Roomate @ MindSay 
Oh boy , this is funny. my roomate..who has never had to work for anything... is on my back more so than my mom lately about me finding work. now i can understand u being like..hey, u shuld try here or u shuld try there, but to be like.."u need to stop sleeping during the day and find a job" is not acceptable. especially after i was explaining how my energy has been like oddly low lately. and ive had this one sided headache that has been plagueing me for like two weeks and counting. Im just really sick of it cuz its not like im not trying..and she told me that i can use her car to look for work while she is in class and all of a sudden now she is gonna "write down the bus schedule and leave me $5"...way to keep ur word.
and what also pisses me off is that ive been the only person cleaning the apt since dec and when ppl talk about how the apt looks.she uses the word "we" when talking about cleaning..like today i was talking to one of her friends about the ant problem the apt has and how i mopped and cleaned the kitchen and they like multiplied..out of no where she starts sayin "yea we wuld scrub the floors and they just eep coming". i swear, i wanted to be like."we scrubbed?" lol, but i was nice. She never cleans, unless its her room and thats only if a boy she likes is coming over...she'll do her room and then il do the rest of the apt...as usual. im gettin sick of it. ugh. and i was supposed to go to sleep but i got too ADD and started lookin stuff up..which sucks cuz i have to go to urgent care about my headache among other things..then i gotta look for work, and after all that buy some groceries with wat little money i have and then look at an apt my friends are interested in. life is just great u know.
I turned in my portfolio. I think that most of my stuff is good, but all of the craft, from everything is horrible. My boxes from 3D are put together so pathetically, and my teacher said that if craft is bad, they aren't going to even look at design. I have been thinking about all of my different options that will be open to me when/if I don't make it. I'm still pretty stressed about it, I'll get the results on Monday. They hand everyone an envelope and I'm going to wait until Steve gets home so that we can open it together and I'll have someone to support me. I'm so scared! I don't like not having a set plan for what is going to happen. I know that there is always something that could change plans, but I like having like a blueprint, which now, is all screwed up. ARGH!
I'm having a lot of trouble finding a job for the summer, no one seems to be hiring. Everyone is accepting applications, but no one is employing. I don't know what I'm going to do, I need a job for the summer, and one of my options from review is to skip Fall semester and redo Spring semester. Lots of stuff going on right now. Its crazy!
It has been forever since I last was on here. Not too much has changed, I don't think.
We moved out of Steve's apartment. His roomate was stealing from the university, and us. A lot of computer fraud as well. He was found guilty at one of his hearings lost his job, I think, and his girlfriend who was only with him for his money anyway, so she broke up with him.
We are trying to find a place for over the summer. I'm still a little worried about it. I know that we have moved fast, but he is going to be graduating next year, and then I will be up here by myself. I'm thinking we might need to wait for a while longer. It is almost too late to worry about this summer, its comming up fast.
I might change majors, again! I had to drop my major's class VCD this semmester, and I might take it up over the summer. A lot of stuff has been going on this semmester.
My chior director died from breast cancer, and my friend died in a freak car accident. I have been having bad migraines too. I just saw a specialist for them, and I now take Imitrex STAT Pen. AKA shots.
I think thats about it... like I said, not too much......
My roomate was telling me of an interesting incident that happened to her ...........she just came back from a weekend trip via greyhound bus. Unfortunately she had missed her first bus so had to wait hours for the next one. She finally arrived at the bus station here in DC at 2 in the morning.
She originally planned on taking the metro bus back to the apartment but at that hour, everything had stopped running and she didn't want to wake me up. silliness! okay, so she's out there in the city, with very few people around, and everything is closed.
well.......a man approached her to see if she needed a cab. Yes, she answered but then realized, he's no cab driver. He had a car, willing to give her a ride wherever for $10. Of course my roomate said no thanks. The man persisted though, he tried to persuade her to see that he was safe, just wanting to earn some money. ....that he was a family man. He even showed her the baby car seat in the back of his car. He was telling her about his wife and his children. He told her, .."you can take my cell phone and call your family with it so they will have my phone number". He even went as far as to allow her to scratch him so she could have his blood under her fingernails for DNA evidence if anything were to happen to her. ...which I found kinda crrrrazyyyyyy (but what an interesting idea he offered). anyways..... my roomate said no.
I know this may sound like I'm making a big deal about it...... but I am reminded of serial killers like Ted Bundy and his M.O. when I hear things like this. You can never be too careful with strangers, even if they seem completely legit. Bundy was able to gain the trust of countless young women by looking vulnerable, helpless, wearing an arm cast, and asking for assistance. The helpful, kind, woman was the easiest target. and they're dead now.
I'm glad that my roomate didn't take the man's offer even though she was extremely tired, and wanting to cry being out there so late alone. She felt bad for the dude since he seemed genuine and just hard up for cash, but who in the world knows what could've happened. He could have been totally safe but if not, that's not a risk you want to take with your life. If you feel bad....give him $10 and call it a day. or tell the stranger that approaches you, I'm sorry I can't help you but I'll call for someone to assist you with your stalled out car as soon as I can, or just ignore them. Whatever the situation is......just remember to play it safe.
