Diary of Goddess: Life Lessons Learned

I started this blog in HS, when I was this materialistic, but saying I wasn't materialistic first to start a blog and thought my life was so fab since all I did was school, shop, & friends. Fast forward 4 years later, I became this college student that realized that college life wasn't like the movies and MY struggle began...Some 10 years from HS and here I am, living my dream of going to law school, bringing a whole new meaning to MY struggle…

No. 86

Crossroads

Well, definitely Britney is on the crossroads of acting and singing. She's decent I have to say, it wasn't as bad as "O," and if you haven't seen the movie, you'll have to see it, the acting during the most crucial parts makes me laugh, not cry or feel angry- was quite appalled. Decent, but I felt kinda bad paying 6 bucks matinee to see it, a bit of a rip-off, but it was decent, the guy made up for it. Definitely had a lot of emotional parts that were quite emotional sans that faux pas stuff.

Bally Salespeople

So, I realized the main idea why i'm not a salesperson. Why I could never do it, besides the fact that my idea of folding is more like, either hanging it up or do the tuck and roll. I witnessed that these sales people at the loathsome Bally really suck, no wonder they're going out of business. The store was geared towards old people like my folks who enjoy the classic lines of style, then they realized that they need to be trendy, throwing in some orange-yea that's what I was thinking, and then trying to outfit a new line that was totally in their eyes "hip." PULEEZE, well now it's over and they're going down and never gonna be missed. It's just bad PR work, they've got these twenty somethings that don't know shit about the stuff trying to sell it, nor has the product gone totally down. They are no support arches nor are there any various shoe widths left. Usually if you pay for a show that over 300 bucks, you're at least expecting a support arch and variety of sizes of A-D right. No, there aren't any. The salespeople are so stupid and they try to make it like, "no one needs support arches these days." WHAT IS UP WITH THAT? You're telling me that support arches do nothing for you're feet and there's only the normal size, W, and N. WTF, it's called high end shoes if you will, I don't really like the term, but it's what it is, and they're marketing it like Wal-Mart. They're all like, buy one and it's half off, buy three and it's 75% off. Is it some lotto or something? Afterwards how the lady tried to explain that no one needs support arches, my dad was saying it's simply preposterous and the lady walked away and gave this other salesattendant this look like "ugh..." I was just like, that's the reason why you'll always be a salesattendant in you're twenties and nothing else. You'll never make it in life, then she wants more of my dad's comments or something that make her feel horrible and talks to him again about other shoes. God, how can some women be so stupid, after someone has verbally bashed you, you might consider to stay away right? Wrong...

'Rents saw some friends today...

It quite appalls me how people on different levels see you live and think they can't hang with you until they have what you have. So this guy who knows my dad was at the same restaurant. They're not on our level on in life, they talk, and then we eat. Then he comes over and is like, yea we're getting a C230- Mercedes that is, he thinks the only reason he can hang and visit us is because now he has a Mercedes, which automatically makes him in our league or something. I don't think so, first off, no one can be in our level, it's acquired, and he doesn't cut it. Secondly there is no C230, there is a C240. No Chinese whose superstitious ever buys the C240 unless they want to die early, in Chinese, 24 means easily dead, no one wants a car with that reminder, that's why they'd buy the C320 because it's 32 means easily young. Quite amusing, it's as if those people think they'll be all that driving a Mercedes and it automatically makes them elite. You can't buy elitism, it just comes as it is, and they aren't it. They're just chasing something that will never be caught.

It really sickens me.

I look at some people and wonder is that what they're life is really like. I mean, some of the girls are totally consumed with Pop culture, it's great, but they let they're cell phones attached to their ears for so long, that the cancer has permantely reached they're brains and is spreading. I also wonder how i've read these diaries about these total posers or how they envision they're life to be, and it occurs in the state of washington, actually on this coast where I live and it really sickens me. If they do have what it takes it's great, but it saddens me that I see them use it so ineffectively. It saddens me how they envision they're lives to have no substance, and how they think material possessions are gods. I mean, I always guessed it'd happen somewhere in the states, but I had no idea that there were actually ones in this state. Call me naive or what have you, but you'd think this state's all about getting back to nature and totally becoming Taoist Emerson Zen like right? Well, I think this state has the same population if no more of a population of all those hoodlums you see on 20/20 when they do those "Teen Research" projects. There's this girl in Crossroads, her name is Kit and she's totally the quinessential girl type sorta that exists in WA, but 10 times worst. It saddens me, I just don't know what to say. I guessed that the world isn't consumed by greed, but I realize it is, and probably teens are the worst since we've been hit with all these media aids to help us become better consumers. Tangent: What also consumes me is that some lady whose like 30 years old can't buy a Louis Vutton. See, it's people like me make it horrendous for anyone buying fake brands. No one should do it, either you buy the real thing, or find something else. I do distaste how everyone tries to buy the rip offs both in fake brands and also in designs. There's Coach, see Coach makes these patterned Gucci Hobo bag, but of course it isn't Gucci. I see those people who buy the Coach as having no taste at all, it seems that they want the Gucci, but can't afford the 1,000 dollar price tag, so decided to be the 250 bucks of crap from Coach. All they want is the print, while true people would buy quality. Same with the fake brands, they think they can pull it off, but they're wrong, to some people, "yes, they can, " but to most like myself, they can not. One may say that the hardest is spotting a fake Louis Vutton, sure since the pattern is the same, but one would know that the material goes vertical one the fakes and horizontal on the real ones, also one look at the workmanship and the clasps tells all baby. It saddens me that they'd try to pull it off and think they're so cool. Then again I look at myself and ask what has become of me and why do the fuck do I care so much? The reason being, i'm not conceited and saying that it's just a faux pas, it really is, but the deal is that all these people aspire to have all this that is so meaningless and they never succeed, it's like the American dream isn't achievable, it just leads to death. It saddens me is because why can't people just live on their own level instead of wanting more and more and trying to be like Britney or J.Lo, or Brad Pitt and Jennifer? I just don't get it, yea they're totally glam, but that's all. It's not like they have these really cool things that no one else can have besides materalistic items. They're just the same, they just live on a different level. Also, it's like when you want something so bad you're dying if you don't have it, but when you get it, you want more. To me, that's one of the sickest things that can happen. How was this brought about, realizing that Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blonde had the coolest set of braclet and necklace heart tags. I got the set, but it was just the circular ones, and now I still don't feel that oh so glam i'm the potential Reese on the move in Washington and damn i'm so cool it makes me such a better and elite person then you feeling. It just doesn't do it for me, so even though knowing yes, "let me get on my 747 plane," would give me no effect besides man, i'm playing 50 g's for fuel, damn straight.

I feel evil, I didn't make my bed today! HEHE
