No I Don't Have A Full-Time Job But, No I Don't Have Time To Spend With You

And it isn't because you aren't important to me.

No I Don't Have A Full-Time Job But, No I Don't Have Time To Spend With You
Brandy Reiser

Do I have a full-time job? No. Do I have time to spend with you? No. Why? Because I have three part-time jobs and I am a full-time student. Sure I don't have a full-time job but with everything that I am doing every day in my life means that if you want to hang out with me you have to ask me in advance by at least a week. I have to put it in my planner and if I don't have time that week I am going to tell you no.

My jobs and my education are a little more important than spending a half hour or an hour with you. We are still friends but I am going to work and make money every chance I have and I am going to study hard because my grades are important. I know what I need as my overall grade point average to be able to get into graduate school so that I can eventually have a masters degree.

At the end of the day I still love my friends and my family but at the end of the day if it comes down to a chance to make money or to spend the extra couple of hours studying for an exam or writing a paper I will do that over spending time with important people in my life. This isn't because I don't want to spend time with people that are important in my life it's because other things take priority in my life.

At the end of the day, I may not have a full-time job but I have three part-time jobs and I am a full-time student. At the end of the day, those who are important in my life know that I am busy and that I am not blowing them off but instead that I am just trying to do the best that I can for myself.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
