  • Disappear

    Have you ever thought about what it would be like to disappear - not like a super-hero, no - just leaving your life. Just walking away from your home, with a little bit of cash in your pocket - not knowing where you'll end up?

    I don't know why, but this has been on my mind lately. I've been walking around my neighborhood area alot, and I just think about leaving. To just keep walking. Who knows when I'll stop - and if I tell anyone. Just not showing up to work one day - not answering phone calls, leaving all my "possessions." Disappearing without a trace.

    No, this is not a threat for those that know me personally. It just interests me. I won't do it (or at least I think.)

  • The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella

    I'm so excited to read the book that is named in the title of this post. I'm glad that Stephenie Meyer wrote this book - because I just love the series so much.

    SPOILER ALERT!
    Bree is a newborn vampire that eventually ends up meeting the Cullens and Bella in very bad circumstances - and the Voltari know how to repay her - with her death.

    I think that this book will be very interesting - and I'm glad she made it a full length book instead of putting it just in the movie guide!

  • Ahhh, The Sickness

    Finally, I'm over being sick.  Still have a nasty cough sometimes, but at least I don't have a fever and feel like utter crap all the time!  I do not have good health insurance - I do have some, but it has a very high deductible.  Basically, if I got into a terrible car accident, it would start paying for things.  Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I have it...but, it's times like these when you really need some help!

    It has taken over 2 weeks to get over this.  I was going to work - and that didn't help.  First, I went to the emergency room about a week after being sick.  They gave me antibiotics and some cough medicine.  I bet that is going to cost me!!

    Then, last week wednesday, I went to a place called Urgent Care.  They actually listened to me - I got much better antibiotics, steriods for my lungs, a nebulizer treatment, and a sample inhaler.  The doctor was very nice, and I figured that the prescriptions would cost me WAY too much - I was expecting over $100!  Well, once it all got totaled up, it was 6 bucks! WHOO HOO!

    Now I just have to wait for the ugly bills :(

    I've Got 99 Problems But A Dude Ain't One!

    Well, since this is my SECOND official post - that first one was kinda bull - I will tell you a little bit more about myself.
    In a few days, I will officially be a college graduate.  I'm quite excited for this fact - I've worked so hard for it.  However, judging on the state of everything, graduating right now kinda sucks.  That's why I chose to do another internship.  From February to late June I was at a community television station for my first internship.  I wouldn't have survived if it wasn't for my other classmates, or for the great other people who worked there.  Of course, it was unpaid, and I had to live at home.  My parents and family were going through a rough time and it was quite fun to deal with.  About four months into my internship, I started looking for real jobs.  The reason I went to college was so that I didn't have to work in retail for the rest of my life.  I sent out resumes and demos to television stations all over the state, and only got two letters rejecting me.  NO JOBS!  So, I talked to my college professor, and she suggested that I try a new internship.  It was a full year, paid, internship.  However, it was also two and a half hours away from home. This meant I would have to move, leave my friends and family, and go to a place where I knew nobody.

    I went to the interview, and it felt great.  Everyone was so great - all men of course, what else can I expect in TV?  It just felt right - unlike the bad anticipation I had for the other station.  I decided to take it!

    The move was painful - just like the numerous amounts of moves back and forth to college.  However, it wasn't an hour away!  My little car was packed, along with my dad's truck bed and full length trailer with my parents old furniture.  I hadn't seen my apartment yet - so I was afraid of the worst.  It's not bad, especially for the price.  I can tell you this - I'm paying much less for much more room that a dorm room!  And I don't have to share a bathroom!! :)  I don't have much, and it's hard to get used to, but I'm working on it.

    The hardest part is that I haven't made any friends yet.  I have the people I work with, but that is it.  I guess I am quite shy when it comes to meeting new people.  I come home from work, get on the computer, turn on the TV, and just sit here for a while until it's time for bed.  Then I sleep for about 8 hours, get up, do my morning routine, and go to work.  I look forward to going to work, because there, there are people to talk to.  I've spent a few weekends here (otherwise I head back "home") - and all I do is sit in my apartment.  Last weekend, I went out for an hour to go grocery shopping.  HELP!

    Sure, I'm interested in meeting a man, but at this point, I really don't care if I do.  I'm just going to let it happen this time - not force it.  It's gotten to the point though that a guy will look at me, interested, and I will look away.  I guess I just don't care.  Should I care?
