Welp, I ended up getting an appointment with an organization.

Unfortunately it means waking up early and coming back early from my break, but oh well.

I really need to get over my social anxiety. I'm going to be really nervous when I go to this appointment.

Does anyone know any Chicago women's organizations?

I need to interview an organization for a class and I was supposed to turn in my proposal today but I got an extension because the organizations I contacted haven't responded. I contacted Women Employed and League of Women Voters.

I contacted Women Employed twice, by email and by phone. Email was over a week ago. Phone was...

Tough week this week. Loads of work to do. But I have easter break.

I can't decide if I want to go home Wednesday or Thursday, so you guys help me out by telling me which you think I should do:

1.) On Wednesday, my last class is canceled so I would be able to go home around 1:30. Obviously it would just generally be...

Soooooo I lost my voice again.

Kind of sucks because I need it for an assignment for Monday.

So the weather is supposed to be really nice this week and it is right now. It's beautiful and there isn't a cloud in the sky. I love spring. My favorite time of year is spring right when it starts to get into the mid 70's.

I did pretty damn well on my midterms. As far as I know:

HIST 391: A+ (100)
PLSC 102:...

I'm in a shitty, frustrated mood right now. I would like to cry but I hardly ever cry and so I won't.

I hate this. I don't want to go back to school. I'm tired and even though I do pretty well, I haven't met enough people or namely anyone (besides my soon-to-be-roommate) that I could be close friends with. When I DO cry... I...

I'm starting to stress out about the whole job thing. I'm also sick now.

I feel like I'm looking for a summer job too early because there aren't many openings when I've looked. If I don't find a job, I'm fucked.

You know, I have to be honest... I'm really disappointed the Decemberists never said anything about the cranes.

Like, it actually upsets me. So many people put a lot of time, money, and effort into this. Especially me. I spent a LOT of time putting them together, finding a box, lugging them home with me during winter break so I could send them. It cost...

Man, I'm excited. I get to go home tomorrow for break. I'll be home by 5:30.

I get to relax, eat free food that doesn't suck, sleep past 8, etc.

It sucks a bit since no one else has break, but I do get to see my best friends the Saturday night before I go back. Which is good enough for me.

I'm feeling restless...

Now that I'm done doing the work I have to do tonight, I'm bored and feeling restless.

The weather is crazy. It sleeted and now it's been snowing in huge flakes. I wanted to walk to the beach and take pictures but no one would do that with me. Or could, for that matter, since most people were busy.

I dyed my hair last week....

So I don't really give a shit about the Oscars, but I was really happy Glen and Marketa won best song. They deserved it.

That's all.

I don't know what the hell is wrong with my roommate but she smells disgusting and so does her basket of laundry. Maybe it's the whole rewearing clothes and not brushing her teeth. And eating really greasy food. Ugh.

Anyway... I get to go home next weekend. I'm excited 'cause that means extra sleep and free food that doesn't suck.

I went to this restaurant...
