resolutions, 2008
So far ive been having a grrrreat new years eve day. I went into the barnes and saw some friends. Made new years eve plans. Got to have lunch and catch up a bit with sabiha. yay! Had a very confusing meeting with david. Im honestly not sure how things ended and I am loathe to go back and ask what happened. sigh, but i will, cuz i have to. At one point, he asked me if i still worked there. I realize that I left, and that he is still slightly bitter about that fact by the pointed comments he makes about my 'career' at party america. But enough already. BN is a job, and i never made any pretense about the fact that it was a stop gap. A super long one, but still, only a stop. I give this as a reason every time i turn down a lead position. im flattered, but its not fair for him to get bitter because i dont want more responsibility there.
And i'm insanely glad I left. if i hadnt, i wouldve been stuck in the same rut. Leaving allowed me to figure out what I want and how to go after it. I'm super excited about the new year. An internship at a counseling center. School, to raise my gpa. Two jobs (okay, not so much excited about that. But i'm excited about paying my bills. My account is almost at 4 digits. I can pay everything. On time!! And i have a savings account!) And hopefully, sometime this year i'll get an acceptance into a grad program at a UK university.
The Resolutions: 1)the vegetarian thing. 2)And getting a life. I havent hammered out the details yet, but personally, im in a rut. No, its more like a vast underground cavern, where its all dark and echoey. And no cute boys ever wander. So my new years resolutions is to stop being so comfortable. To stop hiding behind jess and mario and the same familiar friends and go out and do new things and meet new people and be new things. Cuz i do want to meet "the one" but first, i want to meet a lot of someones. And just have fun in general. So i need to let go of what i think things should be and just go. Like, i got invited to a party next week. My first reaction: no way. i dont know anyone there, blah blah. But i think im just gonna go, and see what happens. And i'm embracing the online thing too. I used to be pretty strict about only talking to people i already know. But im branching out! talking to everyone and anyone. yay humanity!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope its good for all of you!
