Yeah, when I saw this place was a crucible of arts I had to at least check it out. I dabble in pretty much everything, But my strength is in Charcoal drawing and Painting. Others and myself consider me quite good lol.

My husband and I are both out of work, we owe tons of money, I'm sick, and winter's coming. All his friends bailed on him, I am 3000 miles away from anyone I can trust, and our parents are all gone.
My MTGO username is just "Alacar" if anyone wants to poke me on there. I have mostly M11 cards. Cracked 2 Platinum Angels, 1 Jace Beleren and 1 Sun Titan already. Sealed deck is my favorite format, methinks.
So anyone around here in school? What are some of the majors floating around?
English major, with certification in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). I spent two years teaching in Japan. I'm hoping to go back; that's what I'm trying to do right now.
Hey Stuff, it's great to see ya in here.. So i have some bad news... I got rejected for the Department of Defense job.. HOWEVER , i DID get a job at the local corn maze- that's temporary however, and i have NO idea how much I'll be making just yet.. My first day is Friday.
I also need to fly home for 2 1/2 weeks to help my mother recover from a hysterectomy procedure to remove some precancerous cells from her uterus.. so I'm going to be taking care of her while she recovers from that.. A lot of stuff kind of came down on my head all at once, sooo yeah.. Fun.
Good luck with the first day, Danica. Myself, I have to work today, tomorrow, and Saturday from afternoon to closing of the store. It's not great work, but it's a decent paycheck. And I am only working part time. It works for me right now.
Sorry to hear about your not getting the DoD job, or your mom's procedure. Total suckage. I hope she recovers swiftly and effectively, and that all of the precancerous cells are removed.
Sorry to hear everyone having such crappy lives lately.
I learned a bit of additional bad news, our roommate who skipped out on us actually went a step further. He lied to a mutual friend of ours, who asked him point blank 1 month ago, are you going to move out.
that friend would have taken our spare room, and paid us rent for it.
Instead, the roommate told the friend he was not moving out, and the friend had to go and sign up for a separate apartment he can barely afford. Later on, he admitted to lying about it because he wanted to make sure we "paid the price" for not supporting him. And also added that he "wanted to protect" the friend from our "bad faith". Which didn't console the friend any, and pissed my husband off mightily.
The only "bad faith' agreement we had with him was when he asked us to give up our right to park our bikes in the hallway. he wanted us to put them downstairs.
Fellow Coffeehouse peeps, I am in need of a new cellphone. I know what I want and would like to know if any of you have the phone I want for trade/sale.
The phone I want is: (One of 3 actually)
Blackberry Bold 9700
HTC Aria
HTC HD2 (unlocked)
If any of you have one of those and want to get rid of it, PM me please.

Eeeesh. What a tool!
I would take him to civil court and sue his ass. For something. Talk to a lawyer and see if you can get restitution or something.
It's been almost a month since anybody posted, thought I'd pop in and say hello to everybody I've been in Oregon for 3 weeks, just got back on Sunday, and I start working again at the corn maze tomorrow and Saturday... and I'm applying for a bunch of other jobs, so we'll see how it all goes... I'm trying to work through my novel and finish it before I have to start a new one for NaNoWriMo... Also, trying to get the wheels moving to start graduate school in library science... In order to do that, I need to take my GRE... In order to do THAT, I need to study for it.... on top of writing my book, prepping for my new book, applying for jobs, and working at the corn maze...

I guess that's an American thing to do.
