Life's looking up again.

[KagomJack]

Goddamn it feels good to be me right now. I'm graduating from my school. That's four whole fucking years of angst and drama being left behind. The only regret I have is I wasn't more social and that I'll be leaving all my friends behind. But hey, a better life is ahead methinks.

The guy I want to move in with FINALLY has a job. Sweet, right? Maybe next we'll get a place of our own. Cross your fingers. Monkeys are funny. I can taste purple.

I'm going to Canada in June with my ex (hoping to). He's going to be meeting his real mother for the first time since he was very little. It's an exciting chapter in his life and I'm honored I'll be able to be apart of it, though I am the alternative (his boyfriend was in a car accident and is immobile for two months. Ouch, right?).

I"m being interviewed for something!!!!!!!! Sweet :D I'm being interviewed by a friend's mother about being gay in a Catholic school. Should prove to be fairly interesting.

Finally...freedom. I'm leaving my mom behind in a couple of months for school and the start of a new life. I can't help but feel like saying "Finally." I love my mom and I think, despite all the differences and fighting we've done, I wouldn't trade her for the world, but I want to be free from her. I want to experience life. I know there are hardships and pain ahead. I know I can't be prepared for everything. I know I don't know everything. I've conveyed that, like Socrates claimed, I know nothing. You learn by experiencing life. I'm ready to do that. Hardships or an easy time. Sorrow or happiness. I'm ready, I think.

Anyways, commentary or anything?

You live a strange life. *shrug*

It sucks that you are persecuted for your sexual preferences.

Yeah man but what can you do about it? he chooses to have penis in the butt.

[Willkillforfood]

Homosexuality and the roman catholic church!? That's the first time I've heard those two mentioned in the same sentence! el oh el.

[HandOfHeaven]

Never heard of gay priests?

[Lenny]

But they're Protestant, ain't they?

[HandOfHeaven]

Most of them are Roman Catholic.

[KagomJack]

The only persecution I get is from my mom. I've been well accepted otherwise and I'm quite thankful for that.

There's something funny in that statement.

Anyway, I had the impression that you were looked down upon at school.

[KagomJack]

Just by some people (the priests). As a whole, the teachers don't know save for a few and the ones that do are cool with it (considering we have three gay teachers and a lesbian teacher).

Also, no trip to Canada. Can't afford it now. Need money for rent/deposit.

[Willkillforfood]

I was being sarcastic. For money you should whore yourself out, Kagom.

[KagomJack]

No...I'm not a fan of casual sex, even if it is for money :D

[Grav]

Casual sex kicks ass. I prefer wearing tshirts than suits and ties.

[KagomJack]

It makes me a bit uncomfortable, but that's not discussion for here.

[Grav]

Did you miss the lame joke? Nevermind.

[Willkillforfood]

lol. You should explain the job to him via whispering sweet nothings in his ear, Grav.

[KagomJack]

Now I get it =o

The blonde in my hair is starting to affect me.

[gruesomeBODY]

glad to hear shits turning around. If you could, post the questions that they ask you about going to catholic school and your replies. I think some of us would likw to read that.

[Ganga]

Hopefully you are going to college, and hopefully a four year college. Little career advise. First year, enjoy college make friends with fun and smart people. Second year, same but except work at the campus. Oh, and also get your gpa above 3.2. Third year, go and work for something relate to your major. Four year, apply and work for well known companies. If your dady does not own a muti million dollars company, I suggest you follow my advise, else you will be fuck by the time you graduate from college, oh and time in college fly since it's just too much fun here. This apply to anyone going to college and in college.

[Willkillforfood]

Find gay Fortune 500 executives to write love letters to. You know at least a few have to be.

[KagomJack]

I wouldn't not go to college. I'm double majoring in English Education and Drama.

[Ganga]

well then...... have fun being a teacher.

[KagomJack]

I will be. I figure I'd be happy as an actor just as much as I would a teacher. Both have their own perks and have their own rewards.

[Lenny]

Teachers get some of the best holidays.

[Ganga]

yup, summer and winter off. Oh, have fun hunting job during those "vacation".

[KagomJack]

I don't think it'd be that hard for me to find a job. I'm qualified to work with PDI programs (which c-store businesses use often or so PDI has said).

[Sovereign]

Go work in retail. You'll love it so much. You'll come home everday NOT wanting to kill the world.

[MightyJoe]

lawl, people are horrible

[KagomJack]

That's okay...I already got that feeling working in an office. I'll hate any job that doesn't incorporate what I enjoy doing.

[Lenny]

Then you make it interesting.

See how far you can push someone before they snap; put decaf in the coffee machine for a few weeks then, once everyone is over their caffeine addictions, stick Espresso in; on your coffee break, go out into the carpark, park you car as close to the road as possible, and point a hairdryer at people - see how many slow down, thinking it's a police speed camera; heck, label your bin as you "IN" box.

It could be the dullest job in the world, but you can still make it that little bit more fun.

Turn you monitor up to it's brightest setting and tell anyone who asks that that's the way you like it; insist that your company e-mail address be [email protected] or [email protected] ; whenever you go somewhere, like the toilet, tell everyone over the Intercom system; buy some opera CDs...and sing along!

[Willkillforfood]

Those are some good ways to get fired :o.

[Sovereign]

Hmm... depending on which manager is on duty, I may be a ble to get away with some of that...

[Lenny]

Ooooh!! You've got to try some! Then post itsy bitsy stories abnout how mad everyone gets. :)

Here's a full list of things:

21 Ways to keep a healthy level of insanity around yourself and your workplace.......

1. At lunchtime, sit in your parked car and point a hair dryer at passing cars to see if they slow down.

2. Page yourself over the intercom (don’t disguise your voice).

3. Insist that your e mail address be: ‘[email protected]’ or ‘[email protected]’ (‘[email protected]’).

4. Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want fries with that.

5. Encourage your colleagues to join you in a little synchronised chair dancing.

6. Put your bin on your desk and label it 'IN'.

7. Develop an unnatural fear of staplers.

8. Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has got over their caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.

9. Reply to everything someone says with, “That’s what you think”.

10. Finish all your sentences with “In accordance with the prophecy”.

11. Adjust the tint on your monitor so that the brightness level lights up the entire working area. Insist to others that you like it that way.

12 Dont use any punctuation

13. As often as possible, skip rather than walk.

14. Ask people what sex they are.


18. Find out where your boss shops and buy exactly the same outfits. Wear them one day after your boss does (This is especially effective if your boss is the opposite gender).

19. Send e-mail to the rest of the company to tell them what you’re doing. For example: “If anyone needs me, I’ll be in the bathroom”.

20. Put mosquito netting around your cubicle.

Some have no relevance to the office, so they've been deleted, in accordance with the prophecy!

And the moral of the story is: If you go work in an office Kagom, then we'll all pray for your soul.

[HandOfHeaven]

Wow Lenny, you have too much time on your hands...

[Lenny]

I just find them online and compile them. Here are some more. :)

Nuts to that, too many.
