LETS CELEBRATE / I HAVE NO JOB

Well, my brother Larry is worse than ever. He got really sick and had to spend Friday night in the hospital. He was driving around town, started feeling sick and pulled over and then called 911 on his cell telephone.

He was okay..which kind of sucked for me because Sunday afternoon one of the people that he works with had a graduation party for her daughter Andie. I don't know this kid but I had to get a card for her becasue larry wanted me to go to the party with him in case he got sick again.

So all his co-workers are there and he is having a great time but they aren't talking to me. Then the congraduation kid, Andie, has a bunch of her friends they ignored me too for a while. After the stupid party went on for five hours i fell asleep in the lawn chair and i woke up to those high schoolers gathered around me...they were writing on my face with a marker. They wrote "poor" on my forehead and drew a dirty image on my cheek.

I was a little stunned and I lashed out at them but missed and I realized that i didnt have shoes on. those punks pulled them off and threw them in the pool.

anyway...my brother was totally embarassed when i came into the house and all his co-workers saw my socks (with tons of holes and stains) and the image on my face. he yelled at me in front of every one and i rushed to the bathroom to clean up...well they used permemant marker so that wasn't going to happen.

we came home on the motorcycle and let me tell you..it sucks riding a motorcycle with wet shoes. and also everyone could see my face because i dont have a helmet.

-_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_ -_-_-_-_

I STILL DONT HAVE A JOB
I had an interview at Wal-Mart on Monday but I canceled it because of the artwork on my face.

i will write you a poem for money...seriously, just e-mail me.

JOB FACTS

I didn't get the Jank-n-the box job
I didn't get the Burger King job
I didn't get the King Taco job
My yard sald didn't work...not only did i not raise a single dollar. i lost TWO WHOLE DAYS of job hunting.

Friends, I need a job.
i'm a artist...poet and painter, but you cant get money doing that. especially since i sold all my airbrushing supplies for money to get my teeth worked on.

I asked my brother if he could get me a job with him driving van, but he said no.

OH yeah, now my mattress is just laying on the floor and i feel homeless...mainly because i dont pay rent to my brother who owns this duplex. and i mooch off of him even though he is sick.

just the other day he was doing motorcycle tricks on our block and i locked us out of the house. we had to break a window to get back in. thanks to me.

POETRY IN LIFE!

N: Hello. How are you doing?
M: I am fine. How about you?
N: I am good. Thanks.
How long have you been here?
M: 4 years
N: what do you surprised when you come here?
M: Too many surprised like the housing, school, and transportation.
N: Can you tell me how different between housing in Vietnam and U.S?
M: You mean housing structure or the way how people lived?
N: Both
M: In Vietnam, the house make of by stone, no carpet, no garage, no air conditioner, and heat. In U.S the house make of wood, more convenient, it includes all of them like carpet, garage, air conditioner, and heat.
N: Yes, it is true because it was built belong to the weather and condition.
How about the way people lived?
M: Most of Vietnamese people live concentrate in a big city. Housing direction is always toward Main Street that is easier to trade and do business. Only poor people live in rural to do farming. Rich people live in cities.
N: Oh, I see. American people enjoy living in quiet areas. It is opposite to Vietnamese. Because they do business, trade in companies or factories, not in their own house as Vietnamese people. Big different in economic between Vietnam and U.S
What is your second surprised?
M: School.
N: How different in the school?
M: Students have to wear uniform from middle school to high school.
N: What are the uniforms they wear?
M: White shirts, blue pants, white Vietnamese dresses for high school students. In U.S clothing is diversity. Students can wear anything they want.
From elementary to high school education in U.S are free, no tuition, fee.
In Vietnam student have to pay for education. Students stay in classroom waiting for the teachers come. They have to learn more than 10 subjects in each semester. Students have to remember all what they study and recite exactly. Teachers punish students by using a big ruler to beat student’s hands. They have to use by their own transportation. There is no school bus.
Students in U.S take only 4 or 5 subjects in each semester. They just understand the lesson they study and do a lot of homework to make sure they get the main point of the lesson. Teachers and students, both have to go to change classes every hour. No beating, have school buses.
N: There are many differences about the school.
This is a different way to learn in school between two countries.
About the transportation, I know people in Vietnam use motorcycles more than cars. What are the other different transportations?
M: In Vietnam, no free way, tunnel, small roadway, people not following the rule that makes the transportation is dangerous. People live in the village use boat often than a motorcycle because there are many rivers in village. Air planes are cost a lot of money, so we did not use it most of the time.
In U.S, we use car, van. Many free ways and tunnels. People have to follow transportation rule. That is good for traffic, using only boat to carry products and goods for trade. Air planes are so popular.
What kind of transportation would you like to use?
N: Motorcycle.

They are many great things that I have to know about the cultures of 2 nations.
I like to know and want to explore some more differences between East and West cultures.
When we have a chance, we will talk about that later.
M: OK. That is good.


CALIFONRIA IS MAKING ME BROKE AS A JOKE :<

a lot has happened since my last up date.

i didn't get the job at jack-in-the-box

i didn't have time to take down the bunkbed from the yard sale and it got soaked by the neighbors sprinkler - now it is runined.

larry was feeling a lot better on tuesday so we went to the costco in Alhambra and he bought a leather calvin kline jacket and matching wallet i went with him. i didmt get anything because i dont have any money.

i had another interview at king taco over in east la and it didn't go well...larry gave me a ride over there on his motorcycle, but i didnt have a helmet so my hair was really messed up...plus my alergies were acting up from the ride so i had a runny nose, sneezes, and red eyes. the boss said they'll call me after he interviewed me for three minutes. sheesh. its cool though i dont have any way to get up there really so i probably would have been fired anyway.

MY SOCALLED YARD SALE

i am really mad

1> i guess no one goes to yard sales in wednesday. i sat out there all morning and only one neighbor stopped by. and she didnt even buy anything. Oh, then she went back to her house and dug a TON of cat crap out of her basement...its like the same stuff i already have - then she GAVE it to me...along with a RABBIT CAGE. The stuff is slightly used and if I would have just talked to her to begin with I wouldn't have needed to buy all the cat supplies to begin with. THANKS LADY. i didn;t think she was cool though because she called the city on us when I didn't cut the grass for like two months. The city came out and mowed it for us and left a $65 dollar bill!!!! I guess she thinks we are even now. NO WAY. ;=<

2> i spent all day tuesday taking apart my bunkbed and setting it up again in my drive way to sell at the yard sale. i figured i would sell it and make a cool $150 - because i usually sleep in the recliner anyway. I took me six hours and i ended up breaking the ladder, no one even looked at it.

3> i still have all these cat supplies that i can't get rid of. i might just store them in my moms basement.

4> i have a job interview at a Jack-In-The-Box out in Montbello tomorrow so wish me luck.

SUBMIT AWESOME POEMS!
