So to start with. I don't have a job... what a surprise a blogger who is unemployed! well, i left the last place i was working due to... political sanctions... in all fairness it was all a bit much to be honest, i don't have a high opinion on those who feed off the helpless! needless to say, i left before anything bad happened. it was hard, the friends i had made over the 2 years i was there were of the best kind i have ever made, and even though we all say we will stay in touch... we all know its hard to do so!
so anyway. its been a couple of months now and still no luck in the job finding area so last week I decided to go after something a bit more then just a desk jockey (no offence to those who are, i don't mean it as a negative mainly just... i find it hard to do it, i think those who do it have a quality that i just don't posses). therefore, i am now working at gaining an apprenticeship as a Youth worker. i had my own issues as a kid (as we all did) and i never realised how easy it could be to give back! one year apprenticeship and bam! i will be able to start working as a real Youth worker.
so anyway, now you understand my career aspirations. we can move on!
this morning was a frustrating one! after looking everywhere for my keys after realising i couldn't pinpoint there location i remember that my girlfriend, who for the blogs purpose will be called "LET", had put them in her handbag because i couldn't be bothered lugging them around in my pocket... lazy and strange i know. its not something i do that often. so i took mums van and went on my way, riding in style with only radio at my disposal as i had ruined her CD player... apparently. so i got to the chemist to pick up my next batch of meds (nothing serious, just a messed up stomach) and i went to the counter and put down the prescription and as always they asked "have you been here before" and as always i said yes. i stood back and pretended to walk look at the stuff on the walls while I waited for my pills. then a older women walked in and gave me an odd look. nearly appalled... i was so confused. i stood back and realised i was looking at the "WOMEN'S HEALTH" section with an array of tampons and pads and all other strange wondrous things to help any girl keep 'fresh'. i couldn't help but laugh to myself which brought the attention of the rest of the shoppers in there. and as you will soon realise my new readers, i will take anything to the next level. so i picked up a packet of LIBRA Pads and said the old lady "whats your opinion, these cost half as much as adult nappies (diapers for you yanks) and you get twice as many!"
the ladies jaw hit the ground as she just looked at my stupid grin and then stormed to the front of the counter and as my name got called out i walked up and said to the chemist assistant loud enough for the old lady to hear "don't worry, iv been using the toilet for 3 months now and only 3 accidents since!" the lady shook her head so hard i thought she was going to take off!
I have to wonder, why would she be so concerned with me looking at female needs... other than the massive half naked women they used for advertisement? i don't understand it sometimes. i could have been buying it for LET or my sister?? or daughter for that matter (I'm not a father)... i think that there is a strange wave recently of older generations so quick to be ready to get narky towards the youth. now don't get me wrong, the new wave of '.com Generations" are a great let down and I'm sure ill write about that in the upcoming weeks! but i mean SERIOUSLY! what do you think?
so the lesson i have learnt on my 8598th day on this planet; - don't let old people get you down! your only young once... and they are probably jealous!"
hopefully this blog isnt too boring. i will write more on reviews and opinions of those in the news, i just wanted to get the first one out there so you can all see who i am and how i write and so on.
anyway.
stay tuned!!
