Today on Mike: The Boring Life

I'm neglecting most of my social life – blog included. For the first half of February I was sick. I spent most of the day sleeping, or hanging out with people and wishing I was sleeping. Frustration set in and it's built up to the point where I just want to hit people. I don't get anything done because procrastination seems so easy. Of course I have no one to really blame but myself, but I plan on trying for a little bit anyways.

I have to finally finishing applying to university again. I finished just about everything that needs to be sent to the schools, all I need to do is a summary of what I'm sending them. I'm nice like that. The only problem is doing nothing is so much more satisfying than typing out a list that just reminds me that I suffered horribly at Waterloo. I also want to make sure that my online supplementary application is as good as it can be. There's nothing like a supplementary application to make you feel like a pathetic underachiever. I don't think it's fair for me to feel like an underachiever. I was one of the biggest losers in high school in terms of being an overachiever. Leave it to the University of Toronto to make me feel like I've done nothing with my life.

Of course it doesn't help that I already feel like I'm doing nothing with my life. Finding jobs sucks. It's like smashing your head on something hard over and over again. It's incredibly annoying to not get jobs you're qualified for just because you don't have the build of an Abercrombie model. To which I say "Oh fuck that." I may not be an Abercrombie model, but I'm better looking than all the Abercrombie and Hollister employees in the GTA.

Even more fun than that is just not getting a job because you're a boy. Although I give the man credit for telling me that's why he didn't hire me originally. He also gets bonus points for hiring me in the end. That's right - I've reached half of my temporary employment goals. It also makes me happy to know that it bit him in the ass because the girl that was hired and then fired before me was an idiot, and it only took me one shift to be trained enough to work alone. Making smoothies makes me happy.

The weather seriously needs to pick up. When the weather sucks, I get sad. It's so uninspiring. I don't want to go outside. That leaves me with nothing interesting to do or talk about. I have a few things I'll expand on later. They just need to develop further. If I don't let them they'll end up half finished and crappy. Something like this blog. Cue the tomatoes. And the toast!
