Lawlz @ Buzz because he's right.

Well, actually, two things.
And I want to get this out there now because I'm starting to feel guilty about it.

1. Eiki sent me money. Quite a lot in fact. The only thing that is ailing my guilt is that he commissioned me for some stuff that I believe makes up for it. Hopefully. HOWEVER, with this money, I bought a network adapter card, so I can steal illegal internetz.

2. Surprisingly, on around the same day of the EIkiFunding, my mom told me my grandma gave me money so I could pay for food or whatever. But she wouldn't tell me how much. Since a magical deposit wasn't made into my account that I could see, I could only imagine my mom was hiding the amount because it was a lot and she thought this amount was unfair.

3. I applied for 7/11 at this time. Later, I went to georgia. My mom bought me lots of stuff at some out of business sales and they are like omgwhoa <333 I should be learning Flash + ColdFusion + XML for making dynamic flash websites soon. But anywayz, that's not the point. (omg <33 anyway)

7/11 called me back today and I'm supposed to meet with the boss guy the day after easter to talk about some job oppertunities. Nothing is guaranteed, it's just a talk, but stil. <33
And regardless, this guy is cool. I'm going to see if we can become friends or something.

4. I managed to squeeze out the amount my grandma gave me. $100. This is probably going to go towards a car. Or the money Eiki gave me that was supposed to be for food instead of my internet addiction. (free money really complicates things)

5. I have to do some budgeting/accounting while I'm here but I'm procrastinating like whoa. I need to put like half my assets on ebay/half.com, but also figure out how much I've sold in the past and pay my mom for sending the s**t since she's now basically my shipping monkey employee thing. Which is sadly where the grandmom's money's probably going to go.

6. I found a car for $700. It looks decent. I haven't called the guy yet because my brother hasn't had time to hang out with me while I do it. I know nothing about cars so yeah, it'd be really stupid if I called up the guy and go "Sooooyeah.... Anything wrong with it..." And just trust the guy on the other end. AHAHAidiotness.

7. This internet gig thing I've been keeping under wraps is actually going to happen. It is a paid gig I got over gaia (liekwhoa yay? <3) and will be hitting me sometime in July. The only problem with this is that I have to use Avid. Which I don't know how to use yet.
ON THE TO DO LIST! -fweeesh!-

All in all, it's kind of working out on it's own, but on the other hand, it's not because I'm trying harder (well, except for the 7/11 thing). I've just been getting a lot of breaks (Eiki, my grandma, this gaia thing FOR THE FUTURE...).

I'd like to make a note that I never asked for hand outs, I always wanted to do something FOR the money, and I also refused Eiki many times.

But what's done is done now. Thank you muchly Eiki. I haven't gotten my hair cut yet but it should happen soon, and that stuff will be done in a few weeks...

To everyone: Please don't hate me! I've never asked for handouts. This was a rant I wanted to get out and it turned into something much more. But thank you.

However, since I still have no regular income I'd still love to do real comissions for cash.

edit: And I may be "in the clear" for now, but as soon as/if I get the/a car, I'll be even worse off than I was before.
(But at least with a car I have a higher success rate of solving all the problems on my own)
