working, working, working ahh life, almost over with school, just the take home final and then semi blissful summer. I say semi because I have begun the fun process of thesis research and I am running my butt off to get yet another job. yes, yes, I know but if I didn't work I wouldn't have money and if I didn't have money I couldn't live. I have that sort of working class bug that screams WORK DAMN YOU! YOU'RE YOUNG, STRONG HEALTHY! WORK AND SAVE AND YOU WILL BE REDEEMED FROM POVERTY! or something like that... thus, why I end up working anywhere from 2 to 12 jobs a year, all with different titles, responsibilities, and payment plans, if any. it's insane but I am building towards something, ford knows what at this point, but it will be cool when I get there. speaking of which, school is burning me out and seeing lots of people graduate makes me bummed. I have no idea what to do with my life after this and I keep getting in arguments with other people about it. I kind of want to be an organizer, a teacher, go to grad school -which I won't do if I feel too burned out but will have to apply either way-, or just plain knuckle down and become a fry chef. too many choices. college was my easy out the last time but this time there are no easy outs. I am really considering Teach for America right now because they will pay off my loans and make me debt free if I want to go back for more school after a year or two, and I will probably be assigned somewhere that spk can find work. don't worry I am not planning around him, just conscious of the balance between love and life. anyway, it has been a good day. discovered that spk gave me tummy flu yesterday when I almost crapped in my thong in my skirt on the street yesterday. so glad I made it home, otherwise I would have been mortified, and very little does that to me anymore, public shitting though certainly hits a nerve. other than that, decided to take the day off, see avery again, hopefully spk will get here on time, well sometime...timing has never been his forte =) |
