Yay! School is back! Now I don't have to feel like such a lazy piece of crap all the time again. I can actually work on something productive for a change.
I'd never imagine that I'd ever WANT summer to end. Mine... It kinda... well... sucked. I had a lot of shitty stuff happen, but I guess it went by fast enough. For some reason I was really upset for the longest time that I had to go back to school. I have some sort of weird anxiety issue with not having enough time to do fun stuff. Just as soon as I made my mind that I wanted to leave the U of A with a degree, I spent my monday getting ahead in all my classes. Now I just tell myself that fun isn't the only aspect of life, and that I need to focus my energies on productive things too. That mind set seems to be really helping out my ability to focus on work and get it done. Funny how little things like that can change your whole life.
I still don't know what to do about the whole Joey and Nikki situation. Derek told me not to long ago he talked to Nikki and she sounded like she just flat out hated me. That's pretty depreessing, especially since we've known eachother since freshman year at Vail, in that stupid afterschool thing, Something of the Mind... I haven't seen her on campus yet, but I have this strange feeling I will, and it's just going to be an akward moment that only reinforces my guilt for having blown up on Joey. I do feel that a lot of what I said was unnecessary, and I'd take it back if I could do it again, but that still doesn't make up for what he did, still does, and how oblivious he seems to be to his own faults. Oh well... what can you do?
Staff days at work was probably the most borring thing I've done all year. For whatever reason, my employers find it necessary to keep us here for 8 hours a day, for three days straight, just so they can re-explain EVERYTHING that we were already told, then do it again, and then waste a bunch of time on stupid stuff that doesn't even benefit us as consultants. It's such an easy job, that I'd hate to just quit, but I often feel like they're treating us like a bunch of children. It's annoying. I know my position is secure, though, just because I'm now the OFFICIAL bi-weekly comic author for the whole department. It doesn't give me a whole lot of credit, but it's a start. I guess the one good thing about it all is this one girl, Maya, who works over in the LTC down the hall from where I work. She's pretty cool, and funny, and incredibly hot.
I'm not actually certain anyone even reads my posts anymore, which wouldn't surprise me. Maybe everyone else is just too lazy to reply? I know I am, lol.
