Look This Way

What. The. Fuck.

Sorry for the language in this post but I'm fucking pissed.

Well I got hired on the spot at the interview for Seattle's Best Coffee. The interview went smooth = uber proud. I didn't plan on telling anyone (family members wise) about it. Why? They don't need to know. It's my problem anyways, no? Having them knowing just leads to more annoying questions about the job and everything. And parents like to butt into issues that don't concern them anyways. Well when I got home I totally forgot one of my references listed is one of my mom's co-workers. Well, fine.. it became the inevitable. I guess she'd find out sooner or later, so whatever. When my parents got home from work, she approached me with a rather unpleasing, angry face with the question, "Which Seattle's Best Coffee did you apply for?"... O-kay, why the face? Shouldn't you be proud or some shit like that? I guess not, considering she didn't know any of the circumstances nor would she care in the first place. Then she went on with the "You better treat your aunt for dim sum." It's as if references are used like pets where they would say a few good words and then you give them a doggy treat for a job well done. Aha. Not that I mind treating, but one meal = a big chunk of a paycheque? When treating these crazy ladies, it's no treat-you-to-a-$5-coffee type of situation -at ALL-. Anyways, that's not why I'm still upset... I just went off-topic. Bah, it's just depressing and discouraging when you do your best and they don't give a damn, hey? I swear that's why I always give up early or before I even start. And another reason why I don't like telling them things is so I can feel some independence and deal with things myself. Apparently doing so just makes them angry at you instead BECAUSE they know nothing and think you're doing nothing. Now if they really knew me, did they know I use the computer to make sites not play fucking games. I haven't even touched a game in the last two months. Not saying I've made many sites lately either though... But the thing is, parents seem to assume too much without bother researching. "Oh sure she likes pink." WTF PINK? "Who the fuck would like pink?"-kinda situation. Or any other bad example, not that I have anything against the colour pink. Okay off topic again...

I forgot about getting pledges for the 30-hour famine so I passed my form to my mom just now. And the response? "Why the hell didn't you give it to us before promotion [at work - a busy time]?" Hmm, I didn't get the form yet then. "Why the hell didn't you give it to your grandma when you had lunch with her last weekend?" Um, why are you angry? If you can't get pledges then that's COMPLETELY FINE YOU KNOW. Don't need to get ANGRY over it. It's voluntary anyways. But of course, getting as much $$ as you can is always good. It's still nothing to get steaming angry over, is it? And fuck that ruined my day some more. And when I thought it was a good start too... (Except the fact that my phone died this morning because it didn't charge properly this morning and I had to use the icky icky payphone)

Not to mention the king crab at this shit restaurant I didn't like (because of the dinner we had for Mike's b-day at the same restaurant sucked ass), indeed sucked. It was done bad, the service was bad, and annoying questions about the job popped up here and there. I had no intention on answering... I answered as few as I could. I also saw someone I didn't wanna see nor have him see me but I think he did when he was leaving cuz I saw the damn smirk on his face. Ass. I thank my bro for being there though. He didn't step on me with my parents like he'd do sometimes... My parents like him a lot more and when he's around, the attention is diverted to him more than me.

Okay, I am done. I am (relatively) happy again.
I will return to putting up my new layout. Bubye for now.
