(no subject)
I am so drained.
This week has kicked my butt. The not so positive side of my job is all the training that's required (although it IS paid). I spent every night this week from 5-10p.m. in Medication Certification Training. Basically, I am now legally able to "assist" the people we support at Hope House in taking their daily medication. Let's see, I've been through First Aid, Med. training, and Orientation Part 1, with CPR, and Orientation Part 2 soon to come. This week has been so entirely long, it seems like it should be Saturday (if only it was). Now if I could just make it through tomorrow's long shift, along with Saturday's short shift, I should be okay.
I miss my boyfriend. We never see each other anymore.
More and more lately I have wished that I didn't sit out a year after high school graduation before starting college. I could be in grad. school by now, closer to my Master's, and closer to feeling like I've accomplished something in all these year's of school. I guess it only hits me when old friends find me on Myspace and they're married and in their career and I'm like "yeah... still waiting on that Bachelor's!" I mean, I don't want to regret my decision to wait a year, because in that time I really worked my tail off and saved money and bought my first car. I mean, I worked for that first semester's tuition. Sometimes I just feel so left behind. Maybe I should just be happy with where I am and accept it, rather than complain and whine and compare myself to everyone else. Good idea.
Less than one week till my birthday! However, this year is different. I am no longer employed for a company that allows one to just request off for their birthday if they wish to do so. I mean, I guess I could, but I've only been there a month and requested off 2 days for Jared and Amber's wedding. So, there will be no time for a birthday celebration. I am getting old. It bites the big one. I want to be 10. Those were the good days.
Tired. Bed-time. Goodnight.
