Things are going well. I'm so fortunate to be working at Maxim. I've raked in enough money just during the summer to pay for tuition and rent at school. Also, this is truly a big booster to my resume! Also, I really like all the chemical engineers (my co-workers) which is a huge difference than last year where I didn't like the civil engineer, the biologist, the other biologist...I guess this really is my field. Chemical engineers are great!
I've lost 10 pounds because I use my bike to get to work every day. The distance is 10 miles a day with massive hills so that's 50 miles covered a week! Don't worry, I'll gain it all back when I get to school. I don't want to seem _that_ small.
I guess the other thing is because a cat lives with Emily, I'm getting rashes on my legs and arms. It's very itchy and annoying. It sucks that I'm allergic to cats likes this. *sniffle* *sneeze!* *scratch* *scratch*
And I've really decided (now that I've tried it) that relationships are not for me. I'm way too picky and there's no way I compromise for others when it comes to my personality or behavior. If there's no compromise, then there's no (healthy) relationship. And the benefits of love don't make it worth it for me.
Actually, I am not one to work for rewards like pleasure or happiness so that makes love worth nill. I work for accomplishment and quantifiable gain (like GPA, money, awards, etc.) and these I can get without a lover.
