Aww yisss
So, after doing some looking around, I'll probably have a job after Easter. Most excellent. It isn't in the bag yet - I still need to apply formally - but it's at a business owned by a friend of the family, so I'll be very surprised if I don't get it. Times like this, I'm quite glad for my father's connections. 8) I'll be making less money than I am now, but it's still very reasonable - and at normal working hours, too! I'll finally get to have a life again! :D
The end of the fest is coming up, and I'm super excited to read everyone's stuff. I'm already taking notes and planning out what to do differently for the next one. (Namely, longer writing period + shorter posting period. Just for one.) Still not sure when the next might be. Spanning July and August, maybe. I dunno', I'll have to think about it. Anyway, even though a lot of people still haven't put in their stuff yet, I'm pleased with it - considering it was all thrown together on such short notice, at least.
I signed up for the anonmeme's Battle Royale roleplay event, aw yiss. Can't wait for an opportunity to have Norway kicking ass and taking names (if I don't suddenly discover that real life is going to leave me with no time and so will end up having to kill him off early on... it's about 50/50 whether that'll happen, heh). Really wish I could find where on earth I put the novel version of Battle Royale, though. I bought it shortly before I moved from Saskatchewan and haven't seen it since. I'm sure it's packed away somewhere in the zillions of boxes I have in the basement, but where is it? I never even got to read the damn thing. :| Fffffffu.
Ugh, lately, I've been itching to go SOMEWHERE. It doesn't help that I keep hearing coworkers go "Oh yeah, I just booked a trip to Mexico on a whim, yay! :D". Yeah, it's nice that you can just pick up and go whenever the hell you want. ... What makes it worse is the reason that I can't go anywhere isn't that I don't have the cash. I do have the money. But my family is clingy as fuck, and there is no way that I'd be able to travel even in my own country on my own without them breathing down my neck about it - and never mind the idea of just picking up and going somewhere in Europe without a friend going along. No way.
I'm probably just frustrated and bored. I really need a day off, heh. Good thing I'll get one soon! Maybe I'll stop being batshit and stir-crazy after a couple of days to just unwind.
