So I thought by now things would be slowing up at the seasonal job, and it has, sort of. In the last two weeks, I worked everyday for Sundays and last Tuesday. Think I got overtime the first week in December, but last week I was 3 1/2 hours under. Though I’m on the schedule everyday this week, I don’t expect to work all of them, but we’ll see. I’ve ( Read more... )

Not a lot to talk about this week, unless I monologue again about how I’m a complete failure. I had two interviews a couple weeks ago.  Didn’t get the one that would be a full time job, still waiting to hear back on the Part time one. The interview for that one went well, I think. But I’m not sure I’ll get it. And even if I do, I’ll have to get ( Read more... )

So the next legs of my journey would take me to Fargo. Ryan (aka Rihan) is my friend/ middle-aughts traveling & concert-going companion who is finishing up school there, so I figure now would be the best time to pay him a visit. I always wished some of my friends would have visited me when I was in Graduate school, so that explains my motivation. ( Read more... )

Surprisingly, it's actually been a while since I've wrote an entry here. As I mentioned many weeks ago, I wrote the log of my trip while I was actually in Hawaii, and I only did some editing before posting them. So what have I been up to lately? The short answer is not much. The long answer is I feel into a despair cycle. I got angst-y about the ( Read more... )

So in a couple days, I'll be leaving for Hawaii. It'll be the longest trip I'll go on in years. So of course, the next entry will be all about that, but not this one. I'm only mentioning this up top because I'm thinking of making day to day entries, but only if anyone is interested in that. So if you're reading this before Sunday, the 24th and you' ( Read more... )

    Not a lot has been going on with me recently. I've been applying for every job I feel confident in, and I haven't let the rejection letters get me down yet. It seems easier now; I'm not getting so hung up on applying for places. I feel pretty confident in my cover letter writing ability, but now I think I need to work on my interviewing ability ( Read more... )

Well, here we are again. Haven't been on any big trips, and nothing is coming up until December, when I make my triumphant but brief return to Wisconsin.  So, since coming back from the trip, not a lot has been going on with me.  Well, I've been to a bunch of movies: Looper, The Perks of being a Wallflower, Argo, and Wreck-it Ralph.  Probably go ( Read more... )

This is it! The Zelda concert is literally tomorrow, so here's part two of my Legend of Zelda retrospective ( Read more... )

Like I said last time, this entry is about the video game series, the Legend of Zelda.  In two weeks time, I'll be traveling to the city of Austin to go to a Zelda concert there (amongst other things).  Since that weekend  would normally be a weekend where I make an entry, I'm instead going to break this entry into two parts.  I'll post the second ( Read more... )

One third of the year down, two more thirds to go!  I'm not satisfied with my current situation.   Did I make the right decision in moving down here? That will only be answered once I complete this job, but that's how life goes.  I have decided my next move in my goal will begin after my June trip.  It is at that point where I'll begin to look for ( Read more... )
