It has been an obscene amount of time since I've written in this thing. I've had about a billion things on my mind so now seems like as good a time as any. Hope I don't bore you all too much.
This semester has been a little strange. So many people are abroad which makes me a little sad I never went but I know it doesn't work well with my program and I'll have plenty of time after college. It's just still sad to hear all their fun stories and knwo I'm stuck in this life here in DC. Not that life here is terrible, but this semester has been emotionally trying.
For the first time in college my living situation is actually really good. I moved into a shittier building but with someone I actually know and like. Jodee and I see far too much of each other between living here, working, and classes but its still working out well. It's nice not feeling out of place in my own room. And she's been here for me through all my retarded drama which I appreciate to no end.
The most trying part has been work related actually. A couple months ago I interviewed with one of the Big 4 accounting firms for a summer internship, which is an amazing opportunity. A couple of my classmates also did this, along with Jodee. For some reason, even though I looked best on paper, I was the only one not get the job. I've thought of a million reasons why this may have happened but it still sucked a lot. My ego took a blow I wasn't prepared for. I still have my current job which is nice and I've applied to some other firms who may want me, but I really wanted this so it was hard to handle, especially because I'll be living with Jodee while she gets to do it. I'm happy for her though. I'm pretty much guaranteed for the next summer since I'm going for a 5th year and most of the firm want interns between senior year and grad school b/c of stupid credit requirements to get a CPA. But enough of that boring shit. Just wanted to bitch about it for a minute.
On to boys.. because we know theres always something with that. I'm dating someone now. Thats a weird statement. Never been in this situation before. Either have had a boyfriend or a hookup, not dating. I kinda like it though. He's 30, which I know is a little iffy but when I hang out w/ him I'm really happy. We met at a bar like a month or so ago and hit it off after that. It's still very casual but I like how things are. I think I like him more than he likes me which sucks but it keeps it more interesting. I get bored when I have someone who act exactly how I want them to. A couple people liked me earlier this year and I got bored of them in a day. As shady as I know this may be it feels ok. I even told my mom about him. She didn't freak out which was nice. I don't think shes thrilled but she understands its something I'm gonna do and see what happens.
School has been beyond stressful. I've never felt so overwhelmed in my life. I was calling out of work to do schoolwork it got so bad, which of course annoyed my bosses. I took on way too much this semester and I'm paying for it. I need to learn my limits becuase I've had a couple nervous breakdowns this semester, and that was not pretty. I just need to get to May 12 and it'll be all over. I can't wait for that.
Well I guess thats enough. Just had some free time and wanted to ramble about shit for a while.
