Moving: An examination of significant stress on the young woman's mind and body
So moving day is upon me. I'm really just writing this to see if it will make me feel better. I am really stressed out right now. There's a lot that's been bothering me, and if I'm taking it out on you, I apologize. Let's go in order:
1. Moving. What with working every day and actually needing sleep, it's a lot tougher than I thought to get everything in order. Yesterday I got some extra stuff for the apartment, but it really only boiled down to a soap dispenser, a trash can, and 4 glasses. I wanted to get a lot more than that, but it ended up being a totally wasted day. I did get most of my clothes sorted, so today I'm doing laundry. I really can't afford to be stuck in here all day when there's so much to get, but I'm thinking I can get some of the stuff I need on Sunday after the move. I guess right now the priorities are as follows:
- Clean all my clothes and get them in drawers for moving
- Go through all my clothes and give away shit I don't wear (again)
- Pack up my shoes
- Pack up all the little things around my room
- Get my room so that things can be taken out easily
I guess that's really not that bad, but it seems like a lot, when I have about 5 loads of laundry to do, and that's step one. I wish step one was easier! Then it'd be better.
2. MySpace. Get a load of this shit. I'm starting to get really annoyed with all the bullshit that goes on behind the scenes of MySpace. People take things SO OUT OF CONTEXT! Everyone's always whining about this and that and "why'd he do this" and "why am I not your #1?" bla bla BULLSHIT. I really don't deal well with whiners, and I really hate how people get so offended over NOTHING. I mean come on... it's a stupid website. Yeah it does have the characteristics of some sort of personal interaction, but really, if you saw people in person, they aren't gonna line you up in the order in which they like you, want to talk to you, or whatever. So I had to post a blog entry explaining my actions about ANOTHER blog entry, and yesterday I decided to post this disclaimer on my top 8 people's comments explaining why they are there and saying that they may not be there tomorrow. Honestly, I really just posted it to be a smartass but now it got taken all seriously and I think people are pissed off at me about it! I don't know why!? I'm just trying to say that this shit is retarded and it shouldn't have to come to this, but I guess I didn't say it clearly enough. So that's been annoying me too.
3. FINANCES. I am really worried about money recently. I don't really want to put all that online, but with moving out, I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to afford anything anymore. I don't think it'll be a big deal, but I want to keep saving something each paycheck, and I'm not sure if that's possible. So I am trying to get back at Chevy Chase for a part time job answering emails. I know they need help, and they wouldn't have to train me, so it's really a win-win situation.
4. STEALERS. My credit card number got stolen and is being used in California now. Great. So now I have to fill out all these fraud forms and contact credit bureaus and all kinds of shit I really don't have time to do. WHAT THE FUCK?!
5. My job. I still don't really know what I'm doing or what to tell people. It's not so bad once I get there, but I hate not knowing what I'm talking about. I still don't have all the access I need in order to fully learn what to do, and I still can't do any administrative work on servers, which is what I'm really looking forward to, but it's just getting to be a pain to ask people to do things for me. Don't get me wrong, I still really like the job and the hours are awesome... and the coworkers are (for the most part) great. It's just annoying that I don't know what the hell I'm doing. Maybe I'm catching on, but it doesn't feel like it.
That's about all for now. My laundry is done, so I better go get that.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (stress relieving scream)
