It's about midnight, and I know I'm not gonna finish this post before that so I debated on whether to date this for the 5th or the 6th. I decided on the former because 1) it looks more "impressive" that I've posted on here 2 days in a row and 2) it sounds nicer for me to say "today I did this and that" and yadayada... This does not matter at ALL in reality but of course it's something that I'd actively think about and consider.
But enough of that stupid shit, let me tell you about my day... Maybe you don't care about that either but if you don't then why are you here ns? 😭 HENNIWAYS... I had a pretty eventful day today actually... Firstly, I went and got my voter's license for the first timeeeeee and I'm sooooo excited because of how important I think it is to make my voice be heard on something as important as choosing our country's political leaders. And by that I mean the ones in Puerto Rico solely because despite being American citizens Puerto Ricans cannot vote for the US president. 😍😍😍 Gotta love colonialism! But I'm kinda glad because the two choices for presidents this year are yet again two incompetent, heartless, senile demons so... prayers for all my American friends. 🙏🏼 If it was up to ME... I would just pull a French Revolution 2.0 up in this bitch but I'm too lazy for that and also I'm not trying to go to prison. (FBI if u read this this is a JOKE. kinda.) I'm really hoping that this year we see a change in the political landscape of PR. Year after year it's the same 2 dumbass parties in power and frankly? I'm sick of it! As is everyone else. We need to put an end to this shit y'all!! So if you haven't registered to vote go ahead and do so and let's all rock the mothafuckin' vote this NOVEMBER 5TH ladies! Mark ur calendars! 📅
After that me and my friend stopped for coffee in a café located in the floor below, but not before stopping to talk to a man who had RANDOMLY called my name and asked me to come see him after I was done with the license stuff. Ngl... bitch I was scared. He was a security guard and the building had a bunch of people in it so maybe that fear was a bit unfounded, but still I was curious and confused. Turns out he was just one of my mom's longtime friends who had recognized me but I hadn't recognized him until I saw the name on his badge. We talked a bit and I introduced him to my friend, and he talked about how smart I am (💋) and how he knew me since I was a kid. After that I felt so relieved cuz I genuinely did not know what else it could've been. Oh and some lady in the voter office (however u say it) recognized me as my mom's son too so like... I guess my mom just knows everyone here LMFAO
After that, we headed to a music store that I was excited to visit because I wanted to check and see if they were hiring and I wanted to also support a local music store since there are literally none. We arrived and they told me they weren't hiring which wasn't surprising. I didn't wanna leave empty handed so I decided to pick up (what appeared to be) a copy of Ednita Nazario's Lo que son las cosas, specifically since the album wasn't on Spotify.
I didn't sleep at all last night because of how late I had woken up the previous day and how early I had to be up today. If I do get this job though, I'm gonna have to fix that. Regardless, when I got home and my friend left I spent some time on my phone before crashing for a few hours... and now I'm up writing this yayyyy!! ANYWAYS I really do hope I get this job because despite the fact that at the end of the day it's still a job and I hate not being able to spend all my time doing nothing productive (like now!) it does seem like a more chill job than the one I used to have. I'm a little scared as to how it's all going to work once classes start up again but I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get to it... As for now though, that's all! Good night everyone~
