Weekly Woes

An update on my week:

I'm beginning to feel more at home since moving back. It's strange how you can spend over 4 years away from home but as soon as you come back it is like you never left. My bedroom seems smaller and I'll still never forgive my dad for not building me a bigger closet, but it is better than the run-down apartment I lived in in St. Louis.

The job search is getting better. I'm becoming more comfortable in interviews and I'm getting a lot of stuff done. I tried to volunteer this week but I got rejected. Seriously... so I can't get a job and they won't even let me work for free. My old high school started up a journalism club and I went to the teacher to try and see if they needed any help with editing, design, or anything basically so that I could get out of the house. He said they didn't need any help. Too bad. I could have told them it looks bad to use Courier font on a newspaper. Teachers in college won't even let you turn in a paper with that font. Oh well.

Anyways, I'm starting a temp position on Monday. I've never done this type of thing before but I'll just be doing secretarial type duties and at least it's not waitressing. I think I might have hurt someone if I had to serve another glass of White Zinfandel. Note to people. White Zinfandel is what 16 year old girls drink straight out of the bottle. It is not to be served at a fine-dining restaurant. Who wants to drink something pink with a $30 steak entree. I don't get it.
