I finally finished up summer school a few weeks ago and in a week or so I have to return to school to (hopefully) finish up my college career and as far as I'm concerned my academic career in general. So sick of school ..... no words to even describe how sick.

I just finished looking through the job ads in the Sunday paper and I must say that the job market in general doesn't inspire me. Most ads that applied to me were for secretarial or nanny jobs. I'm confident that I could do these jobs, but just as easily I could have done these jobs while in high school. Why is there so pressure on students to obtain these college degrees, when in the end you end up doing that a five year old could do? I'm baffled. One friend of mine just graduated with a degree in education, but she lands a job making $40 a day substitute teaching. Another friend of mine has been forced back to school because her masters in civil engineering wasn't enough to gain a job beyond entry level without having to move across country. What the fuck? The only job I found remotely interesting was teaching English to students in Japan. That sounds like a job to me!!!

Chris came to Dallas last week to visit me. My mom was excited to meet him, but my dad on the otherhand was indifferent. He tends to not like any of the guys I am dating (though I am not dating Chris) or like any of the good looking guys he thinks I might be having sex with (which I'm not). He was actually pretty nice to Chris, but after he went back to his hotel, my dad grilled me to death about him.

Like I said Chris and I aren't dating ... just good friends. In fact he has a girlfriend. So you can imagine my suprise when last week while we had dinner he propositioned me. He said it doesn't count as cheating while on vacation. Of course I thought he was joking, but to my horror I found out he was serious when I dropped him off at his hotel and he sexually harassed me in the car. When I asked him the deal, he said that as of late he has been "strangely attracted" to me.

What am I ... a dog? The phrase "strangely attracted", I mean is that a compliment or a diss? Was he just trying to be clever or something? Other than that I haven't given the much thought to the incident. I've already been to that show and it wasn't that great... don't think I'll bother wasting my time.

I feel bad for the girlfriend though. They have only been together a month or so and he's already looking for a way out. It wasn't me, but I'm sure he can find some girl who's willing and able.
