We're hoping our work schedules don't crazy conflict this week like last week. I'm already considering skipping my bio class tomorrow night if that ends up being the only day I can see him lol. I'm bad. I'm also bad because once again, I didn't go to drawing today. I hate that class with a passion. I can't sit and draw a still life for 3 hours. I firstly hate drawing still lifes and secondly even when I'm drawing something I want to draw, I can NOT draw for 3 hours. Just isn't possible. But wildly off topic here, I just noticed the chocolate covered pretzels next to me and I'm quite close to eating them.
It's about ten degrees in my house right now. I have yet to figure out why it's so unbelievably cold but I think I'm gonna go dig my fuzzy robe out of my closet and sit here shivering til I go to work. Ugh, work. Til next time.
Yes, here I am again embarking on yet another short length of blogging time. Well, hopefully not short. I was writing over in my deadjournal for awhile but, the blandness of the layout sort of spurred me into coming back. With a fancy new autumn layout too. So, I suppose I'll give the usual update on what's been going on since the last post.
I actually quit that job. Amazing, I know. Years and years of busting my butt for those crazy Italians had me ready to snap in two so I left. Not that I don't love them all to death (well, most of them) but I had to draw a line. Right after that I went on vacation with Andy for a week to camp in North Carolina. We traveled to a few places within the state to go gem hunting, because for some reason we both enjoy things like that. Found a lot of great things: sapphire, garnet, emerald, ruby, amethyst, aventurine, smoky citrine (my favorite of my batch), smoky quartz (I always say it looks like a coca-cola ice cube lol), and lots of prism-like quartz crystals. Plus a ton of other things, but those are most noteworthy. We got muddy as hell every day, ran around in the creek digging under rocks for gems, and had such a blast I still to this day can't believe it was that fun. Of course the one drawback HAD to be the campground's showers...I was staring at 600 spiders everytime I showered...reminds me of home. Damn pervish spiders. That top one is where we lived for a week...lol. It was great because it poured every night but never during the day. Well almost every night. The middle picture is me and Andy with our surprise bucket that we were about to sluice, out of which came the two pendants that we had cut. And at the bottom is me...cuddling the hot dogs we bought. That's all we ate all week...hot dogs on the george forman grill with no buns. Talk about a low budget vacation. The last day we cracked and ate at Arby's tho, not to mention a fabulous pancake meal at IHOP during the drive down xD
Moving on, we came back and I started my new job at Target. I worked at 4 AM, and it sucked. I worked there for about a month before, just recently, I decided it wasn't for me. So I'm currently unemployed and semi-enjoying the free time. Besides the fact that I have classes now...the first day was on my 20th birthday. Go figure, since I had class all day, then a 5 hour biology lecture/lab at night. At least we got out of bio a little early and I got to eat some cake with Andy though, or it would've been extra crappy. Currently I'm going to be attempting to get a job at the airport. It's the kind of environment that I thrive on. Incase I never mentioned this, I'm obsessed with travel. Not like a normal person would be obsessed with travel, I really have a problem. I get urges, and...well nevermind that for now. If I got into my travel issues in this post you people would be here for years. So continuing, I'm attempting to go to the airport. Work around the people who get to do what I can only dream of doing. Hear about where they go and what they do. I'm excited, really. There's a job fair at the airmall Tuesday morning, I even get to miss my morning classes to go to it. Too bad I'm missing creative writing, the only class I never want to miss. I suppose that's about all that's been going on. I should be updating more frequently, at least I hope so. I'm busy, but I can always find time to sit on my butt in front of the computer and do nothing xD
Yes, I just so happen to be the laziest person alive. And I'm just generally not having a good time with myself, but I'll get to that later. I have a presentation due in 4 days that I only have 3 slides for, and two research papers due in two weeks. I haven't started either of those. I'm gonna do awful someday...I'll never succeed lol and the sad part is that I know that. I may as long as I can set my own deadlines or something. But I mean, the stuff I need to do gets done in time, but I procrastinate WAY too much, stress myself out like crazy along the way, and all of that's my fault. I could EASILY do things earlier, I just really don't want to. Somehow I'm happier putting it off and stressing myself out. Like, right now, I'm so stressed I can't even think. I backed into my garage door the other day because I have so much shit on my mind, and the darn people are coming at 8 AM to wake me up and replace it. Darn them.
I'm just getting sick of stuff. Sick of this place maybe. Sick of school, work, winter, cold, driving on route 60, almost everything lol. I just like the people, but even sometimes you need to get out of town and go somewhere where nobody knows you. Or maybe just one person knows you, or something like that. I just need to go somewhere. But I barely make enough money to do things I enjoy with it let alone pay bills. Seriously, screw bills. And I can't WAIT to get out of that damn restaurant and get a nice little office job where I get $9 per hour to sit there and use a computer. My god, that'll be just fabulous. I told you I was lazy. I already sit on my ass at the computer at any chance I get, why not at my job too? But I guess I'm off to bed so I can daydream about the traveling I wanna do til I fall asleep...
