it's been a while

I don't know who uses this anymore, and honestly, I don't care. I just need a place to vent now and I think it will make me feel better. I think that it is going to seem like nothing goes right for me, but that's only because I'll post what goes wrong so that I can get it off my mind.

If you want to know what's gone right, I'll start off with getting a new job. I work at a children's center, which I can't name for confidentiality purposes, that deals with intense children. They have been abused in some fashion in their lives and they do not know how to deal with normal conflicts that every day children can. They are extremely violent and they don't know that what they are doing is wrong. Even when it comes to sexual acts. They are only imitating what they've seen in their lives. It's hard, it's stressful, and it leaves you feeling drained and distraught at the end of a shift.

Secondly, I'm trying to get into grad school. My first step is taking the GRE which is the entrance exam into grad school. It is very similar to the TAKS test, dealing with standard knowledge that comes from elementary to high school information that by the time you graduated college, you don't remember. Therefore, it ends up being hard for a 24 year old, but probably easy for a 10th grader. I took my first practice test yesterday and I actually made above average scores, but they were definitely not good enough to get into grad school. The part hat I found strange was that I scored higher on the math than the verbal. I hate math and I'm terrible at it, which is probably a good thing that I scored higher on it.

I don't have any girlfriends really, I don't have anyone to talk to. Thus, this will become my place for venting. Unless you have something constructive to say, you're comments are not welcome.
