the interview went well i guess. i almost cried when i pulled up to the street its on.... if you are aware of atl at all, you will know what i mean when i say... its about 1 mile from Turner field. umm... yeah. so i freaked and called mom and almost canceled. it was a scary looking building and i wasn't sure i was even going to go in. but i did. and they were nice.. so who knows.

then i met up with megan for lunch, at this place i guess in buckhead. it was fun. although i haaate spending money on meals unless the meal is actually a drink, and the drink is actually from starbucks. lol, what can i say? it makes me happy.

oh, guess what? julie got into UGA! she found out today. yay!! we're gonna take her out to eat on thursday. tomorrow night i'm going to a photography thing and dinner with my friend katy, in decatur i think. i need to mention that she's the same friend that stood me up at Frontera last week, in which i sat at a booth and ordered cheese dip by myself because she forgot about our plans. hahaha i actually thought it was funny, but needless to say she's paying for my meal tomorrow. i don't hate that!

okay that's about it. you're all caught up now. and Ailya's father is doing better. thumbs UP!

yeah

i woke up at 11. my mom made me a sandwich and soup for lunch, and then i watched about 15 consecutive episodes of 30 rock online. from season 1. now i'm on season 2. so, pretty good day lol

interview in the morning. we'll see.

interview...

so i never talked to the ppl in LA for the interview... left a message they never called back. oh well. but then on friday i got a call for a job in atl i applied for, for a photo researcher position at a magazine. i was excited about it up until about 10 min ago when i found out is for an magazine that "Provides business and entertainment news, health, beauty, and lifestyle information for African Americans."........................

does that bother me? not at all. but do i think they might not hire me because of that? i wouldn't be surprised lol. i might not exactly fit in.. lol. and plus its only $8/hr. But it would be good experience i guess! hahahahaha this should be interesting.

well, other than that my weekend was good. volunteered at church yesterday with the kids, we made a bunch of things for this animal shelter in decatur for the animals and the workers. it was fun. and then i watched football.... we won't talk about that. and then today i skipped church bc i felt too tired to get up. so i ran instead. and then lounged around, didn't do much. mayda and sara came over for bday dinner(s) and we had a lot of fun and delicious food compliments of mi madre.

and that's the end of the weekend. exciting.

ps. on a serious note, pray for Ailya's dad and her family. thanks

my mind is mush

i can never make up my mind on what i want to do. but this has been on my brain for a while (i guess the past 4 months or so). I love art galleries. i want to sell my own stuff but there is so much competition. So, what if i worked in a gallery? or i was the director of a museum or something fantastic like that? There is a degree at the College of Charleston in SC that offers a MPA -masters of public admin- concentrating in Arts Management. It takes a year and a half. granted... its not cheap. 22k a year. there is a similar program at SCAD but its 8k more a year! i guess with the right scholarships neither one would be so bad. and if i went to SCAD i could shack up with people i know in a sweet place in atl... or stay at home..... wahh.wahhhh.

anyways, i figure that maybe this is what i should do with my love of art, and talking to people. i've been told i'm VERY charming... lol that's a joke just laugh even though you know its so true and you're just jealous..........................

haha.

woop woooop!

OMG. okay so i know the possibility of me getting this are -14% possible, but i just had a missed call earlier today and a vmail from a job i applied for, at an art studio, in HOLLYWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDD...... its an internship i guess. but what if i got it??!!!! i'm supposed to call tomorrow and "talk about my photography experience and when i'm moving out to LA".... lol okay i fibbed on my application and said i'm moving out to LA soon.. hhahaaa. you never know I COULD. i want to!!! that would be EFFING SWEET.

too exciting. just the thought of it. what if its the answer to my prayers? you know, this could be my break out of this town. before long i'll be writing books about how miserable i used to be, doing nothing but applying to jobs all day and wasting away on starbucks, the only time i get human contact during the day besides my mom. lol. okay thats a little embelished but it would sell. its 90% true. only sometimes do i meet up with friends. most of the time i do.... this.

anyways. i don't want to get my hopes up (believe me, i've learned my lesson on that. and not just with jobs. with guys, and life in general. me, pessimism??. lol) but i do like the feeling that someone actually called me. they liked my website perhaps???? maybe i should've put my blog site on my resume, that would have definitely sent the flocks of employers my way. out of pity. hahaha

yada yada yada

the sweet part of being single is... everyone has an idea of who they can set you up with. no one in particular, just "someone maybe they know" lol. i'm kidding i dont hate it, its funny. maybe one of them will work out..?

anyways i'm annoyed i can't go run in the morning. 40% chance of rain. wahh. i ate so badly today too. wooopsie!

i'm going to go buy some cute boots tomorrow i think. leatha. or suede. but under $60. think i can't do it? screw you, i'll make it happen. haha

also tomorrow is Sara's birthday! and jenna is leaving to go back to LA :( it was so good to see her. goodbyes were never my thing. sigh...

well i'm off to bed. tired. from all the laying around and eating i've done today. its hard to be me.
