real life is overrated
I nver update this thing, but I don't feel like the only one. Life happens and it really sucks. Not much has been going on, however. It's finally cold. About damn time. We even had sleet. It just pisses me off that it gets warmer and warmer, and no one seems to get that it's because we are killing the environment. My dad is currently in spokane, wa for business and I am so jealous. He's got snow and rain and highs of 20 degrees. So not fair. Of course he's pissed since he's all pro the sun.
Let's see, in other news...Christmas and birthday came and went, which I am eternally grateful for. I hate Christmas and I hate my birthday just as much. If you ever have the option of working at a mall during the holidays I would like to suggest that you don't do it, because I did and became the angriest person alive.
Now that it is January, I've become incredibly lethargic and unable to motivate myself. I don't understand why you have to start a brand new year right after the holidays. All of December is spent stressing over family, gifts, money, food, and then you have to try to wipe the slate clean a week later and become this 'insert your own resolution here' type person. I need a vacation from vacation. Why can't we be like the Chinese and celebrate the new year a little later? What's wrong with saying "I just spent 2 weeks in retail/family hell and I would like to not feel like a failure for not wanting to exercise and diet immediately." What's difficult about that?
I do hope that everyone had a good holiday/new year. I got into a wreck on new year's day, which accounts for a lot of my "clean slate" bitterness. Nothing major, and we didn't even deal with insurance, but it was my fault cause my breaks suck, and I went with the guy to a body shop and paid to have his bumper fixed. $150. Meh.
I am looking toward taking the GRE for grad school. I hate taking tests. I'm really bad at it. But I have to do it, so there's that. I even got off my ass today and went to my alumni and requested transcripts. go me. I've started looking intently at George Mason University. Which, I need to pose the question to cantbesilent...Is that a good school? I mean, I've been a frequent visitor of the website and talk to the administration people and the department heads, so that's been nice, but overall, is it worth it?
I would have to move to DC, which is fine since I still want to move to DC. I think I could be a much happier person if I were to go back to school. GMU seems to have everything I'm looking for including a master's degree in art history. I need to talk to my cousin about a living situation, since she is living in capitol hill. I have no idea how they handle the out-of-state requirements since the dc/va/md area are all separate districts and states.
I'm finally gonna see Dreamgirls tonight. I can't believe that my musical ass hasn't been. And as for musicals, I will probably be doing summer theatre again this year. Except the line up really sucks. South Pacific, Thoroughly Modern Millie (the only good one), Seussical (WTF?), and Children of Eden. And that's all I've got to say about that. Nothing really interesting going on, but I guess that's better than the extreme drama that takes up residency in my life.
