Back Home Again
I started work again on Wednesday. Which is fine. Really boring. Good times at Spencer Park don't start until June. Yesterday, we watched Star Wars...then took a little jaunt down to Baldwina dn Brown road to go to the Marine Division of the Oakland County Sherriff, then sat around and talked to Bob (my boss) for awhile. Good times. I did move cement parking bumpers with the guys yesterday, so i did do some work. Even IF it only took us 30 minutes. We swept too...and weeded a little until Bob made us go into the office to play euchre. How I love Spencer park...
there is a real jerk working there, his last day is tomorrow (sat) so i am glad he is leaving. He brought three little bottles of vodka to work on monday the guys said and wanted to drink. moron. He's older, 23, and seems to just be a suck up...gah. stupid boys.
It was fun yesterday and today. The other girls haven't come back to work yet so it was me and the guys. It is HILARIOUS to listen to guys talking. yes indeed. They crack me up.
i should mention that Danny and me are on the Light side of the Force. We get light sabers... we rock. Even is Danny wants a light blue one. :) Everyone else is on the Dark Side...goodness. I love work.
Anyway, nothing else exciting is going on. I'm just glad i got to start work early and am making money, even if I did come home today after only working 2 1/2 hours...I had a migraine. poo on that.
My sister is making her confirmation tomorrow, so family party at the goedtels! woohoo! I'm her sponser...good times, good times.
I feel like crap and my BF is in florida. jerk. At least he'll come back and be all tan while my shoulders are peeling from the sunburn i got on monday. he owes me for leaving. And for going to Bolivia in July. grrr.
Speaking of trips. the big bro is in Europe...haven't heard from him in a couple days. I hope the French people don't hate him...lol. (he was in Paris last time he called). it cracks me up that he spent $25 for Subway. ridiculous.
anyway, off to bed I go...i feel like poop. Keep in touch people, leave comments (i like comments. they make me smile)

Productivity
Yesterday, i spent a great deal of time dealing with the virus my screen name sent out to everyone. It was frustrating, ecsepcially because i needed to work on my portfolio...but i got rid of it after 3 1/2 hours and it was all good.
Yeah, I definately stayed up till past 415 (which was when i crawled into bed) working on my portfolio, which was awesome. I think my professor really like the theme, and the stuff I pulled out of my butt during my presentation today. Major points there!
Whats left?
- IAH 211C paper
- HST 334 essay exam (ick)
- ENG 310B quotations exam (ick again)
- ISS 320 Exam (EASY!)
- Short one page paper for HST
And its.....very early on tuesday morning. gah. So...being the smart girl I am, i outlined my paper already, the long one. But I am not at all worried about that class. I have a 4.0...HA!
I'm a little worried about the ENG exam. quotations? ridiculous...i can't handle quotations! At least HST is studyable (is that a word? well...now it is) and ISS is easy. And the paper for HST is easy too (what i learned...blah blah blah kinda stuff).
At least ALL my stuff is packed up. I worked for almost FOUR hours tonight packing up my stuff. My mom is coming up tomorrow morning with Dave to take it all home... *sigh* I did take a break for the last ten minutes of Bachelor, and all of the Inferno...how i <3>
But tomorrow night? No TV for me, its going home... *SIGH* what do i do without TV? no idea.
perhaps I'll study...thats a novel idea. :)
I feel as if this is another distraction...but...you know...I really don't feel like writing that paper. I might pop in some pointless entertainment...like...hmm...what am i in the mood for?
Maybe Chocolat.....haven't watched it in awhile....or...hmmm. XXX? hahahaha. no.
Wow, this is the most pointless entry of my life. And I have abused the "..."s a little too much! TOO BAD! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!
gah. time for a movie...and some dishes that need to be washed.
yuck. dishes.

Alone
I do better on my own, away from the crowd, the drama.
I am in an odd mood. I don't know why. perhaps it stems from my overall emotions the last couple weeks. Seeing the school year come to an end, watching my roommate moving out yesterday, and knowing that i somehow seem to be apart from it all.
It's just a weird feeling...that I simply don't belong here anymore. I don't feel as if i "fit."
This might only be because i am listening to the kind of music that merits this kind of thinking. Or that my brain is fried from homework and studying and the portfolio that is due Monday at 10.
Or it could be the short phone conversation i had with an old friend on thursday night that made me think about where i was headed.
or perhaps its because my subconcious has been trying to tell me to take some time apart from everyone. And I finally did today. I shelled myself up in my room. Yeah, i studied, i talked to matt. But it was nice, to be apart from the world for a little while, and forget all those distractions.
And now, I simply feel hollow. And I don't know how to fill that void.
Only 5 days until i leave.
thank goodness.
