So it's been a bit of a weird couple of days.
GOOD:
I got a surprise package! My mom sent me the new BBC version of "Emma"! Being the Jane Austen geek I am, I am absolutely in love with this and very happy.
I finally caved in and bought a new "professional-looking" purse. I feel like a grown-up already with my fake red crocodile bag.
BAD:
I gave blood today and got sick and passed out - this was not fun at all. Plus it's really embarrassing when people have to take care of you.
I haven't heard back positively from jobs or grad schools. This makes me very nervous and down - I don't think I have a very good chance. I also checked back at the professor's lab page I want to work in and there is now a big, bold message at the bottom: "This lab is full and is not accepting any more members." *sigh* This does not bode very well for me, I think. I had thought things were positive, but it seems that maybe I got my hopes up a little too soon for this one.
I'm just so frustrated - I know I'm in the same boat as everyone else looking for a way to survive and make some sort of living, but even when I apply for jobs I think I'm overqualified for, I get turned down. I don't know what else to do. For now, I guess I'll just have to keep plugging away, but it's rough being so severely underemployed everything is out of my budget range and bills are always hard to pay on time, if at all. It's just all been downhill for the past three years, what with school and my condo and my mom getting cancer and my grandpap passing and my car crash and... well, you get the picture, somethings have not really worked out in my life too well as of late.
HOWEVER, a negative attitude is never going to accomplish anything, so I'm just going to vent and be done with it and look to see what opportunities I can hopefully grab up ahead.
ANYWAY, I want to hear from all of you, it's your turn:
1) One good thing.
2) One bad thing.
3) One job/school thing.
PS: I found most of the green outfit I'm putting together for a set shoot - I have no looking into photogs yet, but the theme is coming together well. I guess I'm lucky St. Patrick's Day is coming up and I can finally find some green underwear.
XOXO

Afterward, I will have no money in the bank.
JOB:
Umm... I got paid $35 for some graphic design work recently?

I can't stand being in the same room as my mother, I know what she really thinks about me and it make me sad.
The Job
A lot of changes are happening some for the better and other for the worse.
