just an abnormal girl living in a normal world.

Yeah, I know I’m bad up updating my blog, but if you follow me on twitter or facebook you know mostly everything that’s going on in my life as is.

Well let’s see.

Wednesday, I had my Airport Assessment for the TSA job, and I passed it!

I thought I was going to fail the interview part quite honestly. The questions were long and I have a short attention span and it seemed like I was always getting off topic.

I got my medical packet, which I can’t open so I don’t know what’s inside besides the cup I have to pee in.

My medical appointment is on the 7th of September and it wasn’t until after I made the appointment I realized that I can’t really party hard labor day weekend. CRAP. I’ll survive though, I didn’t have anything planned anyway.

Got laid off from the census and now I’m back at the bookstore for now.

If they don’t keep me at the bookstore, I’ll just collect unemployment until this whole TSA process is over with and I finally get to start.

I have to pass the medical and the background check and then afterwards I get placed in the ready pool and from there when they have enough people to start a training class, I’m in.

So until later, toodles.

Ok, so what’s been up?

I graduated, well I walked.

Still working at the Census.
It has it’s good days and it’s bad days, but it’s a pay check until I can get a permanent job.

I took the computer based test to be a Transportation Security Officer at the airport and I passed recently.
So the next step is the credit check. I’m pretty sure that I’m going to pass that.
From what I’ve read online, it can be a lengthy process.

My co-worker took the test also and passed, so hopefully we’ll be in a training class together!

So hopefully I pass all the steps and get this job.

Everyone keeps telling me that it’s not in my major or I’m not using my degree, but honestly, I just want to pay my loans off. I don’t see my self starting my dream job anytime soon.

I’m making progress on my to do list up there.
Next week is my final payment to my citicard!

My credit score is finally good enough for an AMEX card!
I applied for 2 and got approved for both (don’t ask!), but I don’t need 2 of them so when they come I’ll just cancel 1.
I know it’s bad to cancel cards, but there’s an annual fee and I don’t need to waste money on the annual fee when I’m not using the card.
Or maybe I’ll keep them both and just lower the credit limits on them. Who knows!

I’m working on getting a car now.

That’s about it for me, nothing else amazing has happened as of yet.

The census is still… well senseless.
But can’t complain much it’s incoming income as opposed to no income at all.
Haven’t heard back from the hospital that I interviewed for a month ago.

I worked out a debt repayment system for my credit card.
I was bored at work on saturday.
I have about 8 different options.
The soonest I can have my card paid off is July, the latest is November.
I just want to go into 2011 with only my student loans to worry about essentially.
Which reminds me, my first loan payment is July 23rd.
I’ve had about a million reminders about them lol.
I put in an application to consolidate my loans, but they won’t start processing the application until 45 days before my grace period starts, or something like that.

Dominique got me into watching these shows about people in debt.
So now we’re just concentrated on paying off our debt as quickly as possible.

I essentially want all my loans paid off before I move out of my mom’s house, but ideally that’s not going to happen.
Also, when I move out, I don’t want to rent, I want to own.

I should take a picture of my credit card repayment plan lol.

I’m obsessed with this money stuff, I’m thinking about making a budget.
I’m not to sure how much I’d actually adhere to it, but I can’t say that I didn’t try right?

Well that’s about it for now.
I’ll try to update by the end of the month.

So my second week there went alright.
Altered my weekend schedule so I can actually get 40 hours.
I finally got paid today, I wish they didn’t take out so many taxes.
I wish I had a pay stub so I could tell how much they took out.
I feel with this job I can actually put a dent in my credit card debt, possibly pay if off if they keep my longer than 2 months.

Nothing exciting really happens, well not during my shifts.
I start at 12:30, everyone else leaves at 5:30, so I’m usually sitting around by myself just incase the phone rings until 9.
Can’t complain though, it’s easy money.

I have the next 2 days off so I’m gonna lay around and do nothing.

As I’ve heard a few people refer to it as…

All I can say is that I pretty much hate it.
I had one day of random training, then I get thrown in the pack to be devoured.
Now, I work the second shift (12:30-9), but after 5 when the manager leaves, if there’s nothing to do you sit there and twiddle your thumbs.
They are so unorganized to the point where I want to scream!

Maybe the phone will ring in our department, MAYBE.
Friday night the phone didn’t ring not once.
Saturday afternoon, the phone rang like 3 times, but it was all about the same problem.
I assume everything got fixed because no one called back.
So that was my action for my actual first 2 days at the office.
I didn’t stay til 9 though because the office closed at 4.
I’m pretty sure that t’mrw is going to be boring as hell also especially because it’s Sunday.
You’re not supposed to be texting at your desk, but everyone does it.
This guy in my department had his headphones on listening to music, I’m not going to chance that just yet, maybe next week.

I got a book from the library so I won’t die of boredom.

A lot to learn from this lady.

Blah, May 15 will be here before I know it, hopefully the money I make here I can pay off my credit card (or at least make a huge dent).
Maybe I’ll start to like it better, I mean it’s only a week, but first impressions are always the lasting ones.

Tuesday our manager said she was going to take us to BBQs.
That’ll be fun.

There’s a lot more I would like to say, but since I was sworn to an oath and what have you, I don’t want to risk saying something then the government comes and tracks me down lol.
But there are some times when mannnnn, it’s so hard as yall know I’m a very opinionated person and if I see something not pleasing to my eye or just hilarious I have to let everyone know.

Well I start at 8:30 t’mrw, the paper says 9-5:30, but the office hours are 8:30-5… so I’m gonna show up at 8:30.
