Things we could talk about which would feel relevant to me at the moment

Well, we could talk about the new dishwasher my family got. I haven’t seen it in action yet, but I feel like I’m going to be saying, “I just don’t know how I lived before this” a week from now.

We could also talk about my best friend moving to Texas. He’s doing good, though, and I’m visiting soon, so thumbs up!

Oh, and jobs. We could talk about jobs. I went to see about a census job a couple of days ago, and they had me sit down and take a 28-question test. It was actually fun. It was supposed to determine how good I am with numbers and organization and things like that. Tricky questions are the best. I got only one wrong.

This essay I’m writing could be another topic. Not much to say about it though, since it’s a paragraph long. Sad face. Sad, procrastinating, uninspired face.

I think that’s about it—HOLD IT, SON. We could also talk about this new layout here! I used the same HTML, basically, but check out what CSS can do for you~ Yes, you~

So, that’s what we could talk about if I were the topic of conversation. A dishwasher, a friend, a job, an essay, and a layout. Life is good.

Hmph

I didn’t get the job.

Last night, the woman called me, and said I have more growth in other industries or something. Making me so angry.

There was nothing relevant to put in my resume, so I put web development stuff and made it relate (bad idea). But I told her that I don’t want to do web development anymore. It’s dead. It’s over. Bye.

But she shooed me away because I happen to have experience in something I don’t want to do anymore.

Everyone I know is telling me the same thing, too. Diana, you can do it. Diana, it’s the future. I think it might be impressive that I know HTML and CSS and PHP, but only to people who don’t know them.

It takes more than that to get a job, friends. I don’t know a lot of JavaScript to be a front-end developer, and I don’t know OOP to be a back-end developer, and I don’t have the creativity to design as a job.

And no more learning, please. I’m tired already, and I imagine I’d only get more tired trying to keep up in the industry. No más. I just want an office job where I can use general skills and not be stressed out.

So, I guess I give up. I’m going for front-end developer jobs, making it clear what I can or can’t do. Sigh, you know?

Mi blog es su blog, make yourself at home

Look, look, look! I say this every time I make a design, but this time it’s serious business.

I like this design.

Keeping it for a while. I like making imageless designs more than anything. I also did some other stuff, I got rid of some pages and rewrote the others, and I reorganized the categories and tags.

So, that’s that. WOOOO!
