Update to life, again!
So my last post was a downer and I never posted the upper that happened after it. It wasn't an actual event or anything, just an attitude shift.
I realized that the reason it was feeling like high school was because I was acting like high school. Instead of approaching him with interest, I was being shy and stupid in the distance. I learned once again that I have to pursue what I want, instead of sitting around and being disappointed that it never happens.
I don't really know why I reverted to that mentality again after a year of being proactive, but I've learned my lesson at least. Instead of being disappointed and grumpy about this co-worker, I've started up a really good friendship with him instead, which I'm really happy about.
Work has been going better. I've been told I actually make more than the other interns... it's just weird with how they do checks. I don't know whether I completely believe them, but I'm holding onto the idea so I don't get angry again. I've also finally been given a scenery project instead of random things so I'm incredibly happy to be finally building something that matters. Plus we finally got music in the shop!!
And I've managed to get both my roommates deep into Leverage with me. I'm enjoying every moment of that, and they're watching Buffy and Angel for the first time, so I get to enjoy rewatching those too.
Things have basically just been going better... though my money has gone for the month, which explains all the ads on my journal. Oh well. Next month I get two checks in the space of one week which will help me quite a bit. :)
