State of CT You Suck!

Warning: This is a total rant/bitchfest entry.....

Hi Y'all!! I've been slacking :( I've been dealing with some "drama" b/c I'm such a "worrier" I'm letting the drama get to me.... I'm really pissed at the State of CT DOL right now. A few weeks ago I got a letter stating that I "knowing made a false claim to receive unemployment insurance for the week ending Nov. 15th. " I was like no I didn't so I filled out the form stating that the info was incorrect and included copies of my time cards and paystubs (I keep everything).... I thought everything would be ok.....
So I get a letter on Tuesday stating that they reviewed my file and my "failure to request or attend a hearing blah, blah.. (I didn't request a hearing b/c I didn't think it was a problem b/c I filled out the form and sent copies of my stuff). THEY SENT ME AN MUTHAFING BILL!!!!!! They also will not give me the BENEFITS THAT I AM ENTITLED TO UNTIL I PAY THE BILL or they "deduct" it from my account. They also let me know that I "committed a MISDEMEANOR" & a bunch of BULLSH!@T legal crap and penalites that they want to charge me with. I didn't collect any money that was not owed to me! My last day of work was NOVEMEMBER 2, 2008!!!!!!
So I took my behind down to the office and tried my best not to act "ignat", because I'm mad as hell at this point! There are times and places to act "ignant" but seriously not a the Unemployment office... NO ONE CAN HELP ME!!! They sat me at dirty f-ing computer and had me fill out a form to appeal there decision (which I could of done from home)! The lady told me that if I need more assitance to go down the street to SOCIAL SERVICES!! Thanks b!tch! Do I look like I need FOOD STAMPS!!! I'm not HUNGRY I'm pissed!!! She also gave me list of places where I can get "free legal assistance".... I don't need a f-ing lawyer to say that my last day of work was Nov. 2nd and I didn't make a false claim for the week of Nov. 15th!!!
I'm not trying to play the system... I'm not trying to sit on my ass and collect. I've been working since I was 13 (babysitting, summer jobs)... I'm going to school FULL-TIME so when things get better I'll have that retarded peice of paper that makes me 'qualified' to do the same sh!t that I'm already doing.
I called my last employer and they are being really helpful with providing me with the info that I need to prove my last date of employement. Doesn't the DOL check with your employer when you open a new claim??? Why are we talking about some Bullsh!t that from NOVEMBER in JUNE!!! Get your sh!t straight CT!!! I've had nothing but bad luck from the moment I moved to CT.
I pray that my plans to move to ATL at the end of the summer pan out, b/c I have to get the hell out of here. It's like one thing after another....
Oh they sent me a check this week for $25!! The teller at the bank SMIRKED AT ME!!!! Seriously go fug yourself!!!! You work at the Savings Bank of Danbury, you aren't ballin'!!!! Then after he processed it and saw my balance it wasn't soo amusing!
People this is why you cannot depend on anything.... This is why I have savings for a rainy day!!! It's been raining for a while...
I knew things were looking bad a year ago and I pocketed all of my money in my savings account. So when I got laid off in August '08 I was ok... Then when I got laid off agian in Nov. '08 I was ok again. As much as I spend I make sure that I save!!!!
Thanks for listening! I'm going to go relax, eat some Strawberry Pocky edit some pics and be back later!

So What! Ten Years Later!

Hi Y'all! So I knew the the time was coming up... I'm not one for numbers but 1999 was 10 years ago.... It's been 10 years since I graduated HIGH SCHOOL! I'm pretty much content with my life but the damn "what have you been doing for the last ten years packet", made me feel a little empty inside when I first read it.
At first I didn't want to go... Mostly out of laziness, I'll have to drive down to Long Island, blah! But I've kept in contact with most of my "girls" and were turning it into a night out and have plans for after. It's an excuse to get my hair did and flaunt my makeup skills & bat my false eyelashes. Oh its open bar also.
Life is a series of milestones. Your first steps, first day of school, graduating high school, graduating college, getting married, having children & settling down. I tend to live my life out of order and in my own way. I wasn't one of those kids who knew what they wanted to do since they were a teenager. I pretty much figured it out within the last few years. Yeah I went to a great High School, I went to a good college for a little bit, messed up and was dragged home kicking & screaming, took some time off then went to another good school part-time & worked full-time.
I'm still pursuing my Bachelors Degree... If all goes as "planned" I will graduate in December 2010 with a degree in Business, Management & Economics with a Concentration in Marketing from Empire State College. I can't get down on myself because I didn't do it in 4 or 5 years like most of my peers. I've had the opportunity to hold down some awesome jobs in my field while pursuing my degree.
So what I'm not done yet, so what if I don't have a job at the moment, so what I'm single! I'm not going to let those things bother me.
So what I live with my parents. We moved here when I was 22 and still away at school. I know that CT is not where I want to plant myself permanatley and when I figure out where I want to go I'd rather stay at home and save up instead of spend money on a condo in a place where I have no intentions of staying.
I have no reason to look back at the last 10 years with regrets!

Me 10 Years Ago! Don't Sweat the braids w/ the highlights & my darkass lip liner & lipstick

So I thought I would have some fun with the "What Have You Been Doing" Paper...

Click to Enlarge

I was going to mail it back but my mom said something about it being inappropriate for a Catholic High School.....
All that matters is 10 years later I'm happy, healthy and my boobs are still perky!

Pity Party, Lonely, I'm Soo Lonely, 5 Random Kids?

Hi y'all! Sorry, this post isn't beauty related, it's a VENT/BITCH post....I'm in Syracuse, NY. Having a bit of a pity party for myself. I'm here because my Uncle passed away on Friday. The funeral was yesterday (Wed.). It was really hard because it brought back all of the memories from my Mommy Cat's funeral last Wed. My Mom had a really hard time getting in the limo and going in the church. We only buried Mommy Cat last week. I'm praying that next Wed. involves no funerals, no funeral clothes, & no limos. I don't think I ever want to ride in a limo again! Ok maybe on my wedding day, or maybe if I become Fabulous and take a limo to the airport :).
There is nothing for me to do up here :(. I miss being home, I miss my house, I miss my bed. It snowed yesterday for like 24 hours. The snow is up to my knees in my Aunt's backyard! Where does it all go when it melts? Actually I do have stuff to do up here, I need to STUDY!! I haven't really dove into the semester yet and I'm already behind in all 3 of my classes. I just read really slow. Actually I read hella fast, when it's a Chic Lit novel, or the new issue of Cosmo.
I haven't been to a STORE in days. Do you know what that's like for a retail addict? Pure hell.
I have one friend up here from college. We made plans for later to go to dinner at Red Robin. Maybe I can convince her to take me to the mall or some kind of store.
Ohh check this out! Apparently my Uncle Emo had some family members that I never knew about! Like 5 kids! Him and my Aunt Di (Diane) got married in 1981 (same year I was born). So my mother and I were trying to figure out where all these kids came from! They are all pretty much grown, but still. I never knew about them. Never saw pictures of them at their house. My Uncle usually spent Christmas and Thanksgivng with us in NY. I'm dumbfounded how my Uncle could have 5 kids and I never knew about. My mom and I did a "babies momma" count at the funeral, we think there are either 2 or 3 of them.
I got really fat too! All the "death" food I've been eating has been wonderful, but I've blown up like a ballon! I'm taking to much comfort in all the comfort food around me! I like knocked-up, like second trimester preggo. My belly is sticking out! My clothes are soo tight >_< Why can't I get fat all over? Like evenly distributed fat? It all goes to my face and belly. Not my arms, legs or booty, just my belly. I look like Santa Claus! I guess I'll get back on track when I get home which should be Saturday. I'm really going to have to watch what I put in my mouth. I've been eating fried chicken, breads, red velvet cake, regular cake, chicken wings, mac & cheese, pastas, non-diet soda... Oh soo naughty! I'm not even going to step on the scale I'd probably faint in shock. Eww my Dad just SNUCK OUT and went to the L.L. Bean Outlet Store. He's soo mean! Arghh, I wish he'd let me drive his car but no one can touch his X5. Didn't even want me and my mom eating in the car on the way up... But we did anyway! :P
Ok, ladies I'm out! I'm going to go try to find some way to entertain myself. Maybe I'll play in my makeup. I shouda brought lashes with me so I could practice applying them.

No Good Very Bad Day!

Today was BAD day. I mean BAD! It started last night when I received an e-mail from my school informing me that I was DE-REGISTERED for the upcoming term and my Financial Aid is now $0.00! WTF, the letter didn't explain why... So I freaked out, cried, threw a "fit" attempted to jump off the roof. My unusual drama... So I emailed the my school... So this morning I check my mail NADA. I call. They wouldn't let me speak to the Financial Aid Dept. b/c the info line knows all. To make a long story short I finally find out that they de-registered me b/c I got an INC (I took out extensions w/ was fine w/ my professors). Well the Financial Aid reads an INC as an F so they took my money! Since they took my aid away the tutition wasn't paid.... I can register and pay out of pocket, but I don't have $2,597.50. Tuition has to be paid in full during the now late registration period. No payment plan. The absolute and final day for late registration is next Friday the 16th. So I have 6 (actually 5, just finished one), papers/assignments to write, research, submit and get a a final grade for by the 16th! Impossible. Will my profs. grade them in time? Can my Financial Aid be reinstated, all by the 16th? I emailed my mentor, & my professors to see if they can help me out. I requested "placeholder" grades so I wont have INC No replies as of yet. I wrote 1 paper today. It's sh!t, really bad. I'm rushing. I wrote it out of my a$$, I'm ashamed to submit it. I didn't even use outside sources only the text. I pretty much need a miracle... I can't pay attention for sh!t so I probably could have pumped out 2 papers but I stared into space, organized my pens & hilighters, re-arranged my Hello Kittys, read my long blogroll............. I have serious focusing issues. I need to call my Dr. and see if I can go back on the ADD Rx. Only problem is that it made me mean and crazy, but I got a lot of shit done. Is there something herbal that I can take? I can't afford an Rx unless it's on the $4 Generic list @ Walmart..... I'm uninsured....Unemployed... I'm a mess y'all............. There is one little thing that would make me very happy right now. A present from Zales, it's only $795.00 Diamonds & Pink Sapphires......
I'm watching Rock of Love 3 the Bus (1st episode) on TiVo, those are some crazy plastic bitches.. I'm gonna watch b/c I'm a fool...... I'm also a VH-1 Celeb Reality junkie.
WTF- Like Plastic Much
Who really wants that? Seriously.......
He's no PRIZE
Well, hopefully tomorrow will come with some answers and I can get this straightened out.... Oh lawd, I have to go to school next term. I have no job, school is all I have......... Pray for me y'all. Please
