I'm home.
There is no work.
Those of you who had jobs to come home to are lucky. Me and many others cannot find work. It sucks. I planned to buy a car this summer, guess not!
Another year of having to bum rides. I hate it.
Totally dependent on the whims of others. Gerard complaining about "toting me around" all the time. Well, his grandmother bought him a car, there isn't anyone to buy me one!:(
It's nice to actually take a vacation, because I really need it. I deserve it after a school year during which I had permanent under eye circles, and everything besides me came first.
Still, I hate the idea of turning 20 years old in August, and not being able to run out and get a coffee by myself. At least at school the coffee place is within walking distance.
I vaguely feel like a failure for not having summer work. But I guess I know it is stupid to feel that way. I got all A's at school, got inducted into the International English Honors Society. I got an award for being the best CA in my building. Next year, I am practically going to school for free, and I have an apartment. I'm an ACA, and a Writing Center Consultant. That's two hard to get, awesome jobs. I don't get why I feel like such a failure. I need to stop having the need to be productive. I ran myself into the ground this past school year, and I need to take to take it easy. I guess this is the world's way of making me take a break?
I just wish I could convince myself that it's okay to take some time off. It's probably normal. I mean, some people take semesters off, or don't go to college right off, etc. I've just plowed straight through, and it's been hard. I need to make my peace with relaxing.
