And no it's not that fever...fever as in 102 degrees! To the point where I can't think straight, and that I can't do anything I want to do because my head feels like it's been stuffed up with cotton or some substance like that. Hell, I don't even know how I'm blogging coherently. I supposed to get my accuracy checks done and work on my article, but I haven't been able to do that. I hate being sick!!!!!! Although it is giving me a little more time so I can talk to a few more sources.

So today wasn't as busy as I thought it would be...which is a bad thing. Now all of my interviews will be on Wednesday and Thursday. It's beginning to look like I'll be spending most of Thursday night working on my stories. Again, this is what I get for procrastinating, but hell when you feel like you need time to do other things in classes and get some sleep it's kind of hard to take the extra time to do interviews and write articles. It's not a fast process at all.

Some sources are not getting back to me so I'm going to have to scurry for some. I still haven't touched up my story memo so I'm going to have to scrape up something.

I've been listening to a lot of Mark Ronson music. I think I might buy his new album...I don't if I can because I'm broke. Which leads me to the topic du jour: Yo necesito un trabajo.

Yep, The title says it all. There are about three reasons why I want a job right now.

1. I'm tired of being broke all of the time!  I want to buy a few things and I don't have any damn money. Allowance isn't enough to get everything. If I had a job by now I would be able to buy my cleansing creams for my face, makeup and makeup tools, new clothes, a good digital camera, a new iPod shuffle and a few iTunes cards, and a camcorder  with Avid Xpress video editing software. I'm trying to get on my feel so I could create some news clips and send them to Current TV and Channel One, but I have no money!
2. I'm 19 now and I don't have a job. That's just sad.
3. I need some medical, dental and eye insurance. The state took me off of medicaid because I turned 19. They switch me to basic health, but it doesn't cover my glasses and eye exams, and since I do need my glasses it's pretty important that I get my eyes checked (which I need to do soon, but I can't afford to go and get an exam done).

I've been searching, but no one wants to hire me. I don't have flexible hours because I have classes and I'm on the newspaper staff (I'm going to take a sabbatical next year, but that's another post for another day). I don't really have any job experience and I don't have any volunteering under my plate. I don't want to work at a fast food joint so that limits my options by quite a bit. I've been applying all over the place, but no one has called. Target was the only place that had the courtesy to let me know that I wasn't suitable for the job by sending me a card thanking me for applying (that was really nice). Now, I'm thinking my only option is Wal-mart, but I really don't want to work for them either. This sucks ass.

I don't know what to do. Does anyone have any ideas? I need help!
