Joy: My new keyboard came in the mail yesterday!
Sorrow: There aren't many overly interesting profiles on the internet for it.
Joy: Repurposed one of them to fit my keyboards.
This is what I ended up with

Joy: 2 months of random paperwork, waiting, and exams are over! If there are no problems with money and visa, then I might be studying in Riga beginning this September on the same faculty, which is quite better than where I am now. Yay! ^v^

Brah that's awesome!! Please let me know when you hear back from them, I really wanna know where you get into.

Sorrow: Still haven't heard back from any jobs I applied to.

Follow up and call them yourself and ask. Until they say "Sorry, we can't hire you", don't stop. Companies like that and it keeps you fresh in their mind. That's the biggest mistake people make when applying for jobs. They're going to hire the person who shows they want the job, not the one who drops off an application and leaves it at that.

Sorrow: Stepdad had to go to hospital due to a large lump on his kneecap. He never noticed it until now. It was huge. like a large baseball. It didn't bother him until seconds later. hope he's ok.

This can go either way. Some companies consider people who call or show up overly aggressive. One I worked for would mark applications "unhireable" if the applicant called. I've spoken to more than a few managers who say their time is wasted by people calling constantly to make sure they received an online application. Others will only interview people who call or come in. I'd do research on how the places you applied handle such things.

It also depends on your employment history. If it's your first time, I find the passive approach is the best.

Joy: He's ok! Although I won't know the full story until later today, at least he wasn't in any major pain after they checked up on him.

Well, don't be annoying when calling them; don't call the day after you send in your application, or even every day.
But I'd say it's fully okay to call if you haven't heard from them after 2 weeks. It also depends on the company and job you apply for. A smaller company you applied for a helping job should be able to decide quicker than a large concern where you applied together with a hundred of other people for a qualified job they announced a vacancy for.

Posted: **Fri May 15, 2015 3:10 pm**

This isn't my first job, but I'm gonna wait a bit more before calling them. Maybe a couple of weeks.

Though I didn't pass the Wal-Mart assessment test.

Joy: At BLFC having a great time!
Joy: Met Rick Griffin
Joy: Commissioned and bought stuff from Rick Griffin

Posted: **Fri May 15, 2015 4:38 pm**

Sounds awesome, great for you, Douglas.

Sorrow: It's hot because the A/C isn't on and I don't understand how to turn down the target temp to make it colder...

Posted: **Fri May 15, 2015 11:07 pm**

I am so jealous you got to meet him right now!

That would be my reaction, too. :3

Joy: I have a deal with my cafeteria lady whereby I get the crusts from the raisin toast that she can't sell to anyone else for half the regular price of raisin toast. I love crusts.

Double Joy: I have a loyalty card for my cafeteria which gets me every 7th hot chocolate for free.
Triple Joy: Today I got cheap toast and free hot chocolate meaning breakfast cost me just $2.

Joy: DAT SCORELINE!

Orlando City 4-0 LA Galaxy

Joy: I guy inherited 3 Marshall amps (about $250-$400 value each) and didn't know what they were so he was selling them for $10 at a yard sale.

Sorrow: It was 6:30 and I'd only slept an hour so I didn't think to buy them.

Posted: **Tue May 19, 2015 8:19 pm**

Joy: I have been accepted to Monroe Technology Center next year (My Senior Year) to take Computer & Digital Animation! It will be so fun! Only problem is...
Sorrow: Due to having been accepted for the Animation program, I have to give up my elective classes... This means no AP (Advanced Placement) German class.... D:
Joy: However, my German teacher has told me that she will let me take the AP exam next year for credit anyway, and I will be in the German club anyway.
I've heard far too many people say that they've taken a language in High School and they don't remember any of it. I don't want that to happen to me!

Posted: **Tue May 19, 2015 8:35 pm**

Joy: I bought my new graphics card today, got Witcher 3 and Batman: Arkham Knight for free
Bought the DLC for skyrim. Bought Dark Souls 2, it was a great day.

As I said before in another topic, congratulations on making it into the course you wanted to get into Czukay!

Shoulda just pretended to be super racist during the interview process.

Joy: I almost move to my new hospital! And most of my medical school application is over!

Sorrow: I'm becoming kinda uncertain about me and my mate, which is disappointing, 'cause they're really sweet. :/

Posted: **Wed May 20, 2015 11:44 pm**

Lucky for me, I haven't had that come up yet. So thats a joy! *knocks on wood*

sorrow: I got sad watching David Letterman's last Late Show. I've watched him since elementary school, and even seen some of his old shows from VHS tapes my parents had.

I wonder if I can get out of it if I just answer every question with "there is no ethical consumption under capialism" :p

Depends on how liberal your state is.

I'm in Michigan, so not very. I think it's worth a shot

Joy: I'm getting my computer fixed!
Sorrow: It will probably take a few days

Posted: **Fri May 22, 2015 10:25 pm**

Sorrow: I am regretting heavily my choice to bring Ulfric Stormcloak to power. Skyrim does indeed chiefly belong to the Nords, as her founders. But her borders are open to all and none should suffer because of what they are. He has already been brought to power and the civil war is over. I have made a grave mistake.

Posted: **Fri May 22, 2015 11:06 pm**

Joy: It's official.

Say hi to my new girlfriend, Capin.

Joy:Three day weekend. So much to do, so many games to play that I can't decide.

Sorrow:This is it for a long time, because the 4th of July is on a Saturday this year, so I don't think I'll be getting any other time off outsider of a vacation day till Labor Day.

Posted: **Sat May 23, 2015 3:36 pm**

Joy: Internet working nicely again after being buggy yesterday and acting strange as not loading webpages at all but working fine with Skype...

Foxstar wrote:Joy:Three day weekend. So much to do, so many games to play that I can't decide.

Hmm... If you want to play ONE game, play Minecraft, that easily takes up the whole time.

Oh, Labour day has been on 1st of May here. When do you have it?

Posted: **Sat May 23, 2015 4:36 pm**

Sorrow: I won't be getting my main computer back until Thursday.

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 12:39 am**

I dunno Render, I could debate that with Skyrim.

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 12:23 pm**

And I could debate that with Fallout! Bethesda makes great games

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 2:16 pm**

Joy: I finally got an FA account and uploaded a few pictures already:

Sorrow: I need to get a better camera for my art...but I don't have money

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 6:48 pm**

Sorrow: Very tired. getting an early sleep. Grandfather's feet were blue today. He's not looking very well =(

Posted: **Sun May 24, 2015 9:26 pm**

Sorrow: My mate and I are no longer together.

Joy: It's over now, and we can heal and work on our friendship together now. And we had a good weekend together at least!
