(no subject)
So yesterday was my last day at work :( I must admit that I did come home and cry for a bit. just a bit. :D I really did like working there...most of the times lol. I loved everyone in AC and i adored working with all the animals and helping them see that not everyone is going to beat you or starve you. Working with the abused/neglected animals was the most rewarding thing i've ever done in my life. it was so fullfilling and for once in my life i actually felt like i was important and needed. i really hope that the feeling stays because i don't want to be the person i was before i started working there. I left a note telling Kelly that if they need help on the weekends or on holidays to give me a call and i'd see how my schedule looked. I'm also going to stay on the exotic animal comitee so i guess i will still have an effect on animals lives, plus i'll still be able to see everyone :P
University is going to start pretty soon. i'm super nervous but also uberly excited!!!! I've already got my ID and all my books, and becuase i'm a nerd i've already started reading and taking notes on one of sociology books i have to read. It's pretty good, definitely not something i would ever pick out myself and read but it's not one that i wouldn't recommend to someone else. It's about a white man in the late 1950's who decides to see what it's truley like for the black community to live in the south. He decides to take anti-vitiligo drugs and sit under a UV light to change the color of his skin temperarily while he travels to different parts of the south. It's the author's journal and it's very thought provocing (sp?). i decided to read and take notes now so that if i'm swamped when we actually HAVE to read it i'll be all set to give it a quick re-read to refresh my memory and that'll be all.
EXCITING NEWS!!! i'm going in on the 31 of august for a tattoo consultation!!!! i'm going to see if it'll scar and what colors would be best to use (some can cause severe allergic reactions, and since i have sensitive skin i figured i should get the tattooists opinion on that matter). I'm going to get a small scarab beetle (proabably on my foot) to start off with. it's small, so if it does scar it won't be so terribly noticable, and i could hide it easily. Plus the scarab beetle is something that holds a huge connection to egypt and i think it's a very appropraite tattoo especailly since i've decided that i'm going to follow my life-long dream after all. plus, i'm doubting many beetle have beetle tattoos, so it'll be more "original". i'm totally excited about it. my parents are going to be completly pissed but i don't really care. if this one works out ok then i'll get another one that i've wanted for some time now. yay!
so i was going to write something out but i totally forget what it was so i'm just going to end this post now. i'll be camping from tghe 17th-26th so after i come back i'll post some pictures and write another entry.
