The Office is the perfect solution to any ache or ailment.
A week into winter quarter and already I'm staying up too late and not getting all my homework done. And I only have two quarters left! Why is the last leg of the race the toughest? I'm only taking 14 credits too, this should be easy. And I have Cascade. And photo gigs. And my internship with evo.
Totally got the internship with evo :-) They contacted me the day after my interview asking if I'd join them for an internship. I started screaming and jumping around all excitedly when I read the email. The girliest I've ever been since I was eight years old, probably.
I love working there. All the people are chill, I write descriptions and make size charts for all this sweet equipment and apparel and it's just totally my environment. It's interesting though; some days at the office are fun and upbeat and others are quiet and serious. While I'm getting to know and love the people in my office (the creative office), I find it difficult to meet anyone else since our office is so far removed.
The last and only time I integrated with the others was during the Christmas party, which happened to be my third day of work. It was real fun; food, drinks, a fruitcake-eating contest and a company-wide sake bomb. But ultimately I still felt very much like the new kid. The new kid who got second place in the fruitcake eating contest.
I'm going to work my ass off and hope against hope and pray I'll get some sort of job out of this once the internship is over. Jeremy, a friend of mine who was also an intern there and works in customer service and is also an SPU student and works on Cascade with me sort of has a job out of his internship. He had a graphic design internship and they're asking him to stay on as a graphic designer for as long as they need him. I was real happy for him when I found that out. Sometimes when he's working in customer service and I'm working in the office we talk to each other via yahoo messenger. It's a highlight to my day since most of it is spent staring at the computer screen anyway.
The other interns are great though, as are my two superiors. Everyone is just themselves and fun and chill, a place I'm very happy to work at. I can listen to music while I work or drink hot chocolate from the kitchen, win win win.
Wow, I really should sleep. I'm tiiiired.
I hate hate hate that my heart sunk a little when I found out he's in a relationship. After all this time, after the discovery that he's an asshole, that I really was wasting my time there....there was still a little quickening of my pulse when I saw that. Dammit. I think it was mainly because I just wish it could have been me in the relationship first. That way I could have shown him somehow what he missed out on, that I am worth something more than an occasional smoke break and a car ride to the middle of bumfuck nowhere.
Arrrgh.
I wish it wasn't true what they say.
