WTF stands for ...where's the fun?

SO long time no update, I can't say that life has been crazy busy but it's been good. In exchange for the lack of updates, I am providing any readers I may have with the charming photo above! Available exclusively on this blog! (Why yes, that IS me in a Transformer's mask in the middle of Toys R Us!)

I've been working my butt off for the last few weeks at Job number whatever (lol I forgot but it's ok cus there's only one job now which will henceforth be known as JOB) and I am tired!

So let's start with the big news...dun Dun DUN! I passed all three of my CSET exams at once on the first try!!! YAY! I went the the exam location filled with apprehension and like a hundred pencils in my purse. I even brought a sandwich! lol So I'm sitting outside the building feeling stupid and WAY behind because I should have taken these tests like a year ago and this was my last chance. Everyone had been telling me how difficult they were and I'm sitting there my thoughts vacillating between, "Oh crap! C'mon you can do it! Shoot shoot SHOOT! Hmmmm, let's see do I REALLY want to be a teacher? I mean really?" Sounds more negative than positive right? Anyway the stupid test takers have to go and make me even more neurotic by confiscating my freaking phone! Now I know how cliche it is to be so attached to your cell but did they really have to take away the only tool of encouragement I had left?!!! AKA "Hi mom I'm about to take my test..." (mom says) "Oh you'll do great honey!" I really needed that!!! (Jeez sometimes I feel like my posts need illustrations! lol ) Needless to say I got through it and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but it wasn't as easy...does that make sense? I guess it doesn't matter because I PASSED!!! Oh and when I went to pick up my phone they told me it had been going off like crazy! I thought I turned it off...but that's what they get for taking it away from me in the first place! XD


BTW I underwent a major transformation! From blonde to brunette (my hair's natural state)

A Bittersweet Day Off

So I was up till bout 5 this morning and it was cool cus I didn't work till 1. Well thats still only 5 hours sleep but it's cool. So I wake up at 10 and get up, get some cereal, eat breakfast, watch a lil tv and then get in the shower (rockin' out to Kelly Clarkson! Heck yes!), get out, throw on clothes, blow dry my hair, put on my makeup and begin to straighten my hair. If you know me at all, or see me on a regular basis, you will know that the hair straightener and I have not bonded in the way of other girls and their hair machines. My hair is so thick (albeit short) that it takes FOREVER! So usually I allow my natural curls to take over and evolve into frizz. Not the best but it's convienent lol. I LOVE the way my hair looks straight and it's a mega confidence booster. So since God decided to reinform me of my gender today, I thought "Well I'm working today and it's gonna be a particularly long shift and I could use the hair to balance the out of whack emotional junk so...what the heck! :)" Well, I step away for a second, and return to a voice mail from my store. "Hi, this is ____ , we're cancelling your shift today, see you next time. Enjoy your day off!" Very polite and sweet. But at this moment two things are running through my mind. 1: YAY!!! no work!!! and 2: CRAP! that's 6 HOURS OF PAY LOST! so anyway I'm enjoying not working today but I could've used the $$. So, I ended up straightening my hair anyway and I'm just relaxing and enjoying it all by myself lol OOH! and I'm going swing dancing tonight!!! YAY!
