Jitters And Job Hunting Fun

Jitters And Job Hunting Fun

Happy March first everyone. Is it a holiday? No. Today I went to a place where they help you find a job. The job search is really bumming me out. There are web jobs, but you need years of experience and you need to know ASP, .net, java, you name it companies want you to know it. Fortunately, the guy who is helping me now has told me some good news and some bad news. Good news, I don't have to be a master at these computer languages. Bad news, (which isn't really bad, but very time consuming.) I have to study these cute little languages. He said it would be good just to be somewhat familiar with it. More good news, he said he liked what he saw on my resume. I sent an e-mail version for him and he sent it back saying he "changed it." Before I had "OBJECTIVE" and "SUMMARY", but he changed those to "Personal." Hmm, oh well. I guess he knows what the companies he works for want. Right? >_>;

After I visited Mr. Jobman I went to a coffee place a few blocks away called Jitters. I had always wanted to go there and see what it was like and I have to say it was fun. It was a cozy, lazy atmosphere and the Jitters employees seemed real friendly. You can tell that there are definitely regulars. It was such a neat little place and I would love to go there with you people, my friends sometime. I suggest not getting the French roast brew if you really do not like bitter tasting coffee. Whew!!! ^_^ However, I enjoyed it black with a chocolate chip cookie. I'm so weird that way. Some things I like better without stuff added to it. For instance, green tea, I hate it with anything sweet in it. I like it better straight. *shrugs* Do you think I'm killing my taste buds? *laughs*

I saw Phantom of the Opera. It was a good movie, but I really wanted to slap Christine and Raoul. I can't compare it to the book, or the musical so I can't tell you how close it came to either of them. There were scenes when I wondered, "Isn't she cold???" Christine at one point was in the snow with what looked like a light cloak and her chest was totally exposed. I wanted to shout, "Dude, put a sweater on! *points* Seriously, you are going to get something!" The Phantom was a cool character and you felt bad for him. ^_^ Grey villians rule da opera hizous! And Jae, thank you for the word "chandesquished."

Constantine was a fun movie to watch. Gabriel had sweet pants with strings laced up the calf of the legs. I want pants like that! Strings and bobbles on anything is cool. *nods* *SPOILER!* Ok, I don't know if this is a spoiler, or not, but one thing I would have changed about the movie would have been Satan. Satan was a middle aged man with a hint of a southern accent. O_o Huh? I would have made him all suave and sexy, or really horribly ugly not in between. My reasoning behind this is Lucifer was one of the most beautiful angels in heaven and when God cast him out he made him a hideous freak. This is why I think they should have made him hawt, or freakishly ugly. My favorite character in that whole movie was Papa Midnight. I hope I didn't ruin too much of anything for those of you who haven't seen it.
