learning adult type things

I'm thinking of investing some money in the stock market. I just need to learn how to do it.

impressed

I have to admit that I am pretty impressed with myself lately. I've actually kept up on my blogging. I'm not sure why that impresses me so much. It's not as if I am a professional blogger who gets paid to share my thoughts and opinions. Nonetheless, I am impressed.

I'm sitting at Forza in Puyallup. It's kind of nice. I'm not really doing anything of importance though. My reasoning for coming with my laptop was to work on my cover letter for the job I found that I really want. However, that is not happening. I was lucky enough to get a spot in a big comfy chair by the fireplace. The only thing that might make it better is if Forza was decorated for Christmas!

Tomorrow if finally Halloween! I'm super excited.

It's nice being out in the real world with people who are busy doing things with their lives. It kind of makes me feel like I am doing something with my life. I'm starting to get bored lately. This is why I came out to Forza today. I needed to be around people for the sake of my sanity. Although, it's not bad enough to talk to myself yet like a dear friend of mine did :)

Part of me thinks that I should just start applying for positions even though they aren't what I want to do. At least it would give me something to do with all of my time. But I also have been thinking that I should volunteer at some place for now. I could just tell them that I can make a long-term commitment to them right now because I might get job. I'm not even sure where I would want to volunteer at. I should start looking. At least it would give me something to do with my time.

paint and school stuff

Tomorrow I get to paint my parents bathroom. I'm pretty excited. I think part of it seeing something accomplished. I get a lot of satisfaction when I complete a project or school assignment and the latter I can't do anymore. Also, my dad is pretty anal when it comes to paintin and thinks that I can't paint good enough. SO! Tomorrow I don't have to listen to him tell me I can't paint by the edges because I will get paint on them...when I don't get paint on them.

I cleaned out my desk tonight and am giving Ben all of my things that I don't need anymore because I am not in school. It's kind of sad. I miss school lately. I miss staying up late writing papers. I miss sitting at Starbucks during the winter time, drinking something yummy and attempting to read my school books but never really succeeding. I think what I really miss is learning.

all things fall

Right now I'm sitting at the Forza in Gig Harbor with Ben while he attempts to accomplish some much needed work.

I can't believe that October is almost over! To be honest, I'm slighly disappointed in myself yet again. Fall is my favorite time of year and every year I always promise myself that I will make the most of the season. However, I don't think that I have. But thinking of it, I'm not sure what it would look like to "make the most of the season". There are only so many things that I can do that are fallish and I feel like I have done them already. Pumpkin patch...check. Super cool corn maze...check. Carving pumpkins...check. Drinking yummy apple cider...check. Sitting in a cozy and fun coffee shop with children dressed in warm clothes and pumpkins all around...check. Any other suggestions?

Side note: I'm excited for Halloween on Friday.

I applied for a job on Wednesday. It would definitely be nice to start working again, but my heart isn't set on this job. I did find another that I would be really excited to get. I haven't applied yet, so I will do that this weekend or Monday. Hopefully, something will come of it.

Side note: I do NOT want to have a lot of children. There is a mom sitting across from me very frustrated because her child keeps pulling up her shirt. She said, "Douglas, stop showing everyone my fat!"

I voted this past week too. I can't believe election day is almost here! It's pretty exciting. Over the past few months I've become really engrossed in politics. Some pretty interesting and life altering things have happened over the past few months that will definitely make the history books. And on top of that, how could I not be interested watching whichever party is going to make history! Nonetheless, I will be glued to the tv on Nov. 4th!

I think taking a walk somewhere will be nice.
