I wish I had any sort of job. Not having money to spend is bad enough, but living with your annoying, nosy parents who think you're a complete failure is nothing short of torture :/

I just got promoted at my job -- right now I'm trying to build up my resume as much as possible, so the promotion was a welcome addition. I'm not concerned with having a job for the money; it's more the experience that so many employers now require after college, that I'm getting pretty concerned about my job prospects when I do graduate without having a solid background related to my career goals. I don’t mind living off rice for the time being. XD

However, my main goal at the moment though should be to get my GPA as high as possible…

Also does anyone know what happened to the theme PokeGeneric? It not being there makes me sad.

I'm too lazy to get a job even though I'd love to (or I don't, I don't even know what I find haha) Uhh yeah as of now I'm too busy with school to have one anyway.

Congrats. I tried to work while I was in school and it was just too much for me and my grades suffered for it. I don't know how people manage it.

I worked very briefly while I was still in high school. Only had an hour to eat something, shower and get into my uniform, and basically had no time to rest up.

And the result, I went in dead tired every time, I finally had to pull the plug on it, but unfortunately, I haven't been back working since...

I work til 9pm every Friday and Saturday night Team Fail, so I know how you feel. I've done that pretty much every week for the last three years. Though I don't have school and I only work Tuesday/Wednesday during the week (unless I'm covering for someone else) so I still have like 3 days a week to myself lol

I know, right? I've spent a year looking for a job in the tiny hick town where I live, and it's all been a wasted effort :/

I actually work at the university so it works out well for me — I finish class, then go straight to work for a few hours. You're only allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours/week so it's not too demanding. Last semester I worked until midnight two days a week and then until 10pm on a Sunday.

I'd like to work at the university too. There are actually several things I could do there~ but later. For now, I want to pass all my courses with higher grades until I think about money :x

Bah, I have to agree with you two. ;__; And my town isn't even THAT small! The only reason I have a job at all right now is that my grandmother's fiance needs help with his job, and when that ends I am screwed again. ;__;

I'm soooooooooo unbelievably glad that I have a secured job. I have no idea HOW I got the job, but I'm definitely not complaining. So many of my friends have graduated from uni with nothing and I feel really bad for them. It really sucks, at the moment.

I've only ever had one job and that was a six-month internship at a tax firm during my senior year in high school. Going to have to find work at K-Mart of another store as a cashier during the summer; I really want money ):

The job I do sounds more impressive when I tell people than what I actually do, so it doesn't effect my studies. In fact, I did better last semester than I had prior. :P

The only thing that came close to a job that I did was just job experience and we have to do that for school etc haha. I did meet one of my two best friends there so I guess it wasn't all that bad.

The only jobs I had were through the college itself... one as an office worker, one as a resident assistant in on-campus housing (oh, the bizarre things you'll see as an RA) and an instructor for a freshman math class.

The pay sucked, but it kept me fed, at least.

The first snow always sucks though. To powdery, can't do much with it.

I think my town is going to get snow sometime next week, but I missed most of the weather report so I'm not sure.

I'm kinda hoping for a a sudden and unexplained foot and a half of snow, like my place had 6 years ago. The forcast said 2 inches, 2 1/2 at most. It started snowing around 2 pm that day and continued on until 10 or 11 am the next day. I was up to my knees in snow. And it... was... AWESOME!

You know how much snow I really want though? Enough to do something like this.

I suppose that is one way to keep your drinks cool.

But pfft, I live in Australia. Firstly, it is summer here, and secondly it barely snows too in this country bar in the mountains (and compared to other countries they barely qualify as mountains) and Tasmania (a southern large island of Australia) apparently.
