It’s hard being on my shoes :(

You probably don’t know how it feels to be in my shoes, or you probably do.  And if you do, then you know that it’s not a good feeling.  Here’s why I’ve been down lately.

1. I was surprised to find out that there are two pre-requisites that I need to take before I get into the nursing program.  And one of the pre-requisites is a pre-requisite of the other, you see what I’m saying?  So in short, it will take two semesters before I can get into the nursing course.  And the nursing program is a total of 5 semesters, so all in all, it’s 7 freakin’ semesters!  I might as well get into the BSN program and finish it in 8 semesters!  The only downside of enrolling into the BSN program is that after you graduate, you will be facing an average of $60,000 in student loan debt, and that is pretty scary for me.
2. I only have 7 days to study for the TEAS test because they didn’t tell me that I need to take that test.  Boy, I can’t tell you how pissed I am so I’m not going to say much about this.  Grrrrrrr!
3. I have applied for a caregiver job last April 5th and everything went pretty well during the interview.  She even registered a username and password for me to finish the modules online.  It has been weeks now and I still haven’t heard from them.  I wonder if I should call or not.  I keep telling myself that if it’s for me, then they will call.  And this is what you call “torture” in the truest sense of the word.
4. I got 2 consecutive phone interviews and everything went pretty well.  Finally, after the second interview, they invited me for a face-to-face interview.  Okay, so this should make me feel good, but this job is at the Food and Nutrition Service department and my long-term career goal is to become an RN.  What if they want somebody who would stay in that department and not just somebody who is passing by?  Would they like it if I say that, “Oh this is just a temporary job for me, I only applied because I need to support my nursing schooling, and as soon as I become an RN, then I would leave this job forever.”  Pretty honest, but I’m pretty sure that I won’t get hired if I tell them that.  So, should I just lie then?
5. I am seeing a lot of job openings but almost all of them requires you to have experience.  It’s just pissing me off.  I mean, is it something that I can’t learn?  For goodness’ sake, I lived a hard life and I am pretty surprised that I am surviving up until now, is there anything that I can’t possibly do?
6. Finally, just being broke.  I am so broke I can’t afford a babysitter to babysit for my baby while I go look for a job.  I tried bringing my baby during interviews and obviously, they won’t hire you if you bring your baby during interview for some stupid reason.  I mean, it’s not like I want that, I just didn’t have a choice.  I need $20 to pay the sitter but I don’t have $20 so I am looking for a job that will give me $20 to pay the sitter, oh I can go on and on.

I am a naturally optimistic person.  It’s rare for me to become like this.  It’s just that life can be frustrating sometimes and when frustration gets into you, then you get frustrated, hahahaha!  I don’t even know what I’m talking about! 🙂

Empty…

 

I am suffering from the same problem that all bloggers have every now and then, blogstipation…

 

I actually have nothing to say about anything…

 

My brain is empty…

 

I am empty…

A dollar a pair!

I went to a garage sale this morning and I got two pairs of shoes for a dollar each pair, and both of them have tags and obviously was never worn.  They were really nice and comfy.  The first one is Tommy Hilfiger Women’s Trina which is about $60 at the store, and the second one does not have a brand name but it was a very good mary jane style with a 1-inch heels.

$1 brand new 🙂

I have been outbid :)

 

I have been outbid on ebay on a shoe that I was interested in!  You probably think that I am mad because I have been outbid, but I’m really not.  I am kinda glad that I have been outbid because the price ended up being too much and not worth it for something that is used, then there is the shipping of course.  It’s fun bidding on ebay, and sometimes stressful too, especially if the item was just too good for the price.  But anyway, I have been outbid and this is not the first time, and I am glad 🙂

 

 

Thank you CutesyGirl!

I got my shoes the day before yesterday, hmmm a little disappointing.  But anyway, since I am in a good mood, I am not going to complain about how long it took to get here.  And I still wanna thank CutesyGirl for delivering those shoes, thank you CutesyGirl, the shoes were awesome, really awesome!

This one right here is really very sexy.  It is comfortable and I think I could wear this with casual clothes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This one is also very sexy and will go very well with jean.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And this one is my favorite because it looks really good and unbelievably comfortable.  Oh goodness I can’t wait to wear them all!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It took 10 days for my order to get here, but it’s okay.  I’m kinda glad to know that my addiction is not too bad, or otherwise I will be having seizure 🙂  One thing for sure, I will be ordering again from CutesyGirl because the product quality is awesome and they were really cheap.  Oh by the way, this is not a paid review 🙂

Advantage and disadvantage of shoes addiction.

 

Advantage:

It is not as bad as cigarette, alcohol, or drug addiction.

Disadvantage:

It is bad for your wallet.

 

Symptoms of shoe addiction.

1.  You think about shoes at least 3x a day.

2.  You look at your shoes at least 3x a day.

3.  You blog about shoes.

4.  You buy more than 1 pair of shoes at a time.

5.  You write reviews about shoes, their brand, and the where you bought them.

6.  You spend more on shoes than anything else.

7.  You are a strong believer that shoes are girls’ best friend.

8.  And finally, you think about shoes while having sex.

 

 

 

 

Shoes don’t matter :)

It’s already Monday and I still haven’t gotten my three pairs of shoes.  I’m getting a little pissed.  I don’t know, it’s not just about the shoes though, I guess it’s just one of those Mondays, you know how Mondays are.  As much as it is bad for the working class, it is even worse for the stay-at-home moms like me.

 

You probably think that shoes are what I always think about, wrong.  I am not as shallow as that, although I might seem like it.  Shoes are not the most important thing in the whole world, but they certainly do make you feel better even just by looking at them.  You see these models who can walk on a 5-inch high stiletto and not fall?  That’s pretty amazing.  I wonder if their feet even hurt after wearing high heels for a couple of hours, mine does.

 

But seriously, why do girls like me like high heel shoes when it hurts your feet?  I mean, I know that if I buy that super cute 4-1/2-inch pink wedge that it would hurt my feet, but I buy it anyway.  What is wrong with me?  Nothing.  I think it all goes down to the fact that if you wear this very sexy shoes that you will look good, and then you will feel good.  Sometimes it’s true, but sometimes not.

 

I don’t really know what I’m talking about.  I guess I just miss those days when I had a job and I go to work everyday,  then I have friends and we hang out after work, gossip, talk about boys, shoes, and how broke we were despite of having a decent job, you know, life of a single woman.  But I have a family now and I love them, I just have to admit the fact that those days are over and stop being blaming fedex or cutesygirl for not delivering my shoes fast enough.  After all, at the end of the day, shoes doesn’t really matter.  What matter is that I have people who loves me.

 

I miss being size 4!

 

 

A week of shoes…

For once in my life, I dreamed about being a shoe designer.  Because it seems like it’s really cool that you can design shoes for women and I think it would probably feel good to see them wearing your shoes.  I don’t really intend to have a big name like Givenchy, Prada, Celine, etc.  I just wanted to make shoes that I fits my personality.  But most school don’t really offer shoe designing, so that leaves me no choice.  Of course I could be wrong though.

When I was in college, I don’t know why but it was very important for students to have a good looking shoes, at least that’s what I have observed.  Some of them would rather starve so that they can buy the shoes that would catch everyones attention.  There was even a motto way back then that says “It’s better to starve than to look like you are starving.”  I know it doesn’t make sense now that I am more mature, but it did when I was younger.

I remember my professor in Marketing and Management subjects who always wear some really fashionable wedges and it was always different everyday.  I thought she might be making hell of a lot of money to be able to afford all those eye-catching shoes.  And I thought of becoming a teacher like her so that I can make a lot of money too and be able to buy all the shoes I wanted.  But obviously it didn’t work out that way.

So here I am, I still can’t believe that I’m going back to school, which obviously means that I still haven’t figured out what I really want in life.  I took a Practical Nursing entrance test and passed it, and now all of a sudden I wanted to be a shoe designer.  Well this is not uncommon for me of course.

Anyway, if I can wear all the shoes that I want, I will sure be wearing different style everyday, like this:

Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday

Thursday

Friday

Saturday

Sunday

So, what do you think? 🙂
