Im actually waiting for the answere from the swedish casino. Hopfully ill get a full time job there, wich would suit me perfectly. But i dont hope to much...

I really dont have a plan for life right now, im living with my parents, working extra houers at pubs and bars as a black jack dealer, and well, spend most of my money on travels and music events!


and im proud of my self! i am now officially employed at cosmopol, the swedish casinos, in stockholm. its 1 of 4 real casinos that we got in sweden. im goofy happy right niw!

interesting views and goals so far....

let's see.....i've been a:

minnow farmer
fry cook
theater biaotch
nursing assistant
wal-mart slave
carnie
welder
mechanic
correctional officer
mall cop
jailer
college cook


I figure i'll just need to find a job in a library, a physics lab, a circus, and something in politics before I die to earn the "jack-of-all-trades" badge...

oh, the shortest job i've had (which was my first) was 6mos. the rest were anything between 2 to 4 years on the job before finding something else...

if I had my fondest wish....i'd be a billionaire and invest in society altering technological discoveries, either that, or the eccentric hermit...

"get" the rat race, don't let the rat race get you....

I don't want to, I want to be able to enjoy myself and not be forced into spending the majority of my life working so I can eventually retire to be old and not be able to do anything fun.

Alas, I have no idea how to do this.

That's a nice thought, but some how, just enjoy yourself dosnt work out in reality i kind of noticed.
Fun things to do often requires money for some reasone.. I dont like it.

My solution was to find a job i really enjoyed. as i mentioned befor im working part time as a dealer right now, and also at a call center (hate it, but need the money). i love my job as a dealer. every night im going to the bar, im actually happy about it, and if i cant deal card in a week or something, i get all messed up and have to play cards on the internet or with friends or something.
im gonna start working full time at the casino in the capital soon, and im happy about it. sure, i will louse some spare time but i will do something i really enjoy. and it gives med kind of good money as well. im often free for 2-3 days, so really, thers nothing that stops me from going to london for a weekend, or even paris or rome. i have a 5 week payed vacation every year, and that gives me time to go to festivals and stuff during the summers.

so.. well.. find what you really like to do. work part time if you can, and enjoy yourself.
if your in to doing something with your hands, like photography, making cloths, hair, jewelery, anything, set up a small buissneys by yourself at the side of your job. its a lot of work, but hey, it its something you like doing its so totally worth it.

I don't plan, I just let s**t happen.

Though, hopefully I happen upon something fun and/or sinful.

Thats a really good question. I guess in my opinion, its best to do something that you really love, that way it doesn't really feel like you are wasting your time or your life.

Sometimes in life you have to expect the unexpected... my work visa is being prepared to make a hole through a mountain in Japan. A container full of gear and over 50 metric tonnes of explosives are already on their way to Japan. Apparently the Japanese have a hard time believing 4 guys can make a 4000 ft 8'x8' drift through a mountain.

I hope to do set design for plays and movies. My dream is to do at least one film that employs a lot of sound stages. Costume design wouldn't be too bad either.
