It's funny how the previous journal entry is about my new job and how happy I was about it.

Man...that's so disappointing. D: But at least you don't feel bad about yourself. For that, I am grateful.

That's pretty damn cowardly to do that through a letter. I guess she didn't want to look at your face of disappointment (or anger) after she let you go.

She does not dare hold her head up with pride.

But like I told you on MSN...you did your best and that's what counts. Now let's see if that weekend temp position goes through.

Just keep on going it's all that you can do.
