Still no luck

The title really says it all. I've been out hunting for work for months now, and still absolutely no luck in getting one. When I tried with Hollywood Video, they even told me that they're fully staffed and not actually hiring; they just always have the "now hiring" sign up because of high turnover. Why do I get the feeling I'm running into the same problem in all the other places I've been applying? This is extremely frustrating without having to add the fact that my parents are constantly getting on my case about it. I seriously can't wait to get the hell out of this house. If I could get them to agree to it, I'll take the truck off their hands until I can afford my own car as well as an apartment.
I have been going around to the other Hollywood Video branches besides the one over on Tezel, but I'll have to call at the right time to try and get their manager and see if I have any luck. Going to try for the Culebra+1604 branch. I guess working at Hollywood Video is about as good as working at, say, Barnes & Noble.

I recently decided to check out a 2-week trial for EVE Online. Looking at the screenshots, I thought it was just artwork, but the game is seriously that beautiful. The game is also amazingly complex, so I'm really enjoying it so far. If I could afford a subscription, I could really get into this game. I've always loved the whole "fly a spaceship around the cosmos" sort of game, and EVE Online does it extremely well. It's just plain awesome.

Anyways, I seriously hope I land a job soon. This lack of money is getting unbearable, and I'm not talking about being unable to afford MMO subscriptions. I miss having a car and paying for my own gas.

Oh, and here's my dragon page. My eggs and hatchlings change rather constantly, so it seems kinda pointless to post specific eggs:

Shameless Plug

Click them! D:




....please? *puppy dog eyes*

A Birthday & Zodiac Signs

I'm actually going to post about two things. The first, and I think more important, is that today, Friday the 13th, is La Jeanna's 19th birthday. This is a very important day on my calendar, because this person is very important to me.
So although I suppose you few people who read my blog don't know how to reach or contact her, and don't really know her very well yourself, you could at least comment here with a polite happy birthday. Everybody deserves a happy birthday, even on Friday the 13th!
And she deserves it most of all. Life hasn't been all that wonderful for her, and I think anything that could possibly cheer her up is worth a shot.
So a happy birthday to La Jeanna! May you have many dozens more. :3



So I found something interesting while randomly browsing the internet. Consider your zodiac sign. You are your sign because the sun was "in" that sign the day you were born.

Think about this though...the signs were decided 2200 years ago. And the Earth "wobbles" on it's tilt! This is a phenomenon called precession, caused by the gravitational pull on the Earth by the Moon.
So it may be that your sign is incorrect!

Using where the sun is *actually* at on your birthday, the signs would be as
Capricorn - Jan 20 to Feb 16
Aquarius - Feb 16 to Mar 11
Pisces - Mar 11 to Apr 18
Aries - Apr 18 to May 13
Taurus - May 13 to Jun 21
Gemini - Jun 21 to Jul 20
Cancer - Jul 20 to Aug 10
Leo - Aug 10 to Sep 16
Virgo - Sep 16 to Oct 30
Libra - Oct 30 to Nov 23
Scorpius - Nov 23 to Nov 29
Ophiuchus - Nov 29 to Dec 17
Sagittarius - Dec 17 to Jan 20

So supposedly, I am actually a Libra.

Unrelated news: one of my hatchlings matured, and a second is almost there. As such, I have adopted three new eggs! Please click on them so that they can grow up, too. D:

Hatchlings!

This is such a totally random and pointless post, but I'm happy for all my dragon eggs successfully hatching. I think I'll hold off naming them for now, until they mature into adulthood.


My User Page

And let's not forget LJ!
Imani's User Page

Almost forgot!

I can't believe this slipped my mind. Click on LJ's eggs too! We can't let her little babies die, now, can we?

Read LJ's Scroll!

Don't think about it. Don't ask questions. Just click on the eggs already!

I've noticed *one* of my eggs got a slight crack, so at least some people out there are helping out...
But there's still 7 other eggs to hatch, with 7 baby dragons inside waiting to grow.

I know. I know. This is ridiculous, because they're just images and aren't real.
My response: so what?


On a somewhat related note, I have found yet another dragon adoptables site, so here is another dragon egg under my care. O.o

Meh...

I suppose I should post something. Nothing's really changed much, though, so that's why I haven't bothered to post anything.

Well, okay. I lost my job about a week before Christmas, and so far have had no luck in getting a new job. I couldn't even go back to my old spot at McDonald's because they have a new manager. Hopefully something will pop up soon. Not only do I need a paycheck, but I'm sick and tired of being pressured by my family, when I'm already doing everything I can. It's not like I *want* to be a jobless bum.
I also wish they'd get off my case about the way I dress and the way I have my hair. Firstly, I don't go to job interviews in clothes like this. Secondly, if potential employers are choosing not to hire me because of the way I dress, then they must be psychic, seeing as the majority of places I apply require an online application. This includes McDonald's, Hollywood Video, Marshall's, Sears, Best Buy, Books A Million...and I can't even remember most of them. Not to mention the fact that when I had in my job applications, it's always to a random cashier grunt who isn't manager. The manager never gets to see what I'm wearing when I apply!
I'm not saying these are the best clothes for a job, or the best look for a job. I'm not that stupid, and I'm tired of everybody treating me like I am. The whole POINT I am trying to make is that employers should still be hiring me even with these clothes.
It's my shitty job history that's causing me to have such a hard time with job hunting, and for no other reason. The fact that the longest time I ever spent at a job is 6 months scares off employers, though it would be nice to get the chance to CHANGE that. Short of lying on my job application, there's nothing I can do. Hell, some job applications force me to sign a document saying I give permission for former employers to talk about me in order to apply at all, though I'm not sure if such a document is even legal.


Anyways. In a fit of late-night boredom before going to bed, I have given in to a strange internet phenomenon. I've adopted dragon eggs:


Basically, people click on the egg images, and they eventually "hatch" into little baby dragons. As more people click on the hatchlings, they will eventually mature into adult dragons.
But, if the eggs don't hatch within a week of being adopted...they die. Don't let the dragons die!
