I went to an open interview at Raley’s today and let’s just say… I feel very rejected. I was doing so well! The manager liked me but he said that I didn’t do so hot on my personality test so he couldn’t offer me the job. I really didn’t understand the personality test. They ask things like “Would you rather pick where you work or have co-workers who are easy to get along with?” I wanted both but it was just one or the other. Most questions were like that so I switched around too much I guess. *cries* I feel so bad. He told me to reapply and come back next week. He also said that he wasn’t really hiring… I’m not sure if that was just a test of commitment but I guess I’m coming back next Monday. *sigh* This is why it’s so hard to get a job.

After failing quite miserably I went to pick up some more applications. Most places didn’t have anymore applications; meaning many people are trying to find work just like I am and resulting as more competitions. Crappers. I didn’t think it was going to be that hard. I’m so jealous of the people who have jobs; I want a monthly salary too!

I’m not sure if anyone watched the movie, “An American Crime” but it is a movie based on the true story of the torturing death of Sylvia Likens. I only watched the last bit of the movie but I noticed in the description that it was based on a true story so I went and did a little research. The information I found was unbelievable.

Sylvia Marie Likens and her sister Jenny was dropped off at the home of Gertrude Baniszewski with her 7 kids to be taken care of. Gertrude Baniszewski and her kids began torturing Sylvia inhumanly when payments for her stay came late. It was said that Sylvia had taken countless blows to the head (some so severed that would cause she to pass out), she was burned, branded, hit, battered, and eventually killed. These torments were not only inflicted by the Baniszewski family but many children in the neighborhood (encouraged and approved by Gertrude Baniszewski) would take turns torturing her. Coy Hubbard, Gertrude’s daughter’s boyfriend also got his share of the torment. “Coy practiced judo on Sylvia, flipping her against walls and onto the floor.” When the police arrived at the scene of the dead girl’s body, Gertrude denied all participation in the crime.

Read the full story here.

I think this is the most horrific thing I’ve ever heard of! How can people be so fucken heartless. It’s just unbelievable. What is even more unbelievable is how light the punishments were on the killers and participants. Gertrude Baniszewski was charged with first degree murder and was put behind bars for 2 decades then released on parole. With the crime she committed, she should have been sent to the death penalty or at least life in prison without parole. Most of the charges for participants of the crime were dropped. Paula Baniszewski, one of the most vicious tormentor, was sent to jail but was released only a few years later. The rest were charged with manslaughter but only spent a 18 months behind bars. I seriously don’t understand how the justice system works in America. I think people who abuse their pets get worst sentences than what these shittie-ass people got. What the fuck? I really don’t get it. Actually, I think death is too light of a punishment for these people, it would be an escape. If it was up to me, I would want them to endure all the tortures Sylvia Likens did. I would have no sympathy for them what so ever. Arg. It seriously pisses me off seeing crimes like these go unpunished or barely punished. It’s just unfair.

My mom came home from work pretty upset today. I asked her what was wrong and she told me that one of her co-worker was being a total bitch to her. I knew exactly who she was talking about and it isn’t the first time that lady picked on my mom. My mom isn’t the type to argue or talk back so she usually turns the other cheek. I’m really pissed off for her after hearing all the crap that lady says about her. She would always input rude comments after everything my mom says. She also calls my mom stupid, which is really ridiculous because she’s the one who lacks proper education and classy human behaviors. I can not stand people who acts like that. I also can not stand how the boss is being so negligent about the situation. I’m really annoyed that I can’t do much about the situation right now but just wait, she’s going to be one sorry lady if she keeps this up. I will march in there and make the scene so big, our local news station is going to do a 1-hour special news coverage on it. Stupid #$&*%.

Don’t you just hate people like that? Ugh.

I heard this girl in my class got accepted into Berkley. I was pretty amazed since it’s Berkeley, hello BERKELEY. Anyways, so I asked her “Do you get grades?” and she got all offended saying, “yea I get good grades! Why wouldn’t I get good grades?! ‘Cause I’m black?!” I didn’t even fucken mean it that way. I know I should have stated the question differently like, ‘what did you get on your transcript for them to accept you?’, but she really didn’t have to take it that way. It was so uncalled for. I’m sorry but just because you’re black doesn’t mean everyone is out to get you or to judge you by your racial profile. Maybe I asked because you seemed like a total dumb-ass bitch. Have you thought of that? Why does it have to be your race? God. People these days.

I know African Americans have a long history of discrimination and racial prejudice, but don’t go inflicting your paranoia and sensitivity on everyone who said something negative [or in this case, sounds negative] to you. Asians [specifically Vietnamese girls] were and still are being sold and trade like merchandises, you know. You don’t see me going around saying, it’s cause I’m Asian?! UGH. I really don’t think using the unfortunate history of your people as an accusation make you right. In fact, it makes you look like you’re proud you were discriminated against because you can take racial offense in everything people say about you.

Well I made a big boo-boo yesterday so I kina… sorta… lost all my files. lol Bare with me while I try to set everything up and get it going again. I’m just as mad as the next person so let’s be a little understanding now people. lol. My clumsiness is going to get me in big trouble someday. Be back soon!

I will explain later.

Million thanks to Kieu reinstalling Wordpress for me. I don’t know what I would have done without her.
