2009/09/17 21:45 Shiiit it's been a while since I've written on this business.
I'm currently in culinary school and I love it. I helped cater a wedding with the school last weekend, and it was a shitload of fun. I love to cook, and being on my feet for 12 hours gave me a taste of what the business is like, and I liked it a lot. It was tiring and hard, and I didn't get to eat that whole day until I got home at about 9:30, but I would do it again if I had the chance. Only way it could've been better is if I got paid, but I got to learn stuff that I won't learn in class for a while. My only problem with my school is the amount of wasted food. And the fact that absolutely nothing is vegan... but it's really good to be learning the techniques. And I'm almost certainly going to have to cook meat when I get a job, so I can't really bitch about it. I just don't get down with that shit.
I'm getting my driver's license finally on October 16th. If I pass the test on my first try, that is. I don't really expect to drive much once I have it though.
I worked at a stop&shop for a few months. Hated it, but I was a great employee. Too good. They kept noticing how assertive I was and kept training me in other departments. I quit so I could go to school because when I worked there in high school they would schedule me during school and I knew they'd keep doing it to me.
I had a girlfriend for a few months and she dumped my ass about a week ago.(catered the wedding the day after, which made me feel like shit. would've felt worse if I wasn't busy)
I picked up playing the banjo recently... I just know a few chords so far, but I'm loving it so far.
I also started collecting records, because I'm hip as fuck. Now my money's basically all gone. I need a job because of it, and yesterday I applied at a local sport's bar as a line cook.
Really bad at writing entries on this, but I'm starting again.

2009/03/19 16:13 I put riser bars on my bike. I love them. I rode my other bike that still has drop bars on it and almost fell over because I got so used to riding the one with risers. Can't even get out of the saddle to ride up a hill anymore. Boner killer.
I have a mustache now. It is excellent.
I was doing great. Past couple of days have sucked though.

| 2009/02/24 15:28 My friend set up my bike trainer for me so I can ride in the house. It rules. It's absolutely mardi gras today. I got a lot of music from a friend and put it on my phone. I'm stoked for that. I got some good folk punk and power violence, which rules. And skacore kind of stuff. I'm not all that into that stuff, but whatever, I'll give it a chance. This weekend is my eagle ceremony. I'm having family in town... and I'm not stoked for that because it means I have to clean in the house, and then I'm going to have to deal with my aunts and uncles questioning all of my life decisions. "why are you vegan? why don't you have a job? why don't you shave? why why why?" I expect it'll be my uncle's wife to say most of that. She's really just a bit of a bitch, and likes to point out how flawed I am. And the things she likes to point out really just aren't real flaws. Being vegan in no way inconveniences anyone.

2009/02/21 16:17 I got new shoes yesterday! They were 8 dollars at Goodwill. They're pretty much brand new, and I'm stoked about them. They're comfortable, and the treads are re-used car tires, which is really cool to me. They're really slick, but I don't really notice it making walking any different at all. They were cleaned up, so they squeaked on the wood floor in my house until they got a little dirty and now it's totally fine. They'll be great to ride my bike in. The pictures that I attached are shamelessly ripped off of an ebay auction... They're the only pictures I could find of these particular shoes.
That's probably a little too much excitement just for some shoes.
I got some color put on my penguin on Thursday, and I have my last session scheduled for Sunday, March 8th. I'm stoked for them to be done. I was talking to my tattoo artist and I told him that once I'm out of culinary school I'm going to harass him to take me as an apprentice. The shop just rules. Their current apprentice is straight edge, which is cool to me, because it's really not very common nowadays. (or at least I assume he is, because he was wearing a Casey Jones hoodie and was really interested in a shirt I mentioned that was anti-drugs. I really dig the way that they are going about teaching that dude about tattoos. They have him draw like 5 pages of roses or 5 pages of skulls, just to get his skills down, and they're having him read books about the classic tattoo artists, like Sailor Jerry, and they're having him do book reports and stuff on it. I really like that they're having him actually learn about it rather than just hurry up and get to tattooing like I'm sure most of the other shops around here do. That's how I want to learn. Hopefully I can in a few years.
