The 'What happened to you today' thread

[The SheoDovah]

Researching tomorrow. Well, i say researching, it's kinda hard to do so as there's not much to the company. It''s a glass company and well, i can't really say that much. But with luck, i shall ace the interview. Provided, the nerves don't affect me.

If i do get the jurb, i do have the "Oh [&@%!], i have barely-no cash to last me til payday" issue but i'll speak to the jurb centre about it at the time i sort out coming off welfare. Either way, this has been a massive boost to my morale, a massive turn in jurb prospects. [&@%!] all luck to one interview. Proof that my damn Cover Letter works. Well, the one that i slightly modifed. Does mean saying goodbye to an old friend.

Beardy mcbeardface(not Bea De Fra) shall be missed. Mainly because i'll be hacking and slashing my way through it with a level one razor. My shaving perks are crap. Pretty sure i have the hair immune to damage glitch. Stupid Beardesda and their glitches.

Oh, hey Mars! How the [&@%!] did you get up there? Oh, well nevermind then

[MARS]

Quit my job. Finally free.

[MetaCthulhu]

Quit my job. Finally free.

What job?

Bartending feat. abusive boss.

Bartending feat. abusive boss.

Sounds like a [&@%!], sorry you ever had to go through that. I really hope things work out for you now in regards to finances and all stuff.

[MARS]

Well, my family probably won't let me starve or become homeless, but it's still not going to be pretty for at least a time. I don't care though, I'm just pretty happy to not be there anymore.

[BetaB17]

Well your happy, and that's what counts

[Cassandra]

Today was a nice warm Victoria day, so I did what anyone would do; dressed up like an elf and went outside.

Yeah, I'm weird.

Given the post before yours, I thought you gave up being in the night sky.

The stupidest dream ever:

I wanted to increase patriotism and turn to love and light so I was shown a strange dream.

In my dream, I was on a footpath while the cars were on the move.

Suddenly the ghost of Gandhiji came and crossed the road shouting "leave India".

Suddenly he was hit by a bus that moved away.

I had one of those "inspiration moments" while talking to myself about MER ideas. It was fun. Love those moments when you get decent ideas.

Had me jurb interview on Monday. Was surprised to find out it was an informal chat as part of the first round of applications but unlike, 4 years ago, it did not throw me off. Went well. Impressed the interviewer with my knowledge of the company and if i am successful, shall be invited back for a proper interview. Also registered with an agency. So with luck, Unemployed Dovah will be found dead on the side of the road after a Skooma overdose and Employed Dovah will replace him.

Employed Dovah is more or less the Sequel to Unemployed Dovah but due to cutbacks, it's the same old [&@%!] with a different plot.

Kinda treated meself to Undertaker's Deadliest Matchs and Top Gear:Challenges 2. I kinda had to order a new sim card for my broadband. It's how i top up and because Amazon wants paid deliever if you are not ordering something that is £20 or more, i decided to go "Ah, what the hell, it's only a few more quid." Surprisingly, it is due today.

Which, of course, means I get to play the British Waiting for the [&@%!] Delivery game!

The rules are simple:
1. You can not shower.
2.You can not go for a [&@%!] or [&@%!].
3. To make a meal is a risky move
4. Go slowly insane from the waiting.
5. SWEAR LOUDLY AS YOU DECIDE TO RISK IT AND THE DAMN THING KNOCKS AT THE DOOR THEN GOES!
6. Make a cuppa and cry.
7. Blame Aarah for it.

Today my mom told me that we're going to Fan Expo this year! I am super excited. This will be my first time going to a convention, first time cosplaying, the whole shebang. I'm already thinking up ideas for my costume...

[BetaB17]

I've always wanted to go to an Expo(especially an anime one), and I've even long time friends with a big time cosplayer Lucky. I envy you greatly

[Dirty Spaceman]

@Cassandra: Nice! I may go to Fan Expo this year if my fall co-op job ends up being in Toronto (it'd be my first time going to a con as well). I don't think I'd have the time or energy to do any cosplaying, but if I did, it'd be as Dr. McNinja. I could get the fully authentic look with just a quick trip to the nearest Party City!

Oh, enjoy yourself. I had fun everytime I went to a convention with friends. One time I played a game of Red Light, Green Light with Slenderman. I also bought Ghost in The Shell: Stand Alone Complex the first time I went to a convention which ended up being my favorite show. Cosplay is super cool but I've never done it at a convention myself. At least not yet anyway.

Last Tuesday I got back from Bulgaria. Bulgaria is great. There's lost of history left over from the days of the Byzantine Empire, and Ottoman occupation, as well some of its coastal towns originating as Greek colonies. Other than the history aspect it was (unexpectedly) a major party district where we were staying, which was a nice way to spend a couple of nights. I also got hit on by more guys than my girlfriend, which means I should probably start re-adjusting the vibe I give off.

On Wednesday I had a job interview with an investment bank. That went well, and on Thursday I was offered a 3 month position with their data-science team. I start Monday week.

Last night I was at a BBQ my girlfriend's family held, which was pretty fun.

[KingFeraligatr]

Got insulted for the umpteenth millionth time by nonexistent, pedantic voices. Eventually they insulted me for not looking at things correctly, so I had to quit what I was doing to get away from them. When I have stress, I'm not alone! I've got my own self (probably) insulting me in my head with voices that don't exist and make things far worse! Don't you just love that?

[ProphetDragon]

I made a new record:

Yesterday I studied 21 hours. Starting from 6 AM in the Morning to 3 AM of... well you know.

[The SheoDovah]

What has the Dovah been up to? Well, he saw his father a few weeks ago, had chinese with relatives, got a dodgy stomach as the result of the takeaway being [&@%!] and played the game of thrones. Still struggling to a job, he is. Wants to start life, he does. He can't due to the job holding him back. As in, his life can't start until he has a proper job. Being jobless sucks.

I tend to forego sleep when I'm writing. Forty hours or so is my record. Though it wasn't all writing and I was in no condition to keep count.

[BetaB17]

Only mildly on topic.. but my dog Holly just has the most interesting habits sometimes >_> On days when she wants to sleep in a bit longer and NOT get up n leave the bed, she cuddles up to my leg and typically under the blanket where it's warm

Keep in mind.. this isn't a dog that likes it under the cover, and aside from when she was a pup, she primarily sleeps at my head or off on the side

Tho in due credit this is sometimes bc it's a cold night/morning or she genuinely is in one of those bonding mood(i.e when I work later than usual, she HATES that from what I hear, literal tears sometimes)

Anyways, just felt like sharing that.. bc right now I have a basset nuzzled up to my leg

[MetaCthulhu]

Today I took the ACT for the fourth time. Math test was something deplorable, but I think I did a'aight in English, Reading, and Science

[The SheoDovah]

Today, I vented. Hard. Felt good. Concerning amount of self loathing though. Still, good to have a good ol' vent sometimes. Oh and i played games. Still nothing on the [&@%!] job's front. Almost a year since end of apprenticeship. Starting to think it was a big fat [&@%!] lie about it being "Easy way" into work. Load of [&@%!]. More or less at the limit of being jobless. Frustration is a common factor for me and it seems it doesn't take much for my self loathing to kick off some days. :-/ Pretty much it in my life. Exciting, ain't it?

I'll be staring at the wall if anyone needs me.
