goin up to big river

It'd be great if this picture was of me giving the finger to RED.


So tonite I'm going to go see the Johnny Cash musical. And as you all know, I love Johnny Cash. I mean how could you not love the guy. Stephen was able to get me the tickets and I'm overly syked.

Thank you Stephen... you're plush.

%#@& RED!!!

So RED decided to let me go today. And let me go on the record by saying "screw them!". They let me go because they thought I was scared to get in there and start serving tables. First off, I am scared to take tables at a new restaraunt: They did a terrible job of training me! They think they can just throw me in there without knowing what all the drinks are and what comes with what on the menu. And they just throw me around and really don't know how to train worth shit. The training was basically just a waste of my time and their money.

So I guess I'm gonna have to work in Urban Outfitters and DSW. They called me back and are looking to interview. Which makes me happy because I love Urban Outfitters. And by the looks of DSW, I probably will fall in love with them too. Such a great selection of shoes. And plus I have the security job to fall on still. So all is not lost.

But still... %#@& RED!!!

RED is the word of the day.

So I got another job other than the security job. RED me as a full time server at their upscale mexican restaraunt. Which means I'll be makin total bank. And I like total bank.

Why am I suddenly such a hot product

So ever since I have gotten a job in security, everybody wants me to work for them. Such as: Red, Urban Outfitters, Karen's, and Chevy's. It's crazy go nuts! I don't understand why people want me to work for them the second I get a job. It's like I'm suddenly the most popular kid in school.

I have secured the area

Finally!!! I have found a job and right in the nick of time. I now don't have to feel like I'm aimlessly wandering the streets. And that doesn't feel to awsome. I am currently employed as a security guard in this grand city we call New York. I help secure numerous events, museums, parking lots and garages, hotels, etc. But in order to work as a security guard, I have to train a certain number of days. So it's not like they send me off to work in an area when I have no idea what I am doing. But I'm way pumped to finally know that I will be working. I have somewhat of a relatively legit purpose... but I don't know what that is.

Viva La Vendetta

So last night, my brothers Jeffrey, Stephen, and I went out last night to celebrate St. Patricks day. Of course, Jeffrey and I wore green to avoid getting pinched. But Stephen was lame and didn't wear green. And we weren't allowed to pinch him, which was pretty cheap of him. He can't call the shots on a international holiday. But we just went ahead and let it slide.

So first we went to an exhibit at the museum, which had mostly modern art. It had all sorts of styles from films, canvases, sculptures, and just about anything can things of. This was a pretty exciting exhibition and much better than I thought it was going to be. I was very impressed and taken in by the exhibits. There was one piece that I found to entrance me deeply. It was a light shining onto the floor in the shape of a large trapezoid. It would change from a sorta sunset color to a fuschia nighttime color. Then you would see a shadow of a telephone pole come into view. And throughout the piece, there would be shadows of birds flying across the sky. Ipods, glasses, trains, bicycle wheels, and other objects would float through the picture. Then people would be fall from the sky periodically throughout the piece. It definitely caught my attention.



We then went to V for Vendetta afterwards. Stephen went home instead of going with us to see the film. We got there about an hour early so we would be able to get seats. We got there a little bit too early if you ask me. But Amber and two other friends of Jeffs. The movie ended up being better than I thought it would. It didn't go overboard with scenes and was able to get you quite involved with the story. I enjoyed it very much.

That's about all that happened that lovely evening.

Do you ever

Do you ever have moments during the day when you're happy and feelin good? You're excited for the day and you're optomistic about the possibilities of what you might encounter. But then one second later you suddenly feel down and alone. Your good feelings vanish and you suddenly feel like today isn't such a great day after all.

I get that way a lot. And I fear that it won't ever stop happening to me. I feel as if things are crumbling down on me. And I feel as if I'll continue to feel like I'm in a rutt. I'm just swimming in a pool of uncertainty. And I'm tired of it being like this.

some luck today

so I spent today going to interviews, just like I do everyday. I went back to Staples to take a computerized test. It was a basic computerized interview, similar to any of the ones that you yourself have taken. I was later talking to the manager in her office about what they expect at a place like Staples. The fact that she talked to me and told me to come back on Monday at 3pm gives me hope. The hope of not being poor anymore.

I then took the train up to another interview uptown at a nice diner. They interviewed me and liked the idea that my available is so good. So they said to call tomorrow and talk to the manager. This is the best luck I've had since I've been here, even though I haven't lived here that long.

progress has been made

Finally I have made some progress in this little game called "Get a Job". I have moved up from First Class walk around and look for a job to Second Class go to restaraunts for interviews. That makes me feel good knowing that I hopefully will have money soon.

searcing is tough

So I'm having trouble getting a job in this city. It appears as though there's not much in NYC for a 20 yr. old white kid from the suburbs. First of all, If I want to work in a position such as retail, I have to have some experience. And I really don't have much experience in that field. The other thing is that certain places only have a certain race working there. And I'm a white kid. So I might not be able to fit into a lot of molds. So my only chance of getting any kind of work is if I work at a restaraunt. But other than that, there isn't much of anything for me. What is a boy to do...

this is the first

Yes. You may have heard that I have joined my brothers in NYC. And the rumor you have heard is true. I am now currently making my mark in NYC. I got here tues. and predict to get raped by the city in the next little while. But I'm excited to be here and I hope to make the best of it. If you see me on the street or at a concert, feel free to say hey.
