mostly work
Ugh, things.
I got a full time position at work a few weeks ago, and started just about two weeks ago now (only two more weeks until a full time paycheck!). Ugh, it's exhausting. Instead of sleeping properly since I'm working more than double what I was, I still go to sleep at 3am even though I have to get up at 8am more than half the week. I also find that I now need more work clothes since I'm no longer wearing them only 4 hours most days. Unfortunately, neon is in? And I am not wearing neon colored clothing to work.
The best thing about being full time is that I finally get things to do at work aside from "sit at the desk and help customers". I even get to run one of our book clubs! The first meeting (for me) was tonight, and it was pretty good! The book made it kind of difficult and the people (all 4 of them) wouldn't rise to the comments I hoped that they would, but it still went alright. All of them are nice, anyway. I've got books chosen by my predecessor until December, so it's going to be awhile before we can do anything I find interesting. Once we can, though, I'm totally going to make them read some comics. I think they will not appreciate it but I kind of don't care.
Done with classes again and somehow continuing a bizarre 4.0. This is the first semester where that has bothered me a little. It's clear that some of the professor aren't really grading assignments. There are certainly no comments, and almost everyone just gets a straight 100% on almost everything. I feel like the modicum of effort I'm putting into it is almost too much. At least I still feel like I'm learning things in most of the classes. Four classes left. I'm not sure how I'm going to do them anymore, either. I might still do two next spring, but I'm probably going to take this summer and fall off. I don't really want to, but I don't want to get overwhelmed with the wedding planning and trying to still sleep somewhere in the vicinity of 8 hours most nights.
In preparation for engagement pictures I ordered a bunch of dresses off of modcloth. The sizing was a pain and most of the things I tried were two short or just fit awkwardly. I learned that I have a long waist (or low?), and that makes things even more annoying. I found one really good one, though, and free shipping and returns is the best invention ever. However, modcloth might be the worst invention ever because at least 50% of the dresses that come up there are cute, and 25% are ones I would buy but only 5% are ones that will fit me properly.
I also redyed my hair the same color but it turned out waay darker, and got a hair cut that wasn't short enough so I shortened it up myself and I'm kind of unsure about it now. It seems alright in length (no hugely weird chunks as far as I can tell or anyone will tell me), but the layers and ends of it aren't right (none and blunt cut). I even brought 360 degrees of pictures from my good last hair cut! Ah, well.
That's enough things for today!
