In which things begin to settle
I've been working at Kids Club for three weeks now and Kohl's for four. I am actually really loving working freight at Kohl's. I get to wear jeans and sneakers. I'm active, moving around constantly, and the time just flies by. This week, though, is the opening so I'm going to be working as a cashier for two days, including the grand opening morning sale day. Yeah... Wednesday, Thursday, Friday are going to be 11 hour days between Kohl's and Kids Club. Joy. It shouldn't be too bad and at least I start one hour before opening which is good because I have no experience on their system. I was hired and trained for freight (unloading trucks) but at least it's only two days, I doubt I'll cause too many problems in that amount of time (knock on wood). Kids Club is good. Some days are just standing around, making sure the kids don't break rules/each other so it feels kind of boring. I realized that I get bored really easily, so that could explain my multitasking and having a million projects I want to do. But at Kids Club, it's not as active (for me) as I'd like. It's not a bad job or anything, I'm just not fully suited for it.
I'm actually keeping up with TV fairly well right now. It has helped having Tuesday afternoon always off and multiple hours between my Kohl's and Kids Club shifts. (Not this week though, I'll have an hour between which will be spent rushing home to grab a snack and change pants/shoes.) Also, weekends help. I was so caught up this weekend I started True Blood. Only seen two episodes so far but liking it. Also, watched some Gilmore Girls and I realized how much I miss that show.
I plan on doing that 7 Day Meme next week, too busy this week to think that hard. Haha. Oh, I have an iPhone, yay! She is shiny and pretty and I love her. Her name is Kiara. I have minutes again that I need to use up so I need to find out who I can call who isn't on AT&T because calling other AT&T customers is free, damn it.
I have a new plan for my future. I want to get another BA, this time in Psychology, then continue on for my masters. At that point, I'll consider how much I like the subject and what advantages I'd have with a PhD over a Masters and look into PhD programs. If I ever become a teacher of any sort, it's going to be a college professor. I rather deal with people who pay to be in school than kids who have to be there and hate it. Also, I much rather teach psych than English. But my idea #1 is becoming a forensic psychologist. Yes, I understand what it entails and I still find it an appealing idea. Actions are being taken to get me towards that goal and I even have backup ideas. My friend, rocketryreverie, is hoping to go to Fullerton (CSU) next year and I hope to follow along. So I will be applying but if that doesn’t work, I hope to still move down there and continue to work while reapplying. I may even see about community colleges nearby, just to get some classes done and get back in the class taking groove. *crossing fingers*
I think that’s all I have to say for now. I’ll try to do my best with keeping things updated. I’m also totally behind on ST fics and flist fics and yeah, sorry. I think I’m a bit burnt out from ST fic overload so other than random ones on my flist, I won’t be reading them like I did before. I’m actually in a Stargate or Gilmore Girls mood (which means I really want more of mhalachaiswords’s The Physics of the Spin because it’s SG/GG and beautiful). Le sigh. Okay, time to do productive things. Maybe even read some fic while I watch more GG, because I can half watch it since I’ve already seen each episode at least once, if not twice or more.
