Self Observation

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , , , on January 29, 2010 by Eddie Reese

So, unfortunately, blogging cannot be a full-time job for me… I don’t even get paid to blog although there are opportunities out there. But that’s more of a freelance thing than anything else. I find myself recently looking for a job. Mostly because although student housing is great, I want my own place. My own apartment where I don’t have to worry about the R.A. knocking on my door to tell me to stop smoking in my room, or having some yuppy frat guy or sorority gal shoving something under my door about the next big event that only 50 people will attend. The bottom line here is that I need a job.

So, I’ve been looking on Craig’s List the last couple of days and I’ve been greatly disappointed. Basically, unless I want to go back into food service, WHICH I MOST DEFINITELY DO NOT! I need to have at least 5 years experience to apply for just about anything else. How the fuck am I supposed to get experience if I need experience to get the job in the first place?! Whoops, I don’t have any retail experience, I guess I can’t work for Abercrombe and Fitch, whoops I don’t have 5 years experience as a receptionist/front desk assistant, I only have 6 months experience. Whoops, my dick isn’t 10 inches long, I can’t be in the porn industry… Okay so that last one was kind of a big jump… but you get what I’m saying… er… yeah… anyway… So the job hunt is not very successful at the moment. Big lame!

I’ve also noticed recently that I am a total loner. I’ve figured about 70-80% of my time on just about any given day is spent by myself. Unless it’s a weekend and I’ve made plans or someone has invited me to a kickin’ party. Or it’s a poker night… I love poker night. The average weekday for me is:

07:30 wake up do my stuff

09:00-14:00 classes

14:00-18/19:00 I’m by myself usually cruising the internet or doing homework.

By 18 or 19:00 one of my friends has usually called and I’ll do dinner or something with them, but not all the time and it’s never very long. After that it’s back to solitude for the rest of the night until I wake up and do it all again. I’m kind of a lamo…
