So What's New?

My soulmate said I needed to blog.
And it's true. I knew that I was being lazy but just ignored my 'responsibility' to blog.
Meh.
But kinda a big thing happened. Well, a big thing for sure.
I finally quite my job at Target. Fucking hatted it there. I'm sad to go because I'm going to miss (most) of my coworkers, but, like I told my "boss," I don't want to work in an environment that makes me unhappy. And everyday I think "What will go wrong today?"
She just looked at me like "OH. Well, I didn't expect this." She tried to make excuses but I shot her down, telling her that the problem was with the upper management, and not you 'little world' as she put it.
Now I know why they never cared, they saw us in our own 'little world' in our Starbucks kiosk.
But whatever. I'm happy to leave overall. I don't have a job set up now, but a couple options are presented. For now, I just want to go to FanimeCon and be happy for awhile. I'm so stressed with so much in my life, I need time to just step back and figure it all out. Going from not having a real job to full time work really did me in.

Fanime is the best thing that happens for all of us. It makes us all feel like we really are 15 again, but with no parents. We get to 'run around' unattended, following our own rules for 3 1/2 days. It's magical. I feel like me again. Stupidly, none of us have booked a hotel room, but I think we will manage. My magical future predicting skills say so. I already bought my ticket, which means that I'll probably have to stand in a long ass annoying line, but have a permanent badge and not just a paper one.
I think I will wear only lolita to Fanime. Last year I was too much of a girl and brought too much to wear, but this year I think I'll bring my dresses and then maybe one change of clothes because I don't want to get too hot.
And I found my camera charger (more like whomever 'borrowed' it returned it. It was just sitting on my desk the other day. Came from NOWHERE.).

Forever 21 might be hiring at the end of May so when I get back from Fanime, I'm going to turn in an application. But by then I will have purple in my hair so I'm going to have to buy a wig...I think I'll just keep it a secret because I really don't like that I can't have colors in my hair. It's important to me to express myself. Having wild hair, piercings and hopefully my wing tattoos all help me paint my canvas. I think I'll try seeing if Hot Topic is hiring, even though I haven't shopped there since I was 16. But I still love lots of their accessories.

But yeah, I bought purple dye today. Not my normal brand because the website is STILL OUT OF IT. It's been at least a month. I'm really pissed. But this other brand I've used before and it didn't seem bad so I'm giving it a shot. It's cheater and I got it at Sally's instead of ordering online. Tomorrow, I'm going to finally do my roots and then add the purple for the last day of work. I'm being rebelious because they started to get cranky about my blondish/black hair. Our "boss" was asking Shanter (she left too! I miss her already. :c I was looking through old pictures and saw the pumpkin carving ones. But that's when Stella almost...) if my hair was acceptable.
Shanta (being a *bux employee for 4 years total): "Well, all I know is that it has to be natural colors to someone."
'Boss': "Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh. But it's two different colors!"

Fuck you. You're a stupid bitch. I'm a TARGET EMPLOYEE. So therefor, the I can do WHAT I WANT. I was told so when I was hired. And I don't care if I'm in the *bux kiosk being told to look 'Starbucks Brand.' If you want us to follow *bux rules, then make us *bux employees. Bitch. So my purple hair on my last day is me saying "GO FUCK YOURSELF."
And I've been wearing just a hairnet like a lunch lady lately because it was so freakin' hot during frappy crappy hour, and the hat kept falling in my eyes. Two leaders that KNOW NOTHING ABOUT OUR KIOSK came over and asked "Shouldn't you be wearing a hat?!"
"No. It's a hat or hairnet."
"Well, I think it's suppose to be both."
"No, we were told either or."
"Well, let me go check with Waldo."
I just gave a puzzled expression. WALDO? He doesn't know anything about our department! All he does is sign the cleaning log every night! SHUT UP AND GO DEAL WITH YOUR DEPARTMENT. FUCKERS.

On a happier note, I started reading The Hunger Games and fell in love. I hate that there is so much hype about it, and I haven't seem the movie yet but don't really like who they picked for Katniss yet. And I think Katniss is being annoying about Peeta. I think she loves him, but is just being a stupid girl.
I broke my record and read the book in 2-3 days. Jake gave me his old, crappy eReader but I'm happy with it. I'm now on the second book.

Ok, I think that's everything 'important.'

Oh Target Shoppers...

Just talked to a guy in line about smoking and drinking. He was upset that Target's policy is to swipe an ID or if you don't want to do that, you put in their birthdate and a team lead approves it.

"What a stupid system," he said
"Well at least it keeps underage kids from buying alcohol," I chime in.

Than he goes on to talk about how if kids want things, they will find a way. He grew up in Europe and smoked his first cigarette at 9 that he stole from his father's shop and started to drink at 12. I didn't say anything, but am slightly appalled. Though he looks 50 or 60 so that was a different era not to mention continent (hence only slightly appalled).
And then he asks the age for drinking here (in America).

"It's 18, right?"
"Nope. 21 to drink. 18 is for smoking and lotto cards. 21 for drinking and purchasing alcohol and gambling in Vegas," I say with a smile because I do not agree with him.

I being only 20 myself, think the drinking at 21 is a good law because we are still young and uneducated about life when we are 18 (well, most of us). I never have drank much at all and have yet to become drunk.

Anyway, I got the feeling he was an alcoholic because why else would you be buying at 12 of Corona at 10:30 at night? If it were a party, I feel he would have gotten more or hard liqueur. Not to mention his scraggly appearance and grumpy personality did not look party ready.

Or maybe he's just European.

6 am Start

Was woken up at 6 by Target because the opener called out. I asked Stella if I should say I can come in early and she said yes.
So now I'm exhausted.
Working on a day that there is a call out is so difficult. It's a battle. The LOD's hardly give two shits, let alone one, so you're left trying to float on your own. Thankfully, today was better than some.
I got off at 3:30 and feel pretty tired. Going to try and take a nap and then play some WoW with Jakeums. :)

Jake's dad had gotten Panda earlier and I've been craving it so I lucked out with that one. Jake is mowing the lawn but his dad is out there too so it would be weird for me to just sit out there and watch him. I love watching him work. ;) Especially since it's warm out and he will probably end up taking off his shirt.
<3 <3 <3 <3 :-)))))))))))))

Stella misses my soulmate, too. <3
