in the left upper corner of my facebook page I had a message. I clicked on the message and wish I hadn't because it wasn't a very friendly how's it going message. It was a hurtful message and part of it confused me because I was thinking about whether maybe other people viewed me in the same way that person was viewing me. Yes, I do sometimes analyze things a little much, but sometimes it's because I haven't experienced some of what people might call norms in their lives(those of you that know me inside and out may understand where ...

Seriously?

Alright, so the last time I blogged I think I mentioned something about a couple of guys of interest. One of them is a no go and another is still in the running's. The No go. I was really trying hard to like this one. He has a great job, a fancy car, a house, even a motorcycle. He would come up and talk to me after each activity and it was all cool. I soon realized that I really didn't have feelings for the guy. I was trying so hard to like him that it wasn't coming naturally and then realized I didn't like him. There were other things that made me not like him either. Like the fact that he lived alone in his house with 2 cats and how just the other day he called me sparkles. Friends if you know me then you would know something like calling me sparkles would make me want to throw up or gag. I am also more of a dog person than a cat person, and would prefer my animals/pets to hang outdoors. I also had a nightmare the other day that I married him, and during the whole d...

To be BuOYant

Ha ha buoyant means your gay (in a happy way) and cheerful, and boy is in buoyant, so boys can make a girl buoyant and giddy (yes I said giddy). So before I start story time my dude friends may want to turn away from reading this post... I believe there are only a couple of you. You can read it if you want but if you don't like it, hey I did warn you. Ok story time. A couple weeks ago I went to my father's ward (he is the new 2 nd counselor of a BIU ward), well I was being the observant girl that I am and checking the market out. Ha ha yes yes I did it and was a little impressed, and one handsome feller caught my eye. Well a couple days after I was speaking to my Bro (who goes to that ward) and I was telling him about the handsome feller and he was wondering who it was, and also mentioned that there was someone there that he thought of setting me up with. Well with the works of facebook we found him and guess what.....he was my handsome feller ha ha. Ok so besides th...
