It feels so weird...

Today I walked to Subway to get a tuna sub and to be able to buy it with my own money, it reminded me the how lucky I am to be hired once again to be able to do the things that I want whenever I want to do.  Now the next thing in line is to get a car and, drive where I want to go or where I need to go.  That is going to take some time because right now I don't have the means of buying a car and, getting a personal loan right now is harder more than ever.  I don't know what kind of car that I want but, there is a part of me that wants a Jeep but, seriously I need to be realistic in what I can afford as well as maintain for the time being.  Now looking around the neighborhood as well as many leads that I could pick up the choices are limiting because a lot of people are trying to sell cars that are in need of work.  Looking into my personal finances it does not seem a good time right now to look for a car or to buy something that is a piece of junk right now.  It would be nice to find a decent car around $1000 to $2000 that I can buy out right yet, there are always those whom put up pretty picture but, when the person goes to see the actual car its a piece of garbage.

Now that I have a regular paycheck coming in, I can buy better quality of clothes at places such as Dress Barn, Coldwater Creek, Chicos, Talbots, Steinmart, and many more places that I had once dream of being able to shop into for the last five years.  I beginning to wonder can I get a car and some clothes with a personal loan but, the fear of credit might make the circumstances come out differently because I am only working part-time as well as trying to support a family on one small income. Its hard living at home with a single parent that is not working and, a sibling that is very selfish more than ever before; I wish that I could find another part-time work that could help me balance the spending but, that's wishful thinking because there is not way that I would be able to find anything else until the summer.  Seasonal work comes and goes but, the money outcome of it will be nice and, it will help build my resume for the time being since I am over 18 years of age.  I hope that some of the places that I would love to shop at will have summer work available in the upcoming months; I was told by the local tanning salon they don't start looking for people until the spring so, around February i'll start looking around then.

That would be cool to work seasonal jobs as another way to pay off my loans, bills and other debts that I have accumulated over a five year period.  I hope to be aware of any new seasonal opportunities that come about for, this will make my mother very proud for, she always told me that sooner or later that I would need to take the initiative in order to find work as well as other things in life.  I am taking the initiative in finding seasonal work and, when its all said and done, maybe this will motivate my brother to find work; there is always that case that he may not be motivated enough to the point that he'll have to fall flat in order to make some effort to have his own income coming in.

There is one thing that I can count on when it comes to hiring seasonal workers which are Retail and Restaurants because they are always in need of people during those seasons when the holidays come about or in the summer when children are off from school as well as the college students throwing crazy theme parties are whatever comes to mind.  Restaurants tend to be busier in the summer because of the vacation time and, the flow income from teens as well as college students coming in for, college students are on the go go so, they need to eat once in a while to keep themselves moving.

We'll see when that time passes but, right now it feels so weird that I am around those whom are working and, my brother is at home wasting away playing mindless video games.  Its a shame that he is not using his potential to the fullest extent like he wants to but, there is going to be a day that he had wish that he did use his talents because jobs where we live at require one to three years of experience when it comes to dealing with potential employees based on the job requirements that they are looking for.
