You stand in the line just to hit a new low

Phew. I've applied to 6 places and to 5 available jobs at the casino. I've looked into a whole bunch more but they require in-person app filling or need me to email my resume stuffs. I'll do in-person during the week when managers are more likely to be there. I could apply to the Pala casino but it's kind of a drive...

I'm looking into waitressing. Not that I really want to, but I need a job and I hear you can live off the tips. At least I can work evenings at most places and go to school during the day. Hopefully financial aid can fill in a little, as well. And maybe I can look into loans to help out if I need it. I'm still crossing my fingers for a swing shift at CVS. I heard a tip that they're needing a receptionist, so I'll give them a call tomorrow.

I'm seriously having pride issues though. I've never done anything but vet teching, so it's hard for me to go to something like waitressing. Not to put down anyone else, of course. It just feels like a step back for me. Which is silly in a way since my actual primary concern is school. I have to keep telling myself that. As long as I'm making progress, I can swallow my pride for the time being.

Other than online apps, I'm trying to take it easy today. My cough is a little worse, even though my head feels fine. This time last year I got bronchitis, so I'd rather not repeat that. (The doctor said "mild" bronchitis. Psh. I felt like I was dying!)

I found a good Avatar mood theme. I'm tempted.

I also found a great source of Avatar eps, so I'm catching up!

I think Mel is regretting introducing me to Avatar. I make bad jokes and annoy her. *big grin*

---------------------

Speaking of school, I have a paper I ought to write. No big deal. 2 page opinion for my psych class due on Thursday. Maybe I'll finish it today so I can have free time the rest of the week and not worry about it.

work, school
