Causing a fair bit of stirring. (dA)

* Mood: Frustrated
* Listening to: Carry Out

* Drinking: Strawberry Kool-Aid

Okay, as most of you know already, I am very outspoken about politics and things of that nature. I voted for Obama and am VERY proud of it, because it was the change I wanted. Granted everything is in slow motion right now, but I think all in all he is doing the best he can and that people who are constantly bashing him have no idea what they are talking about.

SO I posted some of my feelings on Facebook (yeah, I have a facebook and am fairly addicted) and it has caused quite the stir. It is the first time I've ever really said what I thought about the whole situation and I even used some profanity (which I don't do on Facebook because I have Christian people who are my friends and I also have younger children). So here is what I wrote and let me know what you think on this topic.

"Sarai Lillie is tired of people bashing our president. First off, if you have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all (my mom taught me this). Secondly, you expect him to undo the 8 years of CRAP that Bush left us with in 2 years? Do you think you could do any better? I think not. So please, for the love of God, when you don't know what the hell you are talking about, SHUT YOUR MOUTH."

All Finished :D (dA)

* Mood: Joy
* Listening to: Never Gonna Be Alone
* Reading: The Secrets of Jin-Shei
* Drinking: Strawberry Kool-Aid

Yep, I just finished my massive upload. ^^

This places the amount of poems I have on here at 391. Yep. 391 poems.

Anyway, let me know what you think and enjoy it. :D

Massive Upload (again): Part II (dA)

* Mood: Overwhelmed
* Listening to: Good Girls Go Bad
* Drinking: Kool-Aid

So, if I had known that posting all my old poetry would have produced the outpouring of favorites and comments and what not, I would've done it a helluva lot sooner!

So I am almost finished with the massive upload and then it will be back to the norm of me posting every now and then when inspiration hits me with a two by four.

I am on poem 323 for dA. Since dA has practically everything I've ever written it is safe to say that I have over 300 poems. :giggle: And to think, I've still got 16 pages of poems to post!!

Will obviously post a journal alerting everyone to my completion of this momentous task and then everyone can tell me how much I rock (lol, just kidding, I know I don't).

All for now,
Sarai

Massive Upload (again) (dA)

* Mood: Lazy
* Reading: The Spanish Bride
* Drinking: Watermelon Kiwi Kool-Aid

So I am going to be uploading a bunch of poetry from when I first starting writing. Please be kind as most of it is old and I was young and not very good. I am still not very good, but I have improved.

That is all. ^^

Fired. (dA)

* Mood: Shitty
* Listening to: Stay the Ride Alive - Gackt
* Reading: The Princess Bride
* Drinking: Pink and Yellow Lemonade (mixed)

So yesterday (the very end of my 1st REAL week of work) I was politely told that I had been terminated because of low DPH (donations per hour). I was led to believe that they wouldn't even BEGIN to think about firing me until my 3rd actual week of work (Technically it would be my fourth week because I had a training week last week, though I was told that wouldn't count either) and that as long as I was meeting my quota (an average of $30 an hour) by the end of the week that I was good.

No such luck.

So yesterday was a day of firsts. I got my first real pay check and I got fired.

I feel like a complete and utter failure, but I am trying to move on. I keep hoping if I listen to enough Gackt I'll feel better, and surprisingly he isn't helping. Stupid tele-fundraising job, stupid people who NEVER donate but wish you good luck and then HANG UP on you. I want a soda. *sigh*

My First Day

* Mood: Cheerful
* Reading: I am Legend
* Drinking: Crystal Light products

So my first day went well. Well, I think it went well. I didn't get any donations, but I talked to a few really nice people and I didn't get cussed out by anybody, so I call that a win. Don't you?

Keeping my fingers crossed for a pledge or two tonight. Last night I was calling in the Georgia, Rhode Island and Texas area, wonder where I'll be calling tonight!

w00t having a job!!
