I can't believe that this account is going in and out at this time. I was going to make two entries, but I might have time to make all of my stuff into one. I don't know if it will publish or not though since they keep turning it on and off, but I will try my best.
My life, as I think I have mentioned earlier, has become quite hectic. I didn't have time to kick back and examine my life like I wanted to. I'm not so worried about my current occupational duties since I think that I will stay in programming and study the videos and hopefully pass the proficiencies. I do have an interview at 6 p.m. today with the newspaper for a five hour position. I know that it is going to take up a lot of my life (from what I have been told) but I am willing to see if it works out. Besides, it's an interview and it doesn't necessarily mean that they will or will not hire me. If they do, then I will get to decide if I want to make it a 10 hour position and also make some extra money and have people read what I have written. If they don't, then I at least tried and won't have to worry about taking on an extra responsibility.
I went to "The Mousetrap" auditions last night, but since I couldn't speak with a British accent, I didn't audition. My friend did but did not get a call-back, however, it does not mean that she wasn't chosen. Maybe, she was so good that they did not need for her to test out her skills again. If it was a Scottish play, however, then I would definately be all over it. I think I am having a relapse of the sickness since last night during dinner, so I also didn't feel physically able to audition.
I was up until past midnight doing homework. My professors (most of them) seemed to care about whether or not I was fine. One professor said that people should not take Nyquil. That stuff is fun though! Being knocked out and then spending the next day all loopy and disconnected from the world. I know, bad grammar, but I don't care right now.
I guess all of you were waiting for my annual Valentine's Day rant huh? Well, this year I have decided that this rant would be different. First of all, I realized that if you can't be happy without a guy, then you can never be happy with a guy. Does it remind you of what John Candy said in "Cool Runnings" in relation to gold medals? Frankly, I don't care about Valentine's Day anymore. In my opinion, it's just a Halmark holiday that gives people an excuse to spend money. Valentine's Day is a great idea, don't get me wrong, but shouldn't love be celebrated everyday or on a day that is not designated? Wouldn't that mean more to someone and also become a pleasant surprise?
Ironically, I think Eros is trying to screw with me once more. With me, love is mainly unrequitted. Either I will want someone who doesn't want me, or someone will want me and I do not want them. Nothing personal in some situations. It could be as unpersonal as the fact that I am too overwhelmed with other things in life (*Cough, Dev, Cough*). I don't feel strongly about the guys that I know in this region. Now, I bet you are wondering why I am talking about this right? Well, here is a very funny story where Eros wants to mess with me.
I invited two guys to watch a movie with me almost a week ago. One I invited because I really wanted to hang out with him. I invited a second one so the first guy would not feel lonely and I wanted to be nice. The second guy is cool, but you will see where I am going with this (yes, foreshadowing...sp?). The first guy had to leave early, so I signed him out and me and the second guy hung out in my room. He began to make himself comfortable by laying his head on the edge of my bed. We laughed at something and he rubbed my knee with his thumb for a few seconds. That was when I started becoming suspicious.
At first, I didn't think too much about it. I was suspicious, but I wasn't too worried. Two days ago, he calls me and asks me if I want to watch a play with him. He has NEVER done that before. I didn't feel like watching a play that day with him (the suspicion rose and I didn't want to give him the wrong impression) so I told him that I was going to a dance with a friend because of an assignment for her class (and she was the one who got the medicine for me to heal from the stomach virus). Well, we set it up for next weekend and I went straight to my college twin to talk to her about it.
She told me that he was very clingy. He has done similar things to her and some of her friends. Man! I really do not care much for people who are clingy like that. People who are desperate and will attatch to anyone that they think they can get at chance with does bother me (not to mention that I am not attracted to him in that way). Still think that I'm paranoid? Today, he yelled my name and I waved at him from 15 yards away (I think). I went into the building and all of a sudden, he's behind me! He's not even suppose to be heading in my direction! He asks me when I am having dinner. I told him that I wasn't sure and he said that he would wait for me. I wanted to eat dinner with my college twin so I would not be alone with him (which is what she advises), but I could not find her, so instead I am skipping dinner (at least, until 6:30 if not the whole time, so I can hang out with another friend to talk about a play). I have a job interview anyway, so that is what I am using as my excuse.
In other words, I am still showing one of the signs of illness. I am still unsure about my future. I have some sort of "stalker" trying to hook up with me (possibly). I don't care about Valentine's Day anymore. I can't do a British accent, but I can do a darn good male, Scottish accent (watch out Connery and Gibson). All in all, I need to check my mail.
