Have you ever had a day where all you encounter are frustrating situations one following another? Well even now, working with my blog template I'm feeling frustrated. Arghhhhh! It's times like these that I enjoy a good cry or at least screaming into my pillow. Okay, so rewind.
Woke up to the smoke detector going off in my room. Really? Since I need to hear incessant high pitched toe curling beeps while I'm trying to make the most of the last few minutes in my covers. Fun fact, my comforter is my most prized possession. You think I'm kidding don't you? I would gladly trade anything for my comforter. Don't get any ideas mister.
Ate breakfast listening to my mother lamenting about the frustrations of having an unmotivated teenage son. Literally the rant goes on for another hour before I can actually get to what I need to do...change the battery on my smoke detector!
Called the DMV to ask if I need a new physical exam for my learner's permit which has...you guess it! Expired again. Wow, you sigh, I know. Hell I probably know it better than you! The hilarity is I literally got my learner's permit the day I turned 16 and have renewed it every year since. I'm 22 this year. Clearly driving is one of the most important priorities in my life.
Brother gets home from high school at 3:15PM. Immediately I set to make sure he gets his shit done and doesn't pull an all nighter. Don't even get me started on him. I know he's intelligent. I know he's capable. He just doesn't give a shit. What's even worse is when I'm supervising him and he tells me he can get his homework done in 2 hours or less if he really wanted to. Too bad he doesn't. This is the most important year of his academic career and homeboy is still checking his facebook newsfeed. Damn you Mark Zuckerberg!
I literally had to restart my computer 5 times during my DVD workout today. I was fuming about my brother and paused to take off a layer of clothing when I shocked my touchpad. Damn you Apple for your aluminum 2008 MacBook Pros. Some of us conduct electricity like it's our job!
The two bright spots of my day were watchiing the first episode of a (new to me) Tawianese drama called Miss Rose. Normally I'm not such a fan of Taiwanese shows since I find them overly cutesy and annoying but this one is tolerable. Bonus points that my Mom likes it. Yay for free Mother and daughter activities! Second star of the day goes to my earning potential. For my first job I am officially aiming for $70,000. Not too bad huh. Well, it's no 150-200,000, but for an average joe like me it's a good starting place.
The big doozy for me was realizing how incredibly boring my future is going to be. I finally understand why people who work want to go to school. I guess school is relatively less boring. I also get why people want to do extreme sports. I need the stimulation. Honestly how exciting can financial analysis possibly be? I finally understand the functions of meetings. It's not about productivity but about socializing. Instead of getting things done rather think about it in terms of recess. I guess we all need some way to preserve our sanity. Yay future!
The job hunt continues. Wish me luck!
