Fuck BLOCKBUSTER!
Aug 18th
Well I finally have the time for updates! “Why?” Because BLOCKBUSTER let me go, as they have done to so many valuable Managers.
No – my store did not close down (I’ve turned profits in every store I’ve operated) Unfortunately, I was fired due to politics. I apparently did not kiss my District Manager’s ass enough. Call me crazy, but when I can “fix” their broken stores and they send me from one store to fix to the next; I don’t feel I should be kissing his ass. (In my mind, HE should be kissing MY ass, but you know how life really goes)
Anyway, (on my day off) I was called and asked to come in a little early the next morning to assist my District Manager in finding some paperwork he was going to be auditing. I agreed and met him at my store the next morning.
The next morning he came in and brought a Corporate person along with, and let me know that I was being terminated. He said I had broken policies (even though he had directed me to do the things that broke policy) and that my “Mistake was going to cost you your job.”
Which brings me to my point. FUCK BLOCKBUSTER! I gave my blood, sweat, and many tears to that company for nearly 8 years. I had worked there during the “Glory days” to the “Doomsday days”, loyally and always defending BLOCKBUSTER’s stupid decisions.. Towards the end of my days, all Store Manager’s were being threatened weekly about how we had better get all these customers to buy a $3 Coke,Candy,Popcorn and $5 Coke(2),Candy(2),Popcorn bundles, with a 40%/60% mix of $3/$5 bundles — even though the customer’s do not want them, and it makes BLOCKBUSTER little revenue. (The reason SM’s were being terminated for not getting enough of these bundles sold with a 40%/60% mix is that BLOCKBUSTER apparently counts on receiving “kick-backs” from Coke, Nestle, Hershey’s and Orville.)
I will never spend even a penny at a BLOCKBUSTER store, kiosk, Online or anything BLOCKBUSTER ever again – you shouldn’t either!
Second Lady Gaga concert added for Dallas
Apr 11th
For all of you Lady Gaga lovers in Dallas; a second concert has been added for the day following the first one! Now, I got my tickets for the first concert – but I am happy that the second concert should allow more of her fans to see her! Rock on, little Monsters! 
I think I have decided that I will add a Lady Gaga Media section to this site; and depending on how it takes off, maybe a full-fledged Lady Gaga fansite! I absolutely adore her, and would love to make a site dedicated to her and her fans.
Timing will be the fun balancing act, however, if I start up another project. Still, I am already so dedicated to it! Time shall tell where this muse/idea will take us! If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Going to see Lady Gaga!! YAY!
Apr 10th
OMG! I am going to go see Lady Gaga (with my boyfriend) live when she comes to Dallas! I am so fucking excited! Just getting the tickets was a scary event – as the Ticketmaster website kept experiencing issues finding any tickets. After a retry (and getting in line ALL OVER AGAIN) and some tears, it came back with some tickets!! (Thank god!)
The concert sold out in minutes; as I knew it would! It’s a good thing I made sure to be online and ready for the tickets when they went on sale – and even through the issues experienced; was able to get tickets!
This will be my first concert, and it is sure to be an awesome experience! I cannot wait!!!! (I love you Lady Gaga)
In other news; life has been busy (as normal) lately. I am going into work early (again) today to get more stuff done. Tomorrow I should be off all day – provided nothing happens that results in me being called. 
I’m thinking of creating a Lady Gaga media fansite in the future.. Any opinions/comments?

I’m still here!
Jan 22nd
Wow! It’s been a while! Does anybody still read this? Anywho – where do I start this time?
Things have been pretty good lately. I still love my job at BLOCKBUSTER (maybe too much.) We’re a new (remodeled) BLOCKBUSTER – and the store is just awesome! I got promoted to Assistant Store Manager a while back (and forgot to post about it). I couldn’t be happier.
Outside of BLOCKBUSTER, my life has been relatively quiet. I suppose that in some instances I keep it that way (subconsciously?)..
Anyways; as I think about the past issues/thing’s I’ve gone through that made me who I am — I will begin posting more entries and more content. (I know, I know: I’ve been saying this for a while now. Rest assured that you can check back periodically and see the updates for yourself and know I’m serious this time.)
TTFN.

Updates: Hot-Linkers, siniStar7.COM and Life
May 17th
Let’s start with some updates…
First; as I have asked since I began putting my media online – PLEASE DO NOT HOTLINK TO IT! Until now; I’ve only been asking. Now you have no choice. This has become too big of an issue for me — I woke up this morning and found the site had been taken offline due to Bandwith consumption. So I have activated a server-side HotLink protection system. If you have hotlinked to any of my content; it will show up as non-existant. It’s quite upsetting that I’ve had to activate HotLink protection — as I used my images on other websites (that was authorized) which can no longer be done. It’s such a shame when a few people ruin things for everyone.
Secondly; I’m still here. I realize that I’ve not posted much since I began working again.. This isnt intentional, but must be fixed none the less. I will begin posting on here more often. I’m contemplating and playing with new ideas for the site; maybe some new media. Stay tuned! In the meantime; don’t forget about my newest project: IRC4Fun (You can usually always find me online there)
Lastly; life is over-all going well. I’m feeling happier than I’ve been in a while – even with people trying to bring me down. I will post more about life probably later this evening or tomorrow. (Stay tuned for that too!)
That is all for now

What is new with me? Let’s go!
Jan 10th
So first, got my job back at BLOCKBUSTER. Thank god for that, but I (shamefully) had to start at the very bottom all over again. After leaving BLOCKBUSTER for my previous job that was supposedly better, it turned out to be worse and I lost all I had with BLOCKBUSTER and my Management title/status. However, I have been given the 4-Star CSR position, that is essentially a CSR (Bottom rank employee) that can morph into a Manager when necessary (and it bumps my pay $0.60 while I am “Manager’d”).
So, am going to try to work my way back up to where I was — but admittedly, that will take a long time (if it happends at all). In the meantime; is time to scrimp and save and live uncomfortably poor. God life is fun. Still, I am glad to be back there.. I am so good at my job there – and even after being gone about 10 months; everything came back to me instantly upon coming back. I didnt even really need training. I love the feeling of being able to do the job with my eyes closed & hands tied behind my back. So I am just overly thrilled to be back (though i never thought I would say those words).
Next, I rented some movies at work; one being “Killer Drag Queens on Dope” which was quite amusing. It stars Alexis Arquette (from Surreal Life, etc). I really find it quite amusing and am tempted to buy it. Not sure if its the BLOCKBUSTER employee purchasing addiction, or if the movie just gives me satisfaction with my current life situations. (Being dumped for the 3rd or 4th time now by the same person — that is next)
And finally; was dumped again by the same guy for the 3rd or 4th time. Apparently this time because “I get attached too quickly”. This after he sends me an e-mail saying that he realized he ran off on me several occasions before but says he really wants to make it work because I’m a great guy.” Then he also proceeds to tell me that we have nothing in common (excuse me? WTF?!! BULLSHIT, but if YOU believe it – GREAT!) and that I’m slutty. HELL-FUCKING-O; I have only been with 5 guys in my life. Most of the people I know cant count on one fucking hand how many people they’ve fucked! I hadnt dated anyone for over a year before you and you call ME a slut?! FUCK YOU.
Sorry, obviously some of those words are meant for him. I doubt he will read this; but still — I need to vent it before I go on a rampage.
All of this bullshit has inspired me to write down some of the things in life that have always left a mark on me and shaped me into who i am and therefor explain my oddities. People dont understand me, and they likely never will; but at least I can vent and possibly help others that have (or are) going through some of these good/bad/tramatic things..
Anyways, that is all for now – I hope everyone is having a great night.

Hey everyone! I’m still actively here and working on my newest project: IRC4Fun
However, its not right to ignore my other projects; so I have added a new wallpaper to the collection for download. This wallpaper features Marilyn Manson from the “Mechanical Animals” era and the music video ‘I Don’t Like the Drugs [But the Drugs like Me]‘. I actually made this wallpaper like 2 years ago, but never posted it for some reason. So here goes!
