Ok I was formulating this while lying in bed so here it goes.

I now have serious doubts about getting a job at Dunkin Donuts, the main manager went away for last week, while the I did hand my school papers (papers that pretty much say that my school thinks I am responsible enough to hold a job, boy I hate federal intervention at times, even though I would also like it in certain cases as well) to the district manage who the main one told me to hand to has not signed it since the last Sunday and now the manager has not called me about anything, not to mention a influx of new employees as well. So I guess I will call or somehow manage to catch him there and see whats up, even though the prospects of getting a job there are rather dismal and once again the challenge of trying to even find an available job or get as far as talking with the manager about it is rather daunting. So that also means I can't get fuel for my car, which is not likely that even with a job I would be able to fill it up much anyway. It is also not like at the moment I really have anywhere to go, at the moment. It is not completely a bad thing though since I can still now, aside from my homework relax for the day, night, and stupidly into the wee morning ours at times.

Also on Thursday I am going to the State House in the New Jersey capital of Trenton, courtesy of the Participation in Government Class, which I have been taking this year. Unlike other, aside from the Computer Art class I am in, this class has people that actually care about the subject that is being taught. So when a county Freeholder came in, Douglas R. Cabana to be exact, most people had plenty of questions for him while others actually listened. Now if you are wondering what a Freeholder is, a Freeholder is a sort of a county advisory counsel who are voted in by mostly other mayors, but if I remember there is one Freeholder position that is voted in by the county citizens, to serve in a counsel that eloquates funds while also looking into propositions accordingly to projects the county either takes part in or is obligated to. The name comes from the fraise during the colonial times that a person who was free to vote had to own property, among other requirements and also extends to the vassals of medevil times. Of course New Jersey is the only state with freeholders so to speak, since NY and every other state has changed the name to County Council Members or something of that sort.

While he was talking he had key issues to talk about, such as what exactly is managed by the county and other things that they are looking into such as what exactly they are doing with Greystone (a huge mental institution built in the 1930s plus surround acres that were owned by the state and all of a sudden abandoned about 12 years ago yet left everything untouched and intact inside), with the exception of some small areas used by certain county government offices most of it is boarded, up. What I think they are planning to do is turn part of it into a golf course and some into a park, and knocking downing the roof and floors of the compound so there is less of a chance it would cave in while people are around it, I think they are debating whether to keep the structure there since it is historical. But as for the individual who was there, Cabana is a very charismatic person who doesn't speak too hastily, answered our entire questions, and every seemed to really like him even Democrats since he is a Republican. However, I felt a slight uneasiness about him, I guess it just stems from my thought of politicians in general that came from what my dad went through while owning a building and a business. Which is why I am taking this class as so I can know how this government system works, so I can fend off anything political and even indisuals who use political BS. Some people usually say it is better to own a business, but unless you expect allot of problems and paperwork to come your way you might as well work undersome who does. Not to mention from seeing all those documentaries that show how some tiranical dictators came to power through pure charisma. This is probably why I want to go into cartooning or something of art and design of some sort. But then even though you are not putting up with politics as much (except if the FCC or somebody somewhere who gets someone to take you to court) there is always marketing. I'm sorry if I am not posting any pictures of my car right now, it is rather late for me so I will hold it until something. When exactly is that time, I don't definitely know.

Ok it has been a while since I ever did an entry here, so here it goes.

1. I got my driver's license today. I never knew when the day would come but it did, today. If anyone knows anything about New Jersey it is probably one of the harshest on getting and being a licensed driver with not being able to get a permit until 16 and waiting 13 months, usually until 17 for getting a license, plus not a full license until 18, not to mention the highest insurance in the nation thanks to overly regulated insurance companies (but I won't go into that). This is only second to New York City and NY State is only a bit harder when it comes to insurance. So I have a license not a full one, which means it would be illegal to drive beyond 11:00pm and before 5:00am, so it is not that bad. I will later post pictures and info on my ride, late as in not months or a year later though.

2. I might be finally getting a job at a business. Its at a Dunkin Donuts near me that also has a Baskin Robbins, I talked with the manager about work hours and whether I got the job, he said I did and would call me some time to finalize work hours, uniforms among other things. Well, in truth this is the closest I ever got to actually getting a job because he has not called me back yet.  I might stop over there some time to find out whats going on. I need something in order to pay for the fuel in my car so I can drive, among other things I would want to buy or save up for.

3. Well, since I am in my last year of highschool I needed a college/university or some place to go after for further learning in something of my choice. My choice is Media Arts, with computer graphics, cartooning and such. The school, which I signed up for and accepted me, is the Art Institute of Philadelphia. The other one I signed up for was the Mason Gross School of Fine Arts at Rutgers, I have not heard from them. So as of now it is off to Philly by fall.

Also, I will be sure to put up some new music for the site. But I have lost my collection of CDs since last year. I know I can always downloaded music but I had a new CD Troll Hammen from Finntroll which I wanted all of you to hear. Oh well, I guess I will think of something else for now.
