Day 21

You know, I'm going to be completely honest...I am really curious as to who is reading this.  Because on almost every post, I have two views...Who are these two people?!?  I really wish to personally thank you for taking the time to read my viral diary (because, let's be honest, that's what a blog is right?).  Anyway - this is my personal thank you to you, reader.  Spread the word around!  My viral diary is pretty interesting, if I do say so myself...
Right now I am currently printing an English essay that I slightly procrastinated on (it's due in an hour) but I feel like it actually turned out alright! I was expecting a much worse outcome.
I had a great day yesterday with the engineering boys.  I always feel like Penny from the Big Bang Theory when I'm with them...though not really lol.  Never mind - it's just usually me, as the only girl, and a bunch of nerdyish guys, so I suppose it is slightly like the Big Bang Theory.  Speaking of which, I think there is a new episode of that on tonight...
I am still loving my job, though I made a slight error today.  Hopefully the Gas boss won't be tooo mad about that...
I also might be back on the boat for Grad School!  Idk though...I'm still unsure.  It really just depends on how I do on my GRE, which I'm worried will destroy me, but I think I've nearly decided on the schools.  New York University is still in the running, but now I'm adding University of Iowa, UC Irvine (which I've heard has a great writing program), maybe a school in Georgia, Emory, that apparently has a great program, and then probably a school in Washington State.  That's probably it.  I shouldn't apply to more than 6 anyway.  Maybe I'll take out the one in Georgia lol xp

~Cheers!

Still Day 20

Hey!  Forgot to mention: I GOT INTO THE CSU SUMMER ARTS WORKSHOP!  Yeee----aauuhh!
So - now, like I said before, all I've got to do is tell said person my feelings...lol that sounds lame.
And then my life will be completely complete! :D I can't wait for summer...

~Cheers!

Day 20

Hey y'all!  So I got to go home this weekend!  Isn't that crazy??? I never go home on the weekends - it's just too far.
My dad is doing so much better, though still weak and tired and barely starting his recuperation, but it was wonderful being able to see him.  And I hope that his recuperation will quicken now that he was able to see me. His work his amazing - they made him a "Get well shirt!" that they all signed and wrote silly messages on, and on of his coworkers was the one that picked me up and dropped me back at school!  Great, isn't it?  I want to find a workplace like that one day...
Speaking of which, I have decided (sort of) where I would like to end up eventually: New York City, Los Angeles, or Seattle.  I'm leaning more towards Seattle.  New York would be a great place to pursue my writing/publishing career, as would Seattle, I think.  I need to do more research.  New York isn't entirely the most expensive place, according to the one site I looked at, which was surprising.  Seattle was actually pretty expensive for certain things, but as it turns out, for renting an apartment in heart of the city, which is what I'd want to do I'm sure, NYC is by far the most expensive, LA is in the middle, and Seattle is the least expensive.  A one bedroom apartment in the city is only $1,400 a month apparently!  I could so do that...maybe LOL Anyway, that's so far ahead into the future...
I've also decided, most likely decided, that I don't want to go to Grad School anymore.  It would be totally worthless for me.  I have a job now, so my confidence in getting a writing job has heightened.  Besides, for writers, your GPA doesn't matter - it's all about your portfolio.  Your works of written art.  Don't tell my parents - they don't know I'm thinking of just sticking with my Bachelor's Degree, hitching up my bags, and moving to a big city.  YOLO....not really.  I hope I have the courage to accomplish it all.

~Cheers!

Day 19

So my dad is in the hospital.  It came out of nowhere.  He is currently suffering from an appendicitis infection, but he should be fine.  It will just take a few weeks, at least, for him to recover.  These past few days have just been hard on me, knowing that he is helpless in the hospital, while I am four hours South, having to act normal and pretend like this tragic event isn't happening.  Again, he will be fine - it's just that my family has never really gone through something like this before.  I mean, my mom used to get sick a lot, but not really like this.  Anyway, so that's what has been on the back, and a lot of the times at the front, of my mind this weekend.  He is gradually getting better - pray for him everyone and God will grant him a quicker recovery. <3
I haven't heard anything from the CSU summer arts workshop yet, and my eye is starting to twitch.  But I am managing the uncertainty alright - I just have no patience!  I have a few weeks left for them to decide whether to reject or accept me, so hopefully I'll find out soon.
My job is going really well!  I love the office, I fit right in.  They are my people - awkward, Harry Potter fanatics, hilarious, and just overall awesome - and passionate.  They are all passionate with what they do.  It's a greatly encouraging environment, if I do say so myself.  The only negative to it is that I don't get to spend any time with my friends around lunchtime - which really isn't a big deal at all haha.  I just never get to go to lunch with them!  They always forget me when they go, which is fine - I am in a different dorm, so it's hard to remember to contact me if I'm not around, ya know?
It's cloudy today, which I love.  I woke up pretty tired (for good reason, I had like six hours of sleep >.<), and now feel like I can take on the world.  It's something this kind of weather does to me - which is why I'm going to end up moving to northwestern Europe or like Washington State or something.  Clouds and rain give me strength for whatever reason.
Right now I really should be reading for my world literature class - I have about 70 pages to read by tomorrow morning.  Bleh - I guess I should go work on that.

~Cheers~
