Argh!
I'm really pissed at myself. So, on Sunday afternoon while working I watched bits and pieces of Signs. Why, I don't know? I've only seen it once before and it gave me nightmares for a week. I'm such a nerd. I don't know why it freaks me out so bad, but it scares me to think of something like that really happening. So basically, I went to bed at around 11:30, but didn't fall really asleep until somewhere around 2 or 2:30. Then I had to wake up early to go to the zoo to observe a school lesson.
And right now, I know awhile back I was debating on applying for that keeper position here at our zoo. Well there's an apprentice trainer spot open at San Francisco Marine World at their wild life theater. So, I'm sorta thinking, why not? If I were to get it, it'd be great expirence. And I'd be doing what I want to do ('cept not with marine mammals) and there'd be no swim test. So perhaps once SW had a spot open up when I'm ready to pass the swim test I'd have some good expirence behind it. And if I don't get it. Well, life goes on. I don't know what to do next fall. I'm so confused. Internship in Oregon would be my top choice, but the applications aren't even due until like August first and I'd need to let SW know if I was staying on there or not. And I really need to do an internship in the fall so I can get college intern credit. I don't know what to do? My top 4 choices are: Oregon Zoo (volunteer living w/ mom), Staying at SW and getting into Animal Training Eventually (but where's my internship credit?), Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium Marine Mammal Internship (volunteer, I'd need money to live off of. Where do I get this non-existance money), or maybe...the Training Internship at the Miami Seaquarium (it'd be good hands on expirence, but still, working there, I just don't know if I can...).
Anyway, I need to go do something productive. Like take a nap. Or perhaps clean, or start my paper.
