Mood: better

Last week was a real (insert favorite adjective here) at and 1st shift, as usual, had to end things on a particularly “high” note.

To begin with, I hadn’t had that good a week anyway. Seems every day someone was finding cause to yell at me. First there was the missing tails on the “4″ in the lettering on top of about 20 of the 3600 screwdrivers I’d made. (1st shift made it sound like it was everything I’d made.) Then, I refused to go over to the machine called “Cell 1″ and I’m in trouble. Because I’m was not going to clean up Sarah’s mess over at “Cell 1″, I’m in trouble. Then, I hadn’t made out some labels correctly and I’m in trouble yet again. Finally, I was assigned to sort through nut driver blades to search for rusty ones.

And 1st shift comes in to replace us and throws a royal tantrum. They don’t have time to sort through blades. I hadn’t sorted them correctly. There was nothing wrong with the ones I’d sorted. I don’t know what the problem was.

Oh, and we had snow. Lots and lots of snow. So it took about 45 minutes to get home, when it only usually takes about 15. (Maybe that’s why they had to be so awful.)

Anyroad, I’m sick to death of being yelled at.

Spent most of yesterday sleeping. Actually, I pretty much slept from 10am Friday until 8am Saturday minus an hour or two here and there for biological functions. I also hit iTunes pretty hard and downloaded some more Gackt, mucc, and Miyavi. During one of my awake periods, I downloaded the latest Naruto Shippuden episode and had a good laugh at Cap. Flashlight Face and Mr. Penis.

If I can ever get to the bank (nope, I still haven’t! XD) I’m placing an order with ThinkGeek and getting Kevin’s X-mas present (I hope he isn’t reading this!) and then finally getting my paid LiveJournal account.

In the meantime, I need to do a little yoga and see if I can lose the stiffness from sleeping almost 24 hours. Oops, and gotta get some groceries before the next snow storm arrives. ETA is in about 3 hours and counting.

Mood: burnt out

I’m having one of those months where I’m just kind of “blah” about everything. My favorite character is back in the Naruto manga and I strangely can’t dredge up the energy to feel excited about it.

Anyway… good news: Everyone, including me, is now employed. I’m starting over at Kalfact Plastics tomorrow night. Mom works there, same shift, so there’s no extra gas being wasted to get me someplace else.

The bad news? It’s third shift. Well, depending on how you look at it, I guess. I’ve always been a night owl, now I just get to work through the night instead of aimlessly surfing or reading. I’ve just kind of been sitting here wondering “What on Earth have I gotten myself into?”

Good news: Three weeks left before summer break starts.

Bad news: I don’t think I can get any more burnt out on school. I do not want to do my homework, I don’t want to attend, I just don’t want to do it. I really hate my geography class, even though I’m doing really good. It’s just… troublesome. lol I learned APA format years, they hammered it in all my English classes here at Baker, but yet now I’m suddenly not doing it right according to this instructor. I’m doing it the way I was instructed to in all my English classes. *huff* I need the summer off, badly.

Gotta get the newsletter out for Lunaescece, this month it’s just going to be random. I don’t have the time to waste waiting for people to nominate things.

Just like Ronin Warriors, I’m pulling out of Naruto now too.

It’s not even worth recounting. Basically, I said very sarcastically that there’s some unwritten rules that everyone has to follow to avoid insulting the trio of “regs.” And they blew up. I’m the one being rude, I’m the problem. They’re just innocent victims.

Basically, the typical shit that I should expect after all these years.

If I ever post about joining or participating on another forum other than my own, please kick me.

Mood: Disappointed

What is it with me and fandoms? First RW terminally pisses me off, now Naruto is edging that way for me.

There’s a few guys on the Official Naruto thread on Gaia Online who are so damned dogmatic it’s impossible to have a conversation or a debate about something or a character they don’t like. It’s the whole homogeneous opinion bullshit all over again. Wasting energy despising a fictional character too. If you disagree, it’s cause for personal insults and mocking in chat speak.

I really hate to pull back because it’s one of the only Gaia Online threads I’ve actually enjoyed for the most part. I know everywhere is going to have trolls, but it doesn’t mean I have to put up with it.

Anyway, no news on the job I applied for yet. That’s either a good thing or a bad thing, depending on my mood. The listing is still up, so it’s probably going to be a while. In other news, I got a whopping $600 of student refund money, so I think I’m going to buy Adobe Photoshop and maybe Illustrator. (Depends on if I can buy the student versions.) It might help me if I get to interview and say, “In anticipation for this position and to provide the best services possible, I began training in Photoshop and Illustrator.”

Still obsessed with Naruto.

Still very short on money, especially now that I have to pay for my insulin out of pocket. ^^;

Figured out how to add a few things into the site, namely program the deadline function for challenges.

Overall, nothing new to report.
