I'm Melissa; pretend journalist and currently real-life accountant wannabe. I used to be a kid in highschool, but I've since kicked the habit. At 18 years of age I'm just moving through life, enjoying my free-time and earning lots of money whilst still living with my parents. Continued on page 2...

Hey guys… I’ve made another skin, if you didn’t already notice. ;) I’d have to say it’s my biggest experiment in colour for quite some time now - generally I go for grey/white layouts, just because they’re so much safer. I think it’s really cool apart from being so pink, but I’ll survive. I experimented with using curved lines - I don’t even want to mention how I achieved those, because there’s probably some amazingly complex ‘easier’ way to do it.

But on to more important things!

The first time I get paid (I don’t know when that is exactly), I’m going to get $150+. Wheee, I like working. Working the registers at Target isn’t all that bad, and it’s cool because I actually get some money out of it. That is, it’s not ‘all that bad’ until you get the demon customer from hell who shall not be named, not that I know her name anyway. She wanted a price check on something leaning towards half of the things she was buying, and it took 20 - 30 minutes to get just her through my checkout because I had to have people going to and from different departments to check stuff. Grar! All the people behind her were giving me dirty looks because it was taking so long, and then she had the nerve to tell me “Oh can you hurry up, I’ve got my child waiting outside.” *goes mental*

Well, it’s true,
