wow.... it's amazing how much can change in such a short time.... I forget, is 2 years a short time? Overnight at Mcdonalds was not my dream job. The laughing stoped, I lost what ever little life I had, and people treated me like the gunk you scrape off your shoe. I've picked up bad habits such as swearing, and my temper and patients were quickly lost. However I was told by many that I lasted longer there than any one else, and with all the bull I put up with, it's a surprise that I lasted as long as I did. It was such a realife when I quit. It's even more amazing that I've quite that job, just to find another one at.... yup... you guessed it: McDonalds. People seem to be alot more friendly hear, so hears for fresh starts.
On top of that, I'm finally out of my old appartment and my old life. I actually have one now! I live with my boyfriend about 30 minuets away from where I used to live. It still close to my family (he's wishing we were farther) but they don't bother us much except on sundays. I'm starting a new job, and the house... that's right we have our won house, is comming along nicely. I even have a section of the house as a studio for my jewlery and since then have really taken off in doing things with my hands. I still have to work on an actual schedual so I'm a little more productive, but things seem to be looking up already.
But let's get back to why I'm really writing this. I'm back... or at least I'm trying to be. I see alot's changed. Not that I haven't noticed before, but I mean I see new threads and new guilds. So I spent the better part of today going through my files and deleting friends, threads and Guilds to start completly over.... No... I'm not going to start that far over, so stop eyeing my wings. Along with my hope to stimulate some activity in the forums, I am going to try some new things, like being more mature. I like the cute Nefidean alot, but I need to grow up a bit more and actually carry on as a professional........ I'll see how long that will last. -.-
Anyways, I hope to be updating things alot more, starting a new site for my jewlery and hopefully be able to sell things there, I already have Ellis_Uni from my old haunting grounds do some templates for me. (Bee as I know her) Is also helping me make sure I have all my leagel ends looked at. (Help meaning she's pointing me in a direction and I'm hopeing I know what I'm doing.) I'm trying to take things seriously. And hopefully I can produce, not only more things, but better quality things in my art as well. I'm already pleased with the progress I made last year, and am greatly looking forward to some ideas I want to pan out on my own. So wish me luck, keep checking in, and kick me in the butt if you think I need it.

Okay, many of you may know, I'm working at Mcdonlad's again. For those of you who don't know or remember the hell I went through the last time I worked there, I'm pretty sure the old journals are around here some where. How ever this time it's some what diffrent.
The Up Side: I'm a manger now! I actually have power, athority, and I get free food! Yum! (Sad part about it, I'm actually loseing weight some how....)
The down side, I have to work at nights. That's right! from 12 midnight till 8 am in the morning.
The Upside again: It's alot slower then the normal day shift, wich means less stress... what stress there is on the week days is only for an hour. (I can handle that)
The Downside: All the... er... "wonderful" people I get to meet.... yeah... ninja **decides to put spikes in the drive through for drunks.**
The Upside: I get paid $1 more an hour just for working the night shift (God Bless Night-differentals) and another $1 more for being a manger. That's right I make $8 whole dollars! xd Not that I'm bragging
The Up-Upside: I have money now! WOO HOO!!! I officially paid off my bills with one pay check! (well 3/4 of my bills but hey... don't ruin my good mood) So hopefully by the end of september i'll be able to get what I've always wanted.... A Laptop! I've been wanting one of these since I was 8. EIGHT! do you know how long that is in Nefi years! FOREVER! gonk and in about two short months (or four more checks) I'll be able to obtain it! and Write where ever I go.
Down side? o.O: I can't buy more then 20 dollars worth of me stuff for that time. Wich means. no more snakies. But with all the walking I'm doing (I walk to and from work) I should lose lots of weight! Which isnt' really a down side more then a awww man I can't have my nutty bars on my days off.
Stepping away from the ups and downs of the new job and what now. I'm going to focous on a part of my job I love to talk about. The "Wonderful People"
sweatdrop People are always intresting on the late night. If we don't get one wierdo, or guy who hits on me for free food, or someone calling up wanting us to deliver to him... it's a very slow night.
And people can't read! We have a limited menue on our late night... and when your read it off to me... we only have those things. No Dollar Menu! For crying out loud... you just read off the menu three times. It wasn't there, It's not going to magically reapear. stare
And oh the drunks... 2-3 is offically the Drunkard's Hour... know why. All the bars close at 2!!!! That means all those little miscriatns are coming to my store wanting food we don't have then either hitting on me for the said food. or barting/bribing for it. or just lovingly demanding for it. gonk
I've had some wierd calls on my shift too. Like a guy calling around "looking for a good time" and calls up Mcdonalds. (Told him twice! Twice who he was talking to... and still presisted he wanted to hook up and have a good time. baka)
Got some prank calls... NO we don't sell Hotdogs! and no you can't have any frenchfires to stick them up your a**. (some one actually did call this in) and if your going to prank some me.... I'll play alone, I'll answer all of your questions seriously, So if you want to know what's on our menu, You'll hear what's on our menu. Every Single fricken Item and their variations in a sweet unannoyed voice. I have the patients of a saint (so I've been told) I also have a brother who prattles on about games and shows every moment of the day.... I'm used to it. Nothing can get to me that easily.
Aside from people who come in, I work with only a handfull of other people. I love working with Bill. He's hallarious... and for some strange reason is bent on overseeing my couruption. His Happy Salad Dances Scare me though... but not as bad as Phill's.... er... Noises (he claims that they are sigining) How ever Phill is no longer with us due to unforchant cerimstances.
Intresting facts though I've found about the Overnight.
1: Nefi Often refers to her self as then imaginary alter ego in third person. (Translation: I've been calling my self Nefi in real life)
2: McFlurries make me sick in the summer
3: The Shake mechine sounds like Seals when it goes into heat mode.
4: Bill Is scarry
5: Anne and Sandy are scary in a whole diffrent way.
6: Sharon is Munchin, Jess is Bobble/Bobble-head, Nellie is Alice.
7: Soda=coffee. twisted Did I mention I can have as much as I want? (Hear's Syrani cringing in fear)
8: No matter how busy you are. if you make under 500 it's not consicderd busy.
9: Cupons Suck!
10: I hate Salads... well makeing them at least.
11: I hate Salads Twice as much when there's Cupons!
12: You can never have enough Salads. gonk
13: Bill is Scary
14: No matter how many salads you make It's not enough.... and when you over do them... they're too many.
15: Day before Truck Is fun! We don't have anything!
16: Apparently Burger King has the same problem! Suckers!
17: The Automatic cream Dispencers are a pain in my butt... and messy too.
18: Bill is scary
19: Your supposed to sweep and mop every 20 minuets
20: People Don't know how to put things back where they go.
21: We find things in the wierdest places.
22: The Sauce Guns when the fall on the floor spray even to the roof
23: We find sauce in the most intresting places.
24: People are sick, lazy, greedy digusting pigs! (And at night mostly drunk)
25: Bill is scary....
but Yeah. I love my job for the most part... It's funny too. (You have to be there most of the time.) But with all the free food and what not! Who's Complaning!! heart
Here's to Mcdonalds! The most Screwed up Place I know!

Yes I know, it's not christmas... but ever since my parents broke up me and my mother and brother haven't celebrated "Christmas" We've always done 3 Kings Day/Taxes Day wich normally come in around January/Febuary. Mainly because my brother would be off with his friend's family in another state, and I would be down here with my Dad becuase he's closer and it's easier to plan things. But in Febuary Aub has his winter break, and things arent' so busy with my brother, and the christmas rush is finally over. What's that? It's March you say!? Well... yeah...
Things have been severarly tough on my mother and I since the divorce, and the divorce fulled alot of.... problems... we both had between eachother. But It's also been really tough on both of us finacaially. As I listed in before in a previous entery that I my mom has been going through great changes and starting to change as far as what has happened in the past. Alot of this has to do with the new job she has aquired due to some unfairness of her old one (Being Fired because some raciest person decided to fixate her attention randomly on my mother and even with overwhelming proof that the woman was lying my mother was still fired) The job my mother has now, is working in school for wayward boys who have had abusive parents or no family at all that has caused them to be... less civilized as far as socity is concerned.
My mother has worte me saying that working in this sort of job has 1: Given her alot of time to think, and 2: seeing how so many stories are simular to our own, and is greatful that by The Grace of God both my brother and I have not ended up in a situation like that. (My bother was close to that situation more then any of would like to admit, but as my last entry went, you can see how alot of things have changed.) The words my mother wrote to me though have been words I've waited nearly half of my life to hear. It isn't so much an appology that I ever wanted... but an admitance that she knew how I felt... and I got that...
It's strange how things that we want arn't always what we get, sometimes they are better sometimes they are wost. This time it's alittle of both. Me and my mother had alot of serious problems that I may never forget and are still very hard to get over. But I never thought my mother was a "Lousy Mother." though I did need alot more from her then what she gave. My mother feels that with this admitance, she has also proven to be a lousy mother... i hope in her heart of hearts she doesn't truely believe that. Either way, I hope to better things with my mother, starting with telling her how much I love her.
On a lighter note... though that was something I've wanted. I got something more for Christmas/Three Kings Day/Taxes Day My mother sent me check for 150 dollars to spend on my self. For those who don't know I've always been short at the end of the month and haven't been able to buy my self things I've wanted... but with this, I hope to buy something I've been needing in a way for such a long time. A Scanner. I should even have enough left over to buy some DVDs and Games, even some Jewlery supplies I've been looking at. But one thing I think I'm going to buy frist is a Nice frame for this letter...

My brother is visiting from NY. If any one knows my family history... or rather my History with my family you would know that the two people in my family I get along with he least are my mother and my brother. But lately I have been on very good terms with the both of them. As I was saying, my brother is visiting from NY. He's leaving tomorrow morning, so I got to spend time with him and my dad and steps. It was a great time of movies, gorging of Nefies, and picking of fun. Of course me trying to steal the three extend dvd collections of LotR ninja Plans have failed though. crying
It started out fine, I was kind of disapointed, I came over and they were watching Spiderman 2. I sat on the couch and watched it and my brother didn't even bother saying anything wich can be a good thing, but I came over to see him. Then He and my step mom started playing Mario Party 7 and then the both the picking of fun and gourging of Nefi's began. I do oh so love the gourging of Nefies cause I end up leaving plesently plump if I'm not kidnapped. I was skittish about getting food because I had only planed on staying a couple of hours, but they brought out rye and pumpernickel bread and spinich dip. Yum! I got to have my fill of it and went to go get soda for my Step mother and step brother. That's when I teased about them having tacos with out me and they said I could go have some... so of course I went and had some. Then my dad came out and started makeing Fried Icecream. A ChiChi's specialty that my brother picked up on and started makeing for us at home. And my mom decided she was going to pawn her share of on me. I said no. stare too much food in one hour.
I was getting ready to leave and my brothers and step sister started to play Disney's Triva Pruist.... I wasnt' aloud to play because I always win.... IT's not my fault I've seen almost every Disney/Pixar movie that's been made besides Pochohontas 2, and Jungel Book 2, and Gorge of the Jungel 2... but those don't really count because sqeuals suck. By the way if any one knows where I can pick up the old retro movie Bed Knobs and Broom Sticks, let me know. I'm dieing to see that again. 3nodding This is where the main picking of fun began. I've come to realise that most of my sarcasim and wit comes from being around my brother so much. I can't believe people take him serious. Here's some examples. (it's also scary how intuned we are too.)
Q: The tagline "They turned a lost island into a Tropical Pardise" Is about which family.
Aub: Hey Dad. Do we have any SWISSMiss?
Jimmy: Swiss miss? what's that?
Me: It's hot Coco Jimmy.

Rita: Hey Didin't we already do this one?

Rita: Yeah Isn't he cute!? 4laugh
TV: NAME THE ACTOR THAT PLAYS GORGE.

Me and Aub: **look at eachother and bust up laughing.**
Me: Is that your final answer.

Movi Clip: Parent Trap Remake (Linsye pulling her yellow duffle bag out of a truck and talking about Vinyards.)
TV: WHAT COLOR WAS HALEY'S DUFFLE BAG!
Aub: OH NO!!! **berries his face in his hands!** I WHAT COLOR WAS HER YELLOW DUFFLE BAG!!! I DON"T KNOW WHAT COLOR HER YELLOW DUFFLE BAG WAS!!! gonk **looks up at me.** uh yeah.. if you didn't know I just answered the question. xd
Q: Name the movie these pitcures are form. (Seagul beaks poking through a sail)
Rita: FINDING NEMO!
Q: Which movie is this tag line from? "there are 3.5 billion fish in the.... (Doesn't bother finishing it.)
Me: Okay rita got it.
Rita: YEAH IT NEMO! xd
Aub: You didn't finish the question!
Me: Does it really matter she knows what it is. stare
Aub: That's not the point!
Rita: **is danceing cause she knew the answer total 2/20**
And my two fravrites of the night between Rita and Jimmy.
Q: Whom does this woman fall in love with. (Lady from 101 Dalmations, animated versions)
Jimmy: Albert! Arnold! I know it begins with an A!
TV: Roger Radcliff!
Rita: Oh yeah Jim! That's an A... Like that's as far from an A as a Q! (totaly picking a random letter)
Start of Game and rolling for who goes first.
Jimmy: Arn't you suppose to Roll both dice.
Me: No jimmy not when your rolling for placeing.
Aub: Yeah Jimmy!
**five minuets later**
Rita: Can I play too?
Jimmy: Sure thing, but we got to Roll for who goes first agian. **moves dice peices back happy to do so, because he rolled 2 ones and Aub like a 5 and a 6.**
Rita: Arn't you supposed to roll both dice?
Jimmy: **Acting all smart** No Rita, not when yoru rolling for placeing.
Rita: Oh.
Aub: Yeah Jimmy!
Me: That's Rita.
Aub: Oh yeah! Yeah Jimmy! xd
Yes there were some more stuff like this... you proubly had to be there to find it funny, but yeah... it was a great time. I tried one more time to escape the house with the three dvds again... but failed... decided to stick with the last one... got caught... brother threaten to put me in the hospital... would have taken him up but I already missed a day of work this week. whee
I love my widdel brother heart

For all of those out there who know me... and even those who don't. I have a pray request for my self... I don't normally do this, but... things are getting really bad around her. It's been 5 months since I've held any sort of job. I've moved from one bad sitution to another. Things weren't good where I was. I was treated too much like a child, and expected to be adult. I had a job, I didn't like it, but i worked hard at it. and I dont' have anything to show for it. not one cent, everythign I got either went to my dad, or went to my bank which intrun went to being used for rent and instaltion of things here with my mom. Now... I dont' have any sort of job. No money, soon to have no tv, phone, internet or even elctict which means no hot food, no cold foods, no heat, not light no nothing but some place to keep the rain off my head. and the bad men away form me. I can't pay for anything, while my mother who works double shifts pulling in money, and I see nothing of it eccept for food every once in a while. What does it all go to? My grandmother Electric, My mom's Brand new Jeep (1 or 2 years old) my mom's 5th cell phone, medical bills.... and stuff she buys for other people. Yet she blames everything on me that the bills arn't paid, the house isn't clean, and everything that's wrong is my fault.
Look, i'm not a saint. I don't clean every singel day, but I'm the only one who does, I sweep, I do the dishes, I cook her damn food and bring it up to her in bed and she doesn't even have the curtisy of bring them down to the kitchen when she's done so when i get ahold of them. they are stuck on, gross, sometimes still have bones and what not on them. I do her laundry, and I do try to keep the house neat. I'm still not unpacked because things she has around is takeing up the place. (my china is sitll under my dresser, but her china is down stairs on the book shelf and that's okay, and her books are the only ones that are down there.) It only takes about $500 for phone, internet cable, rent and electric. pluss another 100 for food. 600 dollars a month is not alot to go by. But now I owe 600 dollars alone to the cable company because my mother refused to pay the first bill. and just let them pile up on her. includeing the electric. My land lady calls five or six times a month for her 350 for rent.
Job placement isn't very good around here. All I need is a job. And I have been trying. People won't even look at me because I'm only 19 years old, i have no schooling other then high school and one incomplet year of college, 4 moths of real work which i had to leave becasue i was forced to move out of my step mother's house. Because i wasn't welcomed there either. I don't want to go on welfare, odds are I won't be accepted for welfare. I'm not asking for much... just a good job. that pays maybe 6.50 an hour 40 hours a week that i can at lest tolrate... and belive me... that's not asking alot.
Please... if you believe in prayer... please... pray for me. I desperatly need it. More then anything else.
