Damn I feel like such a jerk...
I feel SO terrible for trying to get back in touch with people that I haven't talked to in a year or a few years or even over 5 years... and pretend I'm not trying to get something out of them until I can determine whether or not they would be willing and able to write me a good recommendation. I haven't gotten to the asking with any of them yet. I feel... manipulative, and I don't like it one bit. T_T Admittedly, they were all very nice people when I knew them, but, to me, it seems hard to keep in touch with someone that you had a very specific superior/inferior relationship (i.e. teacher/student boss/worker) with. It feels... uncomfortable. Like, I'm grown up and out of the circumstances of that relationship, so we *should* be on even footing with each other... but... *sigh* Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
Anyway... Damn I hate having to get recommendations. Especially about school. I don't want to think about it.
In other news, I actually got my account banned from Gaia Online. I am inordinately upset about this. T_T I was banned for offsite trading (specifically Gaia gold for translations because I didn't feel right taking real money as an amateur) and I wasn't even given a warning first. =/ I'm supposed to get a warning, damn it! Give me my account back, you bastards!! Wah! T_T
