I'm experiencing something I haven't experienced in... Well... Ever. Joblessness without choice. It's really strange to be forced out of employment. Really strange. It's never happened before, and for such a (for lack of better words) fuckin' lame reason. I'm fervently looking for a new job, not that I'm 100% hurting from the lack of one. However, with the steadily increasing gas prices or the inconveniently far location of UNF, a job would help... A lot.
However, in the wake of my unemployment, I've found the time to spend more time reflecting inward. I've found myself working out more, writing more, spending more time to myself. It's nice. It's a nice change from the hustle and bustle of being a full-time student, part-time employee, and dedicated actress all at once. Right now, I've got one commitment other than that to my own self-improvement, and that's biology class. And hey, I ain't doin' half bad in that either, folks. I'm not getting an A in the class, but it's far better than what I've done in the past as far as science goes. I'm not ashamed to say it's a short coming in my academic career. Really, I know. TRUST ME.
Honestly though, there's only so much of this me time I'll be able to handle before I go crazy. As much as I'm getting a lot done as far as inward and outward remodeling on the entity that is "Ronica", I miss being busy. Like forreal busy. I truly do miss waking up and opening the store, going to class right after work, and ending the night with a late night rehearsal only to start again the next day. All of that stuff was for me too, but it was having me time with other people. I didn't have to deal with the occasional loneliness of being "un-busy".
Well, let's just keep our fingers crossed for this interview, k?
