It turns out that I did get the job at the movie theather! That's really cool. I decided to not take the job at the othre restaurant. I'm just going to work at the theater and my old restaunt. I'm excited about both. I start training in a few days for the theater. I will probably get to start work at the restaurant in early June. So I still have a weekend to do whatever I want without having to schedule anything in. I met three other people that I might work with. One of the girl's name was Sarah. She and I became friends pretty fast. She's a super perky, nice, 15 year old morman girl. lol. Well, hopefully we can be friends, at work, if I don't scare her too much.
Warning- psychoanalytical ranting:
I wanted to do something to celebrate me getting a job. I couldn't get a hold of my good friends though, and I didn't really feel like hanging out with my other friends (either they are really wild, literally crazy, too busy, ect). I kind of wish that I had more friends here. I have a couple jobs now, hobbies, classes to take, and some volunteering options- to keep me busy. So boredom isn't really the problem. I just wish that I had people to go to concerts with, movies, downtown, shopping, etc. (No offense to my friends here, now. It's just that I wish that there were more of you). I wish that I had more friends that I had a lot in common with. I met some cool people last year, downtown, who had the same political/philisophical ideas, the same hobbies, and we had a lot of stuff to talk about, that I don't really get to talk about with my other friends here. But I was too shy to really become their friend. I think that is what I really want- people that I can talk to about stuff that I can't talk about with my friends here (feminism, sociology, psychology, spirituality, sewing and crafts lol, grassroot politics, philosophy, folk music, conspiracies lol, political/social movements, etc. I love that stuff. I can talk about quite a few of those things with people from school, but not everything (I love my friends from school- I could talk to them about just about anything (especially Sean), I had a lot more in common with them too. So this mostly just applies to people here. Although few people back there truely enjoyed interior decorating or folk music nearly as much as I do. lol). I knew that there would be a lot more people in the city that would want to talk about those things and that are different like that. I want friends here that don't bring me down so much, and that I don't feel I have to sensor myself around either. I want friends that I can be more wacky with and they won't think that I'm insane. I don't know who I'm going to take to the concert this summer. It's such an awesome, hippy, feminist concert- I really want to go with someone who would enjoy it and not someone who would go to humor me (although if I do ask you to go with me and humor me- please do, that means I've changed my mind and I'd rather have someone humor me than go alone). I think Keli was bored last time and sat politely and watch it like it was tv, and my brother has to get drunk for every concert. I was grateful that Keli wanted to go to the concert just b/c I didn't want to go alone. But I felt like I couldn't really enjoy it b/c I had to be polite and calm and couldn't really get into it (I'm to shy to get that into it, but it would have been nice to be able to relax a little bit). I know that's mostly my fault- I totally feed off of her self consciousness (and my own), and I get really shy in big groups and I hate to dance in public. But I did have a lot more fun when I went with Cara (she thought I was being uptight, and encouraged me to not worry so much). I'm not looking to be encouraged to have fun, I just want to know that I can have fun there and that they won't mind and they'll have fun too. I'm not expecting much- I just want to cheer, dance a little if I'm not too shy, talk to wierd people, and be able to show that I'm excited about the concert. I know that it's my issue, and my shyness has a lot to do with it. I care too much what my friends and strangers think about me. I don't know. I'm thinking about selling the second ticket and going alone. Maybe then I wont have to act the way people expect me to act (my issue too, I know) and I wont have to keep explaining things to them (like why the scary hippy people aren't really that scary, and how second hand pot smoke isn't immoral to breath). I feed off of other people's energy a lot of times. It would be cool to go with someone laid back and really into the music. You know how you can get really excited about something if the other person is too, or really hyper if the other person is too?- that's what I'm thinking. Ok now I'm repeating myself- I'll stop babbling and pscyhoanalysing. Did I mention that I'm a sociology and psychology major? lol.
