tree. compton avenue. tuesday.

my messy ass apartment.... note the peeling posters...ahh..post college life mr.ewok and mr bear are hung over me thinks..

the new "hip" photography style.

outside a classroom at Markham Middle School. I just liked the shadows.
I know alot of this "stress" is self made right now. sometimes, I wake up depressed, and I have to tell myself, "what the hell is going on?". then, I snap out of it.
I have some decent job prospects here in LA, although none of them have made my fall in love. but, if I can make a decent living (read: same as now or more) at a job that doesn't go against most of my standards and morals, I'm staying in sunny LA for another year. initial phone interviews are weird, especially if you have developed a nasty whiskey and ciggarettes voice from the flu.
we will see. we will see.
my addiction to caffeine is really interesting. i'm trying to quit, but, i'm having a hell of a time doing so.
i also purchased a digital camera a while ago. pictures forthcoming.
oh.. kind of forgot about all this.
as this school year winds down, I'm at a cross roads, as the joe strummer once said "should I stay or should I go?"
while, at first I was deadset on going back to my beloved city of kansas city, missouri, I have applied for a few jobs out there, and have yet to hear back I wouldn't regret going back home, living at home, doing that kind of life.
at the same time, I am starting to feel the pull the los angeles has on me. maybe I should stay, at least for another year. thats if I can find a job. see, I do not want to teach at markham at all. so, for me to stay, I need to find a job that has comparable, or preferably more pay and a different workload/stress level. I don't want to say Less stress or work, because thats not possible, plus, its not the amount of stress/work that I hate, its the type...
i realize that I have quite a few friends both here in LA and back home. i just have to make a decision. so I did. If I find a job out here in LA that I can support myself with, I'm staying. if I can't, I'm definately moving back to KC.
no regret. i have to realize that my location cannot be the main determinant of my happiness. I am the main determinant. so, with that in mind, you got a job for me?
