So, back in June, having 'celebrated' 2 years of working (as of May 23) at my job (a store, not saying the name of the 'company'...), I lost my job for some stupid as sh*t reason and needless to say it made me angry with them. I've had a few people tell me that they think I lost my job because there was someone else they wanted for the position (I had finally been promoted to a key holder/management). And, given the situation and how it was handled, I have to say I might agree with that.

And, as it get's closer for time for classes at college to restart (registration is first), I have to stop and think about things related to that, that I really don't want to discuss here...

Then, back in October of last year, towards the end of the month, I lost my father. We had been hoping that he would recover, but we weren't completely in the dark about what could happen. He just seemed to get worse and worse. Now he's not hurting anymore, and while I hate how this happened, I also thank the Lord that he granted him peace and stopped his pain. It's almost been a year since then, and I don't know what will happen when the day comes...

I'm sorry to just use this to rant at all of you who read this, but I felt like putting this out there...I feel like I need to stop and think about what I want to do with my life and where I see myself going because, as I am now, it may not be a good road I'm on in terms of stability and a good future...

Sorry again for the rant.

I was at school the yesterday (Tuesdays and Thursdays are my busy days for school)...college, you know? And, well...don't really know how it happened but I'm guessing I missed a step on the stairs because I fell. Not down them, but...it was kind of like I 'fell down'...like straight down. But on the way down, I managed to hurt my arm on the railing beside me (on the right side, where I was walking). That gave me a HUGE bruise on the underside of one arm. Ow...

 

Then, after I finished with another 'class' (which is not really a class...), I headed over to another set of stairs (whoever made these was stupid...but that's just my opinion). I had been talking to my mom, and I told her I was about to go down another set of stairs and that I didn't want to fall again. She turned that into "you're just like your mom, needing to hold on to something." I responded that I needed her to get off the phone so I could have a free hand (the other was holding my backpack up on one shoulder (since it hurt to put it on 'the correct way' on the other arm...(bruised one) and two folders). She did hang up and I put the phone away and began to head down the stairs. Didn't get far when I fell...AGAIN. 2 times in one day on stairs...I think that's a record for me...

 

So, now I have bruises on my right arm and my left leg (not counting a bruise I got from work on my left arm, but that's a little one)...and I'm sore/hurting...yay. On another note, I have to go to work today (all the way until the store I work at closes...). I'm a cashier at a store (among other things). Meaning I check people out at the register, I put stuff up, go get the buggies (?), etc. It also means I bring EVERYTHING in at night, before closing (if that's when my shift is...which it normally is these days...)...and usually by myself...

 

Well, I better go get ready...

Ciao~ See you later!

So, I haven't been on dA in a while...it's been because of a few things.

One: I got me a job...so yeah, that's really important. Need to work hard at that. I like the fact that I'm earning the money~ Just wish I had a chair or something...

Two: Home issues. I'm acting as a sort-of-caretaker/watcher for my dad. I won't go into the details (because I don't want to), but he needs to be watched so he doesn't hurt himself, let the dog(s) outside (because we have a very stupid dog who will cause trouble if let out the front door (even accidentally), etc. Basically, it's sometimes like taking care of a 'grown child' or a child in an adult's body.

Three: I just haven't felt like getting on dA in my free time. I've caught up on my sleep (after working...), done one of the two things above, etc. I haven't even written anything (stories...fanfics...whatever). I mean, I have a thing on my phone where I can 'write' things down (usually my ideas and the like), but that's it...So, one day, I want to get back into my 'writing mood' or whatever and improve my writing.

So, yeah...not that I'm avoiding the site. I've just got a ton of other things I have to take care of in REAL LIFE. I'll stop by occasionally (one day, I want to keep my promise to catch up on my comments)...but for now...I don't know...

This ain't the end of me! :3

I'm back...after being gone for so long. But yay.

Now, as I'm sure some of you, if not all of you, have noticed...I'm not an artist...well, in the drawing (etc.) field. I can write stories, and can take pictures, but...yeah. Anyway, while I was gone from deviantart, I had an idea for an original story. And while I would love to have art for it (or one day have it in manga format)...yeah, I can't do the art.

I have a title for it, some background and names, etc. So one day I might post the complete story...ok, the first chapter, on here and see how that goes.

In other news...I went to Israel during my Spring Break/Easter. It was pretty fun.

Still need a job...yup.

And...that's it. Woot!
