I'm done!
I got 88 on my test. need 90 to pass and that's on every test and its only for a grade of "C". I have 4 to do and i'm on 3. due May 20th. Shouldn't be so bad.
Earlier i found out i got the wrong book. Same exact cover, but one is an intro version with 9 chapters. I get complete version which is 13 chapters, but the assessment is saying there is 17 chapters! I contact him about it and he merely says, " Keep doing the work,thanks". He didn't even read my email or he doesn't speak English.
I want at least a B, but he doesn't post anything about what we need to do to do that. Hopefully once i finish 4 i will automatically see it. Worst class ever =/

*sigh* I actually feel better now =)
So yeah, last Thursday at work, my boss called me into his office. There was an HR rep there. He looked at me and said this exact sentence. "Your work isn;t where we thought it would be. We're letting you go, today is your last day."
So yeah, no warning, no notice that they were dissatisfied. Just an axe. I got fired. Looking for a new job as we speak. If anyone knows any insurance based jobs around Chicago, IL, please let me know.
Aside from worrying about paying bills, I can't buy the materials to build the silicone tail I had designed. I'll keep you all posted on my search progress.
That would be so unbelievably illegal here in the UK X_x USA personel law just makes me want to ragequit so bad....Quote:

Do you know if they had an 'employment at will' statement in their hiring policies? Were you there long enough to file for unemployment?Quote:

An image I've had lots of indie writers aproach for their period ebooks but I've had to say no because I knew I could sell it for a commercial cover and be paid. Also for reasons such as I had to write a check for what works out as $1670 to the designer of the dress from the shoot for her to cash in case the dress was damaged (which could easily have happened as it was a location shoot) I drove hours to get to the location, had models travel in from both sides of the country..... it cost myself a lot to do too because I wanted to do it.
This company never attempted to contact me, used it without permission and have been selling these books since 2011. *table flip*
Luckily managed to track the publishers down and sent them a rather scathing email... lets see if they actually fucking reply.
I'm also stressing about my best friend who has gone in for some fairly major surgery today (can't name them or say what the surgery is) so I'm also fighting the urge to pace up and down my house out of worry for them.
Also seeing as I haven't given an update in a while. Mum's ex - Paul, is still not out of our lives and is still being a fucktard. He seems to be trying to make the house sale fall through. Mum has submitted all the paperwork the solicitors need for the house sale to go through and he hasn't submitted a single piece of paper and isn't responding to their letters or calls. *sigh* so we're in limbo not knowing when we're going to have to move out, and at the moment that would be into a rental because mum can't get a mortgage because of HIM making her take on debts and affecting her credit rating. I can't start doing sculpting for tailmaking until we're moved into a non-rental house. I could do it but then we might have to move and it be wrecked or moulds could be broken, and I can't be pouring silicone in a rental property! I also can't get a new cat until we're settled in the non-rental house too! :'(
I also went through a seriously painful medical procedure april 1st... and it seems to have done fuck all :'( I'd been holding off on my training because of it.
LIFE. WAI. YOU. TROLL. ME?!!
Edit: Not to mention the fact that my marriage seems to be fucking non-existant.
So las Vegas is a cesspool of tobacco fume. Since I'm Canadian all public places have designated smoking areas or there's no smoking allowed. This place however ...
Guess I'm coming home with lung cancer and blisters on my feet lol.. :p
URGH I need a rant...
So my Boyfriend's mother is being a complete pain. Throughout our relationship she has been the main cause of everything wrong in our relationship, and in most things wrong in my life. Right at the start she was very supportive, however I was very shy...and because I was very shy she somehow took offence to that? O_o I know it's weird...but anyway, I went COMPLETELY out of my comfort zone to try and please her and make her happy...but to no avail, she seemed to completely disregard me as a human being and think of me as 'rude' for being shy and not talkative.
Fast forward and I turned 16 (I was 14 at the beginning of our relationship) and my boyfriend starts staying over at mine, in my bed instead of on the sofa as it was before. I wasn't even allowed to stay in his because of his apparent 'homophobic stepdad' (I'll get to why that's in quote marks later) so I respect the mans opinions and not bug anyone, and instead stay at a friends in my boyfriend's town whenever there was something on which required me to stay in town longer than the bus times.
However, there were various occasions where I only needed to stay an hour after the last train, and yet I was NEVER offered a lift home by his parents and when I asked for one, I was usually answered with a 'No' or with a 'Yes if you pay for the petrol' now the paying thing wouldn't even bother me...if my family didn't drive my boyfriend wherever I asked! And this is a BIG thing because my family has gone through a LOT in the three years me and my boyfriend have been together, and yet my family has NEVER EVER made it a problem for us two...and yet any little thing going wrong in his mother's life affects us somehow.
Fast forward again and my bf's mother falls out with a mutual friend, and I take my bf's mother side because I see that she is right...and WOW we're suddenly friends and she doesn't mind me staying over. now back to the homophobic step-dad. Whenever my boyfriend asked HIM if I could stay over all he said was 'Of course, so long as you stay out of my way' which leads me to think the problem with me staying over was HER problem all along. But who cares right? We're friends now and everything's great!
Yeah not for long...I have a disagreement with someone who she is friend's with. This disagreement is NOTHING to do with her...but suddenly she hates me again and is causing me and my boyfriend so much pain...as if we have nothing else going on between us anyway!
Safe to say I cannot WAIT for my boyfriend to graduate uni, get a job, and move out so we can be free of her! urgh. Funny thing is, I don't think she realises how much pain she causes her own son.
*hugs* she needs a good finslap round the back of the head. Probably if you and your boyfriend suddenly stood up to her together or he did on his own and told her outright why you are quiet and that it's not acceptable and fair for her to treat you so differently on a whim based on matters that don't even concern her, and his opinion of her (and the pain she's caused), you'd probably shock her into sorting out her behaviour, she's probably only acting this way because she's trying to be the dominant personality and she sees that you seem easier to be dominant over cause you're quiet and reserved. If that makes sense 0.oQuote:

I had that happening all day long yesterday for the 39th page of the "Soap opera drama bubble" thread. It was frustrating! :mad:Quote:

Seriously need to get this off my chest.
I went out with friends, there's a guy there who just can't take no for an answer. He freaked me out the last time we all went out by constantly sending me messages on facebook, wall of texts telling me how much he cared and that I was a stone cold woman because I didn't want a relationship. I only met him for a couple of hours.
Then last night he tried to kiss me, hold my hand and guilt tripped me into hugging him. He keeps trying.
I have no idea what to do, I'm too nice to tell him to go away.
€@&%%#! Leaky diving mask!
Tell him to get off his fucking entitlement high horse.Quote:

That women have the right to choose what they do with their hearts, minds and bodies and that at the end of the day, that the fact you don't have feelings for him does not make you a cold person, the fact that he blatently disregards your own choices, your thoughts and so totally disrespects your personal space and boundaries... makes him something FAR worse than a 'cold' person.
And if none of that works... bring him to MCM and I'll sort him out so he runs home crying to his mum cause this rant is tame compared to the tirade he would recieve from me in person.
I'm either going to take a large friend with me next time I go out with that group or my very very rarely seen nasty side would be seen.Quote:

guys that pull the "cold woman"-card because you don't happen to be into them are the biggest a$$holes of them all.
they also realize you're too nice to tell them off in a manner they won't try again, and they capitalize on that friendliness.
Take a hot-headed, male friend and let the creeper take a beating if it has to be. :p
I was interested in him, the first hour of meeting him and then he asked if I had a boyfriend and I truthfully replied nope just seeing people nothing seriously. He then ignored me the rest of the night and proceeded to send me those messages. The worst part was when he said I chew men and spit them out before moving to the next guy.Quote:

Hey I have a guy who is similar (not as aggressive and used to be a friend) it's best to just ignore them. Don't let em make you feel guilty because they are manipulators and scummy.
