Storm Tossed

[ceitfianna]

Walking to and from class today was exciting as apparently there are massive thunderstorms in the area and I didn't realize it until I was too far out my door. So I was rained on both ways and I'm still wet, but it was a good excuse to do my laundry and I have tea and soon will have toast. Oddly I'm feeling shaky and I think I know why so this is

Good to meet you. We seem to share spooky_lemur as a friend.

I agree just without the accent.

I picked up a slight Kiwi one while I lived there but sadly have lost it and I'm back to my regular one.

It wasn't easy but I made it work. My New Zealand tag holds a lot of the story and I plan to go back someday.

For now I'm just working on my masters in library science and trying to find a job.

Its a good degree, my two years have been hard but really worthwhile.

I know this feeling - and the longer the list of goals and such gets, the more stressful it becomes. My best friend is going through this exact thing...graduation, job hunting, etc. Her thought is to set aside a certain amount of time each day to work on the things she needs, like applying and such, and then when the time is up, to step away (and go play some Sims) until the next day - so as not to overwhelm herself.

At any rate, I hope it all works out for you and isn't so overly stressful that you don't enjoy your summer.

Also, could we get a little sunshine, right?

[ceitfianna]

Yes, that's why I'm trying to keep the goals manageable and not overwhelming. Having them be weekly helps a lot for that, but the job stuff is hard.

No matter where or when getting ready to apply for jobs is scary. I've been doing lots of small things so far, finding connections, reworking my resume and that makes me feel like I'm going in the right direction. Next month, I'll tackle actually applying. The way I work best anyway is a bit of this and a bit of that, when I'm only doing one thing, I freak out more.

Yes, I miss the sun so much. I changed out my clothing partly and then the weather went weird.

[dodger_sister]

Yeah, I had my summer shirts out and was going through my short collection and now I am back in a sweatshirt. So not cool, Weather, so not cool.

[ceitfianna]

Yes, and I kept getting rained on. Monday tricked me so I wasn't prepared and was soaked to and from class.

Wednesday I was set with hat and jacket and still ended up really wet.

It was nice today to only go out driving instead of braving the wet. I hope it tapers off.
