Before Midnight! ... Not any more :(

I spent a fair bit of today sad, and I don't know why.

Considering running for photosoc committee. I'm not sure, though - I don't know what I have to do to run, exactly, give a speech at the AGM or what. Plus, I want my job next year, and it'll be my final year, and I'll have loads of uni work to do.

On the other hand, it'd be a great thing to put on my CV - I've got teamwork skills, thanks to my job, but organizational skills aren't exactly required, and lots of jobs - on the application or in the interview, ask for an example of how you organized something, and to that end: I have zilch. Zero. Nada. Plus, I really like photography. It can be frustrating at times, but it's fun and I enjoy it.

Still undecided on Mongolia. I should really email my tutor and ask for a reference letter. And write the application essay. And finish what I currently have of my CV. And look up my marks,

Also, haven't emailed the various zoos (I say 'various', I mean 'two'. Why must you have a lack of zoos, Ireland + Northern Ireland?) about work experience.

I have an essay due in next Friday. I've hardly started it - I've found some more articles that should hopefully be useful, though, so there's that. Actually, I should really have it submitted Wednesday night, as I'm going home on Thursday for the weekend...

I have a crush on someone, and it's really annoying. I can't stop thinking about him. It's driving me nuts. (This? Totally true, BTW. Not that I've been on a first date with another biologist, but I do it in my head all the damn time.) Anyway. Crush. Driving me nuts. I see him once a week - if even that, and not for very long, and he always seems to make it a point to say 'Hi' - or maybe he doesn't, and he's just being polite, and I'm projecting. I'm pretty sure my eyes don't turn into little hearts around him though so there is that.

... Dear sweet Lord, I'm pathetic. No wonder I can't get a boyfriend.

What else? A wasp appeared in my bathroom yesterday. Things that are WTF about this scenario: 1- It's February! 2- I live on the top floor of my halls (okay, there only are three floors). 3 - My bathroom is an ensuite with no windows. 4 - It is surrounded on all sides by other rooms. There is some kind of device in the ceiling that may be somehow related to some vent system, but no air seems to get in through it.

How did the wasp get in? Possibly it crawled up the drain, but I kind of doubt it. I am confused, and I hope very much that my bathroom does not decide to spawn any more insects.

... I did eventually manage to kill it, but only because it seemed hurt, or something, and I managed to drown it in the shower. And then I felt guilty about killing it. And then I had to work out how to get it out of my shower, without actually touching it (or really, going anywhere near it). Not fun times.

I started writing this entry well over an hour ago. I really need to go to bed. :/.

And hey, three days in a row! New record!

real life: ramblings, real life: resolutions
