Week In A Nutshell
So this was my first week at work. My boss is trying to figure out a way he can get upper management to hire me for the amount I wish to be paid. He said next week he wants me to time how long each individual task takes me to complete. So I'm noticing a trend that when I first arrive somewhere I'm well accepted. That's good. Full time work and full time school...very tiring; I'm managing though. It would be easier if I didn't have to stand all day and was at a computer like my last job. But a job is a job at this point and as long as I've got an income I'm not complaining.
Wednesday was Abnormal Psych and Word Specialist. Finally got my midterm back from psych and got 101%. Even with being hailed as a computer genius in my word class I think I'm doing best in my psych class. I mean, I guess it comes as no surprise to any of us. I've only been interested in psychology since as far back as I can remember. Sometimes I wonder whether or not to pursue an MD/PhD in psychology. I know I can do it...it's just a question of whether or not I want to do it. The stories my professor tells us. I don't know how objective I could remain, or how much self restraint I could exercise with a child abuser/molester. I'd want to beat the ever loving crap out of them. Maintaining professionalism would go out the window because it's kids. And I know I could specialize in something far from kids. But the chances that one case at one point in my life including a kid. It only takes one time to ruin everything. Plus I do love computers. And have a natural ability there. We'll see.
Thursday was English. Blah that class is a bore. But I like the professor. He's very chill. Had to rush my rough draft an hour before class LOL. Still he only gives credit for doing it. Doesn't actually read it. So I went into the library to quickly bullshit it. No sooner did I sit down than the only cute girl in my English class decides she's going to sit next to me and talk. Which is fine, but she kept reaching out to touch my arm during our chat. SO I took it as a sign to flirt with her just to see if I've still got it. Before any of you comment and say when did I ever have it, it was before any of you knew me. Most of the people who could vouch for me, I no longer speak to save one. So I'm flirting with her and she see's one of my newer doodles and starts fawning over it and asks me whatever happened to the first one she saw me do. I told her I still had it and asked her if she'd like to have it. She smiled a big smile and asked if I was serious. So I gave it to her. She asked if I'd make her another one. I said it was really time consuming. She said she'd give me a dollar. I said how about a date. She blushed and grinned; said she'll have to see the drawing first. So if I want a date with this girl all I have to do is complete the doodle I'm working on currently. Although at the same time, I'm not sure I want to go on a date with her. Yes she's very cute but she's only 18 (19 on April 23). She's also into astrology. Which I mean isn't a deal breaker but it's a little off putting. So we'll see, but it was comforting to know that I could get a date with her if I wanted to. I've come to learn that winning over a girl isn't that hard as long as I'm at the right place. Picking up chicks at a bar...HA Not likely. Picking up girls in the library...WIN. I mean obviously I've known this for quite some time, I've just never put it into action.
Relationships. I don't know what to do there. On one hand I acknowledge that it is nice to have a companion to experience things with and share a closeness that you cannot have with anyone else. But on the other hand I just don't see me being very good at it and thus...why bother? I mean it use to be where I just wanted someone to dote upon and nurture and love; looking back I believe smother is read somewhere in between the lines. But now, I'm not saying I'm completely selfish/self-centered but I like my time. I like being able to do whatever I want whenever I want. All the time in my day is my time. I do what I want with it and spend it with whomever I want. My life is already consumed by school. Now I've added work. I still want to hang out with my guy friends. But they all have girlfriends or are in the market for one. Should I be moving into that phase as well?
Listen to me, LOL. I hardly ever question the way I think; why I should start now is utter nonsense.
So here we are at Friday. I didn't have enough gas to make it to Math. So I just came home from work. Originally I thought I was getting paid today because I work for a temp agency and I know temps get paid on a weekly basis. However, I was sadly mistaken. Yes temps get paid on a weekly basis but they also have to work a week in hand which I have only just completed. So I'll get my first check next week and then every week there after. FUN!
Tomorrow I'm going down to the apartment. Daniel said that I got a response from the unemployment office. I know it's the outcome of my hearing. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the best, but I'm not holding my breath. Spring break this upcoming week. So I'll catch up on some math and do my extra credit for psych. Alright well that's all for now. END.
