things that annoy me: unemployment

subheading: things that annoy me: getting 0 comments on my blog entries. it makes me cry at night.
yes, i'm sensitive.

ok, so unemployment. i have been unemployed since graduation (may) which staaaaanks. no one that went through 4 years at tech should be allowed to be unemployed. it is the worst feeling in the world. you move back home, have no money, have 0 friends, and most importantly, you get fat.
but its not just that, unemployment is also horribly humbling and humiliating (thats some good alliteration right there). here are some things that i cannot stand...

1. "what do you do all day?"
this is the most annoying/insulting question you get when unemployed. seriously, what do you think i do all day?! i look for jobs, i fail at getting jobs, i go to sleep crying at said failure. in between i find time to bejewel, blog, blame. yes, i blame everything. myself, the world, myself, the economy, myself, etc. it sucks. so if your friend is unemployed, you should NOT ask them this question bc it might make them cry at night.
also another question consistently received is: "how's goes the job hunt?" the answer: the job hunt goes horribly. always horribly until you hear the words "i have a job." kthaaaanks. although this question is not as insulting bc the person is usually just wondering how you're doing and actually caring. but the "what do you do all day" question makes me want to kick you in the babymaker.

2. what i do all day.
yes, i hate the things i do everyday. bc i don't do anything fun. here i am bejeweling...
look at that beautiful smile.

here, i am unemployed in china. i have a towel on my head bc chinese pple don't have real ac. its just a machine that blows air into your face. and it is uncomfortable so i have to put something on my face to protect myself.
please shoot me in the face. kthanks.

there is nothing to do so i watch tv. all day. and i don't even like tv. the worst part is that my chinese is tres mauvais and so i cannot understand anything. so i watch something that is universally understood...
starcraft replays. fml.

3. being poor.
this is quite easily the worst thing about being unemployed. when there are so many beautiful things to buy and no money to buy them with...
<3.

on a more serious note, things are actually looking up a little. i very recently got an internship with an amazing company. one that i cannot say for fear of getting fired. bc stupid pple do things like this...
silly girl.

anyways, i've wanted this internship for awhile and even though its not a real job, i still feel really lucky and blessed to have something when so many pple have nothing.. hopefully, i don't screw it up! gotta pass on the grass if you know what i mean. bc i don't know what i mean. really, i dont even know what grass is...

BUT MY SISTER DOES. I ALMOST FORGOT THIS. IT TURNS OUT THAT SOME OF THE GIRLS AT HER ICE RINK DROPPED OUT OF SCHOOL BC OF DRUGS. WTF AT THIS?! I THOUGHT THE RINK WAS THE ONE SAFE PLACE TO LEAVE HER BUT NOOOOO. I HAVE TO BE MORE CAREFUL. I'M WATCHING YOU!
man, i always knew michelle kwan was a pothead...

ok,that's it for now. everyone have a marvelous mocha monday!
oh! so the job i'm getting is in marietta. and roughly 50 minutes away from home. does anyone know anyone looking for a roommate for the fall semester? that would be great. thaaaanks!
