Falling into

You don't really hear much about people just falling into jobs anymore. Everyone has to have 100 years expernice a degree and know all the right people and be in the right places at the right time. I don't know any of the right people, the place and time just need to be named and I will be there, not to meantion no degree and just about 2.5 years paid computer experince. It sucks I tell you I need new work. Everyone I know whos has gotten a new job already didn't have to try so hard.

I might go wash my car later. It's dirty and spoty cause I guess it rained recently. Perhaps last night or while i was trapped indoors at work.

Got confronted by some guy after i snapped a pic of a BMW 735 I that was covered in AutoHaus stickers and such. The guy was asking what the picture was about. Told him the car I like bmws and pointed to my shirt with the roundel on it. The guy then said in a joking fassion he normaly charges to have his picture taken.

I'm getting sick of some of the political crap going on, the media, and shit.. I'm watching some stuff on internet TV about how corupt corprate media is and how they spin stuff. Old news to me but this documentry type thiing about the whole ordeal coving the riots/protest in Portland the Universty of Porland when GW visted Portland. I feel its all BS from the news and this reactionary response to the whole thing is bull shit. thats all for now....

update 8:25pm: My speakeasy email just told me someplace wants to schedule a phone interview with me for an entry level system support tech.

i found a loophole in life. as long as im in school im elegible for medical cover on my dads retirement plan. (thus saving me a minimum of $500 a month on medicine alone). and i can defer my student loans.

ill be "hiding" out for a while.

wheres my fafsa? i want money.

I think you are old enough that you can qulify for financial aide on your own.

are you talking to me? i know i can get aide on my own. ide have to claim independance. which means my dad would get tax cuts. essentially it would cost him a couplke grand. but i might do it anyway, uz i gotta cover my own ass.

Nope. I gotta be 25 or something to get it on my own.

Tiffany wasn't able to get any aide until the term she turne 25 because her dad makes so much.

see, but isnt that because your claimed as a dependant vy your parents? they get huge tax benefits for having you under thier name. but if you claim independance (just prove you financially support yoursel;f) then everything goes through you and not your parents. but i bet the laws are a bit differant in california.

PS- does anyone know if i get the same amount of money in GRANTS (not loans) if attending a community college that cost $25 a unit as opposed to DeVry Uni where the cost was like $1000 a unit?
