Oh, life. What an odd time you are giving me right now.
Cons:
I now rent a small bedroom in Fullerton that also functions as an office/general junk room. Boxes of stuff are piled everywhere. The walls have small green splatters of paint everywhere that look like boogers. I kid you not. It's almost funny!
I'm working...a lot. Yesterday's 11.5 hour day was almost too much.
I feel very, very far away from my family, Mr. Ace, my friends. Living all over the place does that, I suppose.
Pros:
Said small-bedroom is only costing me $20/week. So I'm saving a ton of money that would normally go to rent/utilities/internet. Yay! I can also stay here as much as I want (unlike the constant moving between bosses' houses) without feeling like I'm intruding.
At least I'm paid hourly and not salary. And I have a job, and it's actually in my area of undergrad study. And it's a decent place with good people. It could be much worse.
All in all, I'm feeling very melancholy tonight, when I also feel like I have much to be grateful for. I bought some new (to me) Damien Rice music, and he always empathizes with me and helps me cope.
Sigh. I just hope that this phase of life will be over soon. I want Bird to decide if they are going to hire me or not, I want to have a place of my own, and I want to not be a rootless tree. I know that the grass is always greener on the other side, and I've got to try to be content with where I am now. I'll try, I am trying. I promise.
