oh I totally love this
written on Friday, May 31, 2013 @ 9:02 PM ✈
I don't know if I talked about this earlier but I kept my old phone for 4 years and only this year did I "upgrade" (though sometimes it feels like a downgrade). My sister's phone on the other hand, is only 1.5 years younger and guess who the hell wants an upgrade?
And on top of that it's ANOTHER iphone coming into this family. This is getting ridiculous. I only just got mine a few months ago and her phone isn't even that old but oh nooo step back, if she wants something she gets it. Like before she even got her current phone, her old phone was a "brick" nokia phone and she barely had it for even a year and always complained about wanting a new phone. I, on the other hand, had that same phone (different colour) for at least 2 years and I never complained.
But no, kids these days just want everything new and always take what they have for granted. Especially how she just conveniently "lost" that brick phone and then obviously had to get a new one to replace it. To this day I still highly doubt it actually got lost. And don't tell me off for being a pessimistic non-believer (sorry couldn't find better words) because you don't really know her like I do.
And what on earth are my parents thinking? She spends pretty much every spare moment on her stupid ipod touch including the times she's "watching tv" (yeah right, it's one or the other geez) and if it's not that then it's facebook on the computer. If my parents think that getting her an iphone will not effect her chances of actually doing well in the HSC then I'm sorry, but they're delusional. In fact they know it's a bad idea (talked to them about it before) but hey, she's still getting one.
It's not like I'm some evil stepmother that you see in children's stories but I don't see why it can't wait until next year or at least the end of this year. She's suck a slacker as it is and having a portable distraction is not the answer. Oh well, I guess in the end it doesn't even effect me so hurray and meh.
And to back the slacker comment, this was my generic rant to SB today. If people have not had a part-time job before and they are looking for work, don't be so picky about where you work for your first job. You have no experience and like the popular complaint of "they won't hire me because they said I need experience but then how am I supposed to get experience?!" Well then the answer is take what you can get. Apply anywhere (within reason) and if an offer comes up, accept it. Of course you can always quit after a while after you've gained some experience.
Now that's not really the rant part yet but my point is that my sister, and many other people out there only want "cool" jobs like at hype DC, frozen yoghurt places, popular clothing stores, etc. (sorry, that's my take on what I think kids these days find cool). My point is if they don't accept you then shouldn't you look somewhere else because sometimes those jobs are hardly ever given to first time part-timers (not saying that's the case always). So my biggest beef is my retarded sister going "no I won't apply at McDonald's (etc) because it's yucky blah blah blah" well look, if you want to sit around and wait for someone to magically hand you a job then you do that.
Ugh I just really hate people who think they are above something. Just take a job and work it out from there GEEZ. And I think a job could seriously put things into perspective. For example if you earn $20 an hour then something that costs YOU (and not your parents) $20 it makes you think "wow it takes me an hour to earn enough for this" and then you'd appreciate money a whole lot more. Or rather, what it takes to get that money. That was certainly the case for me, not that I was spending money frivolously before or anything. I think that would seriously help my sister since I swear she spends at least $50+ a week and it's not even hers, nor does she ask for that money she just takes it from our house as she sees fit and is dishonest about our "missing money" which pisses me off.
Liars and unappreciative people seriously piss me off.
Sorry for the rant guys.
