I gotta work more on college applications so I can transfer next fall. I've finished most of the "easy" stuff (i.e. the things I already have the answer for somewhere in my brain-- not necessarily that easy but comparatively so.) Now I have to begin working on my essays, and for at least one school, figure out who could write me a letter of recommendation. This sucks, but I can't wait til I graduate from community college and move on.

I'm just finishing up this midterm and more than halfway done with it. It's just answer questions.
 
Going to go to a convention this weekend, which means I'm going to be absent from the site for a couple of days.
 
I scheduled my second exam attempt for next Saturday and I'm gonna be busting my balls over the next 7 days to do better so I pass. I was so close last time so there's not too much for me to do, just reading some chapters in more depth. I don't know if I'll be on here as much for the time being.
 
Getting a paper I've been working on for a while ready to submit for publication. Here goes nothing.
 
I wish I could find a better library to work for but my title is in a department where not very many openings pop up. Monday I had what I thought was a private email blabbed all over admin and I had to have a one on one meeting with the director and the guy I had a complaint about. And the email where I complained about how he treated me was read out aloud to him at that meeting.
 
I think DST fucked me up (and maaaybe recovering from Halloween) because I hit snooze once and ended up sleeping for an extra hour and a half.

I'm also uncharacteristically excited for whatever-passes-for-winter in the Bay Area mostly because I took out my fall candles and burned B&BW's Marshmallow Fireside last night and swapped out my handsoap for the sweet cinnamon pumpkin one. I have a load of coupons so I'll be hitting up B&BW after work today, especially now that all the Christmas scents are out. :heart-full:
 
I worked an 8 Saturday during the day, then volunteered to come in at 3am and work a 12. On 4 hours of sleep. That OT, though.
 
I have a swollen foot and couldn't work yesterday and today, which were the two days I was supposed to be working today. No money for me this week.

The good news is I have a job interview tomorrow for a job that pays more and is closer to home, and I know someone who already works there.
 
I'm trying to get back on track and right now, doing some stupid project shit before the deadline today. Those two midterms last week also took up a lot my time, but I did really well on at least one of them.
 
Today was the first time I've been eligible to vote in a mayoral election, and I did so, even though people seem to be predicting that the incumbent will win, unfortunately. At least I'll have the excuse that I actually got off my ass and voted for someone I think would have helped San Francisco.

(It also took almost no time at all.)
 
Yesterday we snatched up a turtle from our pond. He had just been sitting in the same spot for two days. We originally though the was ded but he slowly opened his little tiny turt eyes.
So we brought the little fella up to the house to die in peace. Fire ants around here are awful and the last thing we wanted to happen was this poor dying critter being eaten alive during his last moments.
He passed during the night. RIP Turt. He was a good turt.

Things are looking a little better. I'm going to finish out this semester, pack up my stuff, go home, and be an adult for a while. School isn't for me and I want to clear my head of stuff, plus I miss my friends and family and it'll be great to be back with them.

Also, I got something that might happen in a couple weeks, and if it does then I'll be unbelievably fucking happy. There's a really slight chance it won't, but fuck that, this glass is 3/4ths full and I refuse to see it any other way.

Glad to hear things are looking up! :D
 
I recently got back onto Celexa. I've been feeling mostly better my anxiety has been crazy. I had a minor panic attack at work today. I'm also worried that I'm gonna fail all my classes because I didn't pay much attention to them in the last couple of weeks that I've been depressed. I've been trying to make it up though. I hope it's not too late.

I did this at work seconds after making a joke about safety with knives. Irony is a harsh mistress. It looks small but it's deep and it nicked a fairly major vein because the sheer amount of blood that I sprayed all over the office was spectacular. I am, however, no snowflake so I got my friend to bind it up tight and we continued working.
 
Thanksgiving break can't come any sooner and the end of the semester too which I didn't think would fly by this fast. I just know that I'll have much more time to do what I need to do. Again, I'm really close to getting what I need to move forward and to actually have a shot at getting my foot in the door, but it will require some more time on my part to work on my weaknesses in a thorough way. I have been having mixed feelings lately about how this process has gone for me but all I know is that I need to focus and keep grinding.
