Quick recap
I only have 10 mins until my bus comes. I'm so tired I just want to call off work and sleep all day. It's rainy and cold and I just don't feel like going in ( Read more... ) -
You'll be my four leaf clover and we'll start over...
I woke up to a ghost this morning. A disturbing dream about an ex-boyfriend where he kept insisting that we love each other which is why we keep coming back. It was awful...and really poorly timed. I'm dating someone I really like and things are going supremely well. He's amazing and I think I forgot what it's like to fall for somebody....which ( Read more... ) -
Changes...Turn and Face the Strange
Amazing how much your life can change in just a couple of weeks. I'm dating someone I really like, I have the opportunity for an unpaid editorial internship in midtown Manhattan and I'm really happy with where things are going. I'm torn as to whether to take the internship or not because it's unpaid and I would be uprooting my entire life (friends ( Read more... ) -
Blondies
After gaining my freedom at 5pm yesterday, I left work and met my friend for a drink. We walked a few blocks down Market St to the Embarcadero because it was very sunny out and I have been wanting to just sit, drink and watch the Bay Bridge. We walked into the first bar we came to- Sinbad's which we soon realized was an old man's bar. I hadn't seen ( Read more... ) -

"Sick" Day
Decided to take the day off today. My friend is staying with me for a couple of days and my apartment is a huge mess, especially my room. So the plan for today is to clean the apartment top to bottom, do my laundry, find space for my air mattress, run some errands, call a lead about food writing, apply for jobs/internships, etc. I've been actively ( Read more... ) -
Living for the weekends
I've been in a bit of a rut lately so I've spared my blog some whining. I dislike my job. It's boring, monotonous and not challenging at all. I'm thankful to have a job and be able to pay my rent and go out pretty often, but I can't help feeling like there is something better out there for me. What's complicated this sort of stunt or standstill ( Read more... ) -
Dirty Laundry, Empty Cabinets
My goal for tonight was to get my laundry done and go grocery shopping. I have very little motivation to do either. The time change combined with some difficulty sleeping last night left me tired all day. I was hoping the nasty coffee in my office would wake me up- or some green tea, but nothing seemed to perk me up. I figure the laundry can wait ( Read more... ) -
Almost Friday
While I was on my lunch break today, I started looking at Craigslist and other sites for writing jobs. I know, probably not the best thing to do on my work computer. I didn't see any writing job posts that sounded good/applicable to my skills so I googled literary agents in San Francisco. I emailed two and didn't think anything much would come of ( Read more... ) -
Backup Plan
I'm thinking I should take Lee's advice about traveling or teaching English abroad. I found out Thursday that I didn't get into UT Austin, my number 1 choice school. I was pretty disappointed- Wisconsin and Syracuse weren't high on my list- but when I didn't get into austin, it somehow became real to me that I may not be going to grad school ( Read more... )
