THE FUTURE
Ideal career?: i wanna work in a psychiatric hospital.

Jarrod once told me he wants 12, so we're gonna be able to start two baseball teams between the two of us.
What are you doing now in order to obtain these goals? Mm.. career.. well, I'm making college plans.. kids.. well I'm not doing anything yet..
Do you think you'll age well (parents are a pretty good indication)? Are you scared of aging?: Well considering that when I was seven, my mom and I got mistaken for sisters.. I guess that means I WILL age well.. I'm not really scared of aging though 'cos I know everyone has to.

Worst fears: Well, for one, I'm afraid of managing to get myself into a bad situation that I can't get myself out of, I'm afraid of spiders, and I'm afraid of people shouting, stomping, throwing things, etc, because when I was a little girl, my parents yelled and stomped and threw things around all the time and I grew to learn that it meant I was in trouble and I guess the fear stuck or something.

Any comments?: what was up with the occasional random numbers? <~~ Yeah, I'm wondering that myself.
mmm. So now I ramble about the last 24 hours.
So I went to
Stephanie's yesterday, we went to the arcade and played a little DDR. The guy working accidentally unplugged the machine while we were playing, so he gave us both free games. Free DDR, w00t! So then we watched a guy freestyle, and we played a really hard playlist x.x I died. So died. Darnit. I also kinda noticed that DDR seems to be very male-dominated. Which is weird, because it's dancing, you'd think more girls would be into it.. but no, at AC, it's me, Steph,
Hoshi,
Amy,
Kerry, Pam, and a couple other girls who play regularly [but Kerry doesn't play as regularly as she used to] and everyone else who plays are guys. I dunno. Just something I noticed. Doesn't really make a difference, I guess.
So then I came back home, got online for a bit, then I went upstairs. Cleaned my room last night because I couldn't sleep and it really did need cleaning. So yay!
Anyways, I got up at 8 because I was going to the job fair today. Put a load of laundry in the washer, went back to sleep. Slept 'til about 10 to 9, so then I did a little more laundry, checked LJ, and then my stomach decided to put on an amazing show of pyrotechnics! Wonderful. So I ended up just having a bag of chips for breakfast because I didn't want to upset my stomach anymore.
So anyways, went to the job fair with
Jen, but it seemed to be geared towards, like, 30-year-olds with college degrees. Rarr. But we did pick of a few applications. I figure it can't hurt.
Mm.. what else.. nothing really, just came back here and got on LJ. I was gonna go to Wal-Mart and put in an application there, but I think I'll do that tomorrow. I think I wanna go to the arcade and play some DDR. Yeah.. I've got like three more games that I can play.. think I'm gonna do that.
Then going to Steph's. Again. I'll ramble again tomorrow [or later tonight, whatever]
