Tower Records Massapequa... How May I Help You?

As I was driving down merrick road today i saw a man walking with a Tower Records bag... i then almost slammed into the car infront of me because my brain was flooded with memories and a tiny bit of sadness the second the screaming yellow and red bag came into my eye sight... i spent six years of my life being an employee of Tower Records... granted i quit twice and was hired three times that place was my second home for six years straight... however now its two months shy of the year anniversary of the stores closing.. and its all bitter sweet... i remeber everythign about my time spent there.. from the day i walked in and filled out an application.. to my interview the next day.. to the first day i started two days aftermy interview.. i remember the people and the events like they happened yesturday... i made my best friends and my worst enamies inside those walls.. we all laughed.. a bunch of us cried... and a few of us fought... however all of those ingrediants made us the family we are today... over the years in my life i have had many different groups of friends from many different situations i have been involved in... those friends have all come and gone especially in the past seven years.. my family from tower are the only friends that have stuck and stayed with me through out... now when we drive down Sunrise Highway past Tower Records Massapequa.. we see a Halloween store which is fitting seeing that most of of our fav holiday is halloween and we celebrated that holiday the hardest.. it is also coincidental that as i write this Seinfeld is on television seeing whom ever was on staff the final year knew every word to every episode on seasons five and six due to a damaged copy of the box set we carried... i love most everyone i worked with... you are my family and without you i would not be the person i am today... my glass is raised to you.

New Blog

I havent had a blog since i was in my early twenties using my mothers pc.. i would write about what most twenty year old girls would write about... boys... college... heart break.. friends.. what movies i went to see... Now i am twenty seven years old and although it doesnt seem like that much time has passed it has definatly been ages since... so now id like to think id write about more mature things... more life changing... important.. save the world type things... but in reality i am jaded by life... i still go to the movies... and my heart still breaks.. however its takes more than a boy to break it.. my mind is filled with questions and confusion... my soul aches for a better understanding of who i am and what life has planned for me.. there has been many bumps in my metaphorically speaking "road"... bumps that have realistically changed the future as i once would dream... so with that i hope that my posts can bring at least a good read to whom ever stumbles upon them... i questioned why i would post personal issues on the internet for the world to see... and after stairing at my book shelf full of journals from the past thirteen years that only i have read i have discovered that for the past thirteen years i have just been talking to myself.. so now although my spelling is poor and my grammer a shame im sharing myself with the world and talking to you.
