what's going on now!!!

Well here lately I've thought maybe I should go to job corps. Its a government thing you can go there and learn a trade and afterwords they give u about 1200 bucks and help you get a job but to be totally honest theres a catch, theres a waiting list and just for you to get a chance it takes about a year or half a year just to get a chance.. I'm 19 years old I still live with my mom... which isnt a bad thing I just want dont want to sit around the house or clean it because I've got nothing else to do ... So here i am making a commiment the first thing on my list is get a job , then the next while i still have my job I'm going to start learning to drive being 19 now and 20 in just two months I've got to GET A GAME PLAN OR SOMETHING. Then the 3rd thing I'm going to do is take a part in some kind of bills and save money up to buy a used car.. and while I'm doing all this I'm going to go college ... so I hope I'm doing this the right way I've got to start doing this grown up stuff....so i am.

How Hard Is It To Find A Job!!!

Remember when all those times our mothers took us to a store and we saw something that we really wanted and we would tell them...whats the one word they always tell you?GET A JOB!! I'm recently a high school graduate and I've been applying all around where i live for jobs its so ridiculous and when i go to the places that I've applied for there's people in there who can never get it right and that's probally the people they want. my second oldest brother is helping me and our mom with getting a job at wal mart. If i do get the job i want to be able to work during the day and my mom wants to be able to work at night which means less customers. some of my friends are always blaming it on the goverment which i belive is the source of the promblem.people i know are losing there business and are now going jobless. ugh i just wish america would get back on its feet again...

bragg ghost road!! ohhh spooky!!


I Have a question..? Have you ever heard of place called Bragg ghost road? I Have, the first time i ever heard of it was from my old friend Evonne. The road was built over a railroad track back in the 1900's . I've heard that the saratoga ghost light was from a hunter who was killed in woods,a girl being raped,a man lost his head and he carries a lantern and wonders up and down the road looking for it, many stories. there is to be told that there is a Spanish grave yard and all the men were killed by there boss and there buried there. I've been to the ghost road about five times the first time i went i saw the light,and let me tell you it was pretty scary. i wasn't scared it was just weird to see something that amazing. i went three more times and didn't really see nothing, last time i went and i swear that on my grave that something looked like a person but had a big bump almost in its back and the color looked like a clear cloudy foggy thing. It came out of the woods and crossed the road my moms boyfriend just happen to see it go into the woods in the corner of his eyes and he believes me. my brothers have gone out there and seen it as well. also there friends. I've learned that people all over come to see it they travel from Dallas,from Galveston,from Florida you name it. i posted a picture of from when i went and i'm going to post a link to the video from other peoples experience.

A Plus Sized Girl In A "0" sized world....

How Hard Do you think it is to lose weight? For me it's hard you get that point of encouragement and you start to work out then it fills like you have the whole world on your shoulders and then fall back into old habits. I have a hard time losing weight because i want to see results in two weeks and i know it doesn't work that way but i lose encouragement fast and i stop working out. I start thinking that theres no point to working out and start eating junk food, drinking sodas,being lazy around the house, thats an habit i have that, i really do need to get rid of. I'm very weird about things i know its very good to sweat when you work out but i cant stand being hot,i hate going outside period. i think for now im going to take my purple tiger pills so that i can have the energy to clean house and maybe i will go out to my garadge to work out ... i need advice how to avoid the bad foods/liquids ... but i dont know how too.
