Oh ok! Thanks.

Yeah, we only have one bus line in my area so I have to get off at a different state just to come right back to this one since where I live, they don't offer the bus that goes out to where all of these places are that pays well. But I don't have to worry about that since I might try to babysit and earn money for a car. Even if it's cheap. As so long as they don't want me to do any driving and what not. A lot of parents what their babysitters to own their own car, pick up their children from school and be CPR and first aid certified. It's like, come on, that's a little overboard for just a couple hours worth of babysitting. They make it seem like the worst is going to happen. I know that stuff is important but, I don't know, I had been babysitting for most of my life, or well since I turned about like 13 I guess. I had a lot of younger cousins and I have a younger brother and nieces and nephews that I watched and nothing bad ever happened and I wasn't a trained professional.

Where do you live, in a ritsy area? o.O None of the babysitters I had ever had that kind of training and stuff, and they only had family cars. Heck, we actually had to report one of our babysitters for child abuse against her own child. She took a wooden spoon, beat him with it until it broke, then took a metal and plastic one to beat him with it until it broke. Then she went to get a belt and start beating him with the buckle when I jumped in front to take the hit instead. I was about sixe or seven at the time and knew that was wrong. And all of that over him jumping from the bed onto his pillow that was on the floor. Something me and my brother had also been doing. We thought since we're not allowed to jump on the bed, taking a pillow to cushion the fall and jump from the bed to the floor should be fine since she had a first floor apartment.

Nope! It's a decent area, though a city over is VERY ghetto! It's really trashy but it's only in a certain area in the beginning of the city. Go a bit further and it's like night and day! I mean, it's no rich area but it's a nice looking area. But the cities are usually together, like that city is literally across the street and we are one school district. And despite being two cities that are thought of as one, we are still VERY small. But I have seen a lot of posts that say you basically have to be educated and what not to be a babysitter. Of course not all are like that but I see a lot of posts like that for babysitting. And in the very least, every posts wants you to have your car, don't have it then don't bother. I find it ridiculous.
Damn! That'r horrible! I don't understand ANYONE who can beat a child like that! It's a very horrible and despicable act! Any crime with children is the worse! That sickens me more than anything to know that someone can hurt a defenseless child! I never understood it. I remember seeing a video of some mother in thailand smacking her crying baby across the face and smacking the baby's butt very hard. She would even hit him with a pillow. The baby just cried out in pain and clearly just wanted his mother to hold him and comfort him and yet no, she just pinches the shit out of him and then when he tries to crawl onto her lap she flings his head off. The one filming this wanted proof of the abuse to show to the police, though in the comments a lot of people thought the person was just as guilty but I saw a video on it where that person said that so I can understand easily how they would think that they were just as guilty. But you don't have to speak their language to understand that the person was telling the to stop, or at least that's how it sounded to me because whenever the mother did something, you would hear someone yell something so I assumed it was stop. But I could be wrong.

I remember when I first moved to the state I now live in, my dad was seeing this lady while my parents weren't together, and she told me I had to eat her casserole or else I won't be able to eat anything, which my dad didn't like that. I told her, that's ok, I will go to my aunt and get a hamburger, my aunt lived a few houses down. And I left and got myself a hamburger! I don't know why she was trying to act like my mom. My dad never saw her again. But that was really about it. I was never abused.

Yeah, my mom tries to pull that when she feeds us things, if she pushes me enough I just go out and get food. And they won't accept you getting a ride from like a family member either? That's kind of dumb to expect kids trying to go to college have cars. Sure, some people can afford to with their scholarship money, but I couldn't afford to get a car. Hell, I had to use my mom's car until she got fed up of sharing a car with me (my dad said I'd have the car first for work because they didn't want to drive me all the time) and she got a new car. But I have to pay for all the repairs and everything on the car, so I had to shell out about $1,500 to replace my brakes and calipers last year and this year $700 something for the tires. =.=;

Yeah, I usually like what my mom makes so I never had that problem. But it helps that she tries to avoid things we don't like. But since I don't like fish, whenever my mom makes it, I just don't eat it. I usually snack on something else because my mom would get upset if I go out to eat because she made a delicious dinner that no restaurant can replicate! lol. I hope I will be able to get a car soon. I was thinking about just buying an rv an just travel around the country, only stopping to work for a couple weeks to build up money for gas and what not. I don't think I would actually do that though. And since I din't have a car, I couldn't work while in college because everything was far away. They had a bus that ran from 6 pm to 10 pm if you needed to go out shopping and it would only go to walmart or another store but that was it. And I would have settle for a job there if it was longer than four hours! It was ridiculous! Oh, and it went to the mall but if you miss the last bus, be prepared to walk back which would take about an hour or two, depending on how fast you walk. And then the bus never ran on the weekends. But the buses that went around campus, was there all day despite the classes all being in walking distance.

That sounds pretty annoying, but at least you had a bus go out there, all the college I went to I don't think any of them had that.

Yeah. and I had a roommate who was very awesome. She would buy me a bunch of food with her meal plans and meal plan dollars, meal plans are when you go out to the restaurants you use those and meal plan dollars are what you use at the stores, though you can use them at restaurants but you can't use meal plans at stores. Depending on your plan, you can get a range of 12 to 21 meal plans and only use up to 4 a day. But some meals costs like 2-4 meal plans for one meal! The ones that just cost 1 mp just gives you VERY little food. I had 14 mp, which resets after a week, so every monday, but mpd only resets after every semester. Anyway, I would always run out of both very quickly because everything was expensive. So my roommate would even sometimes go to walmart, me with her, and buy me a bunch of groceries!

Sorry, I have been gone for a while, I found out horrible news about my nieces and I have been busy helping them and what not. They need to be shown that they are loved. I'm just glad they are safe in my brother's care now.

Your meal plan sounds different from the one I had, we could only use it at campus locations. And the worst part about that is that even outside companies had to use ingredients provided by the college. :/

And oh dear, were they being abused?

Just want to say I'm actually hoping that Micah stumbles across Roselle.

Yeah, yeah, this was restaurants on campus, sorry I didn't say that, I wasn't thinking lol. But we did have like chain restaurants there like Papa Johns, Popeyes, Panda Express and Subway. The only one that actually tasted like how it usually does is Panda Express and Subway, I never had popeyes before I went there so I can't say for certain and I only ate their onion rings and their chicken strips, I hated how greasy their fried chicken was. But I LOVED their spicy chicken, like, it was really good, and their biscuits are so buttery! I usually don't like biscuits either. And I didn't like them until the fourth time I ate them and then I'm like, well, it's not too bad, and I only ate them before because I was still hungry afterwards. But Papa Johns tasted different. It wasn't nasty, just different. I lived off of their breadsticks though. I ate too much pizza, my parents would buy one for me when I didn't have anything to eat sometimes and I got sick of pizza.

Don't know for certain but possibly by their mother's boyfriend. I'm just so glad to see the finally. I haven't seen them in years because their mother hates us and is the biggest fat bitch ever.

Lol, alright, though I don't know how he would react to her since he hates vampires.

Well, at least your food tasted decent, the food wasn't always all that great at my college. ^^;

Yeah, well, most places close to my dorm were utter crap. For any good meal I had to go all the way up the hill for good food, othrwise I would have to settle for greasy soggy old food. You can tell it wasn't fresh also! I ordered a burger and asked for ketchup and the bun was so soggy like they prepared it the day before. Some parts without ketchup or grease from the burger were stale. And it was 90 percent bun, 5 percent toppings and 5 percent burger. The place where the burger was, that was the soggiest part while the rest of the bread which was way too big for the itty bitty burger was stale. I literally ripped off more than half the bun wondering where the meat was. It even tasted like it was made the day before. I was pissed! And the worse part it, its supposedly made when you order since you build your burger on this machine. O and then I order curly fries and regular "fresh" cut fries. They never gave me the curly fries and their "fresh" cut were nasty as hell, and I love anything fries! I never had fries that I ever disliked before!

That actually sounds worse than my college. :/ Also, I'm been bit busy, things are not going well for me and I'm in the process of getting a new car.

Yeah. I hope all goes well for you! I'm about to finally get a new car also! Hopefully all goes well!

So far everything is good, going to have to go soon and make a payment on it, its due on the 25th. I wanted to do it by going to the bank and getting a slip for it so as to keep a record.

Yeah, that's a good idea! Always keep records, especially for major things like that.

Yeah, going to wait for my next paycheck to do that.

Oh ok. I wish I had a paycheck, aka a job lol. I had to quit mine because of how horrible it was and their contract was ending so I wouldn't even have one now anyway if I had stayed. Plus they were looking for a way to fire me, I think. That's the vibe I got because of a lot of reasons. But it's not been easy to find a new job, especially without a car.

Yeah, I have a friend in a similar situation, but mostly because of no license and no car. ^^;

Oh, yeah, it sucks when you don't have a car. But, I am going for a job interview in a few days so I hope I will get it and then save for a car! And save to take my family to Disney World again.

Good luck! And sorry for the delay, I was at a gaming convention. ^^;

I have been so busy with trying to find a job! I swear, it's really hard where I live. If you're not the perfect saint and love absolutely everyone and everything and never have a single bad thing happen and what not and the best perfect employee, no one wants to hire you. I was going to work at this really perfect job but EVERY TIME I called the number, it went to the answering machine. I even left a message and still NOTHING! And it would have been perfect, good money too for a single person! about 2,000 a month. It's by no means the best but for me, that's good money since I don't really have responsibilities.

Man, wish I could get a job like that, I only get about $800 a month and my job can be very depressing or bored.

Well, they never picked up the phone every time I called so I wasn't able to get it. Plus, I don't think it's in the area where I think it is. So, yeah. But I have three interviews lined up so, I hope I get one. Though I'm not looking forward to one because I heard there were a lot of druggies who work there and most of their customers look like they are on drugs.

Oh dear, that doesn't sound fun. o.o;

Hey! Finally got a new laptop since my old one busted. There was something wrong with the fan, it would make this horrid sound. There was nothing in the fan and there was no dust. And then it just went kaput. Took me forever to remember the name of this site because I just had it bookmarked so I didn't actually have to type in the name. Even though the name of the site is in big letters on top of the page so lol. Anyway, yeah, finally got a new laptop by surprise. My parents bought it for me as a late gift, or early gift since I was suppose to have gotten it for christmas but I told them to just not worry about it and to get my little brother whatever since I wanted to give him everything on his list. Which was over a $1000 worth of things. Heck the Ps4 was about $500.It was limited edition call of duty black ops 3 bundle. Plus a three year warranty, I think, I know I bought a warranty, just don't know for how long. But after a price match, it was brought down by 200-300 dollars. But yeah, he got a lot of high priced items. But they just kept forgetting about it because you know, life happens lol. But now, I really needed one and they decided to go ahead and get it for me. It's a huge upgrade from my previous one since my old one I had for about 5 years and was a windows vista. So yeah lol. And it's about 10 pounds lighter. My old one is so heavy, I could barely lift it without loosing my grip with one hand. It's like as heavy as a huge textbook.

My old laptop was heavy too, and I got a newer one because mine was getting old. Maybe the laptop being moved jostled the fan and it was getting jammed or misaligned?

Maybe, though really the only time I would move it would be to place it on my lap. I never really took it out of my room. But there were other problems with it besides the fan. Like for some reason, it couldn't find the battery, even though it was plugged in so I constantly had to keep my laptop plugged. I can go a few minutes without it crashing. And yet the battery sign on the laptop was green which meant that it was being charged but on my screen, it says battery not identified. And the fan was loud in general which made listening to anything without headphones impossible. It was just getting very old. But if someone knows how to fix computers, they could probably get it to run a lot better again. It is a tad slow but it's still a very useable laptop if the fan gets fixed because I think that's what's wrong with it. Well I know the fan needs to be fixed but it should run again once it does. But I thought it was going to blow up on me when I first heard the fan go haywire. It sounded like there was something in it but from what I could tell, there was nothing.And it's downright impossible to open it up to check the fan, way too many screws to undo and I honestly didn't want to bother. Though I will miss it to some extent because it was my first laptop. It was for college. And my parents bought it for me, like they bought this one for me since I never have enough money to get it. And I treasure everything they buy me. I would feel really guilty otherwise. But I do love this new laptop loads better! My videos don't freeze up after a minute of watching! And I can actually watch Nostalgia Critic on viemo I think that's what it is, the new thing that he uses to upload videos. With my old one, I couldn't watch it, I had to wait until they came out to youtube which would be a day later.

Yeah, laptops wear out pretty quickly, so its bound to happen.

Yeah. But I'm really happy that my parents surprised me with a new one. I wasn't expecting that at all! And I love it! I can actually watch videos so I have been watching a TON of anime and other shows!

lol, don't blame you. XD If you don't mind ads too much Crunchyroll has good video quality on their site, and an account is free to keep track of the episode you're on. Just some shows are premium only or the newest episode for the first day or two are premium only.
