I recently read a book called Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can't Stop Talking, by Susan Cain, and basically this book has explained so much about myself. I think I have a much better understanding of who I am, and I really wish the entire world would just read this book so I wouldn't have to keep explaining myself. And also maybe ( Read more... )

So yeah, it's been a while. Graduated about a month ago, have been working since then. Still no real job offers or interviews. Really not a lot has changed, except I have actually less free time because of work, despite the fact that I no longer have homework. Oh yeah, and the diploma ( Read more... )

Spending the days leading up to Thanksgiving at work. No one would take my shift Thurs at 8pm, so I'm stuck here til Fri morning. Might as well make a huge paycheck out of it, so I'm working 28 hours this week, mostly night shifts which might be double-time for the holiday. Sweet ( Read more... )

For the past four or five days I haven't been hungry. At all. The thought of food is, in fact, a little gross at the moment. I'm not sure what could have caused this. My sleeping schedule is so out of whack though, it might be my body freaking out. I'm exhausted ALL THE TIME. I get full nights of sleep and it doesn't feel like enough. I fall asleep ( Read more... )

We got fake blood poured all over us, a mixture of ( Read more... )

Happy Boxing Day!!

This has actually been one of the nicer Christmases. My mom's side of the family got Christmas Eve, so we all crowded into my aunt Eileen's house. We've never had Christmas at her house before, mostly because she hasn't lived there very long but also because it's a pretty small house. There's really only 3 rooms, all connected, ( Read more... )

Going home for the weekend!! First time so far this year, very exciting ( Read more... )

 So I went and asserted my independence by taking a Greyhound to Cleveland all by myself. That's pretty awesome. 'm not sure if I'll do it again anytime soon though, cuz there were a few scary moments when I wondered if I'd actually get a seat on the bus or not. I met people, some crazier than others. Most of them were really nice. The people who ( Read more... )

First full day in Dayton, and now that I'm here this isn't so bad. I have a good roomate and way more space than I ever did last year. We have a kitchen and a dining room. This is actually pretty sweet ( Read more... )
