April has been an awful month for me, and I must tell you I can't wait for this next year to pass. Let's do a quick run-down of the not-so-good stuff in my life this month:
- Emory rejection letter, which I totally saw coming
- Georgia State rejection letter, which I had prepared myself for, but was still holding out hope
- Found out my sister is pregnant, which is not 100% a bad thing, but I would have preferred she finish college before that. (Also, thanks for telling us six months into your pregnancy, sis!)
- Applied for, and did not get, a job that most people at work thought I deserved. I was also given a quasi-BS excuse as to why I did not get said job.
- I have been given a bound-to-fail project at work - a project which I am somewhat ethically opposed to - and am expected to produce tangible results. (Did I mention it was bound to fail?)
So right now all I can do is plan for next year's attempt at law school. All of the above occurrences have motivated me to realize that I must do something different with my life and that "something different" is probably law school.
All of the negative stuff that's happened was getting in the way of my sleep, so I saw my energy healer, Shane, yesterday. Shane is good friends with Josh, which is how I met Shane. Shane is a truly gifted healer and helped me develop some exercises to help me internalize less of the above-mentioned crap that happens to me. It's also supposed to help me decrease the amount of energy I absorb from others. I still had problems sleeping last night, but it didn't seem to affect me as much today. I still woke up refreshed and ready to go, which is a marked improvement from the past week.
So I got up (after a bit of resting in bed while reading news) and showered. Now I'm eating a good breakfast (grapes, pineapple, toast, cheese, and OJ) and getting ready to take my Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan, which will - according to Josh - help my sleep patterns. (Side Note: I grabbed too many grapes from the fridge. I may have to put some back.)
