I really do neglect this thing. My hand written journal, too. In a year, I've posted only 7 times.
This year, they really are in South Africa. At this time last year, I was happy to hang out with Nick alot and a year seemed forever away, but here it is and the time is dragging. I miss Nick alot, but it wouldn't be so bad if my whole family were in town during these three weeks. My mom and sister leave tomorrow and I'm in charge of three cats, one fish, my father and my grandmother. I'm looking forward to nights when I can just sleep.
Part of me really feels like quitting my job at the Writing Center. I'm only working there for a little while longer, just until my job at Cedars kicks in. It's only a week and a half more and possibly Saturdays until Fall when I won't be a fulltime student anyway, but the students are starting to get on my nerves more and more and more. Every time a person puts his or her name up on the board for help I cringe. Putdownthemarkerputdownthemarkeridontwanttohelpyouidontwanttohelpyou...Hi, what are you working on today? The fake perk is wearing me down.
I know it will be over soon. I know it's only 3 weeks, but it feels like forever and I'm tense because I graduated two weeks ago, had jury duty last week and am continuing to work work work work work and wake up everyday before nine even on weekends because there's always a reason like going to the beach with the family or filing something at UCLA or Cedars. It took two tries to get enough pee for a drug test but at least I didn't have to get poked or XRayed at my physical (but I did discover my right eye is weak).
13 days until I start my job
14 days until Ma and Sarah get back
18 days until Nikko is back
