Tweny-Four...

I'm Laura. I think Teddi mentioned me, and yeah, i'm late actually posting on the blog. Honestly, it's probably going to happen a lot. However, I'll get around to it, and you'll get some posts from me. Jennifer, on the other hand, well...you may never hear from her. She's around, in Atlatna, taking some Graphic Design classes and dreaming of finding a job somewhere. But, alas, that's not really happening. As Teddi said, we are The Lost Generation (2.0).


As for my background. I graduated from Furman (with Jenn and Teddi) in May and then taught at two camps for June and July. August I found myself back at home with my parents applying for jobs, and spending my days a little like this :

1 - Rise
2 - Make tea (ask me for my recipe sometime) and watch The Cosby Show
3 - Go on a run*
4 - Shower
5 - Complete makebelieve tasts (cleaning my room, going through papers, running errands)
6 - Find something to cook for supper
7 - Go to grocery store if needed
8 - Watch Ellen and cook supper
9 - Eat supper with father
10 - Watch tv with mother while applying for jobs
11 - sleep

*I later stopped running ... it seemed like i was gonna be in denver forever doing nothing (but the above schedule) for the rest of my life, so I, "let myself go."

Yeppp...those were my days. I did, however, find time to have a yard sale in hopes to make a little extra cash (since I had no job) and helped my parents clean out the attic. Thrilling life.

Last month I landed a part-time job at The Children's Museum of the Upstate in Greenville and found out the after-school program I was hoping to help start was actually being brought to fruition. I quickly packed my bags, and moved in to a lovely little house with Teddi. The after school hasn't started yet, so for now my week is my weekend and my weekend are my weeks. That means, I work on the weekend (when everyone else catches up to themselves) and relax during the week (when everyone else loses themselves).

Today, Teddi got called off work, so we spend the morning retrieving applications from various stores for her to apply to ... and then ... watched 24 ... TEN STRAIGHT EPISODES! It's really quite terrible that we can get all the seasons on netflix. This means, we can't stop watching...it's terribly addicting. However, it also doesn't matter because, being The Lost Generation (2.0), we don't have anything else to do - no jobs, no money, no fun (except for netflix).

peace, part-time work & poverty,
laura

I'll pester Jenn, maybe she'll throw up a greeting for our (zero) followers! :)
