Trying to think positively...

| | Comments (2)
To those who requested makeup: My giveaway is over! I've already contacted everyone as of 11/04, so if you haven't heard back then I'm sorry D: I said that I'd only be giving freebies to one international blog reader/friend, but I'm actually sending 4 overseas packages... I'm so broke now. Hope you girls like your goodies though!

Anyhow, my life kinda sucks at the moment, for the following reasons:
  1. I am still full-time unemployed.
  2. I lost my best friend.
  3. I spend too much money.
  4. Methinks I'm a crappy employee.
  5. My grades suck.
  6. I've put on weight.
I like to call it the circle of life [of Joan], or circle of Joan for short. I've been trying hard (but obviously, not hard enough) to find a job, but to no avail. Since I'm so fugtastically stressed out and uberly overwhelmed, I take it out on my best friend. Best friend can't handle it so he ditches me. No best friend? It's okay, shopping is always a nice alternative. Of course, until I realize my financial situation is analogous to that of a homeless person.

I try to make up for the money spent by taking on more shifts. More shifts leads to less time for other things; ultimately, less sleep for me. Less sleep is synonymous with poor performance in both work and school. I try to make myself feel better by filling my seemingly unsatiable appetite, but with that comes an extra inch or two to my waist. How my eating habits relates to my inability to find a full-time job, I don't know... I guess it isn't a circle after all, maybe just a linear path. Whatever. But the point is, my life sucks, end of story.

Okay well, with the negativity out of the way, here are some things I should be excited about!

1. Vancouver Olympics!
I booked my flight last week, and I'll be there from Feb 17-21, 2010. The HBC contest isn't over yet, but I've made up my mind. I want to go so I'm gonna go. I'm gonna be getting event tickets on Saturday - hopefully I get to see figure skating and short track! Despite the fact that I've booked already, please continue voting for me! I'm a poor student so it would be ubertastic if it was a free trip :D

Thumbnail image for JYP_AUDITION.jpg2. Being a JYP scout!
A friend of mine asked me to do some PR work for JYP! Next week, I'm gonna be scouting with JYP reps during their audition period in Toronto. Definitely a fun opportunity to have a firsthand account of how the Korean entertainment industry works :)

3. Lady Gaga concert!
November 28th at the Air Canada Centre, so excited! I love concerts. Hopefully this will lift my mood :D

4. Try out some acting!
Oscar, who's a film production major, is looking to make his first feature length film to build his portfolio and to enter into film festivals. I'll be acting in it, oh so exciting :D We'll be filming during the Christmas break, so I probably won't be able to do my New York trip then... But it'll definitely be worth it.

5. A top secret art project
Since it's top secret, I've sworn on my female body parts that I wouldn't divulge it to anyone just yet. Friends and family do not count. So you'll have to wait! ;D

 Anyway, here are some random pics taken from my mobile. My hair looks long in the photos, but I want it grow even longer. Like Rapunzel :D Not really but..

I'm trying to think as positively as I can... Hopefully to mask all the crap that's been going on, but it's hard. Anyway, here are some random pics taken from my mobile. My hair looks long in the photos, but I want it grow even longer. Like Rapunzel :D Not really but...

hey joanster. I had this bookmarked because I was going to comment, and then my november turned into hell. This week will still be hell, but I've given up on stressing because all it does is...nothing. No I have not forgotten to meet you, but I'm bettin your month was rather busy anyway.

1.at least you have the computer lab thing, rather than being umemployed period :( I've been eyeing a job at the library for a year and they almost NEVER hire.

2.I did too, a while back. Not going to ask you about specifics (not needed.), but needless to say I felt like I was missing a part of myself.

3.I do not :) I am a boy so I don't really buy clothes or anything.

4.I think you're a great employee, know when to put hockey games in front of work HEE HEE

5.all of us.

6.I am immune to eating too much, as seen by the tweets I make.

Despite all the problems, you still seem like you're living a dream~

add oil add oil only 1 week left of classes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
