I am so sick of looking at these four walls every single day. I feel like I'm slowly going insane. The silence was nice at first, but now feels like it's eating away at me. I need some air.... I feel so trapped and alone. I'm sick of it all.
When I feel like that I usually decide to just go outside or go somewhere where it isn't my house like a movie, a museum expo or something.
Please don't hit me...

Why not step outside to the backyard with the dogs and play around with them
It's too dark. And that isn't what I meant; you know that.
So go somewhere. Visit your parents or visit your friends, something of that nature. When I really feel like getting out of the house I put on my music and go for a small walk, it helps me think and sort things out from time to time.
Face your emptiness don't be afraid. The danger is often smaller than your fear.

That's a sad and cute situation at the same time. At least you can still take walks with the dogs to get out of the house.
But if you can't leave, why not invite some friends over?

I would so do that, but it's still freezing over here and the older dogs have arthritis. I'd have to wait for Spring. As for friends... they think my pit bulls are vicious and refuse to come over and if they do by any chance come over, they'd rather sit outside. Mean.

Geez, that's all quite a pickle. I suppose you don't have a separate room or a fence or something to temporarily lock them away so you're friends can come over in peace?
If that's no help you probably need to find salvation in your own home for this problem. What about trying a new series to watch? playing a new game or something? If you keep yourself busy maybe it would help relaxing a bit.

They scream bloody murder if they're locked up. They're so attention hungry; it's adorable, though. Haha.
I've been drawing a lot more lately to pass the time and cleaning a lot more, so I suppose that's a good thing. Not to mention, my boyfriend will (hopefully) be coming over on Thursday. That's something to look forward to. ^___^

We live 3-4 hours away from each other and travel by train to see each other. I said "hopefully" because where I live is expecting a big storm tomorrow night through Thursday evening.

Why do people think it's actually worth something to tell me that they hate me on the internet? This is the internet, you really think I care what somebody, who is a random person that I'll most likely not meet in my life, thinks about me? Do you think I'll feel bad for making somebody dislike me on the internet?
Of course not! It's laughable that you think I would care that somebody insults me or hates me on this thing. Go ahead and hate me if it makes you feel like a better person, I really don't give a flying copulation what you think of me.

Well thats the point of the internship, its more about gaining experience than making money. Where have you been looking for internships?

Don't think about the money at first. Just start on something, keep with it for a while, then start going for the next thing that actually pays. It's supposed to be a temporary situation anyway.
Think about it this way: if you start somewhere now, then in a year's time, you might have gained up to a year's worth of work experience, and you may even be working someplace that pays. If you're motivated enough.
But if you don't start somewhere now, then in a year's time, you'll still be stuck in the same situation.

Those are also a great way to gain experience but i think the military enlistment is a bit to extreme. I had that same problem with finding work but luckly I started off with small jobs like a packaging company like UPS and from there I began gaining new job experience and now I have 6+

By military enlistment, do you mean actual fighting in the military, or other, less dangerous positions? I wouldn't risk my life just to gain extra work experience to get other jobs.

It sounds like you've had a lot of short-term jobs, CatMuto-- maybe you've made some contacts there that you could get in touch with to see if they know of anything?

Internships don't pay at all or very little, I do not volunteer and self-employment I cannot do as I don't really have any skill that would be valid enough for self-employment. I can already not work in my trained profession of being a cosmetician, because all those lotions and creams and other perfumed stuff gives me migraines.
I have been toying with the idea of publishing a book...
I won't join the military or anything like that. I need to earn money, not just for myself or my self-esteem or even self-worth, but because I do not want to have to continually get money from my mother or my husband. I want to be able to see something I want to buy and immediately buy it, not wonder how long it'll take me to save up the tiny amounts I scrap here or there.
And part of me wants to tell those employers who repeatedly tell me "I want someone with experience, I am not in the store often or long enough to really train someone" that they can forget their need for experience or training somebody: I don't need somebody to train me how to sell things. For one, you can goddamnwell learn the stuff while working. For another, I pick things up pretty fast. I mean... Last place I applied to: a clothes shop. It's selling freaking clothes and shoes, I can sell those things! Not just cause I was taught how to sell things during my training, although I already knew how to sell things beforehand, but because it's... it's freaking clothes. I don't need a PhD in brain biopsy to sell clothes or other stuff!
Why do people think selling clothes (or even games, Gamestop!) or working a cash register is so freaking difficult?
It's not!

Why don't you try finding a simple job that you can work your way up from like a pizza shop,fast food resturant or just something small that way you can build up experience. You can't just expect to find a job so easily like that. You must start off from the bottom and work your way up to the top.

Yes, as Cravat says, I'm just dropping suggestions. I've personally tried volunteering, seasonal jobs, work study positions and a temp agency. Volunteering helped me get a cashier job and then the seasonal job, which helped me get the work study position, which allowed the temp agency to hook me up with a state organization, which thought I was a good enough fit. After several months, the organization allowed me to apply full-time. I did so and I've been there ever since.
But that's just one person's history. Everyone's work history is different, and not every job will have the same requirements (education, experience, education/experience combo) but when starting out, it helps to be open to a lot of things.
Cat, I admit I'm very confused. When you state 'husband' are you referring to someone you are joined to through a legally binding contract, or a husband by name only? If it's the former, I'm trying to figure out why it is you are currently living with your mother instead of him. (Of course, if that's too personal, you don't have to answer that.)
The problem of contacts is a matter of networking. You don't have contacts? Get some. Don't know where to get some? Join a club, take a class, volunteer, etc.
Internships will make your mother annoyed? Why? Because you're doing something that will help you move toward a point where you are not financially dependent on her (or not as financially dependent)?
Internships will make you miserable? So steel yourself for misery, or go do something else.
Honestly, I'm not sure what else to say. Think outside the box? At some point, you need to stop blaming the store managers for looking down on your lack of experience, because it doesn't seem to be helping. I'm serious when I say to think about your situation in a year. If people are still turning you away for lack of experience, maybe it's time to change your strategy.

Technically we're engaged, no actual legal binding and we aren't living together. I just call him my husband since we're gonna get married anyway.

I'm already miserable enough. Also, I just don't see the POINT of working without getting paid.
Quote:

Because no money would be earned from internships. And they don't cover my isurance, so I would be doing some work I'm not paid for, not be insured by them and my mother would still have to pay for my insurance. There would be no money coming IN on my side.
Quote:

Clubs or classes would require money. Which I don't think my mother would be willing to pay for, considering the above stuff. I want money coming IN on my side, I don't want to have to waste more money just to get a step into the working world, when I should be capable of getting into WITHOUT that.

Can't your boyfriend or any family member can fill you in their jobs? Or tutoring young neigboring children? Or even cut the lawn of the neigbours.
My boyfriend lives in America so I cannot get a job through nepotism at his cinema, even if he's the general manager. Especially since that cinema is supposedly gonna close in April.
My mother's legal firm does not allow family members to get a job there - it's heavily frowned upon. I was only allowed to help out for a week on short notice, because her colleague was sick and they needed someone to fill in.
I'm not good with tutoring since I do not really have the patience for it. I expect people to understand things pretty fast, not that I need to explain something to them fifty times until they start to get into their heads. Also, there are enough "real establishments" nearby that give help with homework for school children.
Also, I live in Germany. Nobody here in the city has a lawn that needs cutting. Only places with houses that have their own lawns are out in the rural areas, where I'd have to go take the train for about an hour or even longer... and I think I'm not the only one who sees that riding a train for an hour or more is not worth it, just to cut someone's grass for 15 minutes.
And I'm applying to all sorts of places as a cashier. Clothes shops, Gamestop, and the various supermarkets around the place. I mean I HAVE worked as a cashier before, in one of the largest supermarkets. Yes, it was for two days, but that's some godfuckdamn experience. Plus, it's not THAT hard to figure out.
I'm already dumbing myself down to get a job, I know I'm way overqualified for those jobs.

You thought you could be safe in your courts, with your laws and attorneys to protect you. In this world only I am law, my word is fact, my power is absolute.

What's your qualification Cat?
'choo mean qualification?
I have a Mittler Reife, which is what you get from graduating from Realschule. In Germany, that's like the second best high school certificate you can get. The better one would be Abitur from Gymnasium, which would have kept me in school for one more year. (Plus I would've had to switch schools, I think...)
I also have a finished training to be a professional cosmetician - but as already pointed out, I cannot work in that job anymore due to getting a migraine. And no sane person would go to a job that incapacitates their work or health like that.

Face your emptiness don't be afraid. The danger is often smaller than your fear.

All the beer was placed outside because it's winter and that way it stays cold for free. Instead of taking the closed beer inside to open it with an opener I decided to use the beer crate itself, since you can use the edges to open your beer.
Anyway, 99/100 times this is no problem, but I was not careful and my hand slipped, resulting in a small cut in my finger.

I personally prefer coolers over beer. My favorite is mike's, which has a similar cap to a bottle of beer. I don't have a bottle opener, so I often use a spoon to open the bottle. It makes me feel like a redneck.
My friend opens bottles with the part of the door frame where the latch bolt goes. It's pretty redneck.
...and there's fifteen feet of pure white snow

I don't know if its considered redneck but a friend of mines actually opens beer bottles with his own teeth

University is the highest in Germany and No, I do not have that. Not many people do. You only need a University degree if you want to work in, like, the physics or science department. Or become a teacher. (It's not like in America or so, where you apparently NEED to go to College to get a decent paying job)
The rest of the jobs you need a training (Ausbildung) for, which is what I have in cosmetics.
