Nov. 17th, 2010 03:12 pmSo, it's been forever since I posted because, you know, not a lot's been going on. Mostly a lot of skyping and TV.
The Job Search: Still stagnant, depressing, disheartening and terrible. I know that a huge part of this is the fact that I have no idea what I want to do, and therefore can't pinpoint my focus, but I'm not even getting secretarial jobs that require a max of a high school diploma. WTF.
The Plan: I usually don't like to talk about things I'm considering doing, because I hate the idea of them not coming true and people knowing that I failed, but I'm applying to teach in France for 7-9 months starting next school year. My BFF is currently over there with the same program and is having a great time, and I wouldn't be sent until just after my other BFF's wedding, so we're good! We'll see how that goes.
The Obsession: So, like, six years ago,
miss_rina introduced me to Lush, and when I finally got myself in a store about four years ago in Canada, I was hooked. Now we have one at my local mall, and oh my God. I love their stuff so much. How much, do you ask? Well, I've already been there twice this week, and more times than I care to admit the past two months. I love every single thing I've tried there. I could really wax poetic about all the wonderful things Lush products have done for my skin and hair, but I will stop with this: I love Lush so much, that my mother has offered to pay me to do chores in Lush items. Mind you, I have never been paid for doing chores in my life, nor did I ask or expect payment for doing things around the house, but my mother has offered to pay me in Lush items like it's Trident layers or something. What's more, I am totally going to take her up on this offer, because the idea of one Lush item a week that I don't have to pay for makes me ridiculously giddy.
So, that's me. How have you all been doing?

Date: 2010-11-18 05:09 am (UTC)My classmates in university all sucked with artsy stuff, and even though I only knew how to use photoshop, they paid me with a grande mocha frap from Starbucks just so I'll make it for them (everybody sort of knew that I have this strange obsession with the whipped cream from starbucks, lol). They would sometimes ask the Fine Arts peeps, but they're kinda expensive (one large box of pizza, yo)
France sounds awesome. Try it, try it!
