New Job


Hey everyone. Well, I finally got a job! Yay, I'm no longer unemployed! I'm currently working at the Idaho University bookstore.I do like it too; the employees are super nice, it's really easy, and I'm moving tons of stuff and walking a lot so I'm sure I'll get really buff! The only thing is, it has got to be one of the most boring jobs ever!
There's not a lot of variety in a job like this. I'm either putting price tags on stuff, organizing clothes, moving stuff, or cashiering. Every now and then I find myself going slightly crazy and have to find ways to distract my brain. It wouldn't be so bad if they played some music, but the head honcho has been pretty stern on the no-music rule. I'm not sure why it is that way, but I won't argue. So, often times I'll find that I'm humming to myself without even realizing it!
Having a job like this really gives you a lot of time to think though. And, I am glad I have it. I've actually made quite a few friends, and it's nice to know that I'm actually DOING something now, rather than sitting around, web-surfing all day! (although, I do still spend a good amount of time online once I get home from work! Youtube has become my new best friend these days!)
Anyway, that's about it. Not a whole lot else has happened. Oh, I got a new haircut a little while ago. I kindof have bangs now, and it's pretty strange. It took some getting used to! I really like it though, I needed something different.

If I could have any Superpower...

I was thinking about it this morning, and of course my first request was the ability to fly! That'd be so amazing. Then of course, I thought "well, what about being invisible?" because then I could sneak into all sorts of movies and concerts, and follow people. All that good, fun stuff. I would probably be playing pranks on people nonstop! Then, after I thought a little longer and realized what the ultimate superpower for me would be.
If I could choose any superpower, it'd be the ability to distinguish truth from lies. I'm not quite sure what you'd call that. Would it be mindreading?? Anyway, I think I'd choose that because then I'd really know what people think of me, and what they really want to say, but are too chicken to just do it.
I do realize that this power might in fact be a terrible thing to have, considering I might find out something about someone I'd rather not know. But, I think it's a risk worth taking. After all, I'd rather know all the nasty things people think about me, and be able to change because of them, (or tell them to screw off and die, whichever better suits the occasion) than be oblivious to their feelings.
Kindof an odd post, but I just thought ya'll should hear about it.
