Another bad thing with graduating now is, I don't know how unemployment benefits work in other countries, but in Finland in order to collect that you have to have worked for at least 6 months straight. Then you have to be unemplyed for weeks before you can collect it. Since I have studied I haven't been working. Now I have worked june-now, first cleaning and now at the school, but when my job ends next week I would need to work 1.5-2 more months to be elgible for unemployment benefit. How do I work 2 months when there is no work?? How am I supposed to eat? I'm like double screwed, I can't find a job and since I just graduated I'm not elgible for unemployment benefits... The salary I get now is not even 50% of the worst salary in Finland. In Finland people usually move away from home at the age of 20 the latest. I'm 26 and I still live at home because I can't afford to pay rent and I would probably not even be able to afford food. I feel like such a loser! I've avoided going to junior high school reunions and high school reunions because I just feel like such a loser. My friends are working, buying houses, getting married and soon having kids, and I'm unemployed, still living at home with my mom! I just feel like my life is on hold sometimes. And I just get such anxiety about after next week. I spam companies with so many applications they don't even reply me. AND to top it all off, people should be lucky to get to search for jobs in their own language. I have to write my CV, applications and do job interviews in a foreign language. Before my job interviews I have to google all biological terms snd do a word list that I try to learn by heart and still I stutter like crazy. I probably look like an idiot trying to say something. The other option is to move abroad, but I don't know if I want to. Sometimes I feel so helpless and have so much anxiety... Sorry for venting! Sometimes I just feel like I'll probably live off my mom until I'm like 50. That is horrible me. I can understand how you feel with having anxieties and stuff. I remember when I was younger my hours being cut down to half for about two weeks, I know that is not much time but I was so freaked out, I lived paycheck to paycheck with no savings. My mom was not sympathetic at all not even a come eat at our house until you get back on your feet, nothing. In the US I think unemployment runs somewhat the same, you have to work a certain amount of time to be eligible plus I think you have to prove that you are unemployed through no fault of your own, I don't think you can have just quit your job or have been fired. It is only for if you are laid off. Don't feel like a loser though, just think of the things that are positive in your life. Who knows you could just be in the best position to be offered the dream job you have always wanted! You already show great determination in putting out your resume's and cover letters in a language different than your native tongue, I am sure your job is just right around the corner!

Well this is nothing compared to what a lot of y'all are going through right now. The recent leaked video of Trump really triggered me to some stuff that happened while growing up. I think it was made worse by my own husband saying it was just locker talk and all men do it. Growing up that was what I was always told, "You are just overreacting, all men do that, don't offend him by saying anything, he is my friend, etc etc" Anyways after getting into with a family member I finally took the step to move all those idiots over to another page that I can visit at my own choosing. I feel a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Now I can like all the Eminem pictures I want to in peace!!! :6z

Aaww thank you so much! I've just gotten home from visiting a friend in middle Finland, and she's got the same education as me, but as soon as she graduated she applied to another school and is now studying to become a nurse, because she's heard the job situation is so bad. It was great to vent with her, but at the same time I feel like at least I haven't given up and at least I've tried. And I'm not giving up now either. I also just heard a teacher say at the school I work at, that newly graduated people might not have to work 6 months before getting unemployment benefits, we could get it sooner, so I have to look that up. And my contract with the school was prolonged a week. So I still got next week. I feel a bit better for the time being

So it was my birthday... I don´t really like to do a party about it, I never did and for some reason since my mother kicked me out last year she enjoys throwing me birthdays party and this year was the second one...yay (is like she doesn´t even know me..I like people telling me happy b´day but I hate a whole party or reunion about it..I can only literally do a small thing with some friends) and my cousin (the one who went to Lollapalooza with me) came to visit me with her mom so mine decided it was fair enough to just get everyone invited to my party(wich she actually planned and set the date without knowing I had any other plan), I only went because my cousin was in town and otherwise I was gonna be all alone in my boyfriend´s house. When everyone was around the table full of food my aunt said "let´s make a tost for the birthday girl!" and one of my uncles said "yes let´s sing happy birthday to Emilio" (he´s my brother, the one that is so sick) and my face went like wtf! even my brother with a mental retardation knew the man was soooo out of place and said "but is HER birthday, mine was like 5 months ago remember?" and he insisted "yeah, I know, but we want to sing it to you" and I felt so annoyed and left behind in my own party ....but I thought "ok, he just had an asshole moment, let´s move on ´cause I´m best than that"...after eating, wich was a horrible moment (as always in almost any familiar reunion of any kind) because I was completly ignored, my mom oh so proud took out a frozen cake it was pretty good) and started singing happy birthday and blah blah, while eating it, we started talking about how mothers wake up their children whit a yell or all scared because they don´t remember if they came back from partying the night before, so I started telling a story when my mom woke me up screaming like if my Eminem music collection was on fire, and she said I was actually already awake and I started telling her actually I wasn´t and my uncle (the same one that was a jerk before) said "of course she was awake, she was on extasy all night long" and there was an umconfortable silent and my face was like I was surprised/mad HOW THE FUCK CAN HE SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT?!!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH HIM??!!! I don´t do drugs, he doesn´t know anything about me or my nights out EVEN MY GRANDPARENTS WERE THERE!! I know that never happened but do the rest know? who the hell can be sure!!he can´t say something like that in a moment like that!! I was so mad!!! they even got me a broken pair of earings...and said "these are broken but you can fix them if you want to" I was like who gives a broken present?? fix it and then give it to me or don´t give me anything at all I wouldn´t have mind it..
After that..in my actually birthday, I was gonna spend it alone because no one was able to get together that day, so my mom took me out for lunch, bought me my first leather jacket :4w and a few more things and then I told her I needed to buy make up to be able to start working (and make up here is so freaking expensive you won´t believe) so she gave me all the make up she had that she didn´t use....so it was a loooot of make up, she only kept like 10 things for herself and she also gave some hair products she wasn´t gonna use so I was happy!!! :6z I hope to start having a lot of clients so I can have some extra money..
But I´m fed up of my dad...he gives me money evety month for the university, the gym, my medications, the bus, etc and this month he gave me $1500 less than usually and I bury myself in debts so I was hoping he actually gave me money for my present and guess what...he did..he gave me those $1500 to pay for the university so is like he didn´t gave me nothing at all he must think I´m stupid

The school is throwing a party for the teachers next week friday and the theme is USA! I'm reslly excited, I've bought starts and stripes stuff that I'm gonna put together to an outfit! I found red and white striped thights, a red glittery bow for my hair and a blue with white stars scarf. I know in one store they have a white&red striped blouse and maybe I could sew a blue skirt with white stars? more outfit ideas are very welcome of course!! And cally I wish you'd do my makeup and nails! I bought brand new red, blue and white nail polish. I'm horrible at that stuff myself tho! I usually look like a 5 year old who found mommy's makeup box LOL! How much would you charge for flying here and doing my makeup? And I'm sorry about your bday cally! That sounds really shitty what your family did! Glad you got the makeup tho! That sounded nice!

See you soon then! And I said I'd give you info about Em... never said anything about not being known... :ce :ce So if you do my nails I could tell you that e.g. Marshall was born in St Joseph, MO He was born in 72... but ok, I'm curious about the bathroom visits too, of course! Are we talking number 1 or 2? Omg, I can't believe I just wrote that :ce Number 1 would have to be like 3 times... an hour! LOL
