Everything. Simultaneously, Nothing.

So, I've got good news peoples.

Earlier today, I was doing as I said I would; madly hunting online for a job. I found a few things to submit my resume for:
  • Administrative Assistant w/a fleet service
  • Receptionist w/a government contractor
  • Administrative Support for the city inspection department
Plus, I emailed my resume to a few folks I'd networked with whilst downtown at my favorite spot:
Also, one night a couple months ago, I was having a drink with a friend of mine, at:
It was pretty empty in there, on a...Wednesday night I think. Anyhow, it was just me, my friend, the bartender, and these two other guys. So we all ended up chatting and seeing as how I'm looking for a job, that always comes up in conversation and is usually a good way of networking. So, I exchanged email addresses with the two of them (and we're all actually pretty good friends now). One of them told me that he might actually have a position coming up, and told me to make sure I stay in contact with him. It just so happens that I emailed him an updated version of my resume today. About 3 minutes later, maybe not even that many, he emailed me back and told me to call him. Long story short, I'm going to meet up with him on Thursday sometime to discuss a position as a Project Manager's Assistant. We're going to go over in detail what the position entails and all and if I'm interested, then interviews with 'his people' will follow.

I'm really excited! Wish me luck!

So, that's that.

Remember the video I told you I was making last night? The 'tag' video? Well, it's complete (with the help of Takiyah's creative editing, lol). Here it is:



Crazy, aren't I? Yes, I know this much is true.

As promised, let's discuss my slogan for 2008. You ready?

NO DATES IN 'O8

Yeah. Pretty deep, eh? A little far-fetched, maybe.

Yeah, I was out of touch/But it wasn't because I didn't know enough/I just knew too much/Does that make me crazy?/Does that make me crazy?/Does that make me crazy?
Possibly.
~Gnarls Barkley-'Crazy'

Part of me thinks it's a little absurd, but part of me sees it as a challenge.

But Robyn, WHY???

Well, it's like this....excuse me while I go a little *emo on you for a hot second.
*Sidebar-for those that don't know what I mean when I say 'emo.' When I use it, I mean 'melodramatic' or...'angsty.'

Alright, I'm twenty-six years young. I'm a woman. Fairly attractive. Highly intelligent. Great sense of humor. Diverse. Pretty much, awesome....wait, does that make me sound conceited? Because Lord knows, I am certainly not that, by any measure of the word. BUT, that said, I AM convinced that I'm a good catch and have a lot to offer someone at some point. Generally, I don't do a lot of dating, because, well, there just aren't many people that I meet that I'm interested in spending any extended periods of time with. Like I said in the first entry, I'm not usually [overall] attracted to many people. Which makes me...extra lonely, lol. I mean, I do want that person that I can hang out with and joke around, go out with, or sit at home and watch movies, walk through the mall holding hands or just, whatever. But, I don't want to get involved with anyone just for the sake of filling some void, ya know? Because, well, that's just a waste of time, and I've done enough of that. At this point, I feel like, as cliche' and cornball as it sounds, maybe I need to take some time to be happy ALONE...like, content with being on my own. And maybe if I can attain happiness when I'm by myself, then just think how much happier I will be, when I DO find that person. So, what do you think....a year off to learn to be happy on my own? Or is that a bit much? A whole year? Is it unrealistic?

I'm not sure. Because, there's always that chance that, while doing that, I may pass up someone that's perfect for me.

Que Sera, Sera (What Will Be, Will Be).

Before I leave this subject, let me touch on one thing. I don't want anyone to get it twisted. I'm not at home crying my eyes out because I'm lonely. It's a fleeting feeling/thought. Even when it's pretty consistent, it's not as if I'm just locked up in a dark corner or anything. I'm happy...I'm happy with who I am, and who I'm striving to be. I just know that there's something missing, if that makes sense to you.

Okay, now, let me bring the beat back, lol

I had 3, count em, THREE, meals today! Yay me!

Here's something funny....then again, maybe 'I' just find it funny because my sense of humor has reaching embarrassing levels of immaturity :D

This is from earlier when I was job hunting...yes, I take pictures of just about any and everything(pay attention to the last line before #13):

Aaaaahahahahahahahahaha. Okay, maybe it wasn't that funny, but, I did get a kick out of it.

Anywho, speaking of pics, I have an idea. A few years back, on my xanga, I did this thing where, people could give me either types of people or funny faces, and I'd take a pic of me and post it, in character (using whatever I had around the house). For example: detective, librarian, etc. Or for faces: disappointed, constipated (lol), stuff like that. So tell ya what, submit your pic ideas and if I get enough of them, I'll post em up! Be creative people. I repeat, creative. And don't be on no bull neither...I will not be strippin' or any other retarded mess, lol. K, that's that.

Another thing I think I might start doing, is having a Weekly 'Feature of the Day.' So, like, for this whole week, the feature will be videos. And each day, I'll post a different 'Feature Video of the Day.' May be a music video, a random youtube video, etc...just whatevers. Then next week, the feature of the week may be a picture, or a joke, or, well, you get the point. Anyways, look forward to that.

And well, I guess that's it for me tonight, nothing else to report.

Feature Video of the Day Because this will never stop being funny to me.




Oh Mr. Turner, You're My Hero. Here's to 'keepin it real.'

After these messages, I'll be riiiight bok!

SSS, out.

P.S. On myspace, I posted a survey on my bulletin board. That survey had this question:

What does your last text message say?

My response was:

Before I say...you have to understand that the person the text is from...we exchange really really really, randomly retarded messages. The LAST text message I received said: Do you think daphne performs sexual favors for crack? Cuz I'll get some...

LMAO...I feel like you deserve to see the rest of the messages.
Uh...to see them, go to my blog...sucka!!!!!

Okay, so if you're here to see the rest of that text convo, here's how it went:

Ben: one thing i never understood about scooby doo, do all of them live in that van?
Me: Yes, absolutely. Its pretty spacious inside.
Ben: So 4 people and a giant dog live in a van together?
Me: Yes. And they all do crack when they're not catching masked bad guys.
Ben: Do you think daphne performs sexual favors for crack? Cause I'll get some...
Me: No, but Velma does.
Ben: Not my first choice but oh well she'll do.

And there ya have it. Yeah, we're pretty outrageous, and it's like that ALL the time, lol. Stay tuned for future crazy messages.

SSS, {REALLY} out {this time}.

Sooo .. let me first start by saying, wow .. it took me a minute to find the comment link .. lol! Secondly, random - yes, that's it. :>

Since you asked, I'm going to throw in my 2 cents about that whole Single in 08 .. or whatever it was .. lol! I don't think you should really limit yourself to any kind of time restraints .. just let things flow. By eliminating those precious time restraints, you might find that there will not be so much stress/pressure/expectations.

Maybe I need to go hug a tree or something .. but, I strongly believe that if you just try to go w/the flow instead of trying to force things (and limiting yourself using time limits), everything will go along much smoother. Not to say you should stand there, idle, while life passes you by .. rather, don't put so much pressure on yourself .. use that self-confidence that you talked about to keep yourself happy. Afterall, you should be first and don't question yourself so much :>

All-in-all, the way I look at it is like this .. if you're not happy w/yourself, how do you expect yourself to be happy w/someone else. Ultimately, you are the only one that can really make yourself truly happy.

There's my piece :> kind of wordy, and probably matter of fact .. lol! But, ehh .. it happens :>

A word of advice... Take all your pre-concieved notions about love, having/being a soulmate and throw them out the window. Learn to love yourself and then you can love someone else. An remember, being attracted to a person is an emotion and emotions do not equal love.. What happens when that person gets older or grow wider. Do you just leave them because you're not attracted to them, or have you found more to them than being attractive...
