Tina's Life as She Knows It

4th of July

It is the 4th of July 2006. There are no big parties to attend and I don't think my family even bought fireworks this year, and to top it off I'm sick. I barely got out of bed yesterday. I am normally the kind of person who gets sick once in the winter, generally around Chrsitmas, and thats it. This past year I have been sick at least 4 times including this. I'm not sure why.

I think this one might be becasue I am very stressed out with no prospects of any type of job for next fall. I might have to get a job at the mall if I don't hear from some schools pretty soon. Wouldn't that be nice, I have a 4 year college degree and I work at the mall. This is not what I saw my life turning out to be. I figured by age 24 I would at least have a decent job and some friends to go with it. But no, I have no job, live in a house my parents paid for, have no friends locally, and for fun I got and visit my sister and the baby. Six years ago if someone had told me this is what I had to look forward to I don't think I would have beleived them and also would have made me quit school. Isn't life grand....

I really need to do something proactive about this whole job situation. I feel like since what happened to me at Clover I can't get a call anywhere. I didn't do anything wrong other than have a life outside of the school, but that was apparently enough. I'm not sure what I can do other than apply at the public schools here, which I have already done. At least I'm not homeless, and have been making some money at my sisters dance studio. So thats something.

Julianna your couch is looking like a wonderful option right now :)
