I don't care if he's hung like a squirrel and poor as a whatever that's poor, I'd fuck the shit out of him just for that face, goddammmmn

I mean he's got a tongue so either way I'm getting mine

So who rounds out the top ten?

I knew this already, of course. So on the way there I just came up with an excuse that my stepdad used it when he has his own car (which he does), so I had to wait for him.

I got there, panicked, wondering what damage I'd done. She takes me in the room and says that the plant manager, who I guess I was supposed to talk to, left. He waited for me. He said, in her words, "I guess it's a no show?" I fell down in my seat. I felt worthless. She asked why I wanted the job so bad, and I said that I'd wanted a job like it for three years and that I don't have any money. I felt my lip starting to quiver.

She asked, "So is this car situation a problem?" And I said that I had money for a car, but I had to use it. I broke down crying, feeling like such an inept bastard. I couldn't make a 10am appointment. I'm living off birthday money. She said that the plant manager would definitely know that I needed a job after tonight, so I'm assuming she'll let him now how desperate I am. I can't believe I cried though.

I think it just hurt me so goddamn bad, because I know that such a situation makes me look like I don't care. Like I'm some shitty kid out of high school that doesn't take work seriously. I go to college an hour early, and am in class a half hour early. This isn't "normal" for me, and thanks to my wonderful short term memory, I shot myself in the foot. I'm not terribly worried though, because their turnover rate is ridiculous. People are always leaving and they constantly fire people for, coincidentally, attendance issues.

I was half tempted to call or e-mail, but I wouldn't even know what to say. The last time I cried in public was when I was in school and I was 12 years old. I was setting off those black snake fireworks at my house the day before, and I accidentally left a lighter in my jacket pocket. I was mortified. It didn't matter what I said, I broke a rule. It's that helpless feeling of being seen as someone you aren't. It gets to me.

Aww man. That seriously sucks. I wouldn't feel too bad about turning up late because you're a decent guy and she can probably tell you're not some arsehole who wouldn't appreciate it, the fact that you cried shows how much it meant to you.

It seems they all conspired to keep the whole thing a secret from me and the root of it appears to be that I've somehow severely pissed off the girl hosting it, to the point where she refuses to talk to me at all. So I've been partly ostracised by half of my best friends and have no idea why. Fun times.

Yeah that's always fun. This was me not too long ago. Stick it out because you guys will start talking again. Confront her and ask what's going on? If she's too immature to talk to you then she probably doesn't deserve to be your friend.

I haven't been in that exact situation but I had a similar one where I was let go because I had an uncontrollable condition that I had recently had to fix it which caused me to take too many days off. In this country you can be let go within the first 3 months of a job.

I hope you end up getting the job, I think they will realise you are very passionate about getting work.

I've always wondered if there's any famous people who have accounts for MB. I mean, think about how cool it'd be if Janszoon was Tom Hanks or Freebase was Morgan Freeman and we seriously had no fucking clue. For all you guys know, I could be Ryan Gosling.

I love Ryan Gosling

But everyone here already knows that I'm a celebrity, I'm Helena Bonham Carter. You might have seen me in Fight Club or lately, everything Tim Burton does.

The ugly bitch from Les Miserables? Yeah, I've seen her in a few movies.

She's not ugly and I don't think she was in Les Mis.

Edit: never mind, she was in it. But shes not that ugly.

Two close friends who are part of my little community here in Nicaragua are leaving tomorrow, back for the States. We all have to leave eventually, but it's sad. When you spend almost all of your time with the same people, nonstop, for five months, you get attached.

In unrelated news, I have an essay/story banging around my head about my "beat philosophy," my personal "belief" that The Beat (related to The Groove) helps drive everything in my life. I'm not sure if it's real or not, or if I'm just trying to be funny. Anyway, I'll probably be putting it down into Word tomorrow, we'll see what happens.

I'm just trying to boil Hermione's blood. I actually found her pretty hot in Fight Club, even though she's really trashy.
