what would you do? .. get up on my feet and stop making tired excuses
if asked during an interview what your worst work-related quality is, should one be honest and reply "i make myself - literally - sick as i procrastinate almost every task i've ever been assigned"??
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
i just realized that i've been negligent. reading chris' blog, it dawned on me that we haven't spoken in probably almost a month. that saddens me! he's not the only one that i've been neglecting lately. i've been so utterly consumed with my own life that i can't look around and see those people who were, at some point, really important to me. and for that, i'm truly sorry, kids. if you even remotely think that this may apply to you, it probably does. one day, i will not suck at this friendship thing.... tomorrow's lunch will un-suck a friendship with holly bean... for a little bit, anyway. oh, but there are so many more that i need to un-suck.... and now i need to quit procrastinating this project...
i'm here for the party
ahh, the bachelorette party. crazy night.a few things that stand out:-note to everyone -- edible undies aren't very tasty.-i fell asleep at the comedy club...not because the comics were bad-Kait yelling on the dance floor "I am NOT a swinger!"-Gary, the DJ, rocked the house-most common question of the night was "where are you guys from?"... like we actually looked like cowgirls. (well, everyone did except for me...)-Kait trying to make friends with the un-amusable cabbie-late night fashion show-Kait waking snuggled up to THOSE undies
you can get the money, you can get the power, keep your eyes on the final hour
last night was one of those nights that i love my job for. good people in, everything running smoothly, stories from "back when", random outbursts (of joy) to hear that "duckie" (i call him "chicken little") got the boot from American Idol on wednesday, mixing 'fabulous drinks' and just FUN. with nights like last night, its hard to believe that i was about to walk out on them 2 weeks ago.i have only one class this semester and am involved in little to nothing else. i have to work 4 nights a week(end)... do random cleaning and housework during the day. yet...i can't seem to get anything done with schoolwork. sleeping and watching TV have taken over my life. i think i need to start a work-out routine and start getting as busy as i used to be. i probably have needed some time off to just relax and take it easy. but its starting to get rediculous. need motivation!!
i wanna dance with somebody
i'm bored with my life. job searching is going....well, decently. i have a job offer, if i want it, but i don't know if i want to be one of THOSE people. however, temporarily, it just may not be the worse thing in the world and i could make a pretty penny doing it.....i'm very excited for this up coming weekend. i will see kaitlin for the first time since..... august? was hoping to see a holly bean, but that's not looking like it'll be the case. kinda sad to think that the last time i saw her in july could possibly be the last time i will ever see her. i guess that's life, though. some people come and go in your life, each with some purpose or impact and then, its up to you both to decide whether or not your lives will cross paths again. no matter what, there will be three cowgirls (and the rest of the bachlorette party) in town on saturday. i'm hoping for some bar top dancing a la coyote ugly. but randomness is almost a sure thing. kait's last weekend of being technically single is sure to be in style.the one thing i love and hate most about life is that people grow. there are so many people that i've lost contact with simply because we've become different people. the fond memories are endless with some people. i have one childhood friend that i still keep in pseudo-contact with. however, i sometimes wonder if we didn't have mutual cousins, if we'd stay in contact. almost every group of friends that i've had has lost contact with each other. and i'm worried that because it's natural to grow, that all my peeps from my college years will simply be memories like they are from gradeschool through highschool. only time can tell, its one of those things that i'll always wonder and fear. here i go thinking about stuff too much. i sometimes wonder if life would be less complicated if you would think less.... or would it be complicated in different ways?hmmm...
o-o-o-o sweet thing, o-you know you're my everything
hours until i leave town for a mini-vaca. only laundry and a quick house cleaning stands between me and a pint. like any stereotypical american, i will be a geek wearing green tomorrow as i enjoy a few dark, dark irish beverages.a very happy holiday weekend to all! be safe, have fun, enjoy the green (c:
we like to party, we like, we like to party
happy spring break to me! thought it didn't start until thursday, but apparently i'm a knob and didn't read the syllabus correctly as thursday is a "team work day".... whatever that means :)becks and i will be heading down to the milwaukee area for st. paddy's day. what more appropriate place to celebrate the day of green than a pub called the House of Guinness? i'm very excited to leave medford 1-without a family member and 2-without ending up at school. amid the haze of green and guiness, some shopping will be in order as interviews start next week and i have nothing to look professional in.to all you Blugolds (can someone inform me what the hell a blugold is, by the way?), happy spring break to you!
I'll never be a snowflake and waltz to earth so gently
sometimes dreams are somewhat reality. last night, i was being covered by locust... i woke up to the windows being beaten by sleet. today seemed as though the heavens opened up and someone took the biggest shovel possible in efforts to rid every cloud of its little 6 sided wonders. school was called off early, which is a rarity in medford. there is snow everywhere... just as we were getting our hopes up that because of the 45 degree weather, spring had begun. they've always said, "if you don't like the weather in the midwest, wait a minute."its time for a nap on this gloomy, gloomy day.
you give me butterflies, inside
the job hunt starts again. taking a bit more of a proactive angle this time around. then again, i have a bit more time to do that, too, this time around. no one does phone interviews... wtf? mumken a trip for interviews sometime within the next few months. that being said, if anyone knows of any marketing positions that need a may graduate... i'm proactively taking leads (or hand-outs, or ....whatever i can get).(c:
so you sailed away, into a grey sky morning
question: how the hell do they all afford it? my brain just can't wrap around it. like most other @ers, i LOVE to travel, but after 3 years of small (in comparison to most's) travels inside the US, i am flat broke ... (talking: good thing my parents are letting me live with them 'cuz i couldn't afford rent/utilities if my life depended on it, paycheck to paycheck, it hurts to put gas in the car, maxed out credit-cards kind of broke)... i would love to jet-set, tour the world, heck.. take a weekend trip to somewhere other than medford. how?
they got 3 in the front and 4 in the back of a civic
there's no way to be completely honest with these people. if i am, the whole situation could quite possibly shatter and i'm not at all prepared for that. but i need to do it soon or my sanity will be lost.
would you know my name, if i saw you in heaven?
Netto started this, and i'm intrigued... http://kevan.org/johari?name=ConnieMiafill in what you think :)
