Feelings are for kids, silly Alex!
I see most of our blogs have now almost stopped, so I want to write one. This is actually a depressing one, until the end.
A couple of days ago, I went to my Parent's house to procure the rest of my tuition. I don't know what actually happened, but it ended up like I thought it would. I was upset, they called me immature, I felt like something was my fault, I left upset, and now Sheena never wants to see them again. Basically, they get upset at me for getting upset. Almost like the Trix Rabbit gets deprived of those delicious Trix. He's the fucking Trix Rabbit, the fucking kids should have to ask him for it. Well, I'm 21 and yes I still have feelings. They get hurt and I can't help that. I could choose not to show it when my feelings get hurt, but that's just covering up what makes me, me. Oh well, they're paying for school, at least the tuition part. This is the last time though. I guess I'll have to break down and get a student loan for the next few years. I'm not going to like it, but I guess it will help.
Next piece of bad news. I'm not getting the store. It doesn't look like I'm getting a store for a long time, or at all. They interviewed me, took me out to dinner, almost gave me the job, then I said that I had school. That screwed me. You see, at work, we have this thing we have to schedule to called the Template. The Template tells managers what the schedule should look like and how many hours are acceptable to use. The company ranks Districts based on Template compliance. Since I wouldn't be able to obey the Template, they don't want to loose rankings because of me, they will not promote me to manager of Gamestop Store in Midwest City. They still stick by they're word that I'm the only one who could take a store right now, but they're hands are apparently tied. No word on the fact that my store now is always Number 1 in compliance, no word that I'm the only employee who gets numbers at my store, no word about how I'm always close to the top of the Assistant Manager's bracket in numbers, no word about how I've worked for this company almost two years and gotten promoted faster than anyone else in my district, no word about how customers have asked for me by name at the Midwest City store, no word about how the current Store Manager of the Midwest City store says that he wants me to take the store, no word about how I've worked as a ASM during not 1 but 3 semesters of going to school, no word about me working almost every day through highschool at Charleston's, there is no mention of any of that. I hate to rant on it, but do you all see what an open and shut case this is? I have to step back to make sure that I'm not just tooting my own horn, but when I do, I see just a fucking bad decision. I know what would have to come first between work and school. I'm not a fucking idiot and think that just because I go to school that I couldn't cover a shift if a manager of mine just suddenly quit. I don't know what the fuck they're thinking but it pisses me off. Manager positions aren't for students, silly Alex!
Apparently, I've taken to talking in my sleep. I first noticed it the other day when Julius called on my cell phone at midnight. I thought I was talking in a dream, but it felt so real that I had to ask Sheena about it. She told me about it before I got a chance to ask. I was talking about how to make it silent. I guess I was referring to the phone ringing, but with me you never know. Anyway, I just think I'm trying to fight the Aliens that are probing my mind with chatter or I'm actually trying to make contact and tell them that I'm going to combat them. I don't know which sounds cooler.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, the most anticipated title of this year is no longer coming out this year. Nintendo announced to my horror that it was being pushed back from November until March. This was just not a good day. I am sad to say, that Nintendo
Finally, some good news!
GREEN DAY BABY! I will be there, listening to my favorite band, in just a matter of hours! I can't believe it. I've wanted to see Green Day for so long. I heard that one of the band members got sick just a few days ago and they had to cancel a show, but they will still be here tomorrow, rocking hard. For those of you who will be enjoying the hard rocking sounds of Green Day tomorrow, please show up early. I want to get in there and hear Jimmy Eat World as well. Sean and I know what it's like to miss a little bit of the show, it's not fun. I want to try to leave at 5. For everyone else, have a good night and rock out to a Green Day song of your choice because it's Green Day Eve, Baby! And Green Day isn't only for kids, it's for Alex too!

Feelings are what women have. They come from the ovaries.
