I just got back in town today after being home for about 5 days, and I guess you could say the trip wasnt everything I expected. I knew that things were going to be rough at home with my sister and her jealousy, but I didnt know that it was going to be that bad. I couldnt get a congratulations from anyone without her stepping in and saying what was going on in her life. For just a minute I wanted to continue my glory moment and not have it taken away. People want to know what a college graduates next plans are and not what their sister is doing these days. I know that she wants some recognition, but honestly do you think it is ok to butt in and take away my happiness?
I got to see my friend Brian while I was home and that was amazing. He rocks my socks and makes me smile. I wish that I could see and talk to him a lot more than what I do now. Hopefully he can come up and see me in the spring when he is on break from school. For the first time ever in my life, I watched Office Space...that is a good movie! It was nice to just sit and talk to him about things that we want to happen over the next few years. I am so proud of him, I never thought he would be where he is today from how he was in high school.
Lets see, probably one of the worst nights home was last night when I went to get some drinks with a couple of people from high school. I realized that I am very comfortable where I am, and I enjoy the friends I have here in Bowling Green. Drinking with these people was just not the same as drinking with people from here...I like it here better. Maybe it was the places we went to, maybe it was the conversations we were having, maybe it is just that I went to a state school and am not in grad school yet. You would have to understand the background of all of these people to understand why it wasnt the greatest time. I am super proud of myself and truly do enjoy all that I am doing now, and it wasnt that they degraded me for it, I just wasnt up to their levels. I am sure that one day I will get there, until then I will just remain living this life with a smile on my face. It just truly sucked when my best friend looked at me and said I guess we havent talked in a while, well we havent, but if she would ever return my phone calls or ims, then maybe we would talk more. It was nice though to see some people and catch up with them, just makes me realize how interesting my 10 year reunion from high school will be. I cant believe that it has already been 5 years.
In other happy news...my apt is coming along nicely. I have my desk up now so that I dont have to sit in a big chair and have my monitor on top of the little fridge. I like having it all in one place and not having to move everything around. I was supposed to wash all of my pots and pans tonight before I put them away, but I really didnt feel like it so before I use them I will was them. I hate doing dishes, and I feel like that is all I ever do around here. I still have to unpack my clothes from home and what not. I also have a bookshelf in pieces on my floor right now becuase I dont have the right screwdriver here. Hopefully a nice friend will let me barrow one, or will just come over and put it together for me. Leaves me something to do when I am here, that is for sure.
Work is getting a lot more involved for me, which is a very good thing. I feel like I have homework and will always be doing something as far as work goes. Monthly I have something due and I have other things to get done while I am here at home. Tomorrow I think I am getting the crew calendar to put together and what not. I have to get things ready for my January incentive program, I have it all planned out, now I just have to get my end of things ready to go. I really am starting to like my job more that I have other responsibilities outside of work!
Alright, I think I have sat here long enough and stared at this small print long enough...time for bed. Night all, be good and lots of love,
Jess
