wow it's been a while...

we went to see Stardust the other night with Liz and Dave. OMG! Such an incredibly funny movie! I can't remember how many times the whole theatre just burst out laughing. It was great. Not what I expected at all, but oh so much better. if any of you were debating watching it, you totally should go!

Well, it's official - I'm off until Thanksgiving, and then back to school until April... I should try to find work for August and September, but what's the likelihood of getting a job when you know it's just for 2 months? I might try the temp agencies downtown, or see if my old company has a translation contract that needs to be filled. Otherwise, ( Read more... )

I'm moving out of downtown!!! JD saw a place for rent in their area, and we went to see it, and we took it and I'm so freakin excited to be moving out of downtown!!!

Well, it's been a tough couple of weeks, but I finally made it into school yesterday, and spoke to my prof and program coordinator. Both were very supportive, and I think things may work out ok in the end ( Read more... )

I'm such an idiot! I really need to stop procrastinating and do work as it's assigned... I just spent pretty much all weekend at the school working on the big project chunk that's due tomorrow.I was actually a bit ahead when we started this section, but then I thought, hey, i can go home early, I'm ahead... until it hit that it was due this monday ( Read more... )

i think i need to stop working during school. it's just getting really hard to keep up, and I'm already behind on both. why does it always have to come down to money, though... I don't like things to be so tight, and putting everything on borrowed money, especially after having worked so long to pay down ym debt. I don't know...

I don't think I've mentioned lately how stupid I am... Over the past several years, I haven't gotten around to diong my taxes. The first year there was a legit reason, and then I just needed to those, before I did each subsequent year, and kept putting it off. Since receipts are only valid for income taxes for 5 years, and I hadn't yet filed my ( Read more... )
