A Little Better

Well, I am feeling a little better now, things are not as catastrophic as yesterday. My situation does not look quite as dire as before, as hopefully I will get on working at Copperside again. They may be in need of "big guys" at copperside 2, since they had an armed robbery the other day, and it scared some staff away.

Also, I talked to dad today, and he insisted on helping me out a bit financially. It was odd, since most of the time, he has had less money than me, but he has insisted on it, so I gratefully accepted.

on a different note, Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody is awesome :)

P.S. Since I was not feeling happy, I was listening to a lot of music. However, I am not an emo, and so I did not listen to those emo-pop-garbage. No, for me it has been Metal and Punk for the last few days. It has made me more cheerful :)

I feel again like the dog stuck on the trafic island, in the middle of rush hour. Elements of the world flash by, confusing and terrible in power, ready to hit me at any moment should I unknowingly wander into their path.

So, I was not approved for EI. The insurance against lack of work will not cover me, because I have not had enough work. Think about that one.

So, I went to the welfare office, but I pretty much broke down with anxiety and tears and couldn't finish filling out the forms. I took the forms with me, but I feel critically depressed when I think about being on welfare, I think I would rather go back to Rupert than be on welfare. I just could not handle it.

I brought back all the cans and bottles that have been stored in the van since august, with intent to get enough money to buy the haggis and neeps for robbie burns day. I got 23 dollars, which is more than enough (haggis is typically 15-18 dollars). Then I came to another dissapointment, that no store in all of terrace apparently has haggis this year. I dont know what im going to do.

I still want to have some robbie burns celebration, but neeps is not enough.

I feel so much depression and rage. I just don't know what to do.

Prepare to Resume Communication

Well, the Holiday season is quickly coming to a close, and It has been full of the unexpected and the eventful.

Firstly, my employment at the coffee shop has discontinued. I was sorta half let-go/half quit, so its difficult to explain. Basically, the Lazy-ass boss that's useless in all ways (which is different than the other nice boss) called me lazy, and said I needed to stop playing around and get to work, or I would be let go. So I called him on it, thus kinda half-let go, half-quit.

Gotta keep this all short...

I went to Rupert for Christmas, had a good time, got to see many of my family and old friends, which was very good. It was good to see my brother Hans, as I have not in a while.

I got lots of cool presents, like the watchmen DVD, and a new awesome coat. ^_^

I held the first new years party I ever have, since I have an apartment now. It was quite fun, with a limited number of people, and nobody got sick or such, we all just had lots of fun, complete with a mild game of kings.

Allison goes home today, but it has been a good visit. ^_^

That's all for now. I am going to attempt to post more again. Now, it is coffee time.
