So much to learn and enjoy when you're young....

aeiirl

Since my last post a few months ago so much has happened. I think all of us need to take a step back and assess the situation... most of us on this site have amazing men that love us unconditionally and just because we live in the USA I'm sure most of us live very blessed lives.

I finally am taking steps towards independence from my parents, and it is about time (I'm 20) so I have decided to move to Orange County from the Inland Empire. I spend ALL my money on gas driving one direction everyday for school and the on the weekends I drive the complete opposite direction to see my honey, cuz quite frankly I hate where I live. It used to be a really nice place to live but it is becoming really ghetto.

There are homeless people that hang out by the end of our street and on the lawn at our business and if you take the time to talk to them it's really sad because they were literally dumped here from other cities. There is so much going on with the politics of this city- they clean one district and move the trashy people to another district, the move homeless people in from other cities, they don't crack down on all the bad stuff that goes on, I literall sit inside when I am home alone bcause I don't know how safe it is to be outside anymore.

Then there is school.... ohh college... nothing they told me about you is true, and I dont give you enough of my time because I spend most of it driving...

So I have been applying to jobs in OC. My relationship with my boyfriend is stronger than ever and we talk so much no and even when we don't get to a lot I still feel secure in our relationship. AND when I'm with him it's like there are no stresses in my world. I don't care what anyone thinks about me when I am with him because I know that he thinks I am beautiful and that's all that matters.

I APPLIED to ......    DISNEYLAND

I hope I get the job! I love disneyland on so many levels. I have always wanted to be a neon monkey in the fantamic! show... but I applied as a dining room busser because that pays $9.70 and the postion opened on May 11th and after I filled out the application yesterday the position page expired. And it says my application is being reviewed this is the 3rd job I have applied to, and I have like a list of 10 more to go.

I'm so excite for the summer! I jsut don't want to be stuck here in RSide for the rest of my life so I figure I might as well go live NOW

Wish me luck! and any advice?

Suggestions where to apply?

Oh and my BF told me sunday (mother's day) that he misses me so much that he wanted to call my dad to set a date to meet up to TALK to him because he wants to be with me everyday I know it will happen when God wants it to and it's only been 1 year and 8 months that we have been going together but I know this is right They always say "when you find the ONE you will know" and I was totally thinking that and then BF told me that and I was like awww Its so amazing to know that they feel the same way!

Rdr, tiger..... That was hilarious. Also, what??? This is making my head hurt. Take it from me, I'm 26 and am having to readjust to changes in life, desires, etc. I got married at 19. Bad bad bad bad bad idea. My life is no where that I thought it would be. FINISH school!!

Wow I just got a complete life lesson from you. I never realized I lived in the USA and had a guy who loved me.  I'm just going to take a moment to step back and assess my situation.

Well We don't know you.  It's like walking into a full Starbucks and saying Today I forgot to wear socks!!  No one gives a rats as$.  This isn't a blog.  Once you know people then it is ok to talk about what you have learned.  But you have to lurk first and comment on other people's posts.  Until then you are just some crazy newbie.

Your post seemed more like rambling than ranting.

No i didn't expect anyone to remember my last post, I just figured I'd mention it before someone asked if I had posted before, if anyone remembered.

And yah Obama lol memes

If everyone thought what I wanted to say was so unnecesarry then why not say that straight up or something...

I'm not posting on here all the time and so it doesn't make sense to lash out. 

But I get it.

<div>It was just like you busted up in here saying "Hey everyone! I learned a valuable life lesson that you all told me to learn months ago! Look at me and my emotions!" That's totally cool if you post regularly (ie: daily, every other day), but you came in once and asked a question, and we gave you our advice. </div><div>
</div><div>A nice follow up post would have been short, concise, and clear, preferably with a link to your previous post that you're referencing. Your OP was punctuated poorly and was long and rambly with hard to follow thoughts. <-- direct constructive critisizm. We like to read, obvs, but we like reading to be easy for us, esp if we're not emotionally invested in you yet. </div>

cu97tiger

I'm sorry if you didn't get the reaction you were expecting. You came in here telling us all what our life situations are and what we need to do (i.e. reflect and be grateful). There are actually a few posters on here without significant others, and since we really don't know anything about you, I'm not sure why you thought we'd respond by saying 'Thank you for the reminder' or 'You're so right!' or 'Why didn't I think of that before?'

Stick around, post on other people's threads, tell us more about yourself, use less exclamation points. Everyone will thank you!

GoldenPenguin

Thanks, Tiger, for reminding me how alone I am!!!

I'm going back to my sad, lonely, crazy cat lady life.
