Some bad stuff, but also some good stuff
Today started off kinda crappy, but it got better later.
I had to get up at 8:15, but that always happens on Wednesdays. Doesn't put me in a good mood to start off with, though. Then today at work, Bob made a comment about how he was gonna miss this job. And I asked where he was going, and he said that next week is his last week because they hired someone else. I asked where he's going after. He says Milwauke.
I literally wanted to cry all day long after that.
I'm so much more upset over this than I expected I'd be. I mean, I knew he was only a Temp at the mailcenter, but I guess I assumed he'd finish the semester. I guess I didn't expect him to leave so suddenly. And I'm really going to miss him. A lot. I figure I'll get him a goodbye card, and finally offer him a free movie at my theater, before he leaves. I don't even know if he's leaving right after the job is done, or a couple weeks later. I kinda hope that I get to hang out with him at least once before he leaves. I doubt it'll happen though.
I don't know why I'm feeling this strongly all of a sudden. Maybe dreaming about him messed with my head a little. Maybe it's just a really strong crush. But I can't help feeling like there's just a little bit of something between us. Maybe it's one sided, but I really feel like we have some kind of spark. We're always glancing at the other, grinning and making jokes and we make each other laugh all the time. And I think he's so cute. Especially his smile and his laugh. I don't care about the age difference, I really fucking don't. I just want him to stay here. With me.
Anyway, after all that happened, I had part of lunch with Kat, then went to Screenwriting. There was a woman from LA who came to talk to us about stuff, Susan Reiner. She was kinda scary, kinda helpful. Definitely will need to look for an agent at some point, maybe even suck it up and move to LA. But not if I don't have to. We'll see what happens in the next year or so, before I make any big moves. But my film presentation was low-key, quick and smooth. So that was good.
After class I opted to go home and take a nap, instead of dropping $10 at the dining hall when I wasn't really hungry anyway. In Sign Language we played Guess Who which was fucking awesome. I always loved that board game, and in Sign Language it's even more fun. My signing thing went okay I think. It felt like it went too fast, but I covered all the criteria. At least I'm pretty sure I did. After that I met up with Laura to go grocery shopping. I finally have groceries! Real groceries! Hooray!!
After groceries we went to see "Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind" which was fucking awesome. If nothing else, it's visually stunning, and the editing is amazing. But the story is also great, acting is fantastic, and it's just a great movie. I recommend it to everyone! Now I just have to see "Dawn Of The Dead" and I'll be all caught up on my list of movies I need to see. Laura offered to see it with me, but I don't want to make her if she doesn't really want to go.
Tomorrow Screenwriting is cancelled, so I can sleep extra late, have a nice breakfast, watch "Saved By The Bell" and then go to my one class, and come back home. I borrowed "Hero" from a girl in my class, and I'm so excited to watch it. I was almost gonna tonight, but I'm tired and figured I could wait until tomorrow. It's Chinese I think, with Jet Li. We watched part of it in class, and it looked amazing. There's a waiting list to borrow it from her...lol. I'm second to go.
So yeah, the day did get better after this morning. But I'm still incredibly bummed out. I hate things that end before they even had a chance. Even if the chance was only in my head.
