work woes and school blues
Le sigh.
So Spring Break is over and it's back to classes. Uuuuuuugh.
I just hate school, I think. Like, as a whole.
The thing is, three of my classes are totally interesting and enjoyable. I'm taking freaking Tolkien & Lewis for crying out loud. What gets better than that? (A class on Harry Potter but that's neither here nor there.) Still, it's like, I can't be bothered to care. I wake up, and I think, "ugh, do I really want to drive for 20 minutes to go to French for an hour and then sit in the library for two hours before T&L?" And it sucks. Because I'm so incredibly unmotivated.
And work just sucks al over the place. I switched shifts with Teresa this weekend, because she requested off but didn't get it. So I took her 7-11 shift, but she took my 8-4. I haven't had a decent 8 hour shift in forever! And because they cut cafe hours down, which I really hope is just temporary, I'm only working 3 hour shifts during the week and it's almost not worth using the gas to do it because that's pretty much all I'm making, the gas money to drive there. And it's like I can't win. I can only work 1 day per weekend because I need the other to do homework and papers and laundry and whatnot, but now weekend nights are so damn short. So I mean, if they can start giving me 8 or 9 hour weekend shifts then maybe the 3 hour shifts during the week won't be so bad, but if I keep getting stuck with nothing but 3 or 4 hour shifts...I'm gonna have to look elsewhere because I just can't afford it.
...the Internet & car insurance bills came today, which is what inspired this rant.
I dunno. I'm just feeling really blue lately. And I absolutely cannot wait until the last week of April. And I know it's not far away, but it seems so far off. Because last week of April is finals week so I'll be done SO EARLY this semester. And then I can open my work availability WAY up, and actually start to make some extra money. I just don't know how to make these next two months on like, $50 paychecks.
Anyway, just needed to vent, because Danita had stuff to do on her break and I haven't seen her in a while and I wanted someone to vent to but she couldn't hang out so...I was all by my lonesom for two hours in the library. But now I must get some tea or coffee or some other delicious drinky drink and be off to class.
