I Wasn't Ready · 5:22am Jun 13th, 2015
I'm so sorry... I gave in and splurged on games to keep me busy for the next... forever. Including but not limited to: Gauntlet, Chip's Challenge, and CS;GO because why the hell not.
Sooooooo.... yeah... I may be... gaming... for a while... instead of writing.
Nah, I wouldn't leave you guys hanging. But that is besides the point, for I have news!... well, not really, just a few updates.
Specifically, I had a job interview today. If everything goes well, I'll have a job in about a week. Otherwise... well, more applications. Seriously hoping I get a call for a night time stocking position at walmart. That would be nothing short of amazing. Get some of them cash-moneys and not have to deal with stupid customers...
In other news, I am a terrible CS;GO player (yeah... it's gonna take me a while to get into that game. Very different from most other FPS's I play). I am 3K words into the next chapter of Break of Dawn. Other projects? Yeah... virtually no work has been done. What can i say? I love my vampire fic. I'm super excited to get reactions ont he scene I just wrote those; I had a blast. it's a hard thing to write properly, with everything the characters are going through, but I think I did decently well on it. We'll see what my pre-reader and editor has to say about it when it's done.
Aside from that... So far my team has won both of our TF2 matches (more like crushed both of out matches... one team was short two players and forfeited after one round, the other put up a good fight but we still won all 5 rounds in a row). Monday we're going up against a team with some more experienced players, so here's hoping we can keep this streak going.
As a side note because someone asked a little while ago, if you'd like to join me in my gaming, send me a PM and I'll give you my steam info.
I suppose I should talk a bit about my other stories now... basically, I'm still focusing on The Break of Dawn, and my pace has not slowed down in over a month. So... well, expect regular updates on that but I can't promise anything else, especially if I start working full time like I want to.
Also I'm gonna fiddle around with the blog tags thing. Once I figure them out, I'll start using them to filter my personal/update/opinion blogs instead of putting a tag in the title. (Until I figure them out, I will continue to do so; don't worry) so hopefully it'll be pretty easy for people to simply filter out the blogs they don't want to read. Once I figure these things out I'll post a full list of tags I use on my main page for future reference.
That is all for now, dear people. I have a new deagle skin with my name on it.
Until next time,

I sure hope you can handle it. Let's just say that Walmart outlets expect too much out of their workers at times, and it can be hard. I speak from experience, as I worked for a few months as overnight stock a couple of years ago. Let's just say I quit before they could let me go, and it left a very bad taste in my mouth. Almost to the point where I didn't want to shop there any more. Here's hoping you get fortunate.

I've heard a lot of bad things about Walmart (mostly from people in the US), but I have a friend who worked at the same one I'm applying to and they say it was pretty good, as far as retail goes anyway. I'll take my chances, and honestly at this point I think I can put up with it in the name of getting a new computer by the end of summer.

I'm only speaking from my personal experience, as I have a couple of family members that still works there. It likely had more to do with the fact that I rather suck at manual labor tasks that need to be completed in a timely fashion. I'm easily distracted, and I couldn't keep up. Anyway, I was fixing to quit, so it was less of a deal then it turned out to be. I was temp for over the holiday anyway. What really sucks is that there were others that did less than me (while breaking rules at the same time) that were full-time. If I had pulled the discrimination card, I could have gotten back at them, but meh.
BTW, that's one of my favorite quotes, and is something I really do believe.
