Hohoho and a bottle of amarula

I finally got a job. At Barnes and Noble. Part-time. Starting on Monday. Should be good.

On a different note, the US has now broken their record for the amount of medals won at a non-US Winter Olympics. Yay.

Fun times

Did I just say "fun"? That's not what I meant. Anyway, so the search for a job continues. I keep thinking that someone has to hire me, maybe just a few more days, and a few days pass, and no one has hired me. Oh well. As Carrie Underwood would say, I'm running low on "faith and gasoline." Literally. Anyway...

On Valentine's Day, I went out to eat with like, twelve girls and I think there may have been two guys. They're from the church I've been going to for the past few weeks. It was alright, although I don't really like hanging with a bunch of girls. Gets kinda boring. Then we went over to somebody's house and converged with some more guys and had fondue. My stomach was actually stretched to the max, but others ate it. I met some nice people there, as well. We sang some. It was fun. So that's been my one true social outting for months.

Well, I think I'm going to go to bed so that I can get up tomorrow and contemplate my meaningless existence some more.

One year ago

I realized that I just past the one year mark for this blog - yeah, sometime in the last month. Pretty crazy, hey? This is my 203rd blog post. Who woulda thunk it?

Anyway, this post is, yet again, overdue. Let's see, may parents are coming into town for a visit tomorrow. My mom says she wants to shoot some pool, after I told her how much fun Nathan and I had doing it last weekend. It's her birthday on Saturday, so we might come up with something fun to do. As for a job, I've had a couple of interviews, so I keep thinking that something has to pan out. I have another interview tomorrow at that Japanese restaurant I was telling you about last post, so we'll see how that goes.

Well, that's all for now folks.

Well, this post is certainly long overdue

I think I have set the record for the longest time between posts, and for no apparent reason, too. Oh well.

Well, since my last post I quit my job. It was out of control silly. Anyway, I had an interview for a part-time job at Barnes and Noble, and I'm waiting to hear from them, and I also applied for a waitressing job and KoFusion, a nifty Japanese restaurant downtown. At least, I think it's Japanese. I have no idea - I hate Oriental food. Why did I apply, you may ask. Well, mostly because they had an ad in the paper saying they were hiring, and these days that's all it takes for me.

I spent almost all day working on my application to Cornell. Let me tell you, it's quite the process. I think I managed to convince Eran Eads that I was entirely serious about auditioning for American Idol. Now that would be funny. I didn't know he was going to take me seriously. Hey, maybe I'll surprise you all someday, and me, too. After all, I am taking voice lessons. Speaking of which, what are some good songs from musicals, preferably lesser known ones? I need some ideas, and I'm really only familiar with mainstream ones like all the Andrew Lloyd Webber and Les Miserables, which have been vetoed due to overkill by my voice teacher. That is, my teacher says they have been overdone in general, not that she killed the musicals single-handedly. Anyway...

So, that's me. Loved the pics, Janelle.
