I still wish you the best, with a "fuck you"...
Hello Internet!
Just chilling out today - I do the schedule now, so guess who gets Fridays and Saturdays off! I'd feel a little guilty, if Kate didn't also do it. So I just call it "pulling a Kate", and if people complain, I tell them they can do the damn schedule. But seriously, good things happen when you make the schedule. Like your manager sees how awesome you are and gives you a $2.50 raise. Yessssss.
So work is going well, you may have guessed. Personal life is still sadly hopeless, but I'm working on it. I'm working on not being so sad about it, I guess. It's a slow process.
In other news - went to see Harry Potter with Petra, Trevor and Natasha last night, and that was a lot of fun. It was nice to see Natasha again, I feel like it's been ages! But it was a sad movie, because it was a sad book. I'd forgotten a lot of what went on (such as a specific death that I maintain I blocked out in my grief - PTSD, look it up!), but I think that was better so I could just take in the movie on its own. I don't think I can handle reading the book again, but I'd like to. I'll just need a case of tissues or something.
I've been continuing to think about applying for grad school. I still really like the idea of going to Ireland, but I'm terrified to apply. What if they don't accept me? I did pretty well in my program, but some of my electives (especially in first and second year) really pulled me down. And they use this system I'm totally unfamiliar with! So I don't even know if I meet their requirements. And what if they just plain don't like me, because I wasn't a part of anything? Don't they say you should be part of clubs or some such nonsense? I don't know. So I'm afraid I'll apply and get my hopes up and they'll tell me to leave their damn country alone. So that's scary. And the thought of going so far away from home is scary, even if it's just for a year. And I'd have to take out a student loan or something, and that will be a bitch to pay off. Ugh.
Ok, end of my insecure rant. Sorry to subject you guys to that.
