Is it ever gonna be enough?


Did they tell "you you should grow up" when you wanted to dream?
Did they warn you, "better shape up, if you want to succeed"?
I don't know 'bout you, who were they talking to?
They're not talking to me...

Did I ask you for attention, when affection is what I need?
Thinking sorrow is perfection, I would wallow until you told me,
"There's no glitter in the gutter, there's no twilight galaxy..."

And my job hunt continues...

So H&M didn't work out, which is unfortunate because I need money and I might have actually enjoyed working there. I think what made me most upset was the fact that after two interviews, they didn't even call me to tell me I didn't get the job, I got a pretty cold email 3 or 4 days after the second interview...

I hate job hunting, not only because it means I'm broke, but I often feel really useless. Looking at pages of jobs and finding only a select few that I'm even qualified for is kind of a downer. Now is probably the WORST time to be searching for a job too. Craigslist ads are few and far between, let alone finding somewhere I'd like to work. I've already lowered my standards quite a bit, but as long as I'm not applying to work at McD's, I think I can keep some dignity.

On another note, I've been rearranging my apartment a bunch today and I've come to the conclusion that I want a house. REALLY BAD. This is probably stemming from not working and watching Debbie Travis and other various home decorating shows in the mornings, but I really do want a house. I think my kitty would like a house too. She's been really whiny lately and I think it's 'cause she's bored with the apartment. I mean, there's only so much to explore, and she only likes playing with toys if they involve me throwing them. She's adorable though, even when she whines.
