Whee~!

1. Moving on is something I have a very hard time in doing. I tend to get hung up and overanalyze things far too often than I should.

2. All I want is to be free of the restrictions society tends to place upon us.

3. My best quality is...uhh...you expect me to know my best quality??

4. I tend to get way too caught up in the little details.

5. In nearly 10 years, I've become a completely different person. I have overcome obstacles, and I've discovered that, despite all my progress, I still have a long way to go.

6. A day at the spa is what I need right now!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to kicking back after work for a three day weekend, tomorrow my plans include absolutely nothing, and Sunday, I want to continue to RELAX

Friday's here- do you know what that means...?

FRIDAY FILL-INS!!!

1. If we had no winter the seasons would be all out of whack.

2. Life is a perpetual astonishment, and every day I seem to find out more about the true nature of what it all is-- and therefore, I learn more of nothing all the time.

3. If I had my life to live over, so far I'd take back some things, wouldn't let myself be influenced by some certain people, and I would definitely do my best to have better health.

4. There's so much that can happen inside of four and twenty hours. It's why no one can yet accurately predict the future.

5. If you've never been thrilled by the beauty of a six a.m. sunrise, you're missing out.

6. To be interested in the changing seasons is to find order in chaos, and chaos in order.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to heading up to Lexington after work and seeing Wes, tomorrow my plans include going to Wes's friend's lake house and hopefully going boating, and Sunday, I want to come back home, relax, and watch Star Trek!

First Week of Work and Other Bits of News

So...I got a job last week, and yesterday was my first day. I'm working at a daycare (incidentally, the one I went to as a child), 2-6 Monday through Friday. I love it because I don't have to work nights and weekends. :D I can't really say for sure what I think of my job yet, because I've only worked one day, but so far it's not too bad. I just like working with the infants better. The toddlers are tiresome, for lack of a better word. o_O Also, the babies are easy to deal with-- they aren't dirty, or such the like...>< Don't get me wrong, the toddlers weren't TOO bad, it's just they are, erm, hard to remember how to handle. In any case, we'll see how things go from here!

In other news: I've seen the new Star Trek three times already. My review of the movie is almost complete-- I should have it up on the blog soon. It's kinda long, kinda...iono. Spoiler-intensive. :P Not much else is going on since school is over (Note: I got 2 As, 3 Bs, and am keeping my hold on a 3.5 GPA. I am determined to get all As from here on out), and I'm back in a Star Trek mode, therefore I'm back to writing sci-fi. ^_^ Eh heh...

This is going to be an interesting round of...

Friday Fill-ins. :P Also, sometime this weekend I'll be posting a rather spoiler-intensive review of the new Star Trek movie, so stay tuned.

And...here we go!

1. Apples are to oranges as Star Trek is to Star Wars.

2. The new Star Trek movie was great, and makes me want to watch Trek again, but leaves me confused and unsure as to what Trek I actually want to watch, and that's all I have to say about that. Until I write my review tomorrow or such.

3. I think I hear the sound of a great sigh of relief on the horizon.

4. Capture the flag.

5. Do what you want to do, but only insofar as it doesn't harm others or infringe on their rights-- that's my personal philosophy.

6. See, there, officer, there's the culprit right thayre, and behind him was a Radio Flyer wagon; in the wagon was a bucket filled with cream cheese! (yeah, this is a little weird. o.O)

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to relaxing with my Star Trek tapes, tomorrow my plans include having the grandparents here, I assume, as well as finding out my final semester grades, and Sunday, I want to sit back and do nothing while waiting for my first day of work!

Screaming is a therapy

Or ranting, at least. I am so close to the end, and I need OUT. I am so close to the end, and yet it is just dragging out so much that I want to go home now, screw everything else, and just curl up in bed and wait for it to blow over.
But then, I have two damn days left, and surprisingly still have work left to do T_T I really, really hope next semester isn't like this. I don't remember my finals week being this bad in fall semester, but then again, finals weren't separated by a freakin' weekend. If I'd had finals on Monday last week, I'd be DONE with school already. Mostly. Sorta. More or less. Guh.
Next week I'm gonna have to also go check on the job I'm hoping to get at my former daycare. I applied during spring break, but I haven't heard back from the owner yet, and I told her I could start on May 11th. *sigh* Maybe I'll hear something early next week, and I won't have to go through the trouble or actually going over there and asking her if she's going to need me this summer. Also, I don't want to have to go out and find another job. -.-
Oh, and another thing: I am kinda pissed about my stupid writing class. I love it so much, but still-- I thought I was done worrying! I am seriously afraid of getting a bad grade in that class! I think I'm pretty safe in Math, Honors, and Psychology, but Astronomy I'm not too sure, and ironically enough it's Writing that is my other main concern. T_T If only my semester hadn't been so screwed up because of my own stupid issues, maybe this wouldn't be so much the case. Ugh. Oh, well, I'm hopeful that, if my revised drafts are good enough, I might be able to pull out a decent grade (aka an A or B), and not fail (aka C or lower). *sigh* I really want to know my grades, and yet I kinda don't. We'll find out in a week from tomorrow, I guess...

I Didn't Forget This Week! ..

Here's this week's Friday Fill-in fun! Sorry I forgot about 'em last week... ><

1. The first rule of working in an office and getting along is most likely be friendly and don't be an ass about things, especially to your boss. I've never worked in an office before, so I'm probably not the best one to ask.

2. What do clams have to do with anything?

3. When I think of carnivals I think of that weird Barbie detective game I used to be OBSESSED with as a kid.

4. Hybiscus would have to be my favorite spring flower.

5. Things on my desk include a computer, pencils, papers, CDs, sometimes pretzel bags, pictures, a dictionary, a vase of (fake) flowers...that was me combining my school desk and my home desk.

6. My Astronomy tests, stupid people, and idiotic internet make me wanna scream.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to watching the Oaks, maaaaaaaybe hanging out with a friend of mine as poooooooooooossibly celebrating Beltane, and I can't tell you how much I'm NOT looking forward to studying today, tomorrow my plans include seeing WES and going to his friend's Derby party and Sunday, I want to RELAX and PACK but the former won't happen because I have to study for my finals on Monday! But Mum and Dad are coming that night to take me out to dinner ^^


***Rants will be forthcoming after finals are over. Stay tuned. : )
