So had 3 job interviews yesterday. THREE. Count 'em...1, 2, 3. The one for Aritzia was very long and awkward. They asked me to sell them a keychain. Then I got to keep the keychain in the end. I hope at least one of them works out. I really need a job, but I'm really tired of all the effort. If you walking along in promenade mall the amount of now hiring signs is outrageous though. So theoretically if these 3 don't work out (I hope they do) then I could try more. All this trying is exhausiting. 

Main reason I need the job is for the money, of course. Lots of stuff I need to pay for starting next year. Also applied for OSAP yesterday. They're gonna give me more money than I thought. I guess I'm poorer than I thought. But 4800 a year! That's a lot...more than enough for me. Though it makes me worry about paying it back. Hence the job. Yay jobs. Yay money. I've got to keep hoping. I hope when they say they'll call you. Sometimes they lie. At least they said by next week, so I'll know when they lie. 

Went to the movies today. With the family. I didn't like that so much. We saw kung fu panda. It had its moments I guess, but it was pretty stupid. I would have liked it more if i was 6. Too bad I'm not 6. Most of the kids in the theater seemed to be that age. They also were very loud and obnoxious and ran around a lot. I'm really not fond of kids. Don't know how i'll ever want any. By the way...one of the places i interviewed at was a little kid's store, and that place they seemed most desperate. So if I got a job there, i'd have to get used to it. 

Been listening to a lot of Avenue Q lately. I desperately want to see them this summer, but I lack the funds. It's fifty dollars for really really bad seats. And that's bad seats. If I wanted decent seats it would definately be more. Right now listening to 'It Sucks to Be Me'

Kate Monster: "I'm kinda pretty, and pretty damn smart. I like romantic things like music and art. And as you know I have a gigantic heart. So why...don't I have a boyfriend? FUCK. It sucks to be me , It sucks to be me.........."

*sighs* Just one of the many reasons it sucks to be me. There's a lot of them.

 Yes, that's right, I quit Wal Mart. No one who really cares about school could work until midnight on a school night. My marks are slipping as it is. Today was also grand opening. I'm never going there, they are the esscence of evil. I care about school, and I want to go to university, so once again i'm unemployed. I have a job interview on Saturday, but i'm kind of scared. I can't exactly use Wal Mart as a reference, because they hate me.  I really hope i get that job. It's a promenade, it closes at 9...so it's cool. I need the money. 

I other news, life sucks. It totally and completely sucks.

So I got a second interview with Walmart. Quite an accomplishment, right? I guess so, since some people pbbly don't make it past their first interview, which i had today. I made up junk that sounded good for the many questions, and i gave them my impressive sounding references. I think it went well. I had to do a background check thing. That seems to be the type of thing they do only if they're planning on hiring you. I spent teh fifteen minutes that I was early sitting and watching a walmart movie about its history and such. It was very fascinating, and now i want to work there more. If only for a cool vest and a name tag:) Also money. 

Getting there was more stressful than the interview itself. I just just missed the bus, because of course busses don't come when they say they will. So I decided that i'd walk, instead of stand there for 25 minutes. I was afraid of being late. Did you know that it's 3.9 kilometers away? that's a lot. I was dying by the time i got to the promenade, and i still had to walk much longer than that.  My feet were killing when i got there, and i was all sweaty and gross. I had time to catch my breath when i got home. On the way home, i took the bus from Promenade. The driver didn't do the route correctly, but he went where i needed to go, so whatever. Other people were angry though. 

When I got home, my legs were very angry with me. Oh well. Sorry legs! I'm feeling like i can actually get this job. Positive me...wow. I listened to one lady being interviewed who talked about how she has a master's degree, and a really high iq, and worked for the governement for years, and owned her own business. I was happy when they nicely told her she was overqualified to be a cashier. They said they prefered mostly inexperienced people they could train the walmart way.That's me~! Hopefullly I'll know if i have a job after 10:00 a.m. on August 23rd. Hopefully there's not a 3rd, 4th or 5th interview. Ew. One was bad enough. Two will be worse. Wish me luck on the next one!

I am getting a job at the new Walmart they're building. I am! See, I'm determined. I really want to work there. It pays really well, very flexible hours, very close. Plus, it seems like it would be fun. I went to give my application Wednesday at the hiring center. Had a "pre-interview" right away. They asked me about my experience,  why i want to work there, ect. It went pretty well i think. They were happy i had no cash experience, because they want to train me the walmart way. They were already talking to me like i had the job...about salary and hours and stuffs. 

Anyways, i have a "first interview" on tuesday at 1:20. A little nervous, but still pretty confident. I'm more nervous about getting there, because the bus doesn't come very often, and i still have to walk a lil afterwards.  Also first interview sounds like there will be more. Why? Why? I'm good at making stuff up, i suppose. So I think i'll do well. Who knows...before i know it, I could be a walmart cashier!!!! I dunno why i'm so excited for that prospect. It seems like a good job. I'll make...8$/hour...which is very good i think. Better than minimum wage, i think. Definately better than camp jobs, which are much much less than minimum wage, and i would have hated anyways. 

Maybe next time I update, I'll have a job. I think it's probable, maybe highly likely. I'll probably update after the first interview, to say how it went, and see if i've gotten another.  After doing nothing all summer, this seems to be the most promising thing. Although this summer sucked, and i'm hoping for not another like it with nothing to do...I got to see more friends than I usually do. That's a plus. Also i'm now happy i didn't get a job at a camp after all. I know after the babysitting i would have been absolutely miserable and hated it. Not close to enough money for me to do something i hate. This summer has been a learning experience, and i at least made 300$

Until next time (maybe next time will be with job)

I think...i just might be ok now.

Not much has changed, but i'm okay

Had fun shopping yesterday with Siran. Bought a skirt. Saw a movie

Have a job interview tuesday, and already panicking.

Found at least two people who have nothing to do (who i also like)

A lot of things still suck, even more than they did before, but not quite so depressed.

I'm more...okay...
