So, I got another job rejection. I think I could wallpaper a museum with the number of times I’ve been told, “Sorry dum-dum, you’re not good enough.”
So now I’m just sitting on the fence, trying to decide if I should settle for my current crappy existence or keep striving to reach “my dreams.” Which sounds laughable right now because I’m light years away from where I want to be. I must be an idiot to think I have anything worthwhile to offer. It’s like the movie Groundhog Day and everyday I wake up and go to the same stupid job that suffocates my creative spirit.
I’m so tired of fighting for something that never seems to come. So right now, I’m just going to sit. http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=wzrXc68gNjQ
And now the question remains: do I continue to pursue my dreams, despite risk, and failure, and others thinking “Oh something that cool would never happen.”? Or do lower my standards and expectations for something deemed “more realistic” despite not having much to look forward to? Because most people don’t really like their job anyhow? (sigh)
Damn my restless spirit. Here I go again… http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=r3wuXyOUKJw

No … you keep striving for your dreams, girl. You can do it! Just keep trying; never give up. Don’t let rejections of any kind get you down. Let them be your inspiration to keep going.
…or,do you take a “job job” togive you thefunds and the freedom to truly pursue your dreams?…

When have you ever been one to give up? Don’t do it now. Call if you need to talk. Do you still have my cell?
Actually think “realism” is code for playing it safe. There’stimes when that’s the best choice, but one should never forget that you are wild/free/creative/transformative/original/or just plain funky because your circumstances are currently limiting.
In most heroes’ journeys, there’s a point where the hero needs to tough out mundania

Ok – I’m a part-time lurker. I need an update please. Preferably a bit more cheery. What is your dream job anyway? Your married life video on youtube makes me thinks it might be to direct the next installment of the twilight saga. Between the rocky references and your wonder woman fetish – I’m sure you’re going to do fine. Remember, it really doesn’t matter if you lose the fight, all that matters is that you go the distance.
