Well, today was the last day of my Oral Presentation class. My presentation went relatively well. At least it is over. I'm really wiped out. I got about 4 hours sleep last night and was working on the project all day today. As soon as The Apprentice is over, I'm off to bed.
It was really weird realizing that I am probably never going to sit in a classroom there again. I've been going there since June 2002 and it had become my second home. Many of the staff there are like family. I got a little
verklempt. I mean, I'd like to take some multimedia classes and such, but the chances of me having the money to go are slim (unless I win the lottery or suddenly land some really high-paying gigs). I'll probably be paying off student loans forever. Who knows? I might be able to teach myself or have my interests go in a different direction once I get out in the field. We'll see. I need to spend the weekend finishing up my final web project and than I'm totally done with my degree.
I tried pressing my teacher for info on the status of my previous job interview. She said she can't say whether I'm hired or not since it is not her decisison. Apparantly, the company is waiting for the city to approve something before they can be in the position to hire. Stupid city of Denver is dragging their feet. They definitely liked me, though. So, keep your fingers crossed and say prayers if you're into that. I need all the help I can get because
I want this job! Thanks!
Now that I'm almost done with school, I'm going to push myself to do some web design on the side for extra income. I had planned on staying at the pizza place for up to a year as a 2nd job to get some of my bills paid off, but I just can't do it. There are so many things going on there that blow my mind. There is so much drama and crap. If only those people would spend one tenth of the energy providing good customer service and building sales as they did with all their little melodramas, I'd be rich. I need a question answered though: Why do women who seem to hate men with every fiber of their being have boyfriends and/or get married? I am so sick of male-bashing at work. Most of these women are no picnics, either. They keep trying to get me to say disparaging things about men, too, but I won't. Even if I had terrible feelings and thoughts about Marcus, I sure wouldn't air them at work. I know some people really hate Dr. Laura, but she's right about one thing. If you want love and respect from your man, show him the same. Seems relatively simple, doesn't it?
OK, show's over. Off to bed.

I'm just sitting here doing a little blog surfing and while at
Bitchypoo I folowed a link Robyn had in her sidebar to
Smart & Sassy. I've wondered what that was for a while, but never bothered to click. Anyway, it's a site where she and two other women have an online advice column. I'm amazed by some of the problems that people write to them with. Of course, I'm sometimes amazed by the people that call
Dr. Laura, too.
BTW, I've added a field to put the music I'm currently listening to or the television show I'm watching. Like the little iPod graphic I made?
Israel Kamakawiwo’ole—Somewhere Over the Rainbow

I just heard on
9news that New Jersey's
SPCA pressured Kraft Foods to
stop producing a line of gummi candies called
Road Kill. The candies are in the shapes of snakes, chickens and squirrels with a tire track down the middle. I personally think that the candies are a great idea. Geez people, get a sense of humor, already. One article I read said something about sending the wrong message to kids about how to treat animals.
They're not really animals!!! It's candy!
