Since it’s been pointed out that I’ve not made an entry for a while ( Hi Ernie! =D ) I though I shall make a quick update! So! Where shall I start…… ( ..Click here to read the rest...It's long >.> ) So, in conclusion. People still suck. If you are going to interview people, don’t be an asshat. I vow that the next company that fucks me around is going to get nasty letters, ( oooh scary -__-) I am sick to death of it! Anyway, no more bad thoughts. I’m going to have a good weekend of sight seeing….Just hope it doesn’t rain too much :D

Fuck the world & why it all sucks. 1. I got a job at a little drive through coffee shop after six weeks of job hunting. It was all very slow to start off, but then I had a training day! Then they warned me the new store I would be working at wouldn’t open till the middle of March. - Then there was silence. Then I was told that the store won’t be opening till the middle of April, minimum. I am without a job again.
- There are even less jobs advertised and none of them are suitable for students.
- Bills are getting bigger, money is non existent
- I have a horse on lease; now the owner wants to dishonour the contract.
- We paid $200-$300 getting the horse ready to be worked in a month
- She probably did it to get that stuff for free.
- I can’t afford legal help and the free services takes months
- I’m loosing my pony one of the few things that’s kept me going
- People wonder why I have no faith in humanity. It’s because everyone is only looking out for themselves,(Alex,2009) give them a chance they’ll steal from your rotting corpse. Fuck you all.

I have a applied for near on fourty jobs. From all these applications I have recieved about three replies. The rest haven't even bothered to ring or email back saying they recieved my resume, which is amazingly rude no matter which way you look at it.
After all this I have finally crushed my ego enough to apply for a position at McDonalds.
But guess what.....Even McDonalds doesn't want me. At least they emailed me back I supose but still, the point remains. Not even the 'equal opertunity work place of teenagers" will take me! I'm officialy doomed it seems.

So an update of my life. Still not job as of yet, although I have applied for over forty jobs I have received only three replies. From those three replies I had either no more contact or an interview followed by no contact. It drives me nuts. How bloody hard is it to let someone know you received their letter/phone call/email, even if it’s to tell them you’re not interested? Yupp, so no job, but Centrelink has finally given in and decided that I deserve student monies. Yay! I start university again on Tuesday! I have books, pens, paper and files, all organised!! I know shocking. This time I have vowed to every single person I’ve spoken to that I will be doing it properly. This time I am going to complete my degree, no ifs or buts. So I’m studying a Bachelor of Psychology and Bachelor of Commerce: Human Resources. The plan is that I –need- to get an average of 70% in all my psychology units. If I do this for my first year I get into the Psychology Honours program, which means when I graduate I am able to come back at a later date to do my masters and phd without a single hassle. Although at this stage I don’t plan to become a proper psychologist in the future I may change my mind, so I think it’s a good idea to keep my options open. Also saying I graduated with honours sounds a lot fancier than the normal. Also honours students get a lot more scholarships and nice things. I have no idea how realistic this goal is, but I figure it’s worth trying. See how I go. Tuesday, first class. Let’s see if I run away screaming :P

So it came to be that after all my complaining and worries that getting old must mean I’m a failure it came about that I had a very good birthday after all. (Thanks to the points made by my friends of course). Although my birthday activities were spread over a week long period, and did happen to include putting my back out, it has been a great week. The weekend before my birthday I went out to dinner with Jen and Lindi at the Gate. We had a fancy three course meal and then drinks afterwards which was just perfect. You can’t ask for much better than having a great night out with your friends. Except maybe an awesome teapot and set, which I just happened to get from Jen XD. On my actual birthday the family ( read Mum, brother and now Lindi, my adopted sister) I managed to get the brother and mother to agree to go to a real restaurant. Well sort of, but it was fancy and I enjoyed it greatly. Most importantly my mother got me the greatest gift EVER Tapis Rouge Tickets for Cirque De Sole Dralion, which for those who don’t know are the ultimate VIP tickets and the best seats available. I think I squeeeed for about a minute straight. XD Today we headed off to see the show and all I can say is…Wow….Seriously wow. There is no way I can really put the feeling I come away with from a show like that into words. It just doesn’t work. The show itself is amazing, the production values flawless, the lighting design amazing and of course most importantly the acts are awe inspiring and often amusing. I think I said this when I was the last Cirque show, but honestly Dirque De Sole is possibly the greatest thing on earth, winning over chocolate by just a few points.
Also because mother dearest and I were in the VIP section we got unlimited wine, beer and soft drink, special parking, free program and sound track as well as a delicious selection of food before and during the show. It was the perfect addition to a great show. I feel so cheerful right now =D So, in the end…Good birthday is good. You’ve just got to see what you’ve done, rather than what you haven’t.

Once again I have come to the conclusion that Birthdays are bad. On Tuesday the 3rd I turn 22. That's 22 years of life where I've done completely nothing of significance. 22 years in which I have completed a large amount of nothing. There are so many things that I thought I would have done by now, hundreds of things I had hoped to achieve but some how never got around to. I wouldn't call myself a faliure, but I'm damn close to it. I'm an unemployed, unskilled young woman who has great dreams she'll never live up to and getting older reminds me of how much time I'm wasting... I have two friends. No social life. I want to go out clubbing and pubbing like the good old days, but haven’t been able to do so for the past two years because I have no desire to go on my own. I feel like I’m missing a part of my life and it’s not just the clubbing, it’s the whole social aspect, going out and pretending that this isn’t my life. I just hate Birthdays, they don’t make me feel lucky for everything I have, they make me depressed because they remind me of how much time is passing and how much I’ve not done. I’m sitting here trying to think of something I’d like to do on my Birthday…..But I can’t think of a single thing. Not one thing apart from sleeping…..And that’s what upsets me…..

Despite everything the year started off fairly alright.
Considering I am unemployed, running out of money, without a horse despite many plans, lost confidence in myself due to aforementioned unemployment and without any direction in my life at all. I have just been cruising along enjoying the time off and pretending that nothing else matters.
Last week I finally got my act together and I have decided that I am back off to university, with any luck this will be the last time. Unfortunatelyfinding jobs at the moment is not an easy task. Unless you're a middle age woman with reception experience then there's little out there.
Today stuff happened:
Got invited for an interview with a job that may be rather suitable to my needs - GOOD!! Found the perfect place to agist potential horses for a nice cheap amount - GOOD!! Created wanted adverts for suitable and cheap horses, and got responses - GOOD!! Found out the other house my mum owns caught on fire smouldered a bit- Er what??......
So I guess.... 3 out 4 were good things?.....

Sooooo....Another year, this one ending in 9....Nice....
I saw this, it amused me.
Last thing you did in 2008: Battled the door of my computer to stay shut then stood near the radio to work as antenna.
First thing you did in 2009: Curse the radio station for not playing the new years count down but instead playing a song by Pink
Happy New Year everyone! May this one be better than the last few.

| Life is suck |

The last weeks have been so full of suck.
Firstly there’s been problems at work, and without revealing everything about it basically it’s like this. Company A owns the place I run. Company B has a contract to run the place and I work for Company B. Company A are just arseholes, nothing more to be said. Company A’s representative who we shall call Asshat has had it in for me and my boss, who we shall call Bossman, from the very beginning.
So between having no idea what I’m doing and not being told that I had to do something until it was two months late by Bossman, and being constantly hounded by Asshat, as well as various mini asshats known us customers, I was at breaking point.
Amusingly enough before I could snap, Company A demanded to Bossman that I resign due to my obvious incompetence. Now I’ll admit, things haven’t been as good as they should have been, but I’ve been no where incompetent. Also in my defence if Bossman had actually shown me what the fuck I was supposed to be doing in the first place, then things may have been different. But I digress…..So I have until the first week of January to be out.
I’ve been upset about this, but the more I think about it the more I realise it’s probably for the best. All people do here is complain and nothing…I really mean nothing, you do makes them happy. I have been trying not to think about it to much, it’s a horrible blow to my ego, being told your hopeless and incompetent. To make it worse I can’t even defend myself.
So yeah fuck you company A.
Secondly I was buying a horse. I found him, turning down one other nice horse in order to get him. A delivery date and everything was set. The a whole fucking week later, the owners ring me and let me know that they’re no longer selling the animal. This pisses me off for so many reasons, not to mention that because of the whole life sucking thing, I had been concentrating on getting a horse as a way to forget about everything else. It was the thing I was really looking forward too. So buh….Arseholes, if you promise to sell something then sell it, don’t let people get their hopes up, it’s plain rude.
So yeah fuck you horse sellers.
The house is a mess and I have an inspection tomorrow but I’m just so unmotivated the world just sucks and it seems that no matter what I do, everything always goes wrong.
To make it worse I’m working at my workplace still. Still being abused and complained at, but this time with no purpose because I’m not working toward anything. It’s taking a great deal of my self control to tell these wankers to fuck off. I think today when Bossman comes back from the meeting, if he complains about anything I’ll just leave. I have four weeks holiday pay, and I know I could use it.

Went riding today. It was all sorts of awesome because we went into the big paddock. I trotted for a while and even went so far as to canter for a bit as well. Apparently I'm looking all sorts of awesome for a beginner while I trot, though I imagine I look the fool when cantering since I just can't stop laughing for some reason XD
Saw 'Australia' the movie yesterday and as such when SR and I were riding in a large paddock with a cow, we decided to be drovers and attempt to herd the cow around. I think the cow is smarter than us though, but it was still great fun.

Dinner...I cooked it and it was good.
It's been a long time since I've cooked an actual meal but since I have a house guest it makes cooking worth while.
So SR's been here for over a week now....Aaaaand we've done nothing...Well we went to Perth the other day, looked at black swans and had McDonalds in the city since we couldn't find anything else around there!
Maybe this weekend once my pay comes in we can do something...Like see kangaroos..Preferably ones that aren't dead on the side of the road. >.>
In other horse news, SR's been attempting to teach me to ride. Was bareback on Trevor attempting to touch my toes without falling off, not an easy task by any means *_* All in all not sure how the learning of riding went, but I had fun :3

The weather is making a liar of me. So SR is finally here in Australia and all it does it rain, typical. We went riding today though then the rain came and wouldn’t go away, I’m sure it felt rather homely for SR =P Got soaked through, had a cup of tea and some chocolates, t’was a fun evening, something different.
Ugh, need to start nano...Already three days behind.
Ugh….back to work tomorrow….

Anyway enough about horses, I just felt like talking about them and SR wasn't online
Speaking of SR.Six sleeps till she's here =D I should really move that fridge out of the spare room!

This last week the family and I ( read: Mum, Alex and I) went down to Albany, about five hours drive from us to scatter my dad's ashes.
It's now been over a year since dad passed away. I can't believe how time has passed, and the things I've done. When dad died I thought the world was going to end, obviously it didn't. I've gotten a great job, a good car and I traveled to europe. More things have happened this year than any other, there's no doubt about that.
My dad served in the Navy, one time aboard a ship called the H.M.A.S Perth. A few years ago the Perth came to the end of her lifespan and was scuttled off the south coast to be used as a dive wreck. Dad had always mentioned that he would like his ashes scattered there, so that's what we did.
I don't really like boats, at all. But surprisingly enough I actually enjoyed the boat ride, it ended up being rather relaxing. So finally we scattered dad's ashes over the dive wreck of his old ship, and end to an end I suppose. It was a very surreal thing simply because there was no way my brain could associate that this fine, almost rocky like dust was what was left of my deceased parent, but at the same time I knew it was and this really was the last goodbye. Very odd, but a very brief feeling.
After that was done we ( or rather I) partook in the delights of Albany ( read: dead stuff, cemeteries and churches). I had fun, although going without the internet for three days was sad :P

[18 Aug 2008|03:59am] |
Just got home from seeing VNV Nation live at Sin, and wow, what a night was it.
They are just as brilliant sounding live as they are recorded. It was terrific to hear this wonderful emotive voice in person, and not just from a CD.
Seriously one of the best concerts I've ever been too...Tied for the top with Sonata Artica though.
The band seemed to have a good time, which is heartening. I just hope it helps the international music community realise that Perth is a good and fun little market to be tapped into and come over more often.
Anyway, I should sleep ;D

And it is showing around the dates of my birthday, how convenient :P HINT HINT
